The flash from the primer travelled through the touch hole igniting the main charge of propellant in the gun barrel. On release of the lever or trigger, the spring-loaded serpentine would move in reverse to clear the pan. For obvious safety reasons the match would be removed before reloading of the gun.

In this I am wearing thick gloves that make it hard to reach my gun and even harder to get a good trigger pull. What are some suggestions that would make it easier to carry during winter. I.E. a good brand of gloves, different type of holster (do you prefer a inside the waste or outside during winter)? Any types of grips that are winter friendly? Should I maybe even uses a different gun during the winter? Holsters: Care should be taken to ensure you can access your holster. Here in Maine the winters are VERY cold and I wear an old police jacket that has two zippers on your hip area to allow clearance for the police duty belt. This allows me to access a belt holster. Otherwise, I use a properly fitting shoulder holster for my Sig-Sauer P-226 or Smith & Wesson Model 19. Pocket carry is an option as well, but will present its own set of problems I’ll discuss later. Position Retention Clip/Paddle Gun Size & Dress: Typically during the summertime, I’ll carry a lighter gun like my S&W Model 60 .38 Spl or my NAA .22 LR Mini Revolver, because the manner of dress doesn’t allow me to carry a large gun. During the wintertime however, you dress more heavily and can more easily conceal a large handgun. Also consider caliber choice.  Anyone who you’re facing in a defensive situation would most likely be dressed with heavy clothing as well. This could affect the performance of your chosen bullet that works well when your opponent isn’t wearing a thick canvas or wool jacket. Jake: I don’t wear dresses… but I’m planning on carrying OWB with the help of Duluth Trading Company’s longtail Ts and shirts Probably either going with a Crossbreed Holster or Comp-Tac holster or both depending on gun. Bullet Selection: Continuing in the caliber argument, bullet selection is very important as well.  Due to the tendency to dress in heavier clothing, hollowpoint bullets may have difficulty expanding if the hollow point is plugged by a heavy piece of denim or other clothing.  It would be wise to consider using something such as the Hornady Critical Duty rounds with their polymer insert in the hollow cavity. Stay away from the Critical Defense rounds in my opinion.  I have read several reviews online & seen YouTube videos online by Tnoutoors9 that have shown inconsistency in expansion and powder charge. (i.e. underpowered rounds.) Feedback: Daniel: Hey Jake, I used to own one of the Mossberg 715t.  Saw it in a Cabela's ad, drove 3 hours to get it,
