Firearms Instruction - Shootrite
DBV Episode 15
In the May 30, 2023 feature in this service, entitled “Editor’s Notebook: Rule 3 No More?” I related my response to an ‘expert’ who opined that that whole “finger off the trigger until sights are on the target” thing was not only not good, but it was a threat to the officer’s safety.
Bless his heart.
His argument was that we needed better selection of recruits (true) and better (and higher) training and retention standards (likewise true). His allegation that Rule 3 causes one to compromise grip enough to promote gun grabs and that an officer may be unable to quickly enough find the trigger to get to shooting.
