Stoeger, a renowned competition shooter, demonstrates how allowing the support thumb to float off the frame, rather than applying pressure, leads to more predictable firearm performance. This method is shown to be effective across various platforms, including Atlas 2011, Sig Sauer P320, and P226, and helps prevent common malfunctions like the slide failing to lock back.
