Default Quick stealth tip

Hey guys, I just thought of this idea and figured I would let you know. It's random and maybe people already use it. I just thought about how loud some of my gear is when I bump it with something. Like buckles and ends of straps(like of hunter safety system harnesses. So what I do now is put one of those sweat bands that you put on your arm for sports, over the buckles and it works great. Jut wanted to let you guys know.

Noise reduction can be a big benefit. I've had them bolt when my open zipper rubs against itself. I've had them bolt when I lay my rifle on the rail in a shooting tower. Even just taking the safety off can get iffy.

You may get away with making some noise, it depends on whether they associate the noise with danger or not. If they hadn't already smelled you and bolted, any strange unnatural sound is subject to set them off.

I use cut up old bicycle tire inner tubes and sometimes electrical tape.
