thumb rest

[Peter K]

Hi Saul,

do you use a thumb rest on your gun for your left thumb?

If yes, why?

If no, why not? Do you think that pressure on the rest pushes the gun to the right side (right-handed)?

Hi Peter,

Yes, I certainly do use a thumb rest on my open guns and on my standard guns. I believe it is a super good way to control muzzle lift. But - we warned: It will allow you to apply a lot of pressure on the front end of the gun - and this may not work in your favor if you have a "flinch" on the trigger pull. But it is worth trying.
