You can't self diagnose until you've demonstrated and experienced proper fundamentals. You're using bad data to solve the problem, it won't work.

i thought you knew.....with a stock glock trigger you just take the slack off at very first. then you kind of push on the '''wall''' till it breaks,slowly at first . that's how you get the accuracy out of every guns , specially with glocks....after awhile, you can accelerate the motion till it becomes a second nature with every guns. obviously, the smoother the trigger break , easier it is to perform fast.
Caramel this isn't directed towards you only but you are the member in question here.
Its not about what some of us think, its about what some of us know and what you think. The difference being you aren't sure of your methods or their potential results. Whereas what I and others here know, is that the results are 100% predictable before you even embark on this experiment.
Thinking is good, its a start, but knowing is what proves or disproves what we think, its absolute. Myself and others know that what you're thinking is wrong.

That's good. Don't dismiss proper form simply because it feels weird or you aren't seeing spectacular results right off the bat. give it some serious time and effort.

I think a video (over the shoulder view) clearly showing you and the target shooting consistent 3.5" groups off hand at 25m is in order. I train with tier 1 instructors and Mil/LEO trainees weekly and none of us progress that quick even with professional instruction and similar round counts.
That's great, the problem is still the shooter. Shooting a slow fire tiny group at distance is great if you're into shooting tiny slow fire groups at stationary targets. Shoot those same groups while under the clock or other external pressures and now you possess a skill set that impresses. Shooting with top level folks doesn't mean he's learning anything, doesn't mean he's learning proper technique and doesn't mean he's demonstrating proper technique. You can't learn through osmosis. As for his short time with handguns. Some people are fast learners, others not so much. This isn't rocket science, its the fundamentals and there aren't that many to learn, its mastering them that takes time.
A pic of a ragged hole doesn't tell you much. Other variables are unknown and we don't know what the shooter was trying to accomplish. If tiny groups are the goal then most people have the wrong gun for the job as most autos are service pistols with coarse sights and reliability being more important than inherent accuracy.
If the shooter is looking to compete in an action shooting type discipline or defensive training, then a service pistol is more than adequate. I simply don't have any interest in tiny slow fire groups, they're boring and pointless, especially with a service pistol. No one who competes or carries for a living ever shoots for groups, which makes them pointless in the grand scheme of things.

Wow. I wish I had the budget to shoot 1000+ rounds a week. Even with reloading I'm lucky to shoot 1000 rounds every 4-5 months. Most of my range sessions are skills maintenace rather than skills buidling at this point.
