A member asked:

What are the risks, symptoms, limits for gunfire trauma related to brain damage and retna detachment? i have a live fire team and wish to cover all possible health risks.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Your : Your question may not be getting answered because it is a bit unclear. Can you rephrase it? Maybe break it down into several, more specific questions, like: "can the recoil of a high-powered rifle cause retinal detachment?".
