The old verbiage about females and small males not handling recoil is totally garbage. I've trained thousands of people over the years in LE and the military. The size of the person has no bearing. I've had really big people who were terrible shots and difficult to train. I've trained small females who were able to easily handle any of the large calibers. A person who gets the proper training and learn the basic techniques size does NOT matter.
People who spread that BS makes me wonder if they're trying to compensate for their own shortcomings because the facts sure don't bear out the talk.
