Another benefit: if you’ve got long fingers and you’re shooting a small gun like a J-frame, you’ll find that your trigger finger no longer hits the knuckles of your support thumb, or at least does so with significantly less effect on the sight alignment.

Remember what I said about the importance of the trigger return? Pay attention to the trigger return as you do this; the return should be a mirror image of the compression, with the trigger finger sliding on the trigger face in the opposite direction. Watch the sight alignment as you do this, and practice until the trigger resets with no sight movement. Remember that the return should be at the same speed as the compression.

You’ll know you’ve ‘got it’ when you can do multiple trigger strokes, with smooth consistent compression and return, and your sights never wander from the target.

How much dry fire is necessary? I don’t recommend long dry fire sessions. I find that most people pick this up in just a minute or two, some in just a few strokes. Once you’ve gotten to the point that the trigger is moving back and forth without disturbing the sight alignment, any further dry fire is of little use. It’s time to go to the range and do it for real.
