People are usually under the impression that shooting gloves are supposed to only help you while you are shooting. While this is partially true there are many other reasons it is good to have these types of gloves not only in a combat situation, but in many other situations. A person who is unable to use his or her hands is going to be in trouble not only from the enemy, but be unable to adequately defend themselves or anybody else. This is why gloves that are made for shooting are also made in ways to protect the hands of the wearer from other things.

Franklin Glove produces some great styles of gloves that are great for shooting and many other things. The Uniforce Tactical glove is great because it is made of a high quality leather that is strong enough to be able to resist damage, but not so strong as to be unable to be moved when on the hands. Even better is the fact that underneath of this incredible quality leather is another layer of something even stronger; Kevlar. This helps protect the hands of the wearer from things such as knives, rocks, and even the odd occurrence of a misfire that perhaps blows the gun up, or damages it. Having a Kevlar coating under a leather shell will keep your hands safe from the majority of the damage from many things.

The right type of gloves that are made for shooting will also feature strong resistances to the elements such as heat and cold, but not cause your hands to overheat inside or lose circulation. A cut resistant shell will keep the hands safe when climbing rocks or going over sharp edges on a building or destroyed vehicle, but also allow a safe grip on a weapon. The etched hand pads of many combat style gloves will allow the perfect grip for shooting a gun and will make the off chance of water causing you to slip when aiming a thing of the past. A trigger finger cut on most gloves that are made for shooting also makes a huge difference as it always pays to have the best possible sense of touch on a trigger when shooting. These types of gloves can be short or long cuff depending on what the user wishes, but the cuff should always be snug against the skin without being too tight.
