Realistically How Concerned Should I Be About Sweat?

Man I’ve been there once in my entire life and must have gotten lucky because I didn’t think it was that bad. Everyone else I know that’s been there has said differently. I was also 24 and I swear something about being a certain age makes crap weather less noticeable.

For our Sheppard/lab mix it works well. We give it to her from April to November.

Quite welcome. My wife and I are not big on chemical exposure regarding Raven ( our pup). We always used a holistic vet and supplement her diet with Standard Process supplements in addition to the Flea Away. Stay cool and enjoy the “dry” heat😵‍💫.

Man and I thought getting stuck in traffic for 5 minutes in central IL with a weak AC was bad. I can’t honestly imagine just how bad that would be. Be half tempting just to abandon the car at that point.

Got me a couple of cordless fans for the car. The kind which can be attached in varied directions, for ease/convenience. Used them a couple of times as extra support and they seemed to do well for me on the hotter days.

Yeah…that’s probably true. It’s almost like pick your death though. Which one will be less excruciating lol

That’s actually not a bad idea! I’ve been having to drive my Crown Vic Police Interceptor to work every day since my daily has finally accumulated too many problems to make it worth repairing. As much as I love driving the CVPI (minus the gas mileage) I’m noticing the difference between driving a little red two door and a big all black sedan in the middle of summer lol Cordless fans may actually help a lot there.

Yes Sir.

I got the one’s which look like an octopus, which have a few bendable arms to latch on for better positioning. I just gotta be more careful not to place it too close to a window where it bangs against it due to a car’s turbulence.

I was so surprised how much a difference they made for me.

Careful driving neighbor. :blush: :ice_cube: :cold_face:

Oh! I know what you’re talking about! My wife got one of those whenever she was pregnant for work. I doubt she’ll want me to take it away from her but I’ll have to get one of my own lol Thanks for mention that!

You as well!

I have replaced most of my leather holsters with kydex. I don’t throw the leather holsters away but still use them when sweat isn’t an issue if they are more comfortable than the kydex. I also use a “sticky holster comfort pad” with some of my kydex the are flat out uncomfortable. They work wonders. I always clean my pistols after shooting. If the got wet from sweat or rain, I simply take out the mag & open the slide until I get the motivation to clean them. BTW, I do not enjoy cleaning guns. I do it because I take care of my stuff but it’s just a chore.

RUGER9,

I have one of those pads as well. Took me a while to give it a try, but it helps offer a barrier between holster, firearm and skin. I find it does add a little bit of thickness thus slight imprint to the overall look/rig, but I have it on one of my IWB Kydex holsters to reduce that poking feeling.
