Would firing a gun dislocate your shoulder if it were not for your wrist?
Firing a gun could potentially cause shoulder injury, but it would not likely result in a dislocation solely due to the absence of wrist support. Dislocation occurs when the humerus bone pops out of the shoulder joint, and this is primarily influenced by the anatomy of the shoulder joint itself, rather than the wrist. However, improper shooting technique or excessive recoil could contribute to shoulder strain or injury.

It would seem that it would be called that but when dealing with the arms and legs, the positional anatomy only involves the attachment to the body.

And the shoulder joint is proximal to the elbow. You must always use two things to compare. In this case the elbow and the shoulder.
