Defanged Cobra???

[Will0W783]

I got one of the last pairs of Hercules NSR gauntlet gloves. These are specifically needlestick resistant and have a pierce protection rating of 5. They are also puncture resistant and tear resistant. They were on closeout when I bought them 3 years ago though, so I do not think they are manufactured anymore. You can get the NSR's as a shorter glove but you would then have to buy the gauntlet arm protectors separately. I can absolutely attest to the level of protection that these gloves provide, as the first thing I did when they arrived was stick water-filled rubber gloves inside them and coax all of my vipers to bite them. No one got through them. When I recently bought my Gaboons, I tested the gloves on them (with rubber glove dummies inside) and found that the Gaboons could not pierce the gloves.
