The Tru-Nord compass is a precision instrument, specifically designed for use in wilderness areas, day or night where an accurate, dependable quick reading compass is essential. Some assume that the higher grade button compasses – AA – mean higher quality, but that’s not necessarily true. They are generally plastic and give a general direction for […]
Whether you know it or not, everyone has an Everyday Carry  kit, including yourself. The difference is that those of us with a survival mindset actually put a little thought and planning into what we carry around with us on a daily basis. Everyone’s kit is going to be a little different depending on where […]
Half Face Blades is a small shop run by former Navy SEAL Andy Arrabito. His bladesmith skills and attention to detail are a step above many other knife shops. He also builds custom orders for active SEAL Teams and in return gets real-world input for his many designs. We have previously reviewed the Crow Scout […]

The question we get asked a-lot is ‘what type of gear do you get each month?’ We have done a previous article highlighting what has been sent out in the first quarter this year to give you an idea of […]
Ranger Nutrition is a Veteran run business. ALL Ranger Nutrition products are designed and manufactured in the United States! We have previously reviewed the BCAA Amino Drink mix (Ranger Candy) and the Nitro NO2, which are both great products (check out the review HERE). I recently got to sample a serving of the Ranger Candy […]
In a recent article I wrote about the 4 must have items in a medical kit. One of those items was the tourniquet. I’ve always had a tourniquet in my medical kits, but until I had some formal training I really understood the application of them. The medical training I recently had was part of […]
Dry fire is a must if you want to keep your fundamentals in check and stay on top of your shooting game. I’ve tried several dry fire programs in the past and we have even reviewed some Dry Fire cards here on the Loadout Room. Those all have their intended purpose and generally do well […]
