Videos tagged with Trigger Reset

This video emphasizes the critical importance of follow-through in firearm training, specifically the 'realign and reset' phase after each shot. Instructor Pat Mac calls out shooters who rush this process, highlighting that neglecting it hinders proficiency, especially when engaging multiple targets or shooting steel.

This video emphasizes the critical importance of consistent trigger control for accurate shooting, especially for beginners. It introduces dry-fire exercises as a fundamental technique to develop proper trigger pull, sight alignment, and recoil management without live ammunition. The instructor demonstrates how to identify and correct trigger anticipation by focusing on the 'wall' of the trigger pull and maintaining sight picture through the break.

This video provides three essential shooting drills for individuals with limited time on the range, focusing on practical application for everyday carry firearms. The instructor emphasizes returning to fundamentals like sight alignment and trigger press at 25 yards, practicing the draw stroke from the holster with proper grip and presentation, and integrating shooting with movement to cover. The drills are designed to build muscle memory for stressful situations and improve overall shooting proficiency.

This video reviews the TriggerTech Ace trigger, specifically a prototype for the Glock 43X. The instructor highlights its short travel, well-defined wall, and crisp reset, deeming it the best aftermarket trigger for the platform. The review includes a demonstration of its function with live fire and dry fire.

This video debunks the common teaching of 'pinning the trigger to the wall' and timing shots with footfalls during shooting on the move. The instructor emphasizes a fluid, single-motion trigger press once the sights are aligned, separating upper body shooting mechanics from lower body movement. He advocates for consistent grip and trigger control, suggesting dry fire to expose grip flaws. Practical drills like 'Bar Hop' and 'Track the Azone' are presented to promote seamless movement and shooting.

This video demonstrates how to improve shooting accuracy through dry fire practice using the Laser Ammo Flashbolt system. The system replaces the standard BCG, allowing for laser-based trigger pull and reset simulation, enabling users to practice trigger control and speed drills at home without expending ammunition. It highlights the importance of dry fire for consistent shot placement.

This video, featuring insights from Joel Park, addresses the common question of whether focusing on the entire A-zone is more efficient for fast shooting. Park argues against this 'loser mentality,' advocating for precise visual focus on the aiming point, even at speed. He demonstrates a drill comparing focused versus broad visual acquisition, highlighting that precise focus, while seemingly slower, leads to greater consistency and accountability. The video also provides actionable advice on using rules in dry fire to improve trigger control and reduce over-confirmation.

This video discusses the mechanics of firearm triggers, specifically comparing striker-fired and double-action systems. It highlights that the initial takeup on a striker-fired trigger is not significantly different from the first pull of a double-action trigger, especially if the latter is in halfcock. The speaker emphasizes that subsequent shots on a striker-fired system involve a shorter reset and sear trip, resulting in less overall work for the shooter.

This guide details how to properly dry fire an M&P 1.0 pistol. Unlike some other firearms, the M&P 1.0 requires a magazine to be inserted for the trigger mechanism to reset. This is due to an internal metal piece that must be engaged by the magazine. Following these steps ensures safe and effective dry fire practice for trigger control.

This guide details a comprehensive dry fire training method utilizing the DryFire Mag, SureStrike laser cartridge, and Laser Ammo reactive targets. As demonstrated by an experienced instructor, this system allows for continuous trigger reset practice and immediate feedback via laser hits on electronic targets, making it an efficient and engaging way to improve pistol shooting skills at home.

This review of the Kel-Tec P15 Metal 9mm highlights significant trigger reset issues and malfunctions during initial shooting impressions and ammunition testing. The reviewer experienced dead triggers and false clicks, suggesting a potential mechanical problem with the firearm's trigger mechanism or striker. While the metal frame version offers a potentially more shootable experience than its polymer counterpart, these reliability concerns cast doubt on its suitability for defensive use.

This guide details a transition shooting dry fire drill, emphasizing realistic training scenarios over stationary range practice. It covers fundamental mechanics like 'eyes move first,' provides a step-by-step drill progression, and recommends tools like the Dry Fire Mag and shot timer for enhanced training. Instruction is provided by an experienced speaker advocating for dynamic, gunfight-relevant practice.
