When troops want to put themselves to the test and become members of the Special Operations Forces community, the Selection courses are frequently a source of treading in unknown waters. You’ll be asked to conduct exercises that may seem alien or unknown and you’ll frequently be in the dark until the last possible moment. That […]
In our Selection preparation, we always stress the importance of Rucking and the value that all of the services put on it in the Special Operations community. The services will all stress the 45-pound minimum in training and one of the frequent questions we get is why train with 45-pounds when in reality the amount […]
Triple Aught Designs’ FAST Pack Litespeed is one of their top-selling items, and it’s easy to see why. My first thought when I actually got my hands on this pack was, “wow, this feels really durable.” After carrying the Litespeed at work for a while, including during a police driving course that put the water resistance to […]

And the biggest key to that is being properly prepared to do so. We went back and recently […]
We evolved our line to include all the attributes that were needed from all the different sub-sectors or law enforcement and military. If you look at law enforcement, if you’re a SWAT operator, that’s a very different requirement from a patrol officer or a canine operator. In the military, you may have an officer and […]
As a Law Enforcement Professional I have seen my fair share of holsters and with today’s web accessibility there are many companies out there trying to make a buck, dishing out poor quality products. That is not the case with Bravo Concealment. They are a quality company that make quality custom Kydex holsters at some […]
Lume shot of a Rolex Submariner and a Seiko Sea Urchin. I spent some time customizing that Seiko auto into a classy(ish) / survival(ish) timepiece and it came out nice but after I put it on for the first time, I thought, “wait, I got a Rolex that this watch was copied off of, f*ck […]
