The gloves I use are bright light blue - yours are kind of like camo - they blend in with the barrel. I'm actually a little jealous
It does work very well, though.

I've had to dump various crap out of barrels too...a couple years ago I found that Birchwood Casey makes little black Hobbit rubbers, officially called "barrel cots", 20 to a pack, for a couple bucks. They'll fit over just about any muzzle, I've even managed to just barely coax them over a 12 gauge before. There's one over my .450b Izzy flash hider right now. Midway sells them, and I'm sure lots of others do too...

here you go...
http://www.uline.com/BL_1016/Latex-Fing ... 4Aod9yLsfQnot too bad on price, i would not suggest getting any of the heavy duty ones, id go for medimum to light weight, makes iteasier for the rnd to punch through. Ive been using them for a long time, since i was a kid. My mother was a nurse and she thought we could use them as small water ballons (that didnt work too well)... i noticed they fit over my barrel pretty well and thats what i used them for. I only used them when the weather was bad, yes i got laughed at too, but screw 'em, i didnt want anything getting in my barrel.
and here is another site.
