Courtesy of Breach Bang Clear Monday Night Knife Fights: Ruben’s Blades Tom Marshall This week we’re looking at a one-off “tactical stiletto” hand built by Chad Ruben of Ruben’s Blades. The blade you see here was custom built for the author as a proof of concept for a knife that could retain some of the […]
Courtesy of Breach Bang Clear Speed & Precision: Pistol Red Dots vs. Irons by Paul Gardner; 📷 by inimitable Taylor Lange Red dot sights on pistols are becoming ever more prevalent with each passing year, as the benefits are huge. I’ve personally been shooting some brand of red dot on a pistol since 2011, when Trent Zimmer, CEO […]
The Mora knife is a kind of sheath knife that has a small size and a fixed blade. It is often attached to the belt for easy access. Because the Mora knives are often made of very tough components, it’s powerful regardless of the size. The knife can fulfill most tasks, from preparing food or […]
Barbara Hodgin, who was once president of the Pacific Crest Trail Association, is old enough to remember a time when, if you asked a backpacker what was for dinner, the standard answer was either “brown in a cup” or “green in a cup.” A clever hack for trail pad thai was an envelope of unsweetened lime Kool-Aid. Now, […]

Glock’s introduction of the G41 Gen4 provides one of the best pistols possible for tactical teams, specialty units or officers used to carrying full-sized pistols. As a longtime Glock 20 user, […]
In late April of this year, one of our Glock 19s was damaged during a training exercise. The pistol was set up for a failure to extract (sometimes called a “double feed”). Two live rounds were used for this drill. I have done this drill well over 200 times over the last six years, and […]
By Chad McBroom People are constantly asking me for recommendations concerning defensive blades for every day carry. This is always a difficult question for me because it’s more complex than just recommending a particular knife. It’s actually more akin to answering the question, “What car should I buy?” Well, that depends. Are you a construction worker in need […]
This is the annual cost concept of living and operating as a modern vagabond with moderate (world) travel and minimal luxuries. “Vagabonding is relatively like any way of life with deliberate budgeting and moderation. Furthermore, there tends to be less unnecessary bills and committed financial strains of a “normal” stationary lifestyle.” – JOHN V CAIN […]
