My buddy's got one of those, and he's such a masochist, he took off the rubber grips and put wood grips on it. Shooting that thing with .357 Magnum hurts more than any other handgun I've fired. Ever.

Glutton for punishment? (new revolver purchase)

The only thing I want to know is
Where is Mistress Fifi's Hous of Pain? Is that in New Hampshire somewhere?![[devil]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/015.gif "Devil [devil]")
I'm unsure as Ayoob travels ALOT! Haha, if there is such a place, he knows and ain't sayin'!
I struggled with M&P340's mighty kick myself, and almost gave up.
My rationale was: If you going to carry it, you gotta train with it. A lot.
Don't fool yourself - your joints won't get used to the pain. Rather, you'll end up with a permanently inflamed joint.
Here's what I did to cure the problem:
1. Went to Walmart, bought this thing ($5 or something):
2. Cut out a short piece
The red electrical tape prevents the trigger from slipping to the right.
3. Forgot about the pain.
Now I can train as much as I need w/o any pain.
If, God forbid, I ever need to use it for self defense purpose, well, I think I'll suffer through a cylinder or two without my contraption.
Good luck.

Oh, lord, another masochist.Send a PM to JayG; he's got one and isn't shy about letting [STRIKE]suckers[/STRIKE] others try it.

How is the Taurus "ribber" grip for this situation? Don't they make a lightweight revolver as well?
How can this hurt more than a .44 or the .460 or the .500, even with their higher weight? What about the .44 special snub nose?

Eh... Aren't pictures showing? I posted 4 pictures.

Compared to these a full sized 44mag is nothing. The 500 only hurts more with serious EddieCoyle loads, and even then I think I'd choose that over one of these. The 500 is like getting punched in the palm, whereas this is more like getting hit by a ball-peen hammer.
There's certain realities when you mix a high power cartridge with a lightweight gun - even .38's can hurt. I love the look on peoples faces who claim to be "recoil junkies", when they shoot a 158gr Buffalo Bore from my 642CT... It's like God sent your hand to hell....
