Professional Gear Reviews
Range bags make life so much easier. If you’ve built a dedicated range bag you really don’t know the level of convenience you are missing out on. I remember the days where I was shoving guns in the Tupperware they came with and putting ammo, ear and eye pro into a grocery bag. Times have […]
It is officially spring which means the hiking and camping season is here. Gear for either activity can get pretty expensive if you’re just starting out, not to mention that there is a myriad of options to choose from. Fittingly, I received the Winterial 11-Piece Camping Cookware Set to review for our readers. After having […]
The Individual First Aid Kit, aka the IFAK, is a concept that exploded during the Global War on terror. No longer was Doc the only guy carrying trauma gear. Every Marine and Soldier is equipped with an IFAk and if their leadership isn’t a failure they’ll know how to use it. An IFAK is a […]
Multi functional tools are often the best tools. When a multi functional tool is lightweight, pocket size, and functions in coordination with tools you already own then it’s even better. The OST 2.0, or Operator Survival Tool, checks all the above marks. It’s a lightweight system that’s only a little larger than a tube of […]
One of the things I miss about being an active duty Marine is the ingenuity of Marines. Marines are made to adapt and overcome. We evolve as the tides change. If you ever want to see real genius in play stick a Marine somewhere and deprive him one of the things all Marines need to […]
The world can be a scary place, and oddly enough the places it can be scariest are the most beautiful. I’ll never forget the sunsets in Afghanistan.

If you have ever drank Whiskey you know that it’s better chilled but you also know that putting ice in your drink will dilute your treat. They do offer things called whiskey stones that are like small rocks that you keep in the freezer and can drop in your drink accordingly to make it colder […]
Maybe it’s just me, but the tactical world and tactical industry are starting to trend towards discrete and concealed carry. I’m in no way against this, in fact, I rather enjoy it. It’s fascinating to see the industry change and evolve into one that’s more friendly to concealed carry and civilian carry. Crate Club is […]
CamelBak and I go back a very long ways. When I was 18 someone from CIF handed me one and sent me on my way. From there one we traveled to close to a dozen different countries. On every patrol and in every firefight I was in, it literally had my back. The convenience of […]
Vacuum insulated drink wear is the latest and greatest fad to go hit the outdoor market. Calling it a fad is a bit much, as it’s not likely to change anytime soon. The Camelbak Forge is from famed hydration pack manufacturer CamelBak. The Forge is a 16-ounce vacuum insulated travel mug designed to add a […]
