CCW Glove Options

[Infinite Jester]

So this will be my first winter of carrying concealed. I've been looking around for some winter gloves. Does anyone have any personal experience with what might be a decent glove that is warm, yet provides the ability to operate inside a trigger guard?

Check out the underarmour UA extreme cold gloves, there about $34.00 for the pair,
but they allow you to get your finger on the trigger without being bulky.Hope this helps,
good luck.

Don't have specific experience with a particular glove, but I would suggest lots of training with whatever you go with. The tactile sensation of squeezing a trigger with gloves on is quite a bit different than that of using your naked finger. You also may be changing the way you get your finger into the trigger guard; when I started carrying a snubby, I had to learn to get my finger in the trigger guard smoothly - whether it's the size of my hands or the geometry of the gun, it took some adjustment when drawing in haste to get the trigger finger into the trigger guard successfully every time.

i don"t where gloves very often. But when I do, I where mehcanix....

Good point Pernox. I would imagine the thinner the material the better. There's plenty of tacticool gloves out there, but I don't imagine they offer much warmth.

Yep these work great, they're not the warmest but they'll do the trick.

I usually where Nomex tanker/flight gloves. Thin and does the trick.

I used regular Hatch search gloves until they wore out. I'm currently using UA 'tacticool' gloves, but they bunch up more than the Hatch did. I'd stay away from online buying unless you know for sure. Make sure they don't bunch up on the part of the hand on the little finger side of your wrist (sorry for the odd sentence). My UA gloves interfere with my grip, not sure if they just need to be broken in more or a bad design for my hands.

I've never used them specifically for shooting, but these immediately came to mind. You can even use your smartphone with them on.

ETA: also these probably won't keep you warm past a certain temp, they're thin.

I bought a pair of these last year for my wife, and she loves them. The phone option is great too.

Ive also got a pair of these but as the description says theyre a liner glove so theyll only keep you so warm.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Now I've got to narrow it down.
