Cold weather concealed carry
I like the Head brand running gloves they sell at Costco. (Amazon and Walmart carry them too I think). They aren’t snow gloves and I wouldn’t wear them up Everest, but they are warm enough to wear around town walking around and are thin enough to disappear in your jacket pocket when you don’t need them. They are pretty low cost, fit tight and slim and do not add too much to your grip when you grab your gun. They also work great as a glove liner, where you can get a bigger insulated glove or mitten from another brand to layer over top if you are snowboarding or ice climbing. They also have smart phone functional fingers, which is a plus in this day and age.

Throw it over the berm! ETA - In all seriousness, JJ knows his stuff - he used to shoot with a bunch of us in Old Bridge at the Steel Comps before he went and it famous. If he says it, I believe it works safely.- Ocean County Purchases Range Facility in Little Egg Harbor

Looks like Ocean County just arranged to purchase a range in Little Egg Harbor Twp to turn into a training facility. I’m guessing it’s Shooters.- Getting an MOS optic on a Glock 26
Get the regular EPS. It comes with a plate for adapting it to then RMR Footprint.- Getting an MOS optic on a Glock 26
I’ve used Maple Leaf multiple times. They are excellent.- Getting an MOS optic on a Glock 26
the SCS is lower on an MOS Glock because it doesn’t require a plate. It also has a smaller window and no battery. It has a niche role, but I think for your purposes. There are better options. Given that - my “A” answer would be to get the slide milled at Maple Leaf Firearms for a Holosun 509T. My second choice would be a Brownell’s slide and a Holosun 407c (or EPS if you want enclosed). https://www.brownells.com/gun-parts/handgun-parts/handgun-slides-parts/rmr-cut-slide-for-glock~-26/ You can use standard height sights with the Brownell’s slide, so you don’t need suppressor height BUIS. The millwork at MLF is about the same price as the new slide from Brownell’s (under $200) so it’s a wash. Done!- Getting an MOS optic on a Glock 26
I would do option 1 or 5. If you want to stay with a G26 sized gun go option one. Couple of questions to think about? • Why specifically an SCS? I would have it milled directly for an EPS carry or a 509T, not an SCS. The only benefit to an SCS is it fits in an MOS cut. If your having it milled, you can use any optic. If you have the option, pick something enclosed for a carry. • Why irons in front of optic? Maple Leaf Forearms ( https://www.mapleleaffirearms.com ) does great work if you are going milled. Quality work done affordable and fast If you want to go with a slightly bigger frame, and the ability to add a light, I’d go option 5 with the following knowledge: Option 5 has a couple hiccups you’d need to overcome: • You’d need to get a 43XMOS (there is no 43mos) 43x has a grip length equal to a G19, not a G26, only it is single Stack so it is about 30% slimmer. • The SCS won’t fit on the slim frame Glock correctly. It will hang over the edges. You’d need a 407K, a 507K, or an EPS Carry (EPS carry being the better choice) • the 43XMOS has a light rail so you can add a TLR7a sub.- Clay Shoot Clinton WMA ** CANCELED **

The CompTac clips loosened up on me to the point where if I have enough tension in the pouch to hold the mag, the whole pouch comes off my belt. In all fairness, my comptac pouches are probably 10-12 years old - the pouches with the clips that were molded in from the back. I replaced them with Bladetech pistol and Tenicor Rifle mag pouches.- OWB Double Mag Kydex Holster
Double mag pouch: Bladetech. Single mag pouch: Tenicor /thread ETA: Keep in mind, the belt has a lot of say in how the mags ride. A loose and floppy belt will not hold the mags vertical or tight to the body no matter how great the pouches are.- Cold weather concealed carry
I carry the same gun regardless of the weather. Rule of thumb is to only have one clothing layer concealing the firearm regardless of how many layers you are wearing. Sometimes that layer may change - ex: wearing a coat, over a sweatshirt, over a tshirt and going from house to outside to car to outside to house - you want to tuck the sweatshirt behind the pistol while the coat is over it, then pull the sweatshirt over the pistol again as you unzip or remove the jacket. If the sweatshirt comes off, the the tshirt is pulled over the pistol to conceal it. As you go the other way, clothes are tucked in again so only one layer conceals. This as all based on carry position as well so the process may need to be adapted to fit your personal needs. For example - I carry AIWB, ergo an unzipped jacket does not conceal for me, so the sweatshirt needs to be pulled over the gun as soon as I unzip. However someone carrying on the hip, an unzipped jacket may work just fine without the need to cover with the sweatshirt, at least until the jacket is removed. - Clearing a slide stuck in battery
