    I believe Past shooting gloves have been discontinued.

    Hadn't heard the Past Gloves had been discontinued.
    Guess I'll keep a close eye on my pair.
    I HATE auto-correct

    Happiness is a Warm GUN & more ammo to shoot in it.

    My Experience and My Opinion, are just that, Mine.

    Titleist golf gloves. Left for right handed, Right for left. Golf Mart like places, not next to the golf course, usually have good prices. If you're right handed larger stores have a better selection as you're looking for a left handers glove. LOL

    Hello everyone...this is my first post.

    Here's a link from Mid-South Shooters supply.

    https://www.midsouthshooterssupply.c...hooting+gloves

    I haven't needed gloves since I started loading my own 44 mag cartridges. I like a nice boom and just enough recoil to be exciting, while still being comfortable for my right hand.

    Fish4Bugs, have 3 S&W 44 specials. 624 with 6.5" barrel, 4"bbld 24-3 and a 24-3 with 3" barrel. Don't have a 44 mold yet so been shooting WW 200 grain silver tips and they are so downloaded it ain't funny. When I shoot the 624 with the 6.5" bbl it feels like a 38 shooting wadcutters. Would like something with a little more oopmh. Frank

    I got my PAST gloves in the late 80's. The one I got had the right hand padding in the palm and the left was padded on the back to use your left hand as a rest and not scrub up your knuckles.

    I got them after my two middle fingers would go numb shooting heavy loads in a .357 BH. For grips Hogue grips have been the best and haven't used the gloves after putting them on, I have them on a security six also.

    I have arthritis in both hands but more in the right and the Hogue's let me keep shooting longer before I'm sorry.

    Shoot a few rounds of 375 win in a TC and that 44 mag will seem real tame.

    DCP asked if I could post a pic. off the gloves I have so here they are. The right one, the palm is padded but the back is not. The back of the left is padded but the palm is not.

    They do change the way the grip on the gun feel but for target shooting off the bench you can work around it . It makes them feel a bit bigger . The padding on the back is kind of nice when shooting off a hard or rough bench.

    I should add that the padding on the palm is the thickest at the base of the tumb about where your "life line" is.

    I have used golf gloves/batting gloves. Mechanic gloves work ok too. Ultimately I discovered Hogue rubber grips. Ugly as sin, I hate the way they look and I miss my wood grips but they work, and I no longer need gloves.
    And it's not just for the "bear loads" (because I don't do that a lot) but even a good range session of 44 specials eventually started digging into my hand. Those grips solved that problem entirely.

    I was shooting my Bisley 454 and Bisley 480, it became a bit uncomfortable, I was going to quit, so..... I had a pair of work gloves in the back of my car, what a difference! This is what I use now. I have the large size, they fit skin-tight on my hand. For $7+ dollars, they are well worth it. I think the link shows the large size.

    I also have a pair of Pasts purchased in the 90's. I baby them and they still work great. Padding on mine is as pictured.

    And they also say they are discontinued.

    Sorry didn't see that part. As tight as thy are I don't think you will get them on before the bear gets you.
