Yeah depends on your stance as well has how well built it is

yeah

They hurt though no doubt about it 🤣

lol yeah

the M16 hurt I cant imagine a 12 gague

I was shooting a 10 gauge for my Shotgun merit badge at scout camp and at the end of the week I was bruised

Shooting clay pigeons

wow

12 gauges are nice. Definitely a lot less recoil than a 10

I've got a .22 from my grandfather

basically a deadly bb gun

Lol don't underestimate it though 🤣

yeah

one shot to the head... boom

Yeah unless it hits the skull at an angle or something it could ricochet off

I'm an ok shot, with a few shots from that baby I could kill a man

oh

Yeah for sure

not much stopping power

but definitely deadly

Most of the time it'll penetrate the skull. Definitely not much stopping power lol but yeah

Or a shot to the eyes

That's not a fun time

Probably the best gun for me with my small body

fired a 9 mil once but it had crazy recoil

I think a 9mm carbine would be good

yeah

the nice thing about .22s is that you can get 5 shots off quickly

Yeah true

mine's semi auto so I can take a few shots

the 9 mil though takes 3 seconds to re-aim

for me

I've never shot a 9mm carbine but I'd assume it's just a little more recoil than a .22

yeah

my mom's a leftist but luckily she's pro-gun

she's from louisiana and owns a revolver so thats good for me

Yeah

I wanna shoot a revolver one day

I've shot a snubnose

its funny to shoot

when you see a snubnose you think of the old bony man in the robe in a move screaming "get off my lawn" and shooting it with no recoil one handed
