The instructor highlights the pros and cons of each, emphasizing safety considerations, particularly with pocket carry, and showcases practical demonstrations of drawing and readiness. The content is geared towards individuals seeking to understand different concealed carry options.

This video compares appendix carry and 3 o'clock carry for concealed handgun use. While appendix carry offers advantages in confined spaces and seated positions due to a more vertical draw, 3 o'clock carry is preferred by some for physical altercations, allowing for an easier draw over garments in realistic scenarios. Both methods are discussed in the context of a challenging shooting drill.

This expert-level guide from Tenicor focuses on the critical aspect of clearing the cover garment during an appendix carry draw. The primary point of failure is often the garment itself, not the initial grip. The technique emphasizes a two-handed grip transition and using the support hand to effectively lift and clear the clothing, ensuring a consistent and robust draw stroke applicable in various scenarios.

This video addresses the critical safety concerns associated with appendix carry for handguns. It highlights how using improper holsters and lazy reholstering techniques can lead to dangerous situations, including negligent discharges and injuries. The content emphasizes the importance of taking appendix carry seriously and provides guidance on how to safely test your setup using dry fire. It's aimed at both beginners and experienced appendix carriers looking to enhance their safety protocols and protect themselves and their families. The video also promotes a free guide to concealment and features a sponsor, Eclipse Holsters.

It aims to clarify common practices and ensure safe handling of firearms for everyday carry. The video features Jeff from TENICOR, highlighting their expertise and potentially their products.

In close-quarters combat, drawing a pistol can be dangerous as an opponent can easily grab the firearm. A tactical knife offers a safer alternative, allowing the user to create space by targeting vital areas like the carotid artery or kidneys. This space allows for a safe transition back to a firearm. The video demonstrates this strategy using a Glock pistol and a fixed-blade knife.

This video details crucial footwork techniques for Navy SEALs during Close Quarters Combat (CQC). It emphasizes 'economy of motion' and the 'long step' technique for balanced entry into corner-fed rooms, ensuring immediate engagement capability. Proper footwork prevents exposing vulnerable side plates and maintains a stable shooting platform.

This video demonstrates a clever modification of standard military cloth bandoliers to increase their magazine capacity. By releasing a hidden white string, the pockets expand, allowing them to hold one or even two 5.56mm magazines each. Special Forces operators pack these expanded bandoliers with other essentials for rapid emergency resupply in the field.

This ballistic gel test compares 9mm Barnes TAC-XPD and .45 ACP Cor-Bon Pow'RBall. The 9mm achieved deeper penetration (13-14 inches) with consistent expansion, while the .45 ACP created a larger wound cavity and significant energy transfer but slightly less penetration. The Cor-Bon Pow'RBall's design enhances feeding reliability in 1911 platforms.
