Susan:

When they first started allowing large caliber handgun hunting (.22 pistols have been allowed forever for small game.), I thought it was stupid, unnecessary, and self-serving for the handgun manufacturers. Now that I have bad legs and find it hard to use both hands with a rifle, it makes more sense for me.

If I were able to find fellow hunters that would traverse the woods with me and my limitations, a handgun braced against a tree or hiking stick with one hand while the other hand is used to brace and keep me from falling makes a lot of sense.

One-armed individuals that want to hunt can do so easier with a long barreled handgun than they could with a rifle.
