Concealed carry in cold weather?

[zeke]

Why would anyone go out in the cold?

cause am not gonna stay in the house all day/week/month/winter. Course there are exceptions when it gets really cold, starting around -20 f.

Wear heated gloves and practice with them.

I bought some for use on the motorcycle a couple years back and this year bought my wife a pair for walking the dog. She laughed when I used mine walking the dog until she got a pair.

Ours are made by fieldsheer, they are the rechargeable version with Bluetooth temp control.

They are not cheap but what is the exact dollar value of your life?

Big over coat with big pockets .

Ungloved hand grips model 58 S&W (or revolver of your choice) , hand and gun go in big pocket .

When needed, remove hand/ revolver from pocket and ... do whatever needs to be done !

Wear a glove on the other hand .
Buy a cat ... they are smart enough to walk themselves and come home .

We were stationed in North Carolina and took our boat out on New Years Day, it was 80 degrees. Called my Father-In-Law to wish them a Happy New Year. Ask him what the temperature was there in Manitowoc. He told me "with the chill factor it is -56 degrees". I told him what we had done that day and what the temp was, his response was more or less F.U. in a joking way.

Either slim tight fittings gloves that you practice with and can draw and shoot well while wearing; or loose fitting bulky gloves you can shake off very quickly.

please believe i weigh the advantages of warmer weather against the current benefits. So far the cost, life time membership of outdoor range 5 minutes away, cost of living and extremely good motorcicle roads are winning out.

Our range has separate 22, pistol, 100 yd rifle, trap and skeet and aux long range (600 yds). And for me, it's free. There is a decent indoor 25 yd range 25 miles south.
