I purchased a really good pair of Hatch gloves on the advice of a really good shooter - these ones are Kevlar lined and can resist cuts and needle sticks (which is why he wears them), but they only come up to the wrist, so they don't bump into a watch or get tangled up in a shirt cuff

they are a pain in the ass to put on because they're tight, but they work

PIG Gloves.

My son and I together took his first Carbine class this weekend. the Instructor mentioned the crazy dexterity of the PIG gloves and highly recommended them. Not a glove that will last years but will work well in hard use for a year. Then replace.

Ill be acquiring a pair.

If you like Mechanics gloves HF has them for under $6

as to the PIG gloves, there are several models

Original/Gen 1 on sale
Alpha
Alpha +
Delta
Delta +

Any particular differences in them?

I had to slip on a shooting glove recently as I shot a .357 snubnose that I hadn't shot in quite a while. Just on my strong hand, until I got used to the pain.

It's an older Blackhawk glove. I don't think it's available any more, but really it just looks like a good quality leather driving glove. It provided a small amount of cushioning without too much loss of sensitivity.

I did have to remove it, though, when I used the 100-yard range. Not enough sensitivity at that distance. I suppose I could cut the trigger finger off at some point if I have to, which would help.

I wear the PIG gloves for all of my moderate temp hunting trips. They have excellent dexterity and do a great job protecting your hands from the thicket.

I don't normally wear them for shooting but I have used the PIG gloves during carbine classes where your hands can get a bit torn up from lots of malfunction drills, etc.

I also use PIG gloves, but strictly for winter shooting when my fingers start to get numb from cold. They're the only gloves I've found that are good enough to tie my shoes with and also feel the trigger extremely well.

Your link doesn't go to any gloves......

Just retried it and it did go to gloves.

The best thing I've found, if staying warm isn't as much a factor, is leather golf gloves. They come in 1/4 sizes, allowing a good fit, and provide good tactile feedback. You can also get left and right gloves in the same size. They were suggested by an ex DEA agent, who said they worked well if you didn't want to leave fingerprints. I find they are good for playing golf as well.

Another user of Golf Gloves here, in my case Callaway. I tell people that they are Callaway Shooting Gloves. BTW, the need is quite real. Spend some time shooting a Side by Side shotgun in an antique Skeet event and you'll learn quite quickly that those tiny forearms don't to anything to protect your hand from hot barrels.

My current favorites for shooting when I’m not concerned about a higher level of protection are Direct Action light gloves.

I started wearing gloves routinely when shooting when my first P320 stung my trigger finger during long sessions, and now I wear them even when not really required to help retain my proficiency with gloves if they are necessary.

My gloves must offer a high level of dexterity and good feel of the gun and trigger. The DA gloves do that. I do a lot of shooting in cold weather they’re also surprisingly effective for keeping my hands warm for short periods. I wore PIG gloves for a long time before discovering the Direct Action gloves, but I found they weren’t very durable and the nonslip appliques came off easily. I’m not sure about the durability of the DA gloves because I haven’t been using them as long, but they don’t show any signs of wear yet.

Another vote for Direct Action gloves. Sturdy yet thin allowing for great dexterity. Not made for warmth, though. I prefer the goat skin palm and fingers over the synthetic leather. I can pick up a coin and tie my shoes while wearing them. I have tried PIG gloves and like them as well.

After surgery on my left hand, I ended up with no grip and one finger totally numb. I wanted a tight fitting glove with the ability to feel through it. I bought Cooper Fit gloves (as seen on tv) at Wally World, the ones with the finger tips open. The surface has a gripping material that works great and a tight fit for support. I'm on my third pair. Thing is, I toss out the right hand glove as I have no use for it.
