Center of gravity AP-FP

Where must be the center of gravity (or maybe the mass center), in an
AP and/or a FP?

I am thinking that must be just in the trigger shoe, to avoid de-centering, and mantain wobble to minimun.

All opinions are welcome, and better with some draw.
Thank you so much.
Have a Merry Chrismas, to all of you.

From what I heard, according to the Haidurov system (who designed TOZ-35 eons ago, and which is still superior to this day), the center of gravity should, as a rule of thumb, be "two fingers forward" of the trigger shoe.

Interesting to observe the change with time (fashion, whatever?).
About 20 years back Don Nygord was advocating that the CoG be over the trigger finger where it contacted the trigger.

I would go along with Don Nygard {sic] and his opinion on balance as I have not attempted to experiment with this issue. My own personal preference is about two fingers width forward of the trigger. Slightly muzzel heavy works best for me but may be only the accumulative effect of years of training. Good Shooting Bill Horton
