learn to handle it, those you shoot at will hurt more than you.

Ayup. Watching the various videos, one can spot the guy or 3 that
handles the recoil properly, leans in, takes the shot, recovers and
would be ready to go again. No spazzing around, falling over backwards
and so forth. And NOT the big guys either. Just some normal sized guys
who obviously have put some rounds down range in the past.

I figure if 150 pound, five foot six Brits can go through some two
thousand rounds with a Henry Martini in one long engagement (Roakes
Drift) and still function, it should not be all that difficult for "a
grown man" to handle a .940 caliber rifle. Might take some practice,
but hey, if they can handle a .75 caliber gun (aka a 12 gauge shotgun
firing slugs), what's another .19 caliber?

Indeed. Though there is a huge difference between a 45/577 firing black
powder or cordite and that .950...but shrug....

One could not be a successful Leftwinger without realizing that,
in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers
and mothers of Leftwingers, a goodly number of Leftwingers are
not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.
