    your guess is neither educated nor correct, and anyone who thinks he will even break his arm or wrist much less blow it clean off is clearly talking about something they do not have any conceptual grasp of nor practical experience with. he will not cause himself any broken bones. at worst he might hurt his wrist a little, enough to tell him 'hey maybe you should adjust your grip there, cowboy'.

    please, for the love of god and all that is holy, if you don't have experience of something yourself, please do not comment on how you think it should be since you're most probably going to be wrong

    Ok, seriously, dont act like a dick, Its an educated guess because Im using a mathematical outcome, Im using the recoil of the gun, and his posture with the gun, an educated guess does not have to be correct, nor do you have to be a dick about it, like you are acting right now, Just because we say something doesn't always mean its true, People make incorrect mistakes all the time, so, calm down, and get off your high horse.

    I am pretty sure educated guess implies prior knowledge which is apparently lacking.

    He'd hurt his hand but his arm won't be blown clean off.

    you're using the recoil of the gun?

    how do you quantify that value? are you even aware of the manner in which revolvers behave during recoil due to their design, the grip type, the weight distribution and the peculiarities of the specific cartridge used?

    it's not an educated guess because you're making it up as you go along. an educated guess would be using personal experience or actual, quantified values. you're drawing from neither.

    i'm not on a high horse at all, i'm merely sick to death of people parroting the same stupid gun myths over and over when they don't actually understand the topic at all.

    Then ignore them, and I used the wikipedia he is using a Colt Anaconda, I dont know which cartridge but, Im using the first one, and how his hand is holding it, and how stiff his arm is, Im making a guess, I know its not correct, I know Im no weapon specialist but I am guessing, and just because Im guessing doesnt mean you flip out on me, for a simple little thing, and how do you know what I use?, how do you know what I have done in my life?, so dont go off on me just for that one thing, and really You don't have to reply if you dont like what we say, dont like it, its the internet, no one is always 100% correct, it is the basic thing of being human, we all make a mistake, or an error, and your using people that have fired a gun that you've seen, have you fired a Colt Anaconda .45 magnum?, if so, then Im sorry for wasting your time, and for being incorrect, but if you have not, then dont worry about anything, just because were not correct, doesn't mean you have to jump on our backs about it, just ignore us

    no seriously hunter890 i hope you were trying to troll because that is literally the dumbest thing i have ever read in this section
    A 357's recoil is very big.Thats why it *might* take his arm off.
    Oh and by *take* i mean it might break his wrist or will inflict some injuries.

    you're an idiot

    it will not break his arm, his wrist, or amputate either. .44 mag will not. .50 ae will not. fucking .500 s&w will not.

    quit perpetuating stupid bullshit myths made up by morons to try and impress/scare people with no personal experience (e.g. you).

    Edited:

    lol vman what's the bet one of them claims that's fake or they're using .38 spl or something

    The only half decent thing in the picture is the posing, everything else is just bad. The angle and composition is really awkward and confusing; why are the rebels out of focus? Why isn't it the other way around? Why is the angle so extreme and just overall awkward? Is it being taken by an incapacitated person with a handheld camera or something? Also the scene itself just sucks. Everyone's firing simultaneously from a stupidly close range and (apparently) missing every shot. None of it makes sense even from a hollywood action film theme perspective.

    also Hunter890:

    It might not be practical (one handed shooting in general isn't) but it's fully possible without injury. The worst even a .500 S&W could do is sprain your wrist and fly out of your hand.

    Since when did the Combine switch their rocket launching APCs for outdated tanks?
    Maybe their RPG spewing APCs were too busy dealing with the Freeman.

    hell we've even seen videos of people one-handing .357 effortlessly and .454 casull without injuring themselves, how the fuck can you be dense enough to still believe yourselves? maybe you should donate your brains to science so they can figure it out?

    You are making a big deal out of something so little. Besides, you could have said that I was wrong in a nicer way. Maybe then this shit wouldn't happen.

    But no, you had to be as rude and impolite as you could be.

    The way he fired the revolver just looked wrong, that's all there is to it. You could have said it better.

    Maybe if you get so easily offended, you shouldn't make stupid assumptions. That way, nobody even needs to correct you!

    I don't sugarcoat things because I'm not a big whiny baby. If you are, that's not my problem.

    Do you normally call someone out and insult them when they make small assumptiona like this?

    Oh wait I think we all know the answer to that one.

    Shouldn't the M249 one be the finishing blow since he's dual wielding machine guns as opposed to assault rifles?

    Yeah, but don't the M249's have a higher rate of fire? (which means higher recoil, right?)
