Are women's shoulder bones different from men's and is this why they tend to throw underhand rather than overhand?

There is no difference between the shoulder bones of a man and a woman. Typically men do have a wider frame but the shoulders are still built the same way. I don't personally know the reason women tend to throw underhand, perhaps there is another anatomical reason that isn't skeletal. I think that it may simply be that society views underhanded throwing as more feminine.

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.

What is the overhand serve in volleyball?
On YouTube there plenty of videos of how to serve. See related links, below, for an excellent example of various serving techniques, from underhand to overhand, both standing and stepping serves, with and without spin. If you're a complete beginner to the sport, start with underhand serving and get comfortable with the motion and weight of the ball. When you're ready to start overhand serving, start with the stationary serve then work up to the stepping serve before adding spin to the serve. The secret to good serving is simply to throw high and forward, whilst stepping and jumping to meet the ball on its descent, forward of the base line (without touching the court until the ball is hit, obviously). Hit the ball with the heel of your hand to gain maximum punch, at the highest point you can reach and with maximum effort. The higher and more forward you can jump the better, as the ball can effectively be propelled downwards over the net, rather than up and over the net; and the faster you can serve, the more difficult it will be for your opponents to recover the ball for a setup and return. Of course serving the ball is one thing, serving with accuracy is quite another, but that will come with practice. Good luck and, above all, enjoy yourself.

What is the common idiomatic saying for get the cold shoulder?
Your question does not quite make sense as stated. The phrase "get the cold shoulder" is an idiom, so there is no point in asking what is the idiom for it. You might want to know what it means, however. To give someone the cold shoulder is to socially reject or ostracize that person, to refuse to speak to that person. When you turn away from someone, they will then be facing your shoulder rather than your face, that is the origin of the idiom.
