I live in sask,the only way anything will get in my barrel is if I leave my trucks sun roof open.

Hmmmmmm .... I learned something new .... I need to protect my gun from sunlight ....
I mean, what else could come through an open sun roof in Sask .... and where you can watch your dog run away for 3 days ....



(just kidding)

Finger cots, balloons, rubber glove fingers etc are more than useless. If your hunting style keeps them in place you don’t need them.

Not all of us feel the need to do tactical rolls into shooting positions

Nobody is tactical rolling, but we are getting out of the lawn chair.

I squeeze aluminum foil around the muzzle..it stays on and is visible enough that you can't miss it before you shoot.

Sounds like a recipe for galvanic corrosion. Just use electrical tape.

While I agree that electrical tape is best, it seems a stretch to bring up corrosion related to foil that would only be on there for a few hours, when so many guns have aluminum and steel mated together already...

Why is this so hard?

If you don't like tape you can always get one of these fancy European doodads. But you can't shoot through it.

And this is nice.

Finger domes, assorted pack to accommodate different girths, roll em on your barrel like you would a ##### condom, protect your barrel from the dreaded mud like you would if you are a lucky man with a dirty lady and don't want mud on your helmet.

Wrap in the direction of the rifling, duh.

Is that the same for metric calibres? Don't let me down, interwebz.

Hahahaha, what a mental image that is! Too funny.

I have always taped the muzzle of a muzzleloader, but never a rifle. Then on opening day of deer season last year I wiped-out while walking through a big mud hole and jammed the muzzle of my rifle right into the goop. It required a walk back to the camp to get a cleaning rod to clear and clean the bore. I am not sure if tape would have kept the firm mud out of the barrel, but it sure would have been better than not having it at all. WK

It works for my middle finger...should work for a barrel!
