Recoil is a fucking meme.

Even .50 cal pistols don't kick that much.
>>
>>32035872
so you finally got to shoot your friends gun, huh?
other than the recoil, how did you like it?
>>
>>32035872
It's not wrist shattering like nogunz and hollywood think it is, but some guns can have tremendous recoil. Try firing .500 S&W out of the 2 inch barrel bear survival model.
>>
>>32035885
big, impractical but very enjoyable to shoot

fire off 50 full tilt 500 magnum loads then come back and say "recoil is a meme" . My magnumitis was finally cured by the 500. The 700gr loads really let you know you that you are sending 1/10lb of lead downrange at supersonic speeds.
>>
>>32036195
This...the 300gr ones that have the same kinetic energy as a .308 from a 6" barrel put some oomph into your hand. They have enough recoil to cause some people to accidentally bump fire a double action revolver...

yup, 308, 30-06 and 3" magnum slugs all have roughly the same energy from their 24"+ barrels as the 500 mag does from 8".
>>
>>32036372
I've single handed some pretty stout loads from it and the bore axis actually does seem to help; muzzle flip seems to reduce the felt recoil in some odd way.

starting firing lr22 ... no recoil ...
when i fired first 9mm i was exspecting more recoil and was surprise how recoilless it is.

No shit the Deagle has no recoil, it's a 4lbs milled steel monster working on a gas-piston.

Go and shoot an AMT AutoMag V and tell me .50AE has no kick.

I own this gun. It hurts. 244 gr hurts more than 350 too interestingly enough.
>>
The complaint of recoil is not about, "oohhh noo that magnum is going to break your wrist only big boys can shoot".

It's just an uncomfortable thing to deal with after a long enough time.
>>
i dont get it just pull the mouse down to compensate
>>
>>32036368
.454 is a good kind of hurt. .460 is a bad, not very fun kind of hurt. I've never shot a 500 though.

The gun is moving faster but has less momentum from mass exiting the gun, thus it gives a sharp sting rather than a big boom

>>32036368
Literally the only gun I've ever shot where I stopped shooting it because of the pain.

I didn't have any trouble controlling a Glock 18, though. Everyone that day was surprised at how easy it was to keep on target at reasonable pistol distances - I mean, yeah, I'll get more accurate hits not firing full fun, but I can quite easily hold a machine pistol at minute-of-man accuracy up to like 30 yards. Not sure what everyone's going on about it being completely useless.

Not him, but my hands tremble when holding a gun. They also tremble pretty much always, because thanks genetics for giving me old man hands.

You mean the one that has fuck all recoil because it's can't burn most of the powder before it's out of the barrel.
>>
>>32045855
Nope. Only handguns I have are a Tokarev, P64 and a Colt Navy repro. It is pretty rare, though, but both of my brothers have it. I just have it way worse than they do. My hands actually shake worse than my dad's.

I don't have tremors but I was never able to earn my Expert Badge in marksmanship because I couldn't keep my rifle still enough
Still bothers me to this day
>>
>>32045837
>>32049152
I've heard working out more helps with that, makes all the adrenaline which could be causing that get used up by lifting heavy weights or running. My hands for the past 12-14 months were shaking real bad in the morning but would get better as the day progressed, and it's been a sine wave of getting better then getting worse. Thought it was because of my drinking but it doesn't seem to cause a difference. Been trying to work out more and I have very little shaking now, could be a placebo or it could be a number of other things (had a lot of stress going on at the time.)
>>
>>32045837
Essential tremor here too. Ever considered propranolol?
