a lot of good ideas

There are several ways to enhance trigger control. One good exercise is the penny drill. You should be able to dry fire a handgun with a penny on the front sight and not have the penny fall off.

Great drill. Trigger control is the hardest thing to teach. Smooth rearward crisp break of the trigger. No pulling or snapping. Bringing your firearm to your sight picture not your sight picture to your firearm is another big thing. In combat we have already locked eyes on the target. The gun needs to be brought to your eyes which stay on target. Many shooters bring the firearm up and then try to find the sights. That slows you down way to much. "Gun to eyeballs" is a mantra my students hear over and over.

I like to snap my wrist down while jerking the trigger. Like cracking a whip. It has the added benefit of clearing the range so that i may practice in peace.

And the monkey presses the button.
