Gloves negatively affect our dexterity with guns. No doubt! However, in “modern times,” gloves are mandatory in many circumstances.
The perfect pistol for carry in July may be unusable in January when we are forced to wear gloves due to the cold. Short grips like those on a G26, G42 or G43, while fine in bare hands, often don’t do well in gloved hands. Conversely, “normal-sized” grips (G48) work either way!
Techniques and equipment that may be fine while you’re comfortably standing upright at an indoor range or even at an outdoor range during warm/mild weather with no wind may fail when called upon as you find yourself in a cold, muddy ditch at night, in the rain, with bullets whizzing by your ears!
