Suppressors catch more than sound. Every shot sends hot, particulate-laden propellant gas through the can, and carbon, lead residue, and unburned powder settle into the baffles. Left alone, that fouling adds weight and eventually degrades both sound performance and the long-term integrity of the ...
Cold hands do more than hurt. They cost you the fine motor control you need to run a trigger, tie a knot, or handle a tool, and the deterioration compounds: removing a glove to regain feeling only speeds up hand cooling, which drops your dexterity further. A good pair of heated gloves breaks that...
