Bought these specifically for carbine use. They lasted only three courses and then literally came apart at the seams. Very poor sewing. I do not recommend for serious work.

Bought these for a hunt in Africa. They were excellent for its purpose. Protects your hands during all the crawling. Excellent for stalking in the jess. They got soiled on the journey back when a bottle of Amarula broke. I had to wash them and then the material looks rather worn. I hand washed them in cold water as per instructions. Definitely recommend the product as they are great to use.

Best glove for the money. However, the sewing was off on the index finger of one glove. Optics planet quickly replaced it. Now satisfied.

Kevlar knuckles would be nice. There is a combat version with the "protective" kevlar knuckles, but the price goes up. Overall, great duty gloves.

As with any article of clothing, it's very hard to guess what the proper fit for yourself will be. I ordered a large set of these gloves; they were tight but I preferred that for shooting purposes. Excellent quality!

Amazing piece of tactical hardware. I appreciate how my fingers are still usable for things like turning pages of books, utilizing various zipper and pocket lids, use pen, even a cell-phone. To a non-active military person, this glove is still amazingly useful and purposeful. The second-to-warzone test environment: New York. So far, so good.

Pros:  Fire retardant gloves with the best dexterity I've seen thus far. Price works out to be worth it in performance. Better to cry and buy once and have something nice that will last a little while.
Cons:  Very expensive.
Would recommend:  yes

I have found these gloves to allow much better dexterity and trigger manipulation than other nomex gloves on the market. You get what you pay for as far as comfort is concerned. These are plenty durable for most people's purposes. Just know that they are not rappel gloves, and if you wear them every single day for a year (i.e. Afghanistan) you will wear through them.
