A lower power Recoil Spring might not strip the Bullets out of the Magazine easily. But, if it worked it would be a cheap fix.
If you did that you would also need to remember not to shot the full power loads in it.

Install a Muzzle Brake? they decrease the Muzzle flip (sort of levering your Hand and Wrist) upwards; and the Brake directs the push of the Gun to a more straighter backwards push. I have no experience with them.

A more expensive option is if you could convert it to 9mm.

A cheap but harder way to would be to lift some Weights or other excersizes to build up the Muscle Mass in your wrists and Arms to dampen the reciol.

Prove it. Make a political hack comment like that, back it up with truth. If you were to really investigate the problem, you'll find that it isn't at the Federal level, but at how each individual school district manages their finances. I've been involved in two different school districts in my adult life, and can easily show how wasted money is the cause for begging for more money...lack of funding is rarely the culprit.

I believe you will find that tapping athletic funds is more of a third rail than cutting SS and Medicare. it won't happen.

What I was attempting to show is that the present Administration that got re-elected was quick to speak up about a Gun Ban but when they had the chance to do better also short changed School Security.

The Reupblicans did the same but are less likely to look to a Gun Ban as a slolution to School Security.

I am supposed to be a Democrat; but what I see is that the Republicans want to cut the Federal Funding and leave that Funding up to the States.
That could be a good or bad thing depending on the State you live in.

If you live in a small State that does not have much revenue it would hurt education let a lone School Security.

Private schools could include security costs in the tuition feees
