The point is to maintain your focus on the front sight, the WHOLE time. It's normal for the target and rear sight to blur out of focus, but untrained shooters often change their point of focus to the target when they fire. It's a natural instinct to want to see what you're shooting at, but you have to train yourself not to lose focus on the front sight.

Real life lesson, as a squad leader my job is to not to engage enemies myself but to see the "big picture" and direct my squad's fire. It's a hard habit to break, directing fire to my fire team leaders instead of just shooting myself. Not something you're trained to do. USMC 3/5 88-92

Breath control is no longer expressed in training. Now it’s referred to as natural respiratory pause. Here’s why, if a shooter is not made to think about breathing he will naturally shoot during his natural respiratory pause. On the other hand if the shooter is told to watch his breathing he will and thus he will not be focused on what’s most important: consistent sight alignment and smooth trigger control.

It is many years since I left the military so many things have obviously changed, not just in the USA but here in the United Kingdom also. I served for 24 years and I was never a good shot, just good enough to pass the annual weapons handling and skills tests, by comparison my son was an excellent shot, and, although he served after I retired, couldn’t understand why, given the fact that we always used a weapon fitted with a 4x optical sight, I couldn’t hit a cows arse with a banjo. Perhaps if I was,like him, on the front line, I would have paid more attention to the instructors advice and tried harder to employ the basic fundamentals of marksmanship. Oh well all water under the bridge now, I never liked guns anyway, I saw them as an evil necessity and not part of the real reason or objective of my position, don’t get me wrong, I am not anti gun, nor would I have ever even have contemplated refusing to do my duty if it was necessary, but thankfully for me, not my son, I was never in that position. The proudest pictures I have of my son are of him at his passing out parade, and of him in Afghanistan, all suited and booted, that might sound a bit crazy, but I was proud of him for serving our country, and more importantly supporting his comrades in arms from around the world and even more importantly his friends and colleagues. Thanks for sharing this interesting and informative film. 👍

Instruction here on trigger finger placement is correct. How do I know: I am a Military Rifle Instructor assisting the USAMU deliver SDM, TTT, and SAFS Training. Also I am US Distinguished Rifleman. At any rate the idea is a high firm handshake like grip on the pistol grip letting the trigger finger fall upon the trigger where it naturally falls. Then SMOOTH trigger pull so as not to disturb aim. Get this and consistent sight alignment for great results.

Re pops1085. The reality is you have to 'flick' focus, from tgt to front sight. The eye does this in a very short amount of time. The issue starts at initial trg or zeroing, where soldiers are asked to aim at a specific mark on a tgt up to 100m away. As a result, they are drawn to focus on the aiming mark, and forget about correct sight alignment and aiming. The aiming mark is relevant to have a datum point, but coaches mustn't forget the basics!
