This expert analysis explores the evolving firearm caliber landscape, detailing why shooters are increasingly looking beyond the ubiquitous 9mm Luger. It highlights emerging alternatives like .30 Super Carry, 5.7x28mm, 10mm Auto, .357 SIG, and .22 TCM, examining their unique ballistic advantages, capacity benefits, and specific applications. The content emphasizes how advancements in ammunition and firearm design are enabling more specialized choices for concealed carry and self-defense.

This content features an expert instructor from Tenicor discussing the practical value of new firearm gear. He emphasizes that many new products solve non-existent problems and advises new shooters to prioritize proven, reliable platforms like the Glock 19 or 17. The instructor, drawing on extensive experience, highlights that shooter skill is often the limiting factor, not the firearm itself, and advocates for a cost-benefit analysis when considering platform changes.

This expert-level guide from Tenicor demonstrates how specific holster features can significantly improve concealed carry by mitigating 'printing.' The instructor explains that even small firearms can be visible through clothing, but features like a 'wing,' 'claw,' or 'camming bar' on a holster use the belt to rotate the grip inward, enhancing concealment. This technique is crucial for anyone looking to carry a firearm discreetly.

This guide, informed by over 10 years of concealed carry experience, provides three key tips for improving AIWB (Appendix Inside the Waistband) carry comfort and concealment. It emphasizes the importance of an undershirt barrier, a rigid carry belt with proper adjustment, and strategic belt buckle placement. The advice is practical and addresses common AIWB challenges.

This guide details the transformation of a Sig Sauer P365 into a compact Pistol Caliber Carbine (PCC) using the Flux Raider conversion system. The process involves attaching the Flux components to create a more stable shooting platform with improved ergonomics and accuracy potential, while retaining the P365's core modularity for concealed carry. The review highlights the practical benefits for personal defense, emphasizing its effectiveness despite its unconventional appearance.

This guide, presented by a Tenicor representative, details the correct technique for using Discrete Carry Concepts (DCC) clips on IWB/AIWB holsters. It emphasizes using leverage via a pivot point on the firearm with the heel of the hand, rather than brute force, to install and remove the holster. This method addresses common user complaints about DCC clips being too stiff, framing the difficulty as a solvable skill issue.

This video demonstrates an advanced self-defense technique for surviving an armed robbery. The expert instructor highlights the importance of de-escalation and compliance as a distraction, followed by a rapid defensive counter-draw from a concealed appendix (AIWB) position. The simulation showcases neutralizing a threat at close range using a concealed firearm, likely in a Glock platform, emphasizing the effectiveness of a well-executed draw from a high-retention holster like those from Tenicor.

New concealed carriers often make critical mistakes like choosing inadequate holsters or belts, wearing inappropriate clothing, opting for guns that are too small, and carrying with an empty chamber. Selecting a secure, comfortable holster and a supportive belt are crucial. Clothing should allow for a smooth draw without printing. Prioritizing shootability and capacity over extreme concealability is key, and carrying with a round in the chamber, once training allows, enhances readiness.

This video debunks the myth that appendix carry is inherently unsafe, drawing on 25 years of personal experience. It emphasizes proper technique, particularly during reholstering, and highlights the benefits of appendix carry like accessibility and concealability. The presenter details safe reholstering methods, including using a muzzle wedge and body tilt, and discusses the importance of a strong safety mindset over rote rules.

This video emphasizes the critical importance of the four universal firearms handling rules, stating they are 'written in blood' and not suggestions. It details each rule: always treat guns as loaded, never point at anything you're not willing to destroy, keep your finger off the trigger until sights are on target, and be sure of your target and what's beyond it. The content also distinguishes universal rules from range-specific protocols and introduces gun states (secure, ready, on target).
