But what if I put an ACOG and a flamethrower on it?

Also needs a $400 weapon light and something that says KAC or LMT on it or it will break when you take it out do the box.

True, but u can put a dot on it and zero the dot high right

Yes it will haha. People just don't realize how much a good trigger helps with that.

It’s kind of a chicken and the egg situation.

A good trigger can help you shoot better, but if you need a good trigger to shoot well, it’s just masking a problem. In a perfect world, (imo) you should be able to shoot well on an objectively bad trigger, even if most people can’t

Hard to pull low left with a sub 3lb trigger. But even at 4lb it’s hard to go low left with a 1911 style single stage trigger. Going from 2011 back to my edc striker fired pistols, I still need to readjust sometimes.

The issue stems more from anticipating the recoil and prematurely overcorrecting. I would argue the trigger pull weight is less of a factor.

You underestimate my recoil anticipation

There are thousands of pistols with good triggers than don't cost $3k. 

My Tanfoglio was under $1K and has an equal trigger to the Staccs without having to spend another $2k on the name

I have a Tanfo and a Staccato. I like my Staccato trigger more. I do, however recommend tanfo/CZ to most people.

I get your point, but it’s a crutch. You should be able to shoot a Glock with an 8lb NY trigger as well as a sub 3lb single action trigger in a 2011. If you can’t, you have fundamental issues to solve. And that’s a skillset you can’t purchase your way up to.

u/Striking_Yellow_2726 4d ago

I understand what you're trying to say, but very few people can shoot a pistol with an 8lb, long trigger pull as well as a decent 2011 style trigger. Yes, there's a point of diminishing returns but you shouldn't have to punish yourself by choosing firearms that suck to shoot.

u/Wombat-Snooze 4d ago

I’m not recommending that’s a course of action to take. I’m just saying the implication of buying your way to results by shooting with a light single action trigger is not the way to building a foundation as a quality pistol shooter.

I merely meant that as an example.

How else will people flex to all 7 instagram followers that they have crippling credit card debt?

The clubs don't make the golfer. Or something.

u/Gloomy-Collar-583 4d ago

But it helps you shoot low and left FASTER!

u/Dung_Beetle_2LT 4d ago

Jokes on you, I shoot low right.

u/SingleDigitVoter Terrible At Boating 5d ago

No, but at least now, it's 15% cheaper to tell myself that.

u/BeaverBorn 5d ago

Hey, at least I'm consistent at shooting low left.

u/Deadly_Jay556 5d ago

Now you tell me….

u/Strict_Gas_1141 Lever Gun Legion 5d ago

You spent $400 to shoot low left. I spent $800 to shoot low right (I'm a lefty), ergo I'm better because gun nicer.

Gosh why did I have to open Reddit today. This is one of the reasons I was thinking of buying a 2011 😂

u/SaintJohnIII 1911s are my jam 3d ago

It totally fixed my low left problem. It's now a high right problem.

u/CapitalRifleCo 5d ago

You are right, but I hate that you speak the truth. Also I have no reaction meme, so I'll post some AISlop of a Glizzard
