This video from Joel Park addresses the common practice of using thumbs to manage recoil on handguns, particularly with aftermarket accessories like 'gas pedals' or slide stop shelves. Park argues against actively pushing or resting thumbs on these devices, stating it can negatively steer the muzzle and compromise grip stability. He advocates for a natural thumb resting position that doesn't actively input force, emphasizing consistent hand-to-pistol connection for recoil management.
