A double action trigger does not in itself help with flinching.

As mentioned sticking in a snap cap at random will help reveal a flinch. Dry firing or using snap caps will help cure flinching.

Putting a coin on your gun and dry firing while trying to keep the coin from falling is another good way.

Getting a laser while dry fireing, trying to keep the laser steady,

Using a .22 to learn trigger control.

Last but not least getting good ear protection helps prevent and cure flinching. Because often it is the flash and bang that causes the flinvh, not the felt recoil.

I would suggest a good (I'm partial to S&W) double action revolver, if you are using something else. Callisto32 Dec 2011 #5
