My KSG Bullpup has an 18" barrel, and shooting 12g rounds through it for two minutes, leaves you bruised beyond recognition. Before I added the gel pad to the butt and the foam cheek guard, it even bruised your face. I like randomly throwing 50cal rifled slugs in the tubes, and when you get one, you go flying back like in the cartoons.

those pain ratings at the hospital make no sense. if they used pictures i think it would get the point across.
1 is useless 2 is not on the radar. 3 is not worth going to er, 4-10 if your at the er chances are its an 11.

i ask what number represents stubbing your toe on the door frame? smash my finger with the hammer?
slamming my hand in the car door? anything else is just a monday.

I used to mock "cruiser" shotguns before but dangit if I'm not wanting a Mossberg shockwave now. Gauge sucks because I have a 20, but 90% of the toys are 12ga only, and the mini shells are way more options and easy to find in 12. If it weren't for that I'd be perfectly happy stocking one size - instead - I have a 20ga youth gun I bought for a teaching a "kid" who's now 35 and has a dozen or so employees. Slap a flashlight, sling, big red 60moa circle on it, fill it with minis and make that my turkey gun. (As in, "Freeze Turkey!") I'm sure it would absolutely slay some jackolanterns come November 1st.

Went target shooting with my youngest daughter yesterday. I took along my old Ruger Blackhawk, a 2" S&W model 15 Combat Masterpiece, my 4" model 19 Combat Magnum, and my Model 39 9MM. Funny thing - she disliked the single action Ruger, and loved the model 19. But she told me her favorite is the 4" S&W 686 I own, which is a beast of a handgun. She's a self-proclaimed revolver lover.

It's interesting how many people consider the Model 19 (or the 66, the stainless version) to be their favorites. I like the 15 and the 19 both.

And I found my hands shaking a bit too much for comfort while shooting. Some hand and lower arm exercises have commenced. I need more grip strength and steadier hands.

i hear that. ive been trying to strengthen my hands. the shaking is there but better. those stress balls help a little.
and the spring grip.
