“How do guns work?”
“What is the difference between single-action and double-action firearms?”
“How do you clear a jammed pistol?”

These are a few of the pressing questions new shooters ask when starting their concealed carry journeys. In this video, Concealed Carry Magazine Executive Editor Kevin Michalowski uses actual firearms to demonstrate how guns work, the different types of actions, and how to clear common pistol misfeeds or malfunctions.

Kevin breaks each answer down step-by-step, demonstrating how the parts of a pistol interact with one another and why some occasionally fail when firing. It’s not enough just to own a gun for self-defense. Your safety — even your life — depends on knowing how *your* gun works and how to quickly resolve mechanical problems.
