Contents of the package<\/h1>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

The gloves GFC Tactical HDR black in an unopened condition. The gloves are attached on a cardboard piece for hang in a shop and a piece of paper with information about the material Schoeller Keprotec with Kevlar is attached in one glove.<\/p>\n

Appearance and functions<\/h1>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

The glove from above. Except the\u00a0hard knuckle protection (more about that below) most of the material consists of spandex.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

The glove over the palm. The material on the inside is\u00a0Synthetic leather and reinforced with the thumb and the fingers.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

The\u00a0hard knuckle protection is made of the material Schoeller Keprotec with Kevlar. According to the included paper about the material this material is very abrasion and tear resistant, heat resistant and water-, dirt- and oil- resistant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"To<\/a><\/td>\n\"To<\/a><\/td>\n\"Reinforced<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

To fulfill the\u00a0hard knuckle protection function you have to turning your fingers against the palm. Below the palm it’s reinforced.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

The material on the top is spandex and synthetic leather in the bottom. In the picture you see the thumb but on the other fingers there is\u00a0stretch fabric between.<\/p>\n

\"Around<\/a><\/p>\n

Around the wrist the material is neoprene and it’s attached with velcro.<\/p>\n

Field test<\/h1>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

The gloves was for example tested during a hiking in the Swedish mountains. The Kebnekaise massif in the backgroud which is Swedish largest mountain.<\/p>\n

\"Holding<\/a><\/p>\n

Holding a gun. The gloves grip is good and that item you hold will not slip away.<\/p>\n

About wet so will the gloves reject water if it’s miner amounts during short time but then they absorb the material that, except the\u00a0hard knuckle protections part.<\/p>\n

The Heavy Duty Ready gloves are available in the sizes S, M, L and XL. According to Gunfire the sizes are similar to Mechanix gloves so to find out which size will fit best for you, you can use a size chart from them. In this test the size Large is tested.<\/p>\n

\"Broken<\/a><\/p>\n

Without to take in hard in the neoprene material when putting on the gloves on the hands the seam broken on both gloves on the same places. The hole can be seen in the picture above.<\/p>\n

The neoprene material should be reinforced and have some kind of ripstop because the hole become larger and larger every time. Gunfire have forward this to its supplier of this gloves to improve that.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/h1>\n

The tactical gloves Heavy Duty Ready Black from GFC Tactical (Gunfire) looks good, fits well on the hands and it’s almost that you don’t thinking that you have them on you. The synthetic leather on the flat do that the friction is high and that you have in your hands (airsoft gun, magazine etc) don’t risk to slip out.
\nIt’s alarming that both gloves broke at the same place but it’s very good that Gunfire have taken the problems seriously and forward this problem to its supplier so they will probably improve this part. Except that nothing else has broken yet.<\/p>\n

If you are looking for tactical gloves with\u00a0hard knuckle protections this model from GFC Tactical HDR Shield a good choice.<\/p>\n

In this test we have not compared this model to other glove models from the Heavy Duty Ready series or with other brands available on the market, so our opinions are based entirely on this product.<\/p>\n

In Gunfire’s own webshop the gloves cost \u20ac 16.83 exkluding the shipping cost.<\/p>\n
