The Loadout Room
Professional Gear Reviews
As most of you know, magazine loading kinda blows. Especially those high capacity 9mm magazines. When SIG Sauer introduced the MPX a couple of years ago, I pulled the trigger and received one of the 1st generation SBR’s. It arrived with four 30 round 9mm magazines. Although I love the 30 round capacity, those well […]
Most of my backpacks have a specific purpose. Kryptek camouflage for hunting and hauling a rifle. 5.11 Tactical Rush 72 to carry my long range shooting loadout. Various Osprey and Deuter packs for camping and hiking. Ogio Gambit for airline travel, etcetera, etcetera. I just received an urban daypack from Deuter called the Walker 24. […]
While every company under the sun produces tactical clothing these days, finding a good functional duty pant isn’t as easy. Material selection, fit, ergonomics, colors and sizes are all considerations that can either be addressed or neglected by the manufacturer. 5.11 Tactical has been paying attention to the men and women that use their clothing […]

Bottle Breacher, a veteran owned and operated company, has taken charge of the situation with several clever ways to […]
There’s nothing quite like that “dirty feet” smell of a down sleeping bag after a week on the trail. Or that funk emanating from a performance base layer post workout. Most commercially available garment washes are of the one-size-fits-all variety. But not all garments are created equally. In fact, the fabrics used on Gore-Tex outer layers, […]
Sleeping on the unforgiving ground in a tent doesn’t always lend itself to a good nights rest. Finding a way to get comfortable on the ground has always been a challenge for me. As much as I love hiking and camping, a solution had to be found in order for me to continue enjoying an […]

Always pushing the limits in both quality and durability, Nemo Equipment has been a constant in my camping loadout for years. If you’re like me and are conscious of every ounce you put into your pack, take a look at the […]
As many of you may know, I’ve been writing for The Loadout Room for over 2 years now and would like to introduce someone new. My wife Brandie, has been my steadfast partner for over 20 years now. She’s the Mother of my 2 sons and is always up for whatever crazy adventure we conjure […]
Anyone who spends a fair amount of time training with firearms knows the dreaded task of magazine loading. It’s one of those things that abuse your thumbs and hands. But it’s also a necessary evil that we partake in to better prepare ourselves when arriving at the shooting range. Because time is precious, I like […]
