Considering going back to an armboard or at least having one available for some competitions. I've used Sunrise before but recently saw the Sun and Shadow one. Anyone own both and can give a comparison?
Precision Rifle Gear Sun and Shadow Big Data Armband vs Sunrise Tactical Armband
- Thread starter USMC22
- Start date
I have both and have used both, currently using the sun and shadow. Truly it’ll come down to preference. I like the board better on the Sunrise tactical but like the stretch bands better on the Shawdow. If the sunrise tac had the same arm bands as the shadow it would be perfect for me. Either one will work.
UA Quarterback sleeve >
I have the Sunrise and while very well built and better quality than the UA, it always wants to rotate on my arm, slide down to my wrist, etc. The UA sleeve, while not as nice, actually stays put where I want it and that matters a ton to me. Also cheap enough to dedicate one to each rifle.
Honestly not worried about durability, I used the Cutter version of the UA sleeve in high school football. Our offense ran off of them and they held up well over several seasons, including most days practicing. Easily saw more hard use in 4 months of the season than most shooters will ever need in their lifetime (myself included). My offense in college didn't use them, but turn on most any game and they are being used to great effect.

This right here ^^^...I've used most of these arm band/wrist couch's over the years and always go back to the UA or UA type wrist couch's....the SR the Shadow and all the other ones I've tried with the straps always rotate and slide down my arm.
