Sure, it doesn’t matter how a gun fits you. That’s logical.

Since the women folk in your clan are impervious to recoil and have the arm and finger reach of an orangutan, I suggest that you get them started on a 20mm Lahti converted into a pistol.

I do not buy the argument that the 1911 is too big or has too much recoil. Ditto for the Garand and the M-14. A hundred years ago Americans were smaller on average today.

The FAA requires pilots use oxygen over 10,500 feet. Coloradans do aerobics at over 12,500 feet. Skiing, hiking, off road motorcycles etc. All day long. Flatlanders turn blue sitting in a chair at 12,500 feet. Perhaps that makes us less recoil sensitive.
