Thanks for the suggestions; £55 for one glove is a bit steep for me, especially as the rifle only cost £100! (Plus some of my priceless talent ).

The rigger/framer/carpenter gloves look like a possible option, but they all seem to be large, or nearly as much as a proper glove...???

Anyway, what are people's thoughts on the hamster idea as an alternative to get the 'stock lift' when standing? (I have lots of bits of wood in me shed! )

Cheers,

Mark.
