Like Hammergun I tried the slip on leather hand guard and did not like it. Although I did find a weighted hand guard useful on a very barrel light 16; I got rid of the gun.

I regularly wear a Orvis upland glove on my left hand whether hunting or shooting clays year round. When cold I use the thin gloves on both hands; when very cold I sometimes wear a fleece mitten over the left hand glove.

Ultimately everyone is different and shooters need to experiment with what works best for them.
