A really beautiful and meaningful job.  You've made a huge difference in that lady's life.

Thank you all for the very nice comments , the project did take some time to figure out, like  the loading  and unloading and all the gun functions.  She needed to be able  do them her self. it was a fun project she was a doll to work with. I have other medical things made of leather a leg lifter for a  for a lady i met while i was in therapy. and a shoulder brace i did for myself the doc loved it. Thanks again for the comments.

So, let me see if I got this right: the prosthesis for the right hand allows her to hold the pistol, and the one for the left pulls the trigger?

Nice work!

What did you use to take the moulds you show in the top picture?

Hi and sorry for the time it took me to get back to you . Yes you understand how the prosthetic work's the molding materials used i got from" Reynolds advanced materials"  Boston Mass . I used Alja Safe to get the molds for her hand's then used a very fast setting epoxy i'm not sure but i think it was a 3000 set's like a rock in seconds . hope this helps and thanks for the question .
