| I just use a pair of matte black batting gloves. Not so much to protect from getting hit in the hands, but more to protect from scraping them over rocks and sticks and trees and stuff when I'm crawling around behind enemy lines. They do serve for a little protection from knuckle shots though, too. | |

| Just got a really expensive pair from Cabelas' (An out door/hunting place, very similar to Bass Pro) and I can't wait to use thm. Unfortunately I can't use them NOW, because I have a broken ankle and, for some reason, my docter saw fit to put me in a cast up to my KNEES.....er uh ANYWAYS, I love them, they're woodland camo with grips on the palm and fingers so my gun and other items won't slip around. I mainly use them for warmth and to protect my hands from thorns and scrapes on rocks etc. Because when im moving fast, I often grap crap quickly without looking so gloves are almost a neccesity. | |

| Good luck with your injury. I just use my friends old batting gloves. They help me grip the gun better, and keep my hands a little warm. I cut off the fingers so they just go to the knuckles. | |

| I definitely wear gloves. My hands don't like getting scratched up from hitting the ground hard or chewed up in briars. I usually wear some cheap hunting gloves from the Sporting goods shop. They're usually a couple of bucks for a pack of two or three, and come in a variety of camo patterns. | |

| I use UnderArmour ColdGear gloves.
I can't stand wearing bulky gloves, and these are very thin, yet because of the UnderArmour material, keep your hands warm. They also have little "grippies" on the palm and fingers, so they help you hold on to your gun. At $25/pair, they're a bit pricey compared to some. | |

| Im with djstasevich, Mechanix gloves are pretty good. They make all kinds now, but the basic ones will stop that BB from your skin ripping off your bones! If you want to get fancy & spend more money on some REAL nice ones, look to Paintball! Brands like JT, Empire, Redz, Evil, etc THey are all good & padded, molded to your hand when its in the position it will be in when your holding a gun & made for what we do! I got my eye on a black & blue pair of '08 JT gloves myself | |

| "Watch your language" yes I use gloves. I use them for comfort and protection. I HIGHLY SUGGEST the Wells Lamont brand I can't name the exact type I use they're black and made of a nylon like material and the grips area soft leather/seude kind of but they have velcro straps and are the best gloves I've ever bought. Only $15 at Walmart and llike I said I highly suggest them. | |

| Ive only used gloves once and it was in the winter just becuase my hands were cold. Ive always wondered about them though do they really help you grip your gun better. Like if you hold the gun with them on and then take them off and hold the gun can you notice a differnce? | |

| it depends but If your guns slippery that a different problem. They tend to help and they protect your hands not to mention hide your hands if your like me and use a ghillie . nothing good about a bush with hands sticking out makes them a target. | |

| Fingerless gloves all the way! They look cool and also you wont hurt your hands as much if your constantly dropping to the ground. | |

| How would you hurt your hands dropping to the ground with fingered gloves? NO Don't go with fingerless I've had my finger practically shredded by not having my hand covered when it was shot | |

| I use fingerless because its easier to get your finger on the trigger on my guns and ive only been shot in the finger once or twice. And I didnt mean it would hurt using fingered gloves I meant using no gloves at all sorry. | |

| I just use some black batting gloves. They don't offer much in the way of warmth or BB protection, but they are mostly just to keep me from shredding my hands on brush and for stealth. Any recommendations on which gloves would offer some BB protection for a good price? | |
