Been practicing handling my carbine left handed due to broken wrist and just realized I can run it right handed even with the cast.  I can't grip the pistol grip very well but I think I can run it better right handed even with the cast.

Reloads suck.  I'm probably only 2 or 3 times as fast as some gang banger piece of shit mother fucker now.

ETA: The aiming comes from the off-hand for me.  The weight bearing too.  My dominant hand doesn't need to do that much running a carbine.

Wow that is dedication.

Breaking a wrist simply to get training, I think I would just have put an oven mitt on my right hand....

Bet Mr. Happy is enjoying some strange.





Hehehe...maybe

On the bright side I've had an inordinate amount of attention from the ladies including two numbers/follow-up calls with a date planned and an in-home visit that already occurred earlier in the week.

Pics are a must for this thread, while holding said AR with said cast.

Oh fuck...I feel obligated but this will be a bitch.  Let this be a placeholder.  If I can get pussy with one hand I sure as hell better be able to get a pic.

I cut my left hand nearly off to learn that I needed a semi auto HD shotgun.  Couldn't work a pump anymore.  Tap-rack and bang wasn't possible so I went to a revolver.

Practice left handed.  It is a pain but worth it.  i started doing it years ago.  When I jacked my right hand and could not use it for a couple weeks it was nice to be like ahhhh just gotta get a little closer.  I already had a holster etc from practicing.

You'll learn to do so many other things in these short few weeks.  I broke mine 8 years ago.  

Wiping your ass is new all over again!  Showering with the trash bag on your arm getting old?  You learn to beat off with the left yet?

Get well soon, man.  Good luck with the recovery.
