It seems everyone is SO concerned with demonstrating their "Gun Safety Awareness" that they must contort their hands into the same unnatural trendster grip that everyone else uses to "Safety Signal".
You know what I mean. That photo op with the trigger finger stuck straight out along the side of a gun above the trigger. It sometimes appears that they are striving to angle that finger so high above the trigger, that they risk joint dislocation and tearing of tendons or ligaments or whatnot.
Look, if you have time to smile and pose with your weapon, chances are that the apocalypse is not immediately upon you. You don't need to keep your finger THAT ready. Go ahead and drop that finger below the trigger guard on your AR, on the pistol grip of the weapon where it normally hangs out when you're actually patrolling. If your handgun is out of its holster, you can also keep your finger below the trigger guard for your facebook pics. If action was imminent, your finger would be on the trigger. If action isn't imminent, why do we even need to see your hand on the gun? Take a pretty picture of it laying on a table. Really don't need to see your hand to admire the gun.
