Do you actually want to get better?

This video from Tenicor demonstrates how to avoid a weak shooting position by utilizing the chest as a support. Instructor Jeff Fails explains that pressing the firearm into the body and using tactile cues for consistent hand placement significantly improves stability and control, especially in close-quarters scenarios. The technique focuses on biomechanical efficiency for better accuracy.

This expert-level guide, drawing from a Tenicor video, details a critical grip mistake that hinders recoil control. It emphasizes applying the majority of pressure via the support hand into the buttstock, utilizing a 'grip and hang' technique. This method, popularized by Frank Proctor, involves gripping the rail, relaxing the elbow, and letting arm weight provide linear pressure for efficient recoil management and reduced fatigue.

This guide explains predictive shooting, a technique where the shooter anticipates the firearm's behavior for rapid, accurate shots without conscious confirmation for each round. Demonstrated by an expert instructor, it emphasizes consistent actions to achieve predictable results, particularly at high paces of fire. The technique is crucial for competitive shooting and high-stress scenarios.

This video emphasizes that firearm ownership is secondary to responsible and professional use. It highlights that effective training offers a unique intellectual, physical, and emotional challenge, applicable across various disciplines like hunting, target shooting, and self-defense. The instructor, demonstrating expertise, stresses the importance of this comprehensive approach to gun ownership.

This guide details advanced rifle recoil control techniques as demonstrated by USPSA Grandmaster Mark Smith. Key principles include establishing a consistent rifle connection, proper buttstock placement, head and shoulder engagement, and precise support hand pressures using a 'grip and hang' method. It also covers stance adjustments for mitigating both lateral and vertical recoil, emphasizing a solid connection to the rifle for predictable and durable firing.

Matt Pranka, a highly authoritative firearms instructor, details the 'Doubles' drill designed to enhance predictive shooting. This drill emphasizes the critical link between a shooter's grip pressure and the visual feedback received from a red dot optic. By analyzing the red dot's predictable movement, shooters can identify and correct issues stemming from grip inconsistencies or missed visual cues, leading to improved accuracy and control.

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).
