First rule of Firearm use- of the golden ones- apart form always pointing the weapon in a safe direction, Shaun. If you're referring to seeing a wee bit of my finger, it has slipped slightly off the side of the frame, as I posed the piece for a snappette with my left hand. In fact, it was
not touching the trigger.
If you look closely, though, you'll see the safety is
on...and hence the slight relaxation of the rules
Normally, my son frames the pics and takes the stills/ movies...and I wouldn't attempt to handle both bits of kit simultaneously, for obvious safety concerns. This was just an attempt to get a view of the Walther's internals, whilst keeping it pointing in a safe direction. Between us, my son and I have all the holes and orifices required by mother nature, without wanting to add to the tally!
