Shot a gun for the first time ever, it was a Glock 22. I was shaking after each shot and had to steady myself, as well as my aim being trash when my posture was corrected to straightening my arms.

What is the cure for my faggotry? inb4 bullet to the head

At least the recoil didn't bruise your shoulder.

Were the shell casings flying past your head disorientating? Did the smell of sulfur and destruction make you sick? Were the explosions loud like a bomb?
Did you walk away with a temporary form of PTSD?

Shoot more. That's the fix to shooting bad. Much good the more shoot OP

Relax, the gun won't fly out of your hand
Practice more, practice often

It's adrenaline brah.
More bullets should cure your assfaggotry.

No, no, yes (someone was shooting an AR or something and I kept flinching involuntarily), no. I really liked how shooting felt and I plan to get a gun one day

>>31865400
That wasn't what I was concerned about. I guess it's just the recoil was more powerful than I expected since 0 experience with guns

Not my whole body out of fear or something, just my hands

Stick to the 17... 9mm is better suited to pussies...

Nothing abnormal. You just need to shoot more often and get used to it.

>>31865346
It's a combination of adrenaline and nervousness. It happens to all first timers and will go away as you gain more experience.

Shoot at outdoor ranges if you can, and carefully control your breathing. Shooting should be almost meditative. Slow, deep breaths, let it halfway out, hold, squeeze trigger. Don't even think about the gun going off. Ignore that. Just concentrate on the act of slowly squeezing the trigger while on target. Let the gun "surprise" you.

If you can get a revolver, there's a great exercise where you open the cylinder, load 2 already fired cartridges in, load the rest with live rounds, spin the cylinder for a second, and then close the gun (don't slap it shut while the cylinder is spinning, it's bad for it). That way, you have 2 duds in there, and you don't know where. It really helps you learn to deal with flinching.

You might not be synchronizing very well with the gun. You probably need to spend more time with the gun to let your brain wavelengths get closer together. It's kinda like how in evangelion the pilots have to like bond with the Evas or some shit. same thing with guns. Once you get synchronized perfectly harmony you will see a huge improvement in your shooting with that gun.

You shot a .40 and experienced bitchwrists syndrome. Just switch to 9mm and you will be fine.
