Is Jeeebus a pussy? His shotgun and bruised shoulder say "YES!"

Finally got out to the range last night with the Mrs. to fire our new acquisitions for the first time. Ladies shoot free on Tuesdays so all the better.

Started off shooting the M&P 9mm

Great gun. Not much recoil at all. Both wife and I were very pleased with it (other than the stiff magazine that made my thumbs nearly fall off loading it).

Then came the real fun. The 11-87P. Range would not let me use buckshot - had to use slugs. Sucks because I have about 150 rounds of buckshot.

Before we switched over to the shotgun, we both went outside and popped in ear plugs under our earmuffs. Turned out to be a good call. Every time I or my wife squeezed that trigger, people were jumping in the lanes next to us.

Didn't think the recoil was all that bad actually. But I guess I had it seated wrong for a couple shots, because by the time I got home I had a nice bruise on my shoulder area.

Jeeebus is a delicate flower.
 
Even my benelli pump with a limbsaver bruises my shoulder if I shoot it long enough. Shooting the Mosin for more than 20 rounds also has me cringing afterwards.
 
I went to a clay shoot a few years back and shot 100 rounds of 12 gauge that day. My shoulder was black and blue that whole week but damn it was fun.

That's not why you shoot one handed.

You shoot one handed so you can dual wield.

Ya, I actually forgot to mention that a group of like 20 Asian guys showed up at one point and so I grabbed a second pistol, dropped to the floor in slow motion, spun on my back and killed them all. When I'm not Jeeebus, I'm John Woo.
 
Slugs seem to generate more recoil than normal bird shot or buck shot. And gas powered auto shotguns generate less recoil as some of the energy is dissapated in cycling the action.

My Beretta 12ga auto with a limbsaver and shooting #8 birdshot is tame as a kitten, on the otherhand I have an old break over double barrel 12ga with no recoil pad that will knock your teeth out.
