Your tips are solid, sensible and no-nonsense. I've been having trouble with gun recoil and that terrible flinching habit. I think your tip on focusing on the gun, and not on actually firing it, really makes sense. What usually happens is, I anticipate the sound and the feel of the gun going off before it actually does, so most of the time, I end up squeezing the gun, firing with both eyes closed or with my head swerved a bit to the side.

Pulling on the trigger and the gun causes the gun to move. If you press just the trigger, like you press a button, using just the tip of your finger, you only apply pressure directly to the trigger and use as little of your finger as possible.

In almost all applications I can think of - pressing is an act of motion that begins near and moves away much like a "push". A pull, or pulling is an act of motion begiining away and moves closer to you. Tug of war, both teams "pull" they never say we "pressed" the rope to move our opponents forward. I'm curious how using the opposite word for what we are trying to explain is supposed to make conceptualizing the process clearer to students?? Just an observation.
