Someone else said the kick from the pistol grip would injure the shooter.
I've shot a shotgun at waist level, it's not a problem at all. Gentle. Same piece against the shoulder is quite a bit more jarring.
It's all about physics. Just like in a car crash, the greater distance you can spread the energy over reduces the force. The hand is at the end of an arm, a great shock absorber. I've shot large pistols before, I can't believe a shotgun round has more energy in it than a .223 or a .45-70 in a handgun, which I have experienced. I just let the thing go up over the head if it wants. -- Jim _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
