Quick First Look at FX Wildcat MKIII Neoprene Air Tube Cover

Wouldn't you know it, same day I break down the Wildcat MKIII for a return to FX for warranty work, the neoprene tube cover, expected 12/15, from England, shows up. I just couldn't resist trying it on and presenting to AGN. First impression, this thing is just awesome, perfect fit, easy on/off, but, at same time. firmly and securely in place. The inner edge (closest to stock) is raw cut neoprene, while the outer edge is fully sewn, so it snugs around gauge. The stitching that holds the neoprene "tube" together leaves raw ends inside the center, so not visible, but does cause slight bulge on outside of cover. I'm convinced bulge will fit easily between shroud and air tube, but also can be used on bottom of air tube for additional cushion. The bulge is so slight, it's hard to see, but you can feel it. 

Please note the price on eBay I stated in original post, $21.XX, was the English equivalent, my credit card was charged $28.87 (Shipping included.) In my mind this product is exactly what I'd hoped for, looks great while protecting the easily scratched finish. 

Please search my recent post, "FX Wildcat III-Neoprene Air Tube Cover," for additional information. Thanks,

Sorry, I'm not that good on posting links, but here's the info. EBay seller, hawksoutdoorsupplies, made this, at my request. On eBay, search "FX Wildcat Cylinder Cover in Black or Camo. Pictures and measurements found there, if you scroll down page. I'm just blown away how exactly right this is, just what I wanted it to be. I'll do full product review when Wildcat returns in about a month.
