Tarantula Flex Foam Vented
Excellent
Ranked #2 of 6 arm guards
$11.99
The Tarantula Flex Foam is the value pick for anyone who wants a little more than bare plastic — a contoured internal shell wrapped in molded flex foam, vented, held on by two quick-release straps, for twelve bucks. The foam conforms to the forearm and the vents keep it cool on a summer range. It's Mossy Oak camo only, which reads hunting more than target, but it protects the same either way.
Standout feature: Contoured vented foam with quick-release straps at $12 — comfort above its price.
