Is there any advantage to having a Flat trigger versus curved trigger on your EDC pistol.

Personal preference.
You will shoot great either one of them if you practice.
I have EDC with regular trigger, 1911 with flat trigger - both work perfectly fine, the same way.

As long as YOU can shoot it well, either will work. Just practice with what you carry…

I “think” there is. Trigger finger placement is a bit less critical. (IMO) All my carry guns have flat triggers. I shoot them a little bit better.
Not saying flat triggers will make you shoot better, it is personal preference and personal results.

I could of rambled on about this, but I found this article to help us all out on this subject.
With that said, I installed a Rise Armament 3.5 pound single stage semi-curved trigger on my Sport 2. Do I like the semi-curve…absolutely. Does the shape cause or allow me shoot more accurately. No. Only trigger discipline and proper breathing will bring that to reality. Practice, train, practice, and then do again.

For me it would depend on the gun I suppose. I do run 1911’s with both, and I think I prefer the flat trigger. I do also realize that there are other pistols out there that spark this debate. Heck, even CZ has changed a bit over the years.

I often see people mention issues with clearance when flat triggers are installed. The curve allows more room for you finger (or gloved finger) inside the trigger guard.
