Fanning the trigger with your index finger.

What do you mean when you say fan-fire?

I know what I think of when I hear that, and it isn't going to work on a 1911.
....yeah,  THIS!   ???

Ah.  That looks more like bump firing to me.  When I hear "fanning" I think of fanning the hammer as can be done on single-action revolvers.

I may be using the terminology incorrectly, but I always regarded bump-fire to be holding your finger steady and letting the trigger rock against it. Fanning was rapidly moving your finger against the trigger (or hammer).

Done!

Thanks for pointing that out.
