Why do most men introducing women to shooting not train them to hold the gun properly?She almost fell on her a**. Why do most women lean back when shooting?
Not guilty, but WTF, she's never shot a gun, first time eating jerky?!?! And what kinda Ahole gives a petite chic a 12 gauge for her first ever gun to shoot?? Someone that doesn't want her to get into shooting apparently!!
*edit - the boxes infront of her in the pic look to be high brass too.....or at least all the blue federal shell boxes that I have are high brass.
I was going to say the exact same thing.
What dumbass gives some 100 pound gal a shotgun for her very first time shooting ?
Glad she gave it a go though.
I hope Grace takes the gun thing to a higher level than Howie which only got a gun license because Kahr Arms gave him a pistol. Then took so long getting his permit cause no one ponied up for his license fees.
Most people arch their back and stand on their heels when the fire a gun for the first time. Men do it as much as women. I don't know what that seems natural to people, but it's almost universal.
I don't know how I'd get any actual work done if I worked with anyone so gorgeous.
I'd pretty much go broke replacing keyboards - they'd all short-circuit from me drooling on them.
She's a good looking girl but she has that high school/college girl vocal fry voice that drives me friggin crazy. It seems like every female in America under 30 has it. Where did it come from?

It's as bad or worse than "up speak" as mentioned above by Machinehead

It's because most people don't have the lower back and shoulder muscles to hold an 8 pound mass steady at arms length.

The phenomenon KD is talking about though even applies to women holding a .22 pistol that might weigh less than a pound, they still rock back. It's not the weight, it's some kind of weird ergnomic "tic" that people have when they hold guns for the first time. It "feels natural" to do stupid shit like that even though it's terrible technique. The weight probably amplifies the effect/desire, yes, I can agree with that, but I don't think that's where it emanates from. People pick up a gun and they haven't even had like 2 seconds to get fatigued and they're already rocked back.

It's because most people don't have the lower back and shoulder muscles to hold an 8 pound mass steady at arms length. It's immediately strenuous and painful and they're holding their breath and wiggling all over the place from muscle fatigue. If they lean back it centers the mass over their feet and reduces the strain. I'm only 135 pounds so firing my 20" barrel 590 is pretty awkward. The "slow-push" recoil sends me backwards so I have to get my torso way forward of my feet and the gun gets heavy quick even though I lift weights. It must be brutal for a lightweight female with limited upper body strength.
I don't know how I'd get any actual work done if I worked with anyone so gorgeous.

Well that must be some kind of a ban record
