Found a place selling these at something resembling a reasonable price. They also have them for other platforms.

I have seen these before, but I can't figure what they are used for.

:D

Why, to look cool, man! Gotta look cool, even if you're not. I mean, I look cool, no matter what I'm shooting, but I figured some of you guys might need some help in that area. I mean, I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'.... :cool:

Come around more often,we make the Fonz look square. I was just curious what real benefit they offered. They do look cool.

Dunno about benefits.... I have seen one site that claims they keep your hands away from the hot barrel. Reckon?

I have shot several matches with my Beretta, and the barrel never got warm to the touch. I guess a shroud is cheaper than a leather jacket and a motorcycle, if you want to look cool.;)
