Is there a trade-off between tightly fit “precision” and a loss in reliability? We don’t think there has to be. If a gun doesn’t run, it’s usually because something has been built incorrectly, NOT because the gun is “too precise” or “too tightly fit.” In this video, we use our TOR pistol to demostrate that even when […]
Resco Instruments Manus: Named after Resistance Fighter, Max Manus
The plan was to attack a large, heavy transport ship, ‘The Donau’. Max Manus met with his dock contacts and synchronized watches. The attack had to go off exactly on time in order to cause the maximum amount of damage to the German war machine while offering the shore-based saboteurs the best chance of escape. […]
Crate Club has Spun Up Operations in our New Warehouse
The Crate Club recently moved warehouses for several reasons, but mainly to streamline our product procurement and shipping services to the subscribers. We had to move ALL inventory from NJ to Ohio which has caused a significant delay in getting crates shipped out to customers. We now have all product in the new warehouse and […]
Direct Action Dragon Egg MK II backpack | A light assault and EDC pack
Typically I shy away from backpacks covered in MOLLE and paracord. They scream tactical, military and give an overall perception to others that the bag contains something along those lines. I’m not sure that I would carry this pack around town in an urban environment because of that. I would recommend this pack for use […]

Emerson Knives CQC-7BW Flipper
I recently received the Emerson Knives CQC-7BW flipper. I’ve been a long time fan of Emerson Knives and own several of them. The one model I never had my hands on was any of their “flipper” models. I went with the CQC-7 for a few reasons; first, it’s a proven blade design that was originally developed with input […]
