Front Sight teaches (or taught when my family took a 3 day pistol class) reset riding. Definitely causing a lot of problems now that I’ve started seriously training. It’s great for getting a bunch of yokels to hit every shot, but none of us are capable of more than 1.5-2 shots a second. Thanks for the help

I used to think the reset was important. Then I saw a slow motion video of Jerry Miculek… He drops the trigger completely. And I realised I just need to train more trigger pull, not trigger release.

One thing I noticed is when I bought a 1911 in 45acp and started shooting that for a little bit and then immediately transitioned back over to my 9 mm Glock I was able to shoot my Glock better because the 45 has taught me greater recoil control. It almost feels like going from 45->9mm is like 9mm->22lr

I see a lot of folks who ride the reset internalize the reset as the signal to shoot, so they often end up either (1) not making shooting decisions based on appropriate visual information or (2) having to do more trigger work after getting the appropriate visual confirmation (vision => reset => pull vs. just vision => pull)

Riding the reset can also lead to pinning the trigger. Since an attempt at exactly locating the reset point requires very precise finger movement, it's tempting to postpone that movement until after the gun has completed the recoil cycle and is more or less stabilized and back on target. So instead of using the "dead time" when the gun is recoiling and moving back on target to simultaneously release the trigger and start pulling it again, you wait till the gun becomes steady and only then start the release - "hunt the reset" - pull cycle.

Hey Ben, first off great job with the videos you're putting out. Very informative and enjoying each one. Keep up the good work. I agree with your comments on trigger reset. I've been in LE since the 80's and when we made the transition from revolvers to semi-autos trigger reset was hammered home. It stayed that way for many years even as I became an instructor for my department we were taught to teach trigger reset to our students. It's only been the past few years that the instructor level and USPSA classes that I've attended have gotten away from trigger reset and now teach coming off and then re-engaging the trigger for each shot. I've found that it is a much better way to "run" a gun. Faster, more efficient. I may use it if I'm sighting in an optic for a rifle from a bench but that's about it. Training and techniques grow and evolve over the years. There is a reason why we don't shoot K frames from the Weaver position anymore. Keep up the good work.

Adding to the discussion of those who have mentioned Jerry Miculek, I think it's useful to mention that Jerry developed his trigger pull on DA revolvers. They don't have a short "felt" reset like most pistols generally do (even DA/SA pistols reset to an SA pull with a short "felt" reset), and I'm beginning to believe that a lot of trigger freeze issues that people experience these days are a timing issue with the short reset on most of today's pistols, especially strikers. Jerry does actually keep his finger in contact with the trigger at all times (I've heard him describe it as not giving the trigger "air"), and his decades of experience setting speed records that way has mostly been on DA revolvers. But when I watch him shooting a striker in slow-mo, he still appears to keep his finger in contact with the trigger at all times. Maybe we could all benefit from training with DA revolvers regularly? 🤷♂ Seems to work for Jerry...
@niznikb3 ай бұрын
I remember a video with Jerry, where he explained that if you want to maximize your speed, you must avoid pinning the trigger between shots. That means you don't wait for the gun to move back on target and only then start releasing the trigger. The time it takes for the gun to recoil and get back on target is already lost and you don't want to add more wasted time on top of that. You start releasing the trigger as soon as the gun goes off. And to do that efficiently, you need to forget about trying to hit the reset point. You're never gonna do this fast enough with 100% reliability. Just make sure you release it "more than necessary" (or even all the way) without lifting your finger completely off the face of the trigger.

Ben thanks for the videos!!! I’m a little confused by this particular video… most likely due to the term “riding the reset”. In your POV is “riding the reset” the same as an “inflight reset”? I ask because you stated that there are those that listen for the click of the reset as part of their process for trigger management…. One performing inflight resets could never hear or feel the point of the reset; it’s just there, ready for the next press. Could you help me with this? I enjoy learning from your insights and experience, literally has changed my process and performance significantly!!! Thanks!
@Nick--_4 ай бұрын
In my (beginner) brain, riding the reset isn't a way to shoot faster by minimizing finger travel but a mechanism to prep the trigger. If I'm going to make a (for me) difficult shot, I'm going to take out the slack to prep the trigger and then roll through the break and so by riding the reset, I arrive at that prepped trigger point without fully resetting. You talked about not ridding the reset and instead letting the trigger fully reset and so my question is, do you take out the pre-travel in the trigger before committing to a shot or is your trigger press one fluid motion?
@jackieevans38094 ай бұрын
Pretty sure Ben means one fluid motion and/or rolling all the way through the trigger each time. Not stopping at the reset 'wall' and then finishing the trigger pull after more confirmation. Ben rolls through the trigger no stopping, fast as possible for close targets, boom-boom, and a slower press-roll-through on longer distances like 20-25 yards. But he doesn't try and find the reset wall again for the second shot. He lets the trigger out all the way each time no matter the distances. My take anyway.
@tejascustoms2923 ай бұрын
With a quality 2011 trigger letting all the way off is faster by a lot. With a striker gun (stock glockish) it seems to slow me down a good bit. For me just depends on the gun.

I agree with Ben on this eventhough I get better accuracy if i ride the trigger. Riding the trigger on a semi auto is kinda like stacking a double action revolver trigger just to the point before the hammer falling and keeping the trigger there until you decide to shoot. I dont think this is a very good technique. I also think that riding the reset may cause issues if you have to use another person's gun or if you have to transition to another gun.

Once I did a 3 days course of C.A.R. System, and at the end of the course we had to be able to put at least 6 shots in center mass in less than 1 sec, at close distance, for sure. I learned that day that riding the reset could cause you problems, because I saw some people failing at the first tries just for pulling the trigger before the reset. You lose more time if you cannot reset the trigger than going all the way back and forth.

Like in everything, there are levels to any game. Years ago, I believed in this process because on paper it made sense. This is one of those many examples of how what we think we are doing and what we are doing can be two different things. After studying video footage of myself, I notice when I was shooting low percentage targets at speed, my trigger control was not what I thought it was. My finger was most defiantly coming all the way off the trigger then rolling through the break. A controlled slap is how I define it. Shooting high percentage targets that required more confirmation, I was manipulating the trigger differently than when shooting low percentage shoots, but my finger was still coming all the way off the trigger. At no time was my finger just going to the point of reset. Videos reveal what's actually happening and should be part of everyone's training. This changed how I thought about trigger control. Your feelings will most defiantly lie to you.

This is a competition versus defensive issue, and I've gotten to the point where I lose respect for an instructor if they waste much time on this weird fetish. The only instructors I've had pushing this reset thing are defensive instructors who either don't compete at all or are very mediocre competitors. And competition is where the rubber meets the road. Competition instructors are concerned about grip and sight picture, and don't seem to think much about reset. Sure, I want my triggers to have reasonably short resets, but besides that, I need to focus on grip and sight picture, and learned to not think about the reset at all. Stoeger's first book actually confirmed my conclusions and helped me get past the nonsense. And his ideas have not been contradicted since then as I watch and talk to higher-level shooters.

The problem comes when people try to learn/teach shooting faster by just doing long range techniques more quickly. Pin and reset is important for trigger control and follow through at distance. Riding the reset is misapplication of that technique at speed. Slap the shit out of the trigger, to paraphrase Rob Leatham.
