When handgun shooting, what should you do with your finger until ready to shoot?

Keep it on the trigger at all times.
Keep it outside the trigger guard until ready to shoot.
Wiggle it around for better accuracy.
Put your finger in your ear.

The correct answer is: Keep it outside the trigger guard until ready to shoot.

It is important to keep your finger outside of the trigger guard until you are ready to shoot in order to prevent accidental discharge of the firearm. Keeping your finger on the trigger at all times (option A) can increase the likelihood of an accidental discharge. Wiggling your finger (option C) can be distracting and may affect your accuracy. Putting your finger in your ear (option D) is completely unrelated and should not be done when handling a firearm.
