The Loadout Room
Professional Gear Reviews
As a dog owner I try to take Loki (meet him here) on all my outdoor activities. Eventually I hope to use him as a bird dog (maybe even this year). However, for now I am just happy to give him as much exposure to as many outdoor activities as possible. Awhile ago I wrote […]
Normally I would go into lengthy detail about an item that I would talk about in the Loadout Room. The Gatorz sunglasses with polarized lens are probably the best sunglasses that I have owned in my 47 years in existence. During my 14 years as a Navy SEAL, I really only wore Oakley sunglasses, but […]
Recently I received a Comms Check from one of our readers (Mike Pyryt). He was wondering what we thought of ZORE, a gun storage start-up company on Indiegogo.

We had been gathering intelligence and tracking a high value target behind enemy lines in southern Afghanistan for the past four days. With the intel we had gathered, we sent up our reports to an […]
The Sea Hunter is an unmanned surface vehicle (referred to as: Anti-Submarine Warfare Continuous Trail Unmanned Vessel, or ACTUV) which was launched in April 2016. With the success of the UAV (drone) program it was an inevitability the United States Military would seek unmanned vehicles for other environments. Differing from UAVs, a ACTUV would be […]
It has been a long time since I have been excited about a “game changing” device. That all changed when I learned about Triton’s underwater breathing gill. Basically, using this compact device you could breath underwater. The device would extract oxygen under water through a filter made of fine threads. After a little more research […]
Depending on what your outdoor activity is, being seen is extremely important. Typically when you are hunting with a modern firearm your State will have specific rules with regards to the type of clothing, and even how many square inches that clothing must be worn. For example, here in Washington the regulations state, “Under the […]
