the question I have is can you wear a wrist band while shooting. The wrist band is the kind used for preventing injuries, about 4 inches long with a diameter of about 3 inches.
thank you

Not on the shooting hand under ISSF. See ISSF rule 8.4.2.1.1 :-
"Neither the grip nor any part of the pistol may be extended or constructed in any way that would allow it to touch beyond the hand. The wrist must remain visibly free when the pistol is held in the normal firing position. Bracelets, wristwatches, wristbands, or similar items are prohibited on the hand, and arm, which holds the pistol."

Perhaps for a similar reason that some rifle shooters now wear a glove on the shooting hand (?)Richard H wrote:Better question is why would you want to wear a glove on your shooting hand? What do you think the wearing of a glove will do for you?warmhands wrote:Ok, how about a soft fingerless glove which does not cover the wrist?
