DOL OWCP denied my claim after the doctor diagnosised it as carpal tunnel syndrome DOL stated that the injury could not have caused carpal tunnel syndrome is there any recourse?
You have not given enough information. Carpal tunnel is an occupational disease. I think that is what it is called. It is caused from repetitive motion. It is not caused from one specific injury. If you had a specific injury it could not have caused the carpel tunnel. However, you may still have an OWCP claim for the carpel tunnel if you return to your doctor and ask them what caused the carpel tunnel . If there is a repetitive component to your job,i.e keying mail? Keyboard? this may be the cause of carpel tunnel, then it is indeed a claim for OWCP. You did not say what the injury was or what the results were but the carpel tunnel was just something the doctor happened to find when he examined you after the accident . You have had it all along , not just because of the accident.

Can you get carpal tunnel from shooting guns?
Carpel tunnel is a repetitive motion disorder, an injury caused by repeating a motion many many times, usually in a way that is not natural for your hands and wrists. Typing on a keyboard or fingering a guitar for hours at a time can certainly lead to carpel tunnel, but shooting guns doesn't seem a likely cause. The action is not normally repeated many, many times. Using a simulated gun in a computer game or even paint ball or Air-soft guns in a manner that involves hundreds or thousands of trigger pulls could, over time, cause carpel tunnel, particularly if you hold your trigger hand in a awkward position.
