Clarify with surgeon: Not sure how recently you had procedure. Assuming you are concerned about the butt of the gun on the shoulder area, and positioning of your arms- clarify with your surgeon what you are planning to do (ie gun to left shoulder area and stabilizing barrel with right hand etc) before any activity.
