kurtm Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Several hand soaps I have tried leave my hands too dry making it very hard to hold shotgun shells.....I like to call it dry slick! I have tried moisturizing soaps and they seem to have an oily residue that is almost as bad as "dry slick". What is the best 3-gun hand soap that leaves your hands not too dry, but not soaking in grease? What soap do the pros recommend? What are some of the personal hygiene products that you see on the pro's shirts? Anything will help, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

outerlimits Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Kurt- Try a 50/50 mixture of Hoppe's no. 9 and weapon shield grease. Smells great too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flatland Shooter Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 What are some of the personal hygiene products that you see on the pro's shirts? I think I may have seen some Irish Spring patches at the last 3GN Regional. But then they may own a tavern or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryan 45 Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Unfortunately many of the shooters that need to see and understand this sort of tongue in cheek humor do not frequent this forum, but only find themselves immersed in the Book of Faces.

Stlhead Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 It is about time someone had the balls to bring up this topic. Dirty meat hooks are not only unsightly, but not hygienic. Shooting can leave lead and other dangerous deposits on our hands and it is important that we wash those nasty things off. I have found that the best product to use is dawn dishwashing detergent. I prefer the blue. It leaves my hands clean, but not stripped of moisture, and has a fresh clean scent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeEdwards Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) I'm pretty new here but even I know that tactical soap is the best. The real question is who makes the best competition belt compatible pouch for it. The rope seems to get hung up on gear as I mount and dismount it. I've been using a spare safariland AR mag pouch, but the retention sucks and I'm worried about a DQ if I drop the soap.

Stlhead Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Dropping the soap is far from a DQable offense. more like foreplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSwift Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 On a serious twist, I was shooting at a really nice range outside St. Louis and their bathroom (a real bathroom at the range house) had a special heavy-metal specific hand soap. I don't have a habit of licking the gunpowder and lead off my fingers but considering the range fee didn't strike me as high, it was a nice touch.

EaZeNuTZ33 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Soap? I prefer the taste of a little carbon and lead with my lunch at the range. I'll clean my hands during my monthly bath! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeltFed Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 They make a 3gun soap?!?! What's it called, where can I get it, and how much does it cost? How much time will it knock off a stage on average, and will it help my split times? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CZinZA Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I've tried that. But the blood from the one hand made it really tricky to hold the Dremel steady while doing the other. I guess I'm not really tactical. Perhaps I should wait for my beard to grow in Sent by Jedi mind control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
