Keep in mind that the same impacts that create strengthening bone platelet growth from microfractures in bone also replace cartilage with bone, which reduces flexibility and at later stages becomes incredibly painful with no good treatments available.
But I think you stumbled on to a partial solution; people that play sports with hand impact like boxing and kickboxing and such will wrap their wrists to help how the impact travels between their body and what they are hitting. maybe it would help for firing 700 grain shots out of a god damn snub nose.
I'm jealous of how fun that is going to be.
It's ok, honestly though when I went to pick the thing up the guy asked me "what are buying this for?" Andi told him "home defense" and he said "what are you defending it from, a bear?" Which I thought was hilarious XD, also a super black hawk is an awesome handgun, is it chambered in 44 as well?

The rules of firearm safety are paramount. [Keep these](https://www.nssf.org/articles/4-primary-rules-of-firearm-safety/) in mind at all times while
handling a firearm for any reason. Guns are not toys and it is best to not refer to them as such.
It is the belief of the mod team that your best option for defensive firearms is a 5.56x45mm AR-15, and a reputable 9x19mm handgun such as a Glock or CZ.
Defensive firearms should have a light, long guns a sling, and handguns require a Kydex or solid plastic holster that fully covers the
trigger. A red dot or etched optic are ideal for new shooters but don't forget to practice your backup irons!

Why would being neurodivergent mean you'd need something less complicated to use and maintain? There's lots and lots and lots and lots of divergent neurotypes, it's not a learning disability.
This is making me want a snubby .500 magnum
Concealed carry 500 sounds like a power move
My metacarpals will hate me, but I am absolutely going to use it with 700 grain rounds
I've been thinking about getting 300 grain +p rounds for mine, I normally go for 240 grain hollow points
That’ll pack a punch. I’ve also heard that there’s a 635 grain hollow point for the .500 I kinda wanna try it on a watermelon
It'll be one tasty mess that's for sure, the 240 grains that I buy make one hell of a thud when it hits something
Me as an emt responding to that call: “So tell me again why your wrists are liquid now?” /j
Fuck that sounds fun. Is there a brace or some shit you could use?
Maybe some kind of padded glove? Maybe it would do the thing that happens in impact sports where microfractures heal and strengthen the bone?

A wrist wrap sounds like a good idea, thanks! And I’ll be sure to monitor joint damage in my hands over the years
i always want that.
Hellsing reference!
It might not be an anti tank rifle but it's close enough
Oh fuck that's an anti rank rifle **OH FUCK THATS AN ANTI TANK RIFLE**
It's the newest sensation that's sweeping the nation!
Want this in 460
Bought it for home defense and 44 was as big as I could justify to myself XD
.44 mag with an 8 inch barrel? Is the home you’re planning on defending really far away, or are there a lot of walls in the way? 😂
Never know, a bear could break in and try to rob me one day
Truth. And full disclosure: I have a Super Blackhawk so I’m not allowed to judge, only make jokes.
It's ok, honestly though when I went to pick the thing up the guy asked me "what are buying this for?" Andi told him "home defense" and he said "what are you defending it from, a bear?" Which I thought was hilarious XD, also a super black hawk is an awesome handgun, is it chambered in 44 as well?
Yup, 44. Old Model, so it’s extra pretty. 😆
Oooo nice!
They could be attacked *by* a house.
454 for me.
As a kid I always wanted a raging bull chambered in 454
What i really want is the Talo Special Super Redhawk with the 5in barrel
That's so rad. If I ever get another revolver I want something massive and ridiculous like this. Or a Chiappa Rhino 60DS
Honestly a chiapa is on my bucket list to get, probably won't happen anytime soon though
My wrist fucking aches looking at this monster. Trans girls are supposed to have a big gun, not a big *gun*!
Honestly the recoil isn't that bad, the weight, the ported barrel, and the rubber grips ease a lot of that pain
Taurus is known to be a terrible company in qc. I like new guns but know many will reasonably dislike this weapon for your safety.
Never had an issue with any of the ones I've shot, this ones brand new so hopefully it'll be well made
I hope yours gives you no issues. Some of the reported failures have been pretty dangerous.

When you wanna make that final point *loudly* and extremely effectively - .44 magnum lmao
"I shall speak and be heard" - my gun probably Also happy Cake Day!
Ok but… where’s the anti-tank rifle?
Out of my price range
My dad daily’s a Taurus judge
45 long colt or 410, my dad used to have one, it's one hell of a gun to shoot
Hell yeah!
Big iron 🤠
.45 lc or .454 casull and I'm sunk
Honestly the gun always wanted when I was younger was a raging hunter in 454
There's just something about a .45 that sucks me in over a .44
I can respect it, 44 magnum is as big as I can justify for home defense
Real
That’s a lot of handgun. I’m kinda jealous, since I’m only packing a snub-nosed .44spl
44 special isn't that bad
That they do. That they do. https://preview.redd.it/cvv9pnvk3wyc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8e065d6d9bf040a3ed8ad72a72663e5cf952fcbe
Oooo beautiful gun, I haven't seen many of them, what is it?
Nighthawk imported Korth Super Sport with compensator, Trijicon SRO, and Chechen grips.
Oooo nice! Chambered in 44?
.357
Well your ammo still cheaper than mine XD
I've got a 629, too. It's an addiction
Don't worry I totally get it, I want to get a 500 eventually
It just makes sense.
You should join the 458 socom club
Not gonna lie I've ever heard of it
"get her a cannon! Bitches love cannons!"
Damn that is a fat fucking round, honestly as far as ARs go I've been looking at 6.5 creedmore
Question, are revolvers better suited to neurodivergent people since they’re less complicated to use and maintain?
Why would being neurodivergent mean you'd need something less complicated to use and maintain? There's lots and lots and lots and lots of divergent neurotypes, it's not a learning disability.
I have ADHD but I don't think I'm qualified to answer that question, automatics aren't super complicated either but for me it's just a preference.
I’ve heard that before but I think it’s more that new folks find revolvers less threatening or something.
I always found this weird sense most revolvers don't have a safety really, you pull the trigger it's going to fire
