The Function and Use of a Release Trigger Presented by Larry Potterfield | MidwayUSA Gunsmithing
This video, presented by Larry Potterfield of MidwayUSA, explains the function and use of a release trigger, a specialized mechanism commonly found on competition shotguns used in trap shooting. The demonstration features a Perazzi TM-1 Trap shotgun. Release triggers are explained as a solution for trap shooters who have developed a flinch after extensive practice, as the trigger fires upon release rather than pull, making it harder for the shooter to anticipate and flinch. The video also directs viewers to the MidwayUSA Video Library for more content.
