Skeettx, Yes I did I ordered one right away but I haven't got a chance to shoot with it yet. If it isn't raining too hard tomorrow I'll give it a try. It looks like it will work. Thanks, Pete

Buzz I never have to put my hands into anyone's mouth. A couple of fingers perhaps. Trust me when I say females clearly prefer doctors with small hands. There are more internal examination procedures done by an OB/GYN. I don't have to turn a babies head or do a internal exam by with multiple fingers or more. I use mirrors a lot to retract a cheek or tongue. I grip instruments which I move into the mouth which gives me four to five inches extra reach. Your dentist hand size does not mean you have to open extra wide so he can get his mitts into your mouth.
And hand strength is very important when it comes time to remove difficult teeth. Leverage, skill and force is still required to do that job. After tens of thousands of teeth I can get just about any tooth out with ease and as much patient comfort as possible. I've seen dentist who were rough as a rasp doing that job and they all tended to be small and weak or just stupid. It takes a gradual force, increased and decreased over time to allow the bone to stretch and relax so the tooth can be removed. The weaker ones just apply max force right away and if it breaks off, which they do too often that way, the patient is not going to enjoy the next half hour.

Hehe, I was just messing with you......however, you do realize you are talking to an ER physician who has done more than his fair share of work in the pelvic room. Im retired from the ER now, and I can assure you, I dont miss all those VD checks. BTW, I have long fingers for whatever thats worth.

Buzz, I don't think the grip shown is how he shoots but was the best he could do with one hand while trying to take a selfie picture. (And in the good ole USA that's the "comb" not the thumbhole. Joe I don't think the pics are selfies unless sxs man has an extra arm...Geo

I can't move my hand any further back while pulling the trigger. I can move it further back when shooting the rear trigger and then there is no pain. Pete

Your hand needs to be further back. Fit is poor for you. Get a gun fitting by a pro, Chris Batha, Bryan Bilinski in Traverse City, or other good gun fitters and your problem will be solved. Not every gun fits everybody. These guys can get you very close to ideal dimensions and then you go from there.

And the toe guard will move you back just a tad bit and also provide the shock absorption needed, Perhaps, possibly, we shall see Good shooting! Send us some moisture, been 120 days since we have seen ANY type of moisture. Mike

Big hands with short fingers. I guess we're back to middle finger amputation or front trigger bending. You have a choice!...Geo

His hands are smack right up against the trigger guard. But he did say that a couple of Band-Aids fixed the problem so something as simple as a paper towel wrapped around his figure should also do the trick.

I also have short fingers. When I have the problem sxsman has I change my grip by raising my wrist to move my trigger finger forward and my middle finger back. Still, that front trigger looks way too far forward to me...Geo
