Might not be a problem. I have carpal tunnel syndrome, plus some other
computer related aches and pains. However I can still put in a couple of
hours putting lead down range without it bothering my hands. I shoot .38,
.357 and 9mm. The wrist braces do help. When my hands are giving me a lot
of trouble I wear them while working on the computer.
... You haven't had fun unless the magazine's empty.
