Improving Your Shooting #3: Trigger Control

[wadealancarlson]

thats not rob you losers

[ryanalexanderko]

Mister "garand champion" isn't even using the target grip thumb rest...and wrong trigger finger position. /fail

[firebirdude2]

For the record, you're not suppose to use that as a slide release. The manual says to use the "slingshot method" to chamber your rounds.

[strassersh]

@firebirdude2 Thats correct. Using the "slide stop" (not intended to be a slide release) will wear the contact surface on the bolt and will eventually result in failure of the bolt to lock back after the last shot.

[marshallgibson89]

looks like an ugly version of a P04/08 Luger.

[cartoonconn]

i like those grips

[djdonis]

Thumb should not be pointing up, trigger finger should not be pressing with the pad (7 pm pull). Amateur at best

[kentawagi]

yah slow but accurate.. speed will follow

[crazydriver1978]

how do you bend your thumb like that? that must be uncomfortable. Me personally, I'd rest my thumb on the grip's thumb rest.

[baldbollocks]

Thumb should not be pointing up and finger tip pad on the trigger

[Blanckmeister]

Looks like he is shooting pretty damn good to me for one handed stability. My hands shake so I usually use two hands, even with .22s.

[sabaths1fan]

This video is full of misinformation,even though it has very little information. Its just you shooting. Wheres the teaching?

[monstered66]

Hey is it loud when shoot?

[Axbent]

every pistol should have a trigger stop, w o it its much harder!

[untouchblz]

same technique goes for revolvers?

[lolnchips1337]

Why has this video got such low ratings?

What he's doing in this video is not wrong at all.

[SuperNongrata]

do guns has batteries ??

[beexsama]

Looks like you are using your knuckle...should be using the "web" or middle of the front of your finger. This will help prevent a jerk to the left. Makes a big difference when firing "long" range (50-100 yards).

[Flumphinator]

@beexsama

Actually, what he's doing is perfectly acceptable.

[beexsama]

Just a personal opinion...but to each their own. As long as you can shoot good, I see no problem.

[rjgnwdc]

I see exactly what he's showing trigger reset I do the same thing with my Ruger MKIII512

[FUCKYOUTHENBITCH]

tip of finger on lowest point of trigger = greatest mechanical advantage. Using the finger joint can result in shots being placed off to the right; and conversely, using too little trigger finger can result in POI shifting to the left. The finger position is dictated somewhat by hand position, make sure the pistol is in line with your arm and not canted to one side.

[deathproof187]

thumb would be lost on a slab sliding

[rackycurva]

i dunno, i shoot with the pad of my index finger, not the joint. "to each his own" i guess.

[Blackfork6]

I like the newer versions better, this heel release is not very conveniant.

[gunlover19112]

now thats how its sopsed to be done!!! im tired ofseing people in youtube just jerking the triger and even after i tell them not too they still do but they then wonder "why are my shots not even on the fucking papper?"

[Blackfork6]

@gunlover19112 Two points left to finish Distinguished Pistol badge. It's shot at 25 and 50 yards.

[MiThThArEeL]

oldschool ruger

[uberti77]

what do you have to say about the mag release button?

[TheLizardKing1967]

I just bought a Browning 22 pistol buckmark RX PRO Target shooting gun. I HIGHLY recommend this gun. Don't use Remington ammo. It misfires. Buy good quality ammo.

[Blackfork6]

or just get the proper grip and let the finger settle out where it is most comfortable.

[RevolverLover101]

@Blackfork6 i like your answer

[batbawls]

The people that voted down this video don't get the purpose of this video. They don't understand what you are doing. :) 5 stars.

[soccom8341576]

That looks like an awesome gun to shoot.

[Blackfork6]

Ruger autoloaders are pretty reliable guns, even the old ones. This one shoots better tahn I can shoot it. I use it for Bullseye pistol competition. It will jam with some ammo, but shoots most OK. I'm using Wold Match Target right now for the consistancy and accuracy. Pistol loves it.

[jburawski]

I Loved your Video. I also Love that gun! Does it ever Jam on you? I had a revolver all my life, but now I see these Semi Auto Pistols and they look great. Please let me know how satisified with it you are. Thanks for your time!

[TheRealestEver]

finally a real ruger, and not some lame fagsoft crap

[Blackfork6]

It's a really old Ruger Mk1 Target .22 LR.

[Mafiamadefilms]

@Blackfork6 Did you buy it online?

[adio222]

Awesome teqnique. is that a p38?

[buzzclark]

Man that Ruger looks ancient. But they shoot great. What do you think about the S&W 22A? Thanks. JAMES.

[Blackfork6]

Pistol Bullseye competition shooters fire using one hand at 25 and 50 yards, so I'm used to it. Otherwise, so folks can see what I am doing! This is a really important technique to master in shooting, and almost nobody pays any attention to it.

[evilkate666]

why only one hand?

[CrippledPidgeon]

why not? :P

Okay fine, I assume he's holding one handed so it's easier to see what he's doing with the trigger. A standard thumbs forward grip (normally used for higher powered handgun rounds, but works just fine for pretty much everything) would obscure most of the trigger from the camera.
