Summer brings about its own issues for gun enthusiasts. We don’t like sweating while we shoot. Fogs glasses and makes ear muffs uncomfortable. I don’t like touching hot guns. I really don’t like sunburns.
Perhaps the hardest thing is that some CCW adjustments need to be made. For me the summer generally means a J-Frame. I have a hard time with a full size anything.
I would love to have the readers thoughts on the subject. Leave us a comment about how you beat the heat and still get to the range or carry when summer rolls around. The comment that strikes me the best (totally subjective because it is summer and I’m bored) wins a MCC hat and patch. They aren’t much but its something.
Pocket carry is just about all I do in the summer. Either a J-frame or a Kel Tec P3AT. As for keeping cool at the range in the summer, unless the range is in Alaska, forget about it. I just sweat in the summer.
As long as its not so cold that I can’t feel my hands, I prefer shooting in the cooler weather.
Congratulations!! You are the only person who reads this blog! I will get your hat to you. Thanks for reading and commenting.
