Let me know if you folks are interested. This would take quite some time and a great deal of thought and input from medical and rehab experts."

Re: Cool
I found an article by Walt Rauch that covers an IDPA club that held a classifier for some wheelchair-enabled shooters. It was a short one published in Handguns Magazine and was evidently set up by Frank James who wrote Effective Handgun Defense.
What is Project One Million: Texas?
The "Project" is a grassroots effort to increase the number of Texans who are members of the National Rifle Association from 250.000 to 1,000,000.

Re: Cool
Been lurking here for a year or two.
Count me in, too. I'm in the Houston/Spring area.
I am classified as a "disabled" shooter
Heck, I was never "enabled" either!
Birth defects of both hands, wrists & forearms. No thumbs. Use both hands to shoot but I am an "obviously" right-handed for practical purposes.
Funny story:
Years ago I shot with an IDPA group. When I had to leave the group after a couple of years, one of the guys told me of their impressions of my very first night of shooting with them. He said the gang (A truly grand group of IOFs and rascals! They taught me most of what I now know to be useful.) couldn't decide to stay around and see what happened, or run for cover! NOBODY wanted to stand around and watch, but they didn't want to miss the "show."
Back to the thread: I'd like to try to transfer some of my personal experience to someone else who may profit.
God bless ya'll!
