The Finger Pointer Idea
I have been fermenting this concept in my mind for sometime now.
Have you noticed that when you extend your arm and point your finger at a certain direction, say for example, you are directing someone to a street sign, a building, a beautiful girl included… a particular part of the landscape or simply just pointing at anything, your Finger pointing is very accurate? This applies whether you are right handed or a leftie, whether right eye or left eye dominant as well.
I am trying to design a Stock that functions along this principle. Aiming, and shooting a rifle of this type will be just like pointing a finger .. as naturally accurate as possible… and quick and fast too.
Tape a laser pointer at your finger and try it. Point and aim, and it is accurate. Accuracy in this form is natural and built into the human anatomy.

A baby knows how to point her/his finger with accuracy even before she/he learns to speak coherent language.
This stock I am thinking about will make shooting a rifle as natural as pointing a finger. Holding a pistol and shooting with extended arm has similar natural effect.
I believe uou are referring to a learned coordinated response.
If you had a handgun in your hand forever and shot it as often as you pointed at something you would be one shot deadly 99.99% of the time on the first shot. And 100% on target with the second shot if the same condition that upset your first aim is still in effect. There is always the possibility of a variable such as wind or something to upset your balance.

Well perhaps you should make your stock to look like a big finger and that should point your shooting in the right direction .
