I've shot one before, and it's not as bad as you might think.
So you must have strong hands and good form.
But I think my point is valid. These hand cannons that some people have are not the choice for small handed folks or new shooters. As we used to say as kids “bring the biggest gun you can hit something with”.
We need to steer the novice to a firearm that is appropriate for their size and skill rather than ego serving.
