I don't know about handleing the recoil and noise though
Do NOT MAKE me smack the living $h1T out of you!

The noise really isn't bad inside the range, if you have those ear muffler things on. You don't get headache or tinnitus either. Outside it disperses some.

The recoil isn't much of a factor in smaller weapons, and by the time you move to larger calibers, you are able to adjust.

I just think there are things that everyone should know in life- how to shoot, change a tire & do a tune-up, drive a stick, pick a lock, stuff like that. What if you had to shoot & couldn't. I dunno, I just like improving my odds in life where possible.

Besides, hitting the ten-ring is a rush!:D
Jill,
Pete was yanking my chain. I am a skilled shooter, combat and LE trained, and I still learn a lot from that "Dummy." He has forgotten more about firearms than most people will ever know. and he has not forgotten a whole heck of a lot.

Ok, I just thought the way you said spaz of death that you were actually doing the full technique of "Dance of Death".

How can one not love the Atchison 12 Ga? It has a 50 round box magazine, that alternates double 00 Buck and slugs. Of course, the Childers has a similar set up using a drum magazine, less muzzle climb and a somewhat reduced recoil.
I think Mel Gibson said it best, "Uzi, when you are serious about home security."

It ain't what you got, its how you use it............

I have a good friend with a rusty old Chinese 9mm, but doubt he would miss out to 40 or so yards.

Anything ABSOLUTELY 100% reliable, with good ammo would work for me.

Guess a Kimber .45, or SIG P-229 .40 are as good as any for my palsied skills.
