That's a funny question, or maybe it's the answer that's odd.

I had to think about this for a while. I thought I used gloves for doubles. Then I thought maybe I used gloves for case-colored guns. But finally I realized that I wear gloves when handling guns with long trigger guard tangs. That pretty much covers all the better guns I have, aside from a Perazzi. It is not an conscious thing, but rather just the way it works out.

I use those Bob Allen mesh jobs when it's hot, and throw them in the washer at the end of the day. In cooler weather I wear Bob Allen leather gloves that I bought at the Grand in Vandalia.
