Does anybody use the KISA armguard that 3Rivers sells?  I'm thinking of getting one.  Any opinions would be welcome.  Thanks.

I have been looking at that one also!

Many are pleased with their Kisa.

My experience has not been so enlightening as the armguard comes loose after a handfull of shots. The actual developer of the Kisa proposed utilizing mink oil inside the stalls and the leather draw tie. Searched often- on and off for nearly a year until I was succesful in locating some mink oil. The results were still the same.

Do believe if the leather washer was replaced wih a more secure keeper, then the arm guard would work for me.

As previously noted: there are many who have been quite satisfied.

I have one that's fairly new so I havent had a problem yet but I could see how that could happen. Took just a bit to get used to and somewhat broken in. It's pretty easy to deal with and with just a few tugs on the strings it's secure. I do wear it slightly loose.

I have an older one. My only con is the extra strings when it is pulled tight. I have more than my share of hair on my arms and the strings pull it when I want to tuck those strings in. So I only use it when I wear long sleeves .
The arm guard is made to out last the owner. That is a plus because I like well made accessories . I have had no issues with the leather gasket . Maybe a new one can be bought from the new maker?

Thank you all for your input.
