War of Words: In the Ultra-Competitive Defense Tech Industry, Storytelling is a Secret Weapon

Welcome to the LoadoutRoom, Todd Barrish from Indicate Media! We live in dangerous times, and escalating geopolitical tensions have unlocked billions of dollars in public and private technology investments to modernize defense capabilities around the world. This demand for innovation has led to a surge in VC firms and startups entering the defense sector, directly […]

NO METAL & PLENTY OF NOSTALGIA: The “X-2” G10 Blade by Black Triangle

Another great article from Sean Northrop. MOVIE SLOGANS!  Most of Us can remember walking into our local Movie Rental Store, and seeing them everywhere. The posters, the cardboard cutouts, but almost always on the front of each Movie case. Love them, or hate them, they all ultimately served one purpose, to convey a message. Usually […]

Tier One Concealed, Awesome Holsters and Awesome Service

The latest from Sean Northrop. When was the last time you were shocked at how well a company or service responded to an inquiry you had? For me… It wasn’t that long ago at all. Some of you may have had a few times things went faster, or better than expected, but we all know […]

Suppressed 5.56 Short Barrelled Rifle Velocity Test Data: 41 Factory Loads from 10.5", 11.5", 12.5" & 14.5"

Suppressed 5.56 Short Barrelled Rifle Velocity Test Data: 41 Factory Loads from 10.5″, 11.5″, 12.5″ & 14.5″

There is much confusion about the effects of these short barrels on velocity. It makes sense that a shorter barrel will produce lower velocity, but how much less? Since the Army rolled out the 14.5 inch barrelled M-4 in 1992, there have been a lot of people shooting shorter barrels. The SEALs developed the Mk18 […]

Five Important Things to Know Before You Carry Concealed

Five Important Things to Know Before You Carry Concealed

The 2nd Amendment has given us the liberty to carry a licensed pistol but this doesn’t mean that we should ignore the fundamental rules of firearm safety. With great power comes great responsibility, carrying a licensed gun is subject to a promise made by every citizen that the pistol will be used safely for legal […]

Transforming into a Velociraptor: The Les George Sabot

If you ever dreamt of becoming a dinosaur as a young boy, the time has come. As soon as I pulled the Les George Sabot out of its sheath I felt as though I had deadly talon attached to my hand. Not only does it resemble a talon in appearance but in sharpness as well, […]
