When you move metal and optics in and out of storage or transit, you need protection that’s simple, reliable, and won’t fail you when it matters. We approach gear the way operators do: practical, durable, and honest about what works. For rifles and tactical platforms that carry optics or run bare tubes, an effective sock-style protector is often the best first line of defense against corrosion and cosmetic damage.
ALLEN Pride Six
The ALLEN Pride Six is a silicone-treated knit gun sock designed specifically to fit both scoped and non-scoped tactical firearms. Built by Allen Company Inc and available in various model sizes, this gun sock brings rust protection, dust resistance, and scratch prevention in a compact, affordable package priced at $14.39.

What makes the ALLEN Pride Six effective?
This gun sock uses a silicone-impregnated knit that works two ways: the knit fabric provides a snug, flexible fit around barrels, receivers, and optics while the silicone treatment creates a thin, non-greasy barrier that helps repel moisture and reduce surface oxidation. For tactical platforms, that combination is ideal — the sock conforms to scopes, muzzle devices, and rail attachments without bunching or pinching delicate finishes.
Rust, pitting, and corrosion mitigation
Silicone molecules form a hydrophobic layer that discourages water contact with metal surfaces. In storage, that layer reduces condensation-related risk and slows the electrochemical processes that lead to pitting and rust. The ALLEN Pride Six is designed with this in mind: slip it over a scoped rifle or bare tube and you’re giving the metal and finish an extra layer of defense without adding bulk or chemical residue.
Protection from physical wear
Beyond corrosion control, the knit fabric cushions rifles and optics against dings and scratches that happen during transit or while items are tucked into a safe. The flexible weave prevents abrasive contact between metal-on-metal or metal-on-hard-surface incidents inside cases or racks, making the ALLEN Pride Six an easy addition to any kit bag.
Fit, compatibility, and available sizes
Allen lists the model as Various, which is a practical advantage: different firearms and optic combinations need different lengths and diameters. The knit stretch and the silicone finish mean a single size can accommodate a surprising range of scoped and non-scoped tactical firearms, but if you’re running a particularly long chassis or oversized optic, choosing from the available sizes matters. For most modern precision or AR-style rifles, the Pride Six will slide on and off easily while maintaining a secure fit.

How to use the gun sock—best practices from the range and the armory
Use these simple routines to get the most out of the ALLEN Pride Six:
Before storage
Run a clean, lightly oiled cloth over metal surfaces after a proper cleaning. The gun sock is not a replacement for maintenance, but it does supplement protection. Slide the sock over the firearm, ensuring the muzzle and butt are covered to reduce dust ingress.
During travel
When packing a rifle into a hard case or soft bag, leave the gun sock on to prevent contact scratches and to help control internal condensation. The thin profile preserves space and prevents pressure points against optics and controls.
Safehouse and long-term storage
For long-term stowage, pair the gun sock with a humidity-controlled safe or desiccant packs. The silicone treatment helps, but a climate-stable environment is still the best defense for long-term preservation.
