Sig Sauer P365 vs. Glock 43 | Size matters

Ever since the announcement of Sig’s new P365 micro compact pistol, I’ve eagerly anticipated its arrival. At SHOT Show, I had the pleasure of handling the pistol at the Sig Sauer booth but missed the opportunity to shoot it on Range Day. Apparently, Sig Sauer has their own range day and doesn’t participate in the […]

Purse Carry: Best Option for Ladies’ Concealed Carry?

One concealed carry option available to women is carrying in one’s purse (I suppose it’s also an option for those trendy “man purses,” if you’re fashion forward enough to sport one…). For ladies like my mother, who can’t imagine going anywhere without one of their helpful handbags glued to their side, purse carry could be […]

Shoot Better with SIRT Trainers: Laser Beams Make Everything Better

The SIRT is a useful training tool to augment live fire training exercises. The resetting trigger allows the user to “fire” the gun without having to action the slide and the shot indicating lasers provide immediate feedback for shot accuracy. SIRT is an acronym for Shot Indicating Resetting Trigger. As the name suggests, the trigger […]

Holster Selection: Things to Consider

Holster Selection: Things to Consider

During my 1,900 hours as a defensive shooting instructor one of the dominating questions I was asked was about holster selection.  In my experience this is the hardest one to answer.  I have good news and bad new for you:  The perfect holster match for your body shape, selected firearm, carry position, and attire exists.  […]

Why I chose the Glock 43 as my concealed carry pistol

Why I chose the Glock 43 as my concealed carry pistol

I’ve been carrying a concealed pistol now for just about thirty years. I’ve gone through more than my share of different pistols and holsters during that time from a S. & W. Chiefs Special 5 shot revolver to Glocks. The Glock pistols have become my favorite over the years due to its lightweight, easily replaced […]

Tenicor Certum IWB Holster

Tenicor is a hot company at the moment. Many of the more infamous tactical/firearm e-stores have been stocking their products and there is clearly a following. Their most popular holster seems to be the Tenicor Velo, an AIWB rig, with a wedge molded onto the backside of the holster for better concealment, (achieved by pushing […]

Is the AR-15 an effective weapon for civilians to use against domestic terrorism?

Is the AR-15 an effective weapon for civilians to use against domestic terrorism?

With attacks on our homeland, we have the responsibility to defend it against all threats foreign and domestic. Politicians and mainstream media are both labeling these weapons anything but what they are. I have personally used these style rifles in the defense of my country and now as a veteran. In the hands of a […]

Desantis Holsters 2019 Line-up

Desantis Holsters 2019 Line-up

Desantis is a legend is the holster business and plenty Loadout Room Writers love and appreciate the gear they make. I’m a huge fan of the Desantis DSD rig, but that rig is really an oddity. They produce much more traditional holsters for both duty and concealed carry. The new 2019 lineup shows that Desantis […]

Concealed Carry Drills: The Glock 19 Bill Drill

Concealed Carry Drills: The Glock 19 Bill Drill

The Bill Drill. Originally developed by Bill Wilson of Wilson Combat, it’s my go-to concealed carry drill. It tests almost everything you need to be proficient at for concealed carry. The only one better is the El Presidente. Simply put, the drill is draw and fire 6 on target under time. Traditionally this was done […]
