Very true and great advice

Never experienced this until I started competing w glock about 6 months ago. Agree it’s a grip thing, I’ve been experimenting with different triggers, beaver tails etc to find the right feel,but right now my grip overall is appallingly bad, with a few trigger freezes and shitty hits as results. Am going to give it a few thousand rounds more and see if I start to get a grip on things (pun intended)

Every time I’ve had trigger freeze, it’s been due to hand tension. As I’ve tried to be more aware of when I’m doing it (usually when shooting fast) so I can correct it in real time, my doubles have gotten a lot tighter too. Who’d of thunk? Lol

[@fuggleeartshow]

What about da/sa guns with no manual safety? How would you do it then?

I think I've been having this issue with my CZ Czechmate. I just did a match this morning, and made videos with my gopro, and watching back through it, I'm seeing that the malfunctions I had this morning were all trigger freeze. I'm not sure how to fix that.

[@waltherwagner9711]

Had the same thing during my last match and thought its a malfunction, but it wasnt

Why do you grip hard during dry fire?
