I like having my fingertips protected, even in the heat. If not, during a training course your fingers will be raw, if not bleeding by the end of the day. Or, maybe I'm just getting soft is all.
Weird. I've done five 8 hr courses no gloves. One had a wrestle for retention the first 1/2 hr.
never shot with a glove on .....take that back, sometimes dead of winter I use $5 Army surplus wool glove liners and that is just because the metal on the rifle gets so cold.
I have some .mil Nomex flight gloves in my flight helmet for work, they are real thin but tough and I can feel real good with them on.....bet those would work good but they go half way up your forearms lol
might have to try that someday if I get the needThose flight gloves are very nice and durable!
