J-BAR #18287 Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Range of motion of your thumbs is critical to successfully shooting duelist style. 140 degrees of thumb range is enviable. I can’t shoot Frontiersman any more because of arthritis in my thumbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just keep laughing to myself that everyone is sitting around measuring their hands and perhaps others on the area are thinking what @Perro Del Diablo posted. 5 hours ago, J-BAR #18287 said: Range of motion of your thumbs is critical to successfully shooting duelist style. 140 degrees of thumb range is enviable.
