there is nothing wrong with a healthy respect for recoil. if you want to call me a wimp so be it, but im not a masocist. when i go out to the range i like to throw a few hundred rounds downrange, and though some people think protection from recoil messes with their "machisimo", i always use a slip on limbsavr pad with my rifles. i dont own a big-bore handgun, but if i did, id get pachmyr grips for it.

case in point, my father has arthritic hands from .44mag shootting, and wont shoot my rifles for fear of a detached retina (prior eye problems btw)

you can call me a wuss, but when im 75 ill still be shooting.

Dang! Anybody want to buy my Sc and Ti for cheap? Heck, maybe I'll just go throw em in the river!

Please forward to me a map of the spot in the river where you will be throwing the gun.
A date and time would be appreciated also.

Heavy recoiling rifles such as the 458WMag and heavier can also cause problems. Detached retinas and nerve damage to the neck [head whips back and forth]. Nerve and muscle damage to the shoulder.

Kind of a shock to see Kentucky Rifle posting again. Then I saw the date.
