The break has ports drilled rearward that tends to pull the weapon forward. If it didn't have a break I wouldn't own it because you couldn't shoot it.

My Son is in the Army Special Forces. I bought the 460 prior to his 4th deployment to Iraq. We went on a family hunt a week before he left and introduced him to it. He was concerned about injury and his little sister asured him if she could he could.

It is fun watching the look on fellow shooters faces at the range
when she sets up.

Like any loving parent, I wouldn't let her hurt herself.
