I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings and Rocket Man, don't take this as any type of attack or insult but I don't think that the combination of a nervous disorder, a light trigger, and a severe lack of ability to shoot a handgun is a safe position to be in. For reference, a standard IPSC target is pretty well considered to be of average torso dimensions and they are 18"x30". I was curious and measured the width of my center mass and it is 15", and I'm 5'-10" and 210lbs. The point of this is, if we are ever required to use a firearm to defend ourselves, all of the rounds need to be "minute of bad guy". I own a few target pistols and several different handguns that I carry and I prefer a heavier trigger pull on my carry pieces to avoid a possible adrenaline/nerve induced AD.
Rocketman, I'm reasonably confident that if you make it to a SE Shoot, there will be at least a few people qualified and willing to give you a little coaching and help you improve your shooting.
I agree entirely. If a nervous condition affects your trigger pull, you certainly don't need a lighter trigger.
Concealed carry is for protection, open carry is for attention.
Two slow... I want to walk to the garage, load some hoppers, flip a switch and presto! 2,000 rounds of .45acp :cool2:
I think Mike Dillon had something like that in his garage...
“A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.”
