I have a Diamond D Leather Guides Choice for my Ruger Redhawk w 5.5" barrel. Have worn it fishing, kayaking, going up a tree with a climber and my new saddle. No problems with loading my muzzleloader or cocking my crossbow. Don't have an issue shooting any of my rifles or shotguns while wearing it. I don't shoot a bow, so I can't tell you how it works with that. But it was well worth the $175.00 I spent on it. I was so impressed with it I bought one for my Springfield V16 Longslide and am buying one for my Redhawk w 4.2" barrel.
