Truck Camping 101 | Part 4 | Comfortable Sleeping – Tepui Tents Kukenam Sky Once in a while, you come across an item that is a game changer. As much as I like to spend time in the outdoors, for my wife, sleeping on the ground never appealed to her. To be honest, I’m in […]

Haiti

Photo of the Day: Rangers Haitian Vacation | Operation Uphold Democracy

September 1994, Members of the 75th Ranger Regiment, Special Forces, SEALs and the aviators of Task Force 160th steam towards Haiti aboard the USS America. The mission was to restore democracy in the impoverished nation of Haiti following a military coup. General Cedras had deposed the democratically elected President Jean-Bertrand Aristide back in 1991. Now the […]

XPRT 3.0

XPRT 3.0 Waterproof 6″ Boot | by 5.11 Tactical

Nothing beats a comfortable pair of broken-in sneakers. For those that served in the military in my era (most of the 90’s), the issued footwear could NOT have been further from this reality. The 75th Ranger regiment at the time still used Vietnam era jungle boots. Although these boots differentiated us from the conventional infantry […]

An Army Rangers Agency Arms Glock 34

An Army Rangers Agency Arms Glock 34 Handgun

“Synergy” -noun 1. The interaction of elements that when combined produce a total effect that is greater than the sum of the individual elements, contributions, etc. This is a term that expertly describes this Rangers Agency Arms Glock 34 build. I know my way around Glocks. They’ve been my sidearm of choice since ’93 when […]

NRA Yeti

The NRA vs. Yeti Coolers | Can’t we just hug it out?

It seems that Yeti Coolers, by making a business or political change to their policy, has created an uproar with the pro 2A folks. Now I’m not one to judge a situation based solely on the mood of the internet. In fact, I found several times that the knee-jerk reaction to something I saw in […]

Faction Prime 2.0

Faction Prime 2.0 | The perfect all mountain ski

In an ideal world, avid skiers would own a dozen or so pairs of skis. Colorfully lining a dedicated wall in the Garage Mahal. One for high-speed carving on those bluebird groomer days. Another GS ski for the local club or beer league races. A fat pair of skis for those sloppy second days when […]
