Movies, finger off the trigger!

[Meeks36]

Saw a video of a man shooting his nards off with a pistol. And guess what? He had his finger on the trigger when it happened. I think movies should be accurate. Like keeping finger off the trigger.

Coming from the USCG when I was on a boarding team in the late 70s I was the shot gun man and was first on deck to secure the area for the rest of the party. Finger off trigger is only for the police. Special operators in the military always have their fingers on the trigger otherwise they will be dead. Movies are politically motivated to show finger off the trigger. If I draw my CCW I intend to use it and have my finger on the trigger. Also, I always carry one in the chamber cocked and ready to go.

Sorry, back.in US Army basic training we were taught to keep our finger off the trigger. That was the late 60s.

This agent knows where to put his finger.
