What is the primary reason for practicing proper trigger discipline?

  1. To increase shooting accuracy

  2. To prevent accidental discharges

  3. To ensure the firearm is clean

  4. To comply with Michigan laws

The correct answer is: To prevent accidental discharges

Proper trigger discipline refers to keeping your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot. The primary reason for this is to prevent accidental discharges, which can result in harm to yourself or others. Option A and C may be perceived as benefits of practicing trigger discipline, but they are not the primary reason for it. Option D may be a valid reason for complying with laws, but it does not address the safety aspect of trigger discipline.
