If the weather isn't into the freezing temps, I prefer to wear a single-layer deerskin glove. Find them at motorcycle shops is usually easiest for me. The gloves you want have inside seams so that the outside is smooth and doesn't have those "ridges" along the fingers. These are full coverage gloves up to your wrist with elastic to keep 'em on once they start to stretch a little.

In colder temps, I also like Thinsulate gloves or neoprene. Experiment on the range first, however. I've found that some gloves, combined with cold fingers and result in the gun discharging a tad earlier than you intend.
