This guide details the proper technique for installing and removing a holster equipped with Discrete Carry Concepts (DCC) clips, as demonstrated by a Tenicor representative. The method emphasizes using mechanical leverage with the heel of the hand as a pivot point, rather than brute force, to overcome the clips' high clamping force. This technique ensures secure retention while allowing for efficient on and off-body transitions.

This guide details the improved loading ram mechanism of the Colt 1860 New Model Army, contrasting it with the simpler system of the 1851 Navy. Expert analysis highlights the 'creeping lever's' rack-and-pinion design, which ensures consistent bullet seating and improved ballistics by providing even leverage. The explanation emphasizes the mechanical advantages over older designs, drawing on historical patents and detailed visual examination.

This guide, informed by professional firearms instructors from GUNBROS, breaks down the functional differences between flat and curved triggers. It explains the physics behind perceived trigger pull weight, the advantages of each design for different firearm actions (like DA/SA vs. striker-fired), and highlights hybrid options. The information is presented to help shooters make informed decisions about their gear preferences and understand firearm mechanics better.
