Pressure changes everything in gun handling.

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.

Instructor Mike observes that many concealed carry license renewal students lack basic pistol mastery, despite apparent confidence.

TheYankeeMarshal, an experienced firearms instructor, debunks the dangerous advice of not carrying a firearm chambered. He emphasizes that proper training and comfort with your firearm are paramount, advocating for carrying with a round in the chamber for immediate readiness. If comfort is an issue, he suggests re-evaluating your firearm choice rather than compromising on carry readiness.

This video demonstrates the 'recon by fire' technique for engaging steel targets in a dark forest environment at the Moons Out 2026 event. The instructor, exhibiting advanced tactical knowledge, highlights the challenges of low-light target acquisition and the importance of audible feedback from steel targets. The guide emphasizes compensating for 'hide-over-bore' issues, a critical skill for accurate engagement in varied terrain.

This video showcases advanced firearm handling techniques, specifically demonstrating the full-auto Uzi from various moving platforms including a truck, bicycle, and tractor. The instructor emphasizes the importance of safety, preparation, and control when executing these challenging shooting scenarios. The segment highlights the unexpected viral nature of certain firearm content and the creative ways it can be repurposed.

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 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).
