If it’s a Glock 37/8/9 it won’t.

Doing a dogpile search, it looks like there are some available. What pistol ya got?

Oh man! I didn't know there was such an extraordinary range down in Oak Ridge! I shoot at Unaka Rod&Gun. 216 yards is the max, to a rock face at the end of the pistol/rifle range. I shoot rocks on the face ... the feedback of dust puffs is rewarding to my old brain. We are putting in a pistol range. Have a nice skeet range with four pits/stadiums for audiences when competitions happen.

I used to know a guy in college from Oak Ridge ... Ed Green. I wonder ...

Nice range!

As to the Mosin nagant and the broken collar bone, They can do that!
Get a “limb saver” butt pad

I hope your collar bone aint fractured.

A recoil pad is a necessity for the Mosin on the range.

(It also helps in adding some length to the short stock.)

I put Limbsavers on my muzzleloader and Mossy 500. Both had bricks for pads. Makes a big difference. You still get pushed around, but not stung.

I was shooting 147 grain milsurp in my Mosin-Nagant, which of course is 7.62x54r. Although it can bite, I think I brought a lot of it on myself. With all the new stuff I was being exposed to in the clinic, I think I just neglected the basics of keeping the rifle firmly planted on my shoulder. Had a little trouble with the 2nd stripper clip during one rapid-fire segment, and I think I just got in a little too much of a hurry.

Still, enjoyed the heck out of it, and will keep at it.

I cannot imagine shooting the Mosin Nagant or the 8mm Mauser prone.

It hurts just thinking about it.
I roll with the recoil. Yeah lose accuracy, but My arm doesn’t fall off LoL

As 50 attests, get the limb saver

Limbsaver makes a universal pad that can be fitted by a gunsmith. Or, if you have an oscillating belt sander, you can do it yourself. It's about 1 hour of labor, so the cost shouldn't be bad.

The Nagants and Mausers had steel butt plates they called “scull crushers”

They are brutal on your shoulder too LoL

Now I see your problem.

I’m not seeing any mag loaders for the G37.

Yep. It’s a real problem trying to load those last couple rounds. The loader that Glock makes is not very good.

Never shot one, but I heard enuff stories now that I'd think twice about shooting one without my strap-on recoil pad.
