    The shakes

    You know, you're a pistol shooter, turn up on the range, not had coffee for hours and yet, there's a tremor there. I had this on Sunday so after 20 shots I put the pistol down and did some vigorous flexing and extending of my arms and wrists including rotation from the shoulder. Result: tremor reduced.

    Can anyone recommend anything better?

    Not so vigorous flexing and stretching - slowly and with power like Tai Chi - steady slightly deeper breathing - close eyes and consciously relax muscle groups starting with facial muscles and working down. (Do not chant "Om")
    True freedom includes the freedom to make mistakes or do foolish things and bear the consequences.

    Too many guns, or not enough time?

    I find luxury just about adequate.

    Tremors when not drinking coffee suggests a coffee addiction
    or better said; caffeine
    I'd either keep drinking coffee to prevent tremors or slowly stop with coffee or greatly reduce intake so you dont have tremors either
