Finger rubbing on the trigger guard

[james57]

I am using an 38S Open STI with a stippled grip, SV short round trigger insert and the bottom of my finger rubs on the trigger guard enough to caused soreness around the nail area after a match or longer practice. How can I correct this problem? Anyone else had this problem? I am wondering if I might be pushing the gun down with the trigger finger also? My accuracy is normally in the 90%+ but as a C shooter my times are slower than I would like. Any thoughts?

Any chance you could post a picture of your finger on the trigger the way it normally is? Do you think going to a slightly longer insert might extend your finger enough to prevent the rubbing? R,

When I started to REALLY get into practice, my hands would crack, bleed, bruise from the stock mag release or new grips. If you are using proper technique and having the problem, why not modify your trigger guard? You could even add a little AGrip to it for a non-permanent fix.

I presume from the description that you are talking about your trigger finger rubbing inside the trigger guard. If that is the case, what kind of trigger insert do you have, there's a curved and a half curve one that may help, I think it was called a Enos curve or something like that.

Thanks to all that replied. I will try a couple of the ideas and see what works.
