S&W 642 Centennial Airweight (.38 Special, 2")
S&W 64 (.38 Special, 4")
This problem pertains especially to the 642. When I practice Rogers-style flashlight & handgun shooting, when I hold naturally, my trigger finger bumps into bumps into my left index finger, which is atop the flashlight. When I move the flashlight down relative to the weapon, my trigger finger bumps into my gun.
I am pretty sure this is going to throw my aim off. I have fairly long fingers - is it a case of too much hand, too little gun for Rogers to work? Should I try a different technique (e.g. Harries, which I haven't used yet because it's not recommended for Isosceles)?
I am going to take a CWP class as soon as I get together the time and $$$. Do they teach flashlight shooting a regular CWP class or is that less typical? I may need to save up for a second class.
I may just start practicing Weaver & Harries but I thought I get some sage advice before I give up. I did pick out my flashlight based on it being designed for Rogers!
