Re: Making the trigger squeeze subconscious

do people have any tips/practice exercises to make the trigger squeeze subconscious and smooth? Should I focus on the start of the trigger squeeze and then just ignore it? Hi, I am not a world champion, but... I would suggest you to experiment. For example: first experimental training session: take...

Checked booking.com... 28 July – 6 August 1 Person/1 Room 2000-4000 GBP.

Is it normal for London?


Hotel in Dartford area - a little bit cheaper... + about 50 GBP for week travelcard (Dartford - Woolwich Dockyard).

Back to Germany...

German Federation have own rules. ISSF changes aren't automatically applied for nationals (in some other federations it happens automatically).

All changes only after meeting, act and decision of German Federation.

No written decision - no changes.

I can tell you from experience, that the only people who come to watch shooting, are people who are interested in shooting already . Agreed. I think the goal of the shooting sport is to hit 10.9 with every shot. But now it is not so important in RF. 10.9 + 10.9 + 10.9 + 10.9 + 9.6 = 53.2 ( 4 points...

I think that I have had the similar problem with .32. In my case I had finally realized that I worked for a shot... I was full of expectations ("now it comes, it comes, it comes... and makes big bang"). The reason was my inner fear ("the pistol that makes big bang"). In addition,...

I replaced original old style buffer with new one (synthetics). It has no adjustments at all. Walther service team said that it must be replaced every 8K-10K shots.

Trigger pull must be measured placing knife-edge of the weight in the middle of trigger blade and no matter if groove exists or not.

A pistol cannot be approved by equipment control, if trigger blade so modified, that trigger pull cannot be measured with the barrel in its vertical position.
