Do it correctly

Former CIA officer Jason Hanson evaluates the practicality of chest holsters for self-defense, highlighting significant safety concerns like 'muzzling' oneself during the draw. He contrasts budget holsters with quality gear and emphasizes the importance of consistent training. Hanson recommends IWB or pocket carry for most civilian concealed carry situations, reserving chest holsters for specific scenarios like when a belt is overloaded.

This video explores emerging firearm caliber trends, challenging the dominance of 9mm. It details the advantages of calibers like .30 Super Carry for compact firearms, 5.7x28mm for its speed and capacity, 10mm for raw power, .357 Sig for barrier penetration, and .22 TCM for extreme velocity. The discussion highlights how modern ammunition and firearm designs are influencing shooter choices beyond the traditional 9mm standard.

This guide details three concealed carry methods: crossbody bag, appendix carry on an EDC belt, and pocket carry. The crossbody bag offers convenience, appendix carry provides good accessibility, and pocket carry is suitable for micro-pistols but carries higher controversy. The instructor emphasizes practical demonstration and safety considerations for each method.

This video discusses the reasons why a firearm holster might be intentionally difficult to draw from. It delves into the nuances of holster retention, aiming to explain scenarios where a tighter fit or specific design features are beneficial for safety and preventing accidental or unauthorized access to a firearm. The content likely targets experienced firearm owners and those interested in advanced holster considerations beyond simple accessibility.

This video demonstrates an effective EDC bag setup for concealed carry, featuring a Glock 19 in a Kydex holster for rapid access. It highlights efficient organization of a spare magazine and wallet within the bag's compartments. The instructor, Esai Givens, showcases a proficient draw stroke and re-holstering technique, emphasizing the practicality of this setup for self-defense scenarios.

This guide details the use of the SOB Tactical Deep Concealed Holster, as demonstrated by John 'Shrek' McPhee. It covers the unique attachment method, safety design principles, and a specific drawing technique for deep concealment. The holster's design prioritizes covering critical firearm components and reducing printing, making it suitable for high-discretion carry or off-body methods.

This video explains the importance of proper red dot sight zeroing for firearms. It highlights the common mistake of zeroing at 5 yards, which leads to inaccurate shots at longer distances due to the sight's height over bore. A 15-yard zero for 9mm handguns is recommended for a flatter trajectory, hitting the point of aim at 15 yards and often again at 50 yards.

The Kel-Tec P50 is a unique firearm chambered in 5.7x28mm, notable for its extremely lightweight design and surprisingly low recoil, even with a 20-round capacity. Despite a long trigger pull, its performance, with a 40-grain projectile at 1600 fps, offers comparable stopping power to .380 ACP with less felt recoil. The P50 utilizes an unusual top-loading stripper clip mechanism.

This video emphasizes aiming for the pelvis in defensive scenarios, explaining its structural importance for immobilizing a threat. It highlights this technique as effective against body armor and taller opponents. The content features a 2011-style pistol with a red dot optic and discusses tactical target selection with a humorous, direct approach.

This video clarifies the true purpose of co-witnessing red dot sights with iron sights. It emphasizes that they should operate independently, with the red dot's position within the optic window not affecting the point of impact due to parallax-free design. Co-witnessing is primarily for backup when the electronic sight fails, not for simultaneous aiming.
