Handguard or gloves?

[Gary Laudermilch]

A beaver tail forend solves the problem. When I searched for a dedicated clays repro I was pretty emphatic about having a bt. It only took me 5 years to find the right gun. Buying a pair of gloves is certainly quicker.

When shooting in the warmer months the barrels get so hot in one round of 5-stand that they will burn you. I've used LL Bean gloves for years. They are thin enough for dexterity but are tough as nails. I use them for early season hunting and they shed multi-flora rose quite well and they stand up to several years of use.
