This is a spinoff of another thread that someone suggested I start. Maybe it's been discussed before. Maybe not.
My statement was that I have observed many "older" guys who have been forced to or who have chosen to carry/shoot a caliber of lesser recoil due to aging hands, arthritis, lack of hand strength etc.
Many of them have gone from 40/45 back to 9MM/38. Is this you? Why?
I'm in my mid forties and can feel the arthritis in my hands coming on. Usually after a long day at work. However it doesn't bother me when I shoot so I'm not ready to go down in caliber. I really hope I don't have to. I own all 45 ACP and one 38.
Regards.
