[IWA 2022] The Detonics Gladiator 50 Caliber Black Powder Derringer
Detonics is a company known for making a variety of shotguns right from the Czech Republic.

New CZ P-10 M Micro-Compact Concealed Carry Pistol
CZ has just announced their newest version of the P-10 pistol, the P-10 M, which is configured as a “micro-compact” pistol marketed for concealed carry. The CZ P-10 M is imported from the factory in the Czech Republic, which released this model last year overseas. The M model of the P-10 family has a capacity of 7(+1) rounds. Interestingly, CZ opted to omit the usual external controls such as a slide stop and safety, save the trigger and magazine release. The new CZ P-10 M is also marketed as being very simple to disassemble for cleaning, just by removing the take-down pin. CZ also reduced the P-10 M’s width to one inch, which is a quarter of an inch slimmer than the rest of the P-10 series. CZ’s description of the CZ P-10 M can be read below.

TFB Review: Telor Tactical Comfort-Air Line of Holsters
Telor Tactical is a Georgia-based holster company. They make holsters for all manners of concealment, as well as 40mm round carriers, masks, and even seat cushions. I was recently tasked with reviewing three of their holsters: the Comfort-Air ITW Holster, the Comfort-Air Bodyband Holster, and the Comfort-Air LE Ankle Holster. I carried each of these in rotation over the three months, and have some thoughts. Let’s get into it.

Is the Beretta PX4 Storm Compact Carry…Worth Carrying? (Or the Price?)
Let’s get weird, gang. The Beretta PX4 Storm Compact Carry is not often thought of as a popular option for concealed carry, especially over Glock, Smith & Wesson’s M&P series, and other options. However, LTT (Langdon Tactical) has taken the lowly Beretta PX4 Storm and transformed it into a CCW BEAST – but that comes at a cost. Would you carry this? James tells you why you would – and why you wouldn’t – today on TFBTV.

Top 5 Beginner CCW Mistakes (That I Made)
I have made many, many mistakes in my life. Some are hysterical to look back on and make for great stories. Some cause me to physically cringe as I’m falling asleep and will remain unspoken until the day I die. Or get sufficiently drunk. Anyway. The point is, you are supposed to learn from your mistakes. But you should also learn from other people’s mistakes whenever you can. That way, you don’t have to make the same mistakes as them. Instead, you can create brand new mistakes that are all your own. With that philosophy in mind, here are the top 5 mistakes I personally made while concealed carrying.
