The thumb on Velocity Systems trigger gloves shit the bed and tore wide open. They lasted four range days. I have sent them an email, but not sure they are durable enough for hard use. FYI/YMMV and all that.

Mike - not your issue and I hope I didn't make that sound like VS wont stadn behind their product, I'm sure they will. It was more to the point of Bronsons post that they dont stand up well. I was hoping for six months, which would equate to about a dozen range days.

Of the four days I wore them, they were all days when I was teaching so I wasn't hammering them. I like the way they fit and feel, but they are very thin. Maybe I just need to cut my thumbnails more often?

No worries, you are correct VS is always top shelf when it comes to CS. We have such a good relationship with them I try to help them out when I can to head off issues. I feel bad that the gloves humped the bunk right after we shipped them to you.

Yeah, I was quite disappointed with the overall thickness and build quality. If I can destroy a set of Oakley gloves in one NTC rotation... these likely wouldn't last a few trips to the range. If your working with full rails like the M4 7 inch or DD RIS II rails.

I love the feel of them, its pretty thin and I'd feel comfy shooting a precision rifle in them.

For a hard use glove, I really like the Arc FR Assault Gloves.

I have Overlords, they have taken a beating over the years. But I hate gloves, always feel too bulky for me. The VS gloves are awesome, but not if they last less than a week. Damn shame.
