[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1530508, member: 30902"] To the bolded. Having trained literally thousands of shooters both military and civilian this is certainly not true in most cases. Flinching is all mental and is both most common and pronounced with people who are convinced they are shooting a heavy recoiling monster of some sort. Only in the worst cases where someone has literally been gunshyed have I seen the flinch transfer from the boomers to lighter recoiling rifles/shotguns. It usually starts with someone who has been shooting for a considerable amount of time with light recoiling weapons who gets's shocked/surprised and "hurt" the first time the pick up something with considerable recoil and just aren't prepared for it or holding it in tight so it knocks the snot out of them. Just a handful of rounds fired like that can create the problem. [/QUOTE]
