>Projecting this hard
Sure under a hyper specific situation YES a 12 can kick pretty good.
I'm sorry you're too autistic to put together that this thread is about tired shit you constantly hear dipshits spout off.
Also if it matters, no I don't do that kind of shit. It's irresponsible and unsafe.

>dipshits spout off
yeah too bad about all the dipshits spouting off. I feel you there.

Ingenious recoil system on that thing, but recoil from a birdshot feels the same as a buckshot/slug round.

>mfw i actually knew red shirt kid
His name was Paul I think. We went to the same elementary school. He was years behind me though.

My first gun that i bought was a nugget
But I'd been shooting my dads 30-30 since I was like 10
Be a fucking man and lean into and you'll be fine

Strangely the worst recoil I've ever felt was my friends Makarov

Why the fuck does that little thing have such a shitty recoil? Not even my .44 mag sucked to shoot that much.

Slide velocity.

Just clean it with frog lube, that should slow it down a bit

People spread the word about recoil but whenever I shoot for more than 10 minutes I have more problems with my support arm getting tired and unsteady than "recoil hurts muh shoulder"

Same desu.

Although I tend to use a sling to mitigate this.

I thought people exaggerated recoil to somehow aggrandize the shooting experience but someone posted a pic of their bruised shoulder from firing an AK..

This happens to my friends all the time, most people don't hold the gun correctly. They either barely rest the bottom tip of the stock on their shoulder or they don't pull the gun in and hold it tight.

The first time someone handed me a shotgun, I pulled it in tight, leaned forward, and dumped the mag (tubedumb?) as fast as I could.

3.5" magnum in a light pump shotgun kicks pretty real lol.

160 but okay.

Holy fuck!!!That kid looks just like me when I was that age.

I'm saving that!

>newfags don't know about shoop da whoop

Hello new friend

Fucking bananaposters are back

For a shotgun, yes it does, arguably kicks more than any one per its weight. Not complaining though

It’s a direct blowback. If you ever fire a Hi-Point, it’s similar.

Learn to set up the recoil rings properly. This shotgun is smooth as fuck when used as intended.

He was still right to make fun of you

That guys a commie faggot tho. Who gives a fuck what he or his boyfriend think.

Explain this shit.

A lighter gun will have more felt recoil in a caliber. Something like a polymer pistol or a compact will do that, especially the two together.

And the same thing applies to rifles and shotguns. The anons complaining about 12g recoil most likely have lightweight single barrel break open guns. I shoot pretty much exclusively 3.5" magnum 12g through a pump gun without idsue but an old single barrel break open 20g with 3" gives a sharper more unfriendly recoil

>Not specifying gun, loads and shooter
t. nogunz

Shoot a 3" slug out of a single barrel and talk to me again. There are so many factors influencing recoil, that you're basically retarded if you specify the caliber and go "hurr durr it kicks".

The best you can do is to show them how to pull the gun into their shoulder right. Then you can shoot about everything up to a .458 Lott with relatively few problems.

satan wouldnt lie, would he?

I do know how to use the recoil springs on it. That's what I mean, on the light setting, for birdshot, birdshot hits pretty hard. When you switch it over to the heavy load setting, and you use a heavy load, it still hits pretty hard. Birdshot and buckshot feel the same in that gun. As I originally said, pretty ingenious system.

.22 is fun and great for practicing fundamentals.

>kicks like hell

Here's a /woman/ shooting my 500magnum. She owns guns and has shot many times. The only instruction I gave her was not to hit yourself in the face and don't drop it.

Its from being scared of recoil and thus holding the stock about an inch off your body. So instead of recoil pushing you it punches you. It should be like i grabbed your gun by the barrel and tried to knock you on your ass by shoving you with it. Not like i just fuckin clobbered you. Sometimes they do have ok contact with stock but arent pulling it into them so it bounces around and does the same shit. Make firm contact in your shoulder pocket, and slightly pull the rifle into your body, this also helps to create tension and helps stop you from pulling the sights offtarget during trigger pull. And more importantly keeps the gun from beating you like a shitty wife

.38 +p out of a S&W airweight is worse than 240 grain .44 magnum from a model 29. I found that appalling the first time I fired one.

Yeah but you can do that in your backyard dude

Literally illegal in any place that isn't bumfuck nowhere

>getting caught shooting a .22
Howabout you don't scream out to the neighborhood you're shooting a gun and you'll be fine
We used to do this all the time

I wouldn't go so far as to call my friend a soiboi, but he is quite a soft man in every sense of the word. I've never seen such gnarly bruises as he had on just about his entire torso after we shot slugs out of our other friends 12 gauge.

I shot a full auto AK once, and it left a nice sized bruise. It was kind of surprising, not even a day of shooting 12 gauge will do that to me.

>fixing an old JC Higgins .22 for someone
>walk outside into back yard
>wave at the neighbors on their back patio
>fire three rounds into the ground and go back in
Its fine if you actually have a good relationship with the people you live around.

Also stance and position.

I could shoot a mosin or shotgun all day standing without a care.
Sitting on a bench and Im done after 3 rounds. Fuck that noise.

Congrats you figured out the point of the thread.

Right.
but I can do that with any caliber
Great non-argument, user. What I'm implying is that .22 is a very good training round on top of being fairly useful.

consciously abiding by laws in any capacity other than in the case of pure coincidence is blasphemy.
Who fucking cares. So long as you are smart you can do what you want.

shooting 100 rounds of 12gauge will leave a mark if you do it fast enough.
>someone who shoots 12 ga. more than the faggot OP

What clay thrower is that?
Ive been meaning to get a solo thrower but dont really know what to look for in one

It does, when you load some 3" slugs into an over under and pull both triggers at the same time for a bet.

here is a link to one identical to mine. I bought it at Sports Authority before they went under lol. This one is well made and will last just being left out and not oiled. The X and Y axis have to be moved by turning and looeseing a nut but mine is nigger-rigged with a welded piece so I can move it up and down. Next thing mine needs is another nigger-rigged weld on the X axis and then some string attached to the pull lever that will be connected to a stake and hold tension So I can just step on it. Rn I have to shoot with a bro or just hit it with my foot/barrel both feel kinda awkward but add to the challenge.

The only time it’s an annoyance is after around 400-500 rounds on a wire stock.

Some of you fuckers are straight up basedboys. I weighed 130lbs at that time.

Shoot slugs benched on a lightweight shotgun with no recoil pad. Your shoulder will most certainly get fucked up.

Ruins your ears indoors, though.
