Re: trigger finger
That's not the only unconventional idea that Mr Aim Point Shooting espouses.

Re: trigger finger
It's not instinctive. It is, I would a say...a finer motor skill. Under SNS stress (adrenaline dump etc...) fine motor skills deteriorate. The ergonomics of modern combat handguns are such that the index finger is naturally aligned with the trigger...making it the least complicated answer to the trigger pulling question.bdickens wrote:How come no armed professionals use that method?
