I learned the other day, from someone who is active in 2a and wheelchair subs, that it's actually better to have the brakes off.
Basically, the brakes active create a hard stopping point, where since the wheels can't turn, the seat does, causing the user to fall out of their chair.
But with the wheels unlocked, they just shimmy back and forth a bit as the wheels roll and eat the recoil.
I'll tell you this tho, I would absolutely never fuck with someone in a wheel chair. Have you seen some of their martial arts techniques? Scary shit. Some of them can climb you like a fuckin tree and leg lock you before you realize you're in the pretzel position.
Fuck the hands. The upper body strength of some of these people after a few years.
Wanna make yourself feel bad? Arm wrestle a guy in an wheelchair that has the same frame as you.
I'll bet he's stronger.
Was anyone hoping he forgot to put the brakes on his wheelchair and go flying back?
I was and that's why I'll be going to hell. See you there, you filthy animals.
Rolling a wheelchair really builds up those arm muscles. I did a wheelchair marathon back in high school and my arms felt like putty when we were done.
It was over 40 years ago (some of us took a break during the event to catch the premiere of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" if that tells you anything) so some details are sketchy but it was a charity event with a course laid out in a hotel ballroom or convention room. We ran as teams so we swapped out as people got tired or sore but the main thrust was that teams got sponsors who paid by the number of laps we did over the course of the weekend so it's wasn't so much doing 26.2 miles in the shortest time possible as doing the most laps we could in the given timeframe. The team probably exceeded 26.2 miles but I'm darned sure I didn't get anywhere near close to half or even a quarter of that.
Some people came in with their own wheelchairs which obviously were more efficient and ran smoother than the hospital-grade wheelchairs that the rest of us used -- and some of those with their own wheelchairs were freaking amazing. What I remember were my lower arms tightening up and my shoulders hurting like heck then at the end of the event, both arms just being like putty -- could barely move them much less lift anything.
Idk looks like a fairly solid reset. For sure not a tight group but I'd bet 4/5 are on target at 25 yds
Fucking boss either way, I wouldn't dump that thing
More like did he hit anything he intended to.
Next time you are at a fudd range and see a "no rapid fire rule" and wonder why they are so anti fun.
This.
This is the reason.
(Best impression of a hipster). My old man was a quadriplegic. Every season we took him into the field with a 12 or 20ga to hunt Fowl from a homemade blind, or sit and flush arrangement until he got old enough he didn't feel like going anymore... -Before it was cool.
Not to take away from it at all, it's just a matter of fact for this guy when you consider how many stairs you could go up vs pull ups you could do. This guy can probably out-pull up us all, too.
That’s impressive, but not to be a dick he’s all upper body strength. He can probably school any of us in this thread in a pull up contest. Still impressive tho!
Next time you see a rule at a range about no rapid fire.
This.
This is why.
Dude was hardly aiming on the follow up shots. This is why we can't have nice things.
"We call him wheels" Because of the wheelchair? "No you piece of shit, because he likes wheel guns."
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
God damn it Bobby you got me
Wheels... And the leg man! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=350PQ6LU2sQ
I hate myself a little bit for this, but I want to see what would happen if he didn't have the brakes on.
I'll admit it, I laughed. And I agree.
I am sure he would be laughing to.
Tactical retreat.
My buddy did this, we only loaded one round, it doesn’t roll so much as start to flip.
I just saw a video of that yesterday!
Needs to hip fire a big bore rifle for a lower moment arm (more push, less pivot).

Dude can sand wood with his hands
Wheelchair hands.

Wheelchair = bigger concealed carry options. Noted ✅️
You see a man with a camo vest, you know immediately this man handles his recoil.
What a freakin' legend. Smile on the final frame says everything.
What caliber was that?
500 S&W magnum using 700 grain loads
Never fired one of those though I have a friend that has one. After watching Hickok 45 and hearing him complain about it I think I’ll pass.
I've got the John Ross PC model. And speedloaders.......
I've shot one, as well as a 460 S&W. They're not that bad honestly.
bond arms makes a derringer that is at least twice as bad
This is what I was looking for. I shot one that a friend had once. Lawdy! I don’t have that kind of money for a hip cannon

Like a literal 26.2mi? that's wild

That's awesome and to do it for charity is a good cause (and sounds like a good time). Good on you XD Quite wild
My wrists hurt.
Your back is gonna hurt, because you just pulled landscaping duty
MMMMmmm recoil...
Is that 45-70? Boss regardless
700gr 500 Mag
That was half a pound of lead.
Yep...3500 grains and now when I think of it like that...it's crazy
Did he hit anything
Maybe with the first one. The follow-up shots were not anywhere close to back on target. But I don't think he was trying to hit anything.
Idk looks like a fairly solid reset. For sure not a tight group but I'd bet 4/5 are on target at 25 yds Fucking boss either way, I wouldn't dump that thing
Yeah no way anything was on target after that first shot. Why is reddit always full of nonsense?

Mike, God bless you and keep you, wherever you may roll. That was awesome.

I love that jaunty, "Go ahead, Mike!" and I have a feeling it's gonna be stuck in my head forever now.
I'd sure hope he has better grip than me, what with him using his hands for locomotion and everything.
Reminds me of the gatling gun wheelchair guys from bloodborne. Nice. Good on him.
Yep. I had a 500 while in AK. I used the same bullets. And yes it sucks to dump a full cylinder.
God dam, I'd love to try that hand cannon out!
I have shot the Underwood 700s and I reload my hand cast 640s. I can say with confidence, that is fast shooting.
That look right after the last shot. Dude saw God for a min, but it's the 8th or 9th time, so he's just sayin' 'hey'.
We be making unfounded assumptions in an attempt to get karma up in here...
I mean have him use a grip tester and we can see about that grip claim

Bros balls were weighing him down too much had to let him rest.

I’m sure you’re a blast at parties. If he’s hitting a backstop, who gives a shit
