This is a vid response to the guy on ARFCOM who lost most of his thumb while shooting his 460 S&W X-Frame. If you hold your revolver correctly, according to the manual, this won't happen. STUPID hurts!

  • Look at this other guy's video - far better quality and less condescending compared to this jackass and his little weiner:

  • @W857TYWH408576NW0348 Wow little buddy, with that attitude, you'd think it was your wiener that got blasted. I fail to see how I was condescending, just matter of fact. If you had even looked you would have noticed that I redid the video with improved materials that still bore out the original result. If you feel that you can produce a better video, please do so, for the benefit of other shooters instead of whining and name calling like an 8 year old.

  • I have always held my left index finger on the front of the triggerguard on my S&W 629. All I get is a black finger.

  • @Fozzy357

    Not even close to the same scenario and what people who have had injuries have done. Move your LIF up along the bottom of the cylinder and see the differences in angles/distances involved.

    On a side note, the form you are using is not ideal and will hinder recoil control.

  • @sorryociffer Please tell me why a strong forfinger on the triggerguard will hinder anything. I just won the State championship with tha grip

  • @Fozzy357

    If that is true and it works for you, good. However, that is not a grip that generally accepted or recommended. You will not get as strong a grip from that as you will a conventional grip. What were you shooting IDPA or IPSC? What class and state?

  • I used to have an old Model 10 that we resently hocked, it roasted my knuckles once that, never again...

  • Thank you for this. I fired my S&W Model 19 for the first time last night, and my fingers are fine today. I had previously watched another you tube video where a guy blew hole in his left index finger with firing gas//flash, because he didn't know any better and had it up where the hot dog is in this video.

  • Whats a link to the thread you mentioned?

  • Some people will learn from proper instruction.

    Some people will learn from other's mistakes.

    Some people will learn from their own mistakes.

    Some people may not learn at all.

    Pretty sad.

  • @INYCT Even with a bullet this big, it's going to be real tough hitting a target that small.

  • @COZWV

    where can I find ths video

  • I guess this problem should be nonexistent with a Nagant M1895.
