Simple question... You're shooting a handgun and need to drop the mag. The gun has a regular mag release button that pushes in, not a Euro-style paddle that presses down. Which finger do you use to press the mag release button?
 
I train a bunch of ways. I ran my mag release on right side of pistol for a bit to have consistency with rifle
 
Really depends on the handgun. On the H&K USP compact's I for some strange reason use my middle finger of my shooting hand. But an old colt woodsman gets non firing thumb.
 
The only right answer is - I don't reload, I carry a second gun.

When st the range, the right answer is thumb.

How the f*ck do you use the middle finger?
 
Is this one of those "Out Yourself" threads I heard about...???
