9mm vs .40

I had a major gun robbery, theft years ago from the house.
One of the guns stolen was a 12 ga Damascus SXS with exposed hammers given to me by my grandpa. My grandpa did not like guns and as soon as I hit 16 yrs old, gave it to me. (my whole family is anti gun, I'm an anomaly.)
Double triggers. If one pulled the right trigger first, both hammers would fall resulting in a major recoil event.
Left trigger, it would fire one barrel, then the left with the other trigger.
What I hope is that the tweeker that stole them cut off the stock and pulled the right trigger first after sawing off the barrell and cutting the stock into the pistol grip.

If so, he probably parts his hair differently...

major recoil event

Officially a new Term.
MRE (major recoil event) - The violent and explosive action that occurs when a gun of significant caliber is discharged, generally causing significant bruising to the shoulder of the weapon's shooter. Or the point between the thumb and index finger with a large caliber pistol.

Acknowledged and corrected above.

Huh. My discomfort was always in the palm/heel area below the thumb joint.

Lol, I was a mechanic/welder/livestock producer. I have a hard time discerning between orthopedics and ornithology...

Im just glad to see this discussion actually discussed and debated on an adult level with valid points. I dont see that very often anymore.
