My trigger and middle finger turn yellow and go numb for hours sometimes when it gets in the 40's.
Anyway, what out there is durable, a little warm, and easy to load mags, pick up small stuff, etc?

Anything by Outdoor Research. They make some great glove liners that are very warm and are stand alone gloves for none freezing conditions

Eta: on the phone so edited the above.

The PL 150's are something that would work, they have small rubber pads in the fingers for grip.

If you looking for warmer their Flurry gloves are awesome. I've worn those all day in snow conditions and hands stayed warm.

And no, this wasn't in SC.

WinterSoft golf gloves

I have tried several 'tactical' gloves and mechanics gloves. These have bar far better trigger finger feel, and that for me is the most important thing when shooting a pistol.

Atlas
Nitrile coated stretch fabric gloves
Still easy to load mags, I was at the range in 29* and could still feel my fingers after an hour
Online $20 for a dozen pair

My brother got me a set of Rothco special forces tactical gloves a couple years back that I like for mild weather.

Mechanix insulated, they are comfortable, secure, and give you a very positive ''feel'' for all controls of the weapon. I used a pair earlier this year when it was 4 degrees out, I shot for about an hour an a half, stayed warm and comfortable the whole time. Oh, and they are very reasonably priced ($25-$30).

I wear these for work and they are good till the temps hit about 10 or so as long as the wind isn't to much and they are cheap $10 for 3 pairs. I found some at a discount store for $6 for the 3 pack

i just got a 2 pack a couple weeks ago. i usually wear gloves to load mags and put up targets and pick up brass but when it comes time to shoot i take them off. i hope i can shoot with the mechanix gloves it seems like a lot of people use them.

I toss on my Hatch Operator gloves. They keep them warm while I am shooting. Are they gonna keep them warm for 12+ hours, no. Dexterity in them is amazing.

In cold weather I use winter gloves that are made to allow you to use smart phones and other devices, because the "trigger" finger on the gloves make it so your finger won't "slip", i.e. you get a good "feel" on the trigger.
