I ordered a 590 special purpose and put 200 bucks down...4 months now and no shotgun...seems like everything tactical is backordered.
Reason 784 why I like Alberta.....I bought my 590A1 at canadian tire.
Heat Shield........what do you need a heat shield for?![]()
It's funny I always thought that the heat shields were just to look tacticool and not practical but when I shot the Napanee shotgun shoot with over 130 rounds I kept burning my hand when I was loading my tube.![]()
Found one at Epps and bought it yesterday...came with a Ontario cutlery bayonet. They have one more in stock.

Why are you grabbing the barrel for reloads......I shot the same match....my hands never touched the barrel!
Don't forget to add on;
A John Wayne Swagger,
A Clint Eastwood teeth clenched talk and squinting eyes,
and a Chuck Norris beard would help tremendously![]()

Quite a few times when I turned the shotgun I would brush my hand on the barrel while I was loading the shells. Geoff the president of the club did it a couple of times while I was SOing him as well. I promised not to discuss his girly scream but I can 't help it. LOL I have watched pro 3-gun guys on WildTV reload the same as I do. Weren't you one of the guys from London wearing gloves or are the gloves for something completely different? I would be interested in some pointers if you have any as my time was horrible.
Nope don't wear gloves....... as a general rule. Yep, guilty as charged, part of the London/EESA Crew. Glad the Vid helped. All I can say, is that the more time you can keep your strong hand on the shotgun, the faster your reloads, aka. times will be.
There is absolutely no time that you need to contact the barrel of the shotgun during a reload, from many different methods.......therefore, a heat shield is added weight, and just there to make the user feel special in that naughty place.......not that there is anything wrong with thatLOL
