This video by Coach from Tactical Hyve, featuring a Navy SEAL, details the critical technique of shooting from the trigger reset. The core principle is to maintain trigger pressure after a shot, release just enough to feel the reset, and then re-engage the trigger to the wall, preparing for an immediate follow-up shot. This method minimizes unnecessary finger movement, allowing for faster and more accurate subsequent shots, provided a solid grip is maintained.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the key to faster follow-up shots?

The key to faster follow-up shots is mastering the trigger reset technique. This involves holding the trigger to the rear after a shot, releasing it just enough to feel the reset, and then re-engaging the trigger to the wall, preparing for an immediate next shot without excessive finger movement.

How do you practice trigger reset effectively?

Practice trigger reset primarily through dry fire. Ensure the firearm is unloaded. Hold the trigger to the rear, then slowly release until you feel the reset. Take up the slack again to the wall. Repeat this process, focusing on the tactile and audible feedback of the reset.

Why is maintaining a good grip important for trigger reset?

A solid grip is crucial because it stabilizes the firearm. Without it, the gun will move excessively after each shot, making it difficult to find the trigger reset point accurately and prepare for the next shot quickly. A consistent grip ensures the firearm returns to a predictable position.

What is a common mistake when trying to shoot faster?

A common mistake is releasing the trigger completely after each shot and then 'flicking' it forward to fire again. This often leads to poor accuracy and slower follow-up times. Instead, focus on working the trigger from the reset point.
