11/16 hunt…

…they should figure out how to heat that and the forearm!
Although I'm sure others have thought of that, I personally had not. And it's brilliant!! Heated steering wheels, snow blower handles, etc. exist & the technology isn't complicated. So why not a rechargeable shotgun??!! People would buy that feature for sure!!! The battery pack might be hefty, but that's a mere design challenge.

could even make it solar have the rib of the barrel be your mini solar panels.

Careful, the die hard double barrel guys will put out a hit on you for suggesting something as audacious as a heated pistol grip on a shotgun. But I'm game. I've daydreamed about ways to keep my hands warm without losing functionality of my fingers.
 
Has anyone tried putting rubber gloves under their normal gloves? I've had a few guys do that and they say it has helped since the wind doesn't hit your hands. I'm pretty luck and once my hands get warm I can wear fairly thin gloves and not have any problems.
 
Any glove that is on tight like rubber surgical gloves will impede circulation and reduce the heat to your hands. I like cross country ski gloves with disposable heat packs on the back of your hand when temps are <10. My $.02
 
This discussion got me wondering so I did some looking.

There are rechargeable heated thin gloves available. Use as a liner or as a glove.

That makes sense. I've been using the Venom heavy gloves and I don't think they are tighter than a golf glove.
 
Growing up in ND I seem to have lost most cold-sensitivity in my hands. Rarely wear gloves. I often scoop slush from ice holes with my bare hand and most often grab minnows from the minnow bucket with my hand year around.

A minute in a vest or bib pocket is all that is needed on those really cold days to jump-start my hand if below zero.

If for some reason it is really cold I wear a glove on the forearm (left) hand, but essentially never on the trigger finger hand. That said, I always seem to lose the forearm (left) hand glove and as a result, have a ton of right-hand gloves laying about.
 
Sounds like a great way to have your truck stolen.
In Middle-of-Nowhere, SD, it's not at risk. In mid January when it's -10, the car thieves aren't out. In fact, almost nobody's out, but me, trying to find a couple pheasants. Plus, I never get more than a couple hundred yards from the truck, commonly only 100-150. I'm just talking about hitting little stretches of cattails/thickets in ditches. Not 4 mile death marches around an entire section.

if it gets real bad i put a glomitt on my shooting hand and keep my trigger finger exposed but the others area covered by the mitten top.

This works, on cold days I wear a cheap pair of Batting gloves with nitrile gloves underneath. The best part part about the nitrile gloves is they provide a waterproof base layer as well.
