Old School Shower Kit Bags

I’ve gone through many “Shower Kits” in my time. I’ve used everything from store bought multi compartment super bags to my current configuration which tends to be a regular ziplock bag. When you travel a lot these bags become like a second home. I don’t care how manly you are at a certain point it […]

SHOT Show: NEW Luminox SEAL Watch

The: Approved for Naval Use (ANU) Watch I’m extremely glad that they chose to use a “Nato” strap on it that runs through both pins. I’m tired of losing watches in the surf zone.

The Lone Survivor Was Not Alone – Neither are you

I’m finishing up a couple articles on Marcus Luttrell and Lone Survivor to share my perspective as his sniper instructor. I’m also – with a lump in my throat – heading out to see Lone Survivor the movie so that I can break down some of the gear and tactics for The Loadout Room. I’ve […]

SHOT Show 2014 – Here we go

SHOT Show was a “whirlwind” of guns and gear. We made our way through the floor interviewing some of the finest companies to learn about them, and their gear. Stay tuned as we release several more episodes during the next few weeks. Here are just a few of the companies we spoke with at the […]
