Would a .22 rifle be a possibility?

By a "port" I assume you are talking about an implanted IV port. If that is the case, the port should be far enough away to not cause a problem with placing the butt stock up to your shoulder (based on my experience from accessing them for IV infusions in the ER and ICU). This statement is also qualified by assuming that it isn't a brand new port which would still require some healing time before I would risk it. Otherwise, the recoil from a 22lr should not cause any problems with it, as ports are usually pretty tough and allow for all kinds of activities. If still worried, talk with the doc.
 
He could always get a .17 lol....there just as much fun :D. Does a .22 or a .17 really have recoil at all. When I've fired them I just don't notice anything at all or is that because I'm concentrating on my fundamentals !! :confused:

Take a look at 3 min 40 seconds in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoYXa0ZJ91Q.
There is a tiny wee recoil but hardly anything. Your clothes would soak that up easy.
 
A 22LR in a normal weight rifle doesn't "kick". "Twitch" would be more like it. Unless your medical condition prohibits the lightest touch, you shouldn't have a problem.
