Bravo One

Pistols: Beretta M9

Pistols: The Beretta M9

I wanted to focus today on military pistols, and specifically the Beretta M9.  I start here with the Beretta M9 because it is the most commonly used sidearm across the armed services.  In the coming future, expect to see others covered here as well, from SIG Sauer to Heckler & Koch, but today, I’m just […]

The ASP Baton

The Collapsible ASP Baton

While many of us are aware of the ASP collapsible baton, many don’t think to purchase or carry one.  Some mistakenly believe they are only military and law enforcement purchasable. ASP is seen everywhere in security and law enforcement, and for good reason.  It is a reliable and effective weapon which can be employed for […]

GAU-19/A Naval Mount

GAU-19 Gatling .50 Cal

The GAU-19 Gatling .50 Cal is one serious piece of hardware which I thought I’d mention today in light of it’s renewed interest for Naval deployment.  Many have never even heard of it or seen it deployed, which is a shame because this monster can lay down the hate.  Whenever someone is talking about the […]

Camouflage at its absolute best

This is the holy grail of camouflage for the fighting folk.  Despite all of our technology, we are still playing catch-up to nature but we are learning and strides are being made.  Nature has had a lot more time to tweak and test it’s creations, and the price to pay for failing was literally life.  […]

Negev NG7

IWI Negev NG7

There’s been some excitement lately surrounding the new IWI Negev NG7 7.62x51mm Light Machine Gun so we decided to do a overview of that system and really describe it for everyone out there.  The system really isn’t anything new but it does have some unique qualities that make it stand out from other designs.  I […]

Palestinian Fighters with Grenade

Offensive Hand Grenades

In the military it seems we can be restricted or limited in offensive grenades training and employment.  When I say ‘offensive’ use, I’m talking about both fragment and concussion types and usage by both friendly and enemy sides.  I think our own training needs to include more than just the ‘Pull the pin, Throw at […]

Sudanese Rebels

Red Team: The AK Family of Weapons

In my last post, I discussed some facets of our M4 platform, so I thought it would be interesting to take a look at the red team workhorse, the AK Family of weapons. Like our M16/M4 Series, the Russian’s have been busy modernizing and trying to stay current over the years.  Without a doubt, the […]

SEAL CQBR

The M4A1 and CQBR/Mk 18 5.56x45mm

In this article, first, I want to talk to you about the M4A1 and what makes it our bread and butter choice across special operations teams. I will discuss the good and the bad, and why I think it’s here to stay. Without a doubt, the M4 platform has been a success with a proven […]

SWCC_LoadoutROOM

Bravo One, A Naval Special Warfare Armorer

So me and the guys have hand-picked some of the best experts on guns and gear to give us a hand in The Loadout Room.   The problem is that most of these guys have sensitive jobs (some are active duty or work closely within industry), so we decided to give them call signs and keep […]
