Went to an indoor range in Houston last night and my brother had never shot my 44. It's a lightweight octagon original barrel and recoil is substantial. There were several couples shooting in lanes beside us and when he pulled the trigger on the first round, everybody leaned out and looked over. The girl in the lane beside us was amazed. She was saying how she could feel it in her chest and wanted to know if a woman could shoot it. I told her I wouldnt advise it, but if she wanted to she could...she watched the recoil and politely declined lol. Every guy wanted to know if they could shoot it and it was very amusing to watch the look on their face when they set it down. We shot 18 rnds and the web of our hand looked like hamburger lol. I need to get rid of the original grips with the 44 and get a pachmeyer. One guy forgot to cock it and flinched so bad when he pulled the trigger, he turned and grinned. Range officer shot it once and set it down. My brother is retired military and pulled off several 2 in groups at 25 yrds. Fun gun to shoot, but not for the faint if heart lol
