Since the beginning of SOFREP.com, we’ve always been involved in giving back to the veteran community and others. In just the past 12 months we assisted some 25 charities including the Red Circle Foundation, the Glen Doherty Foundation, the Spec Ops Warrior Foundation and the Raider Project just to name a few. In keeping with […]
“So WOWGO sent me their new electric skateboard to try out. Hudson, the girls and I took it for a spin on the Island. We wanted to see how fast and how far we could push it. Let’s just say I WAS NOT disappointed!” – Nick Koumalatsos Check Out WowGo Electric Boards
There are a plethora of skill sets that when put together make one a suitable soldier of fortune. What I aim to bring to light are a few that many people would never think of as necessary to that mission. Of course, this is all my opinion (as usual) but I’ll be sticking to my […]
Marine Corps Scout Snipers are legendary in the community. Once you have passed the initial screening and get accepted into a STA platoon you start learning the basics of fieldcraft, scouting, stalking, land navigation and long-range precision shooting. Once you have proven yourself as a PIG you have the opportunity to attend the Marine Corps Scout Sniper School. The sniper […]

My first exposure to ‘Gunny’ R Lee Ermey was the movie Full Metal Jacket. In that movie (as most of you know) he played the part of the Drill Instructor. Full Metal Jacket is one of the best films that depict Marine Recruit Training accurately. Being a former Marine myself, I can confidently say that […]
Let me start by acknowledging the obvious question – why would you want or need a pair of handcuffs if you aren’t a law enforcement professional? For starters, it is good to have a pair to practice shimming and picking to increase your proficiency with them in case you are ever illegally held against your […]
First and foremost I’m not here to belittle anyone or their views, I won’t be calling anyone “snowflake” or “libtard”; I find such things extremely distasteful and they seriously detract from having a meaningful discussion between opposing viewpoints. Rather than just throwing memes at each other, I believe in having a rational discourse. Please lend me a […]
The Ocean Crawler Champion Diver Barracuda Point is one of the rare watches in the sub-$1000 price range ($949 to be exact) that I would consider a true everyday watch. Virtually all watches can be transformed by simply changing out the strap or band, but the Barracuda Point accomplishes this transformation better than any others […]
