While there may be something about how much finger to put on the trigger in that video, it was difficult to navigate through all the tough-guy lingo.
The answer is, it is different for everyone.
I used to chase the "perfect" amount of finger to put on the trigger and now I just default to a full grip. No breaking of knuckles, no middle of the trigger finger, none of that stuff. Full grip, full finger, pistol, rifle, blade, whatever all the same no issues and I am more accurate with this than I was chasing anything else.
Your results may differ.

Just noticed my son’s new Boba Fett keeps trying to use only the tip.
So are you like Boba or Pat?

My fingers are plenty long for any trigger option, but "sinking" it has worked best.

It can work great for some folks. On striker fired guns the first crease has worked best for my mediocre shooting ability and medium size hands.
Try the trigger stripe drill with different finger locations and see what works best for you both fast and slow fire.

We were discussing the value of attending formal training in another thread a few months back, and I remembered writing...
I've found Glock pistols in particular are sensitive to trigger finger placement, and more trigger finger certainly helps keep my groups centered. I tend to notice it when I've stepped away from Glock for an extended period. Try it. And the instructor was not Mr. McNamara, but another top level competitive shooter.
"When the phone rang, Parker was in the garage, killing a man."
I always wondered about this. I might give it a try.
Thanks for posting the video.
Mr. McNamara is a fan of the 1911 pistol as well as the Glock -- I wonder if he uses that same trigger technique for the 1911. I typically get a lot of finger on the trigger of revolvers and striker-fired guns, but I use just the pad for the 1911.
