Black Buffalo

Black Buffalo Is The Future Of Dip, Honoring The Past

Tradition isn’t getting tossed—it’s getting reloaded, as Black Buffalo hands dippers the same gritty ritual without the leaf, built by Americans who know the watch, the barracks, and the weight of a round can in a back pocket.

Pic of the Day, Viking Motorcycle Bags 45L Tactical XL Bag

If you’re the kind of rider who doesn’t ask for directions and thinks a “weekend trip” involves crossing a state line or two, Viking Motorcycle Bags should be on your shortlist. These guys don’t mess around with dainty saddlebags or fashion-first gear. They build storage solutions for riders who treat weather forecasts like a suggestion […]

Hunting in Texas

These 5 ATV Dealers Will Get You Ready For Hunting Season in Texas

If you’ve ever dragged a blood-soaked game bag a mile through mesquite and mud, you already know—real hunters need horsepower. Get yourself an ATV.

Black Widow and the Brain: Palladyne and Red Cat Prove the Future Is Autonomous

Let’s get something straight right out of the gate—there’s hype, and then there’s hardware and software doing the damn thing. Tactical drone systems come and go, but earlier this year, Palladyne AI and Red Cat Holdings didn’t just talk about next-gen drone warfare—they flew it. In a real-world test that pulled no punches, the two […]

Craft Holsters Makarov Tuckable IWB Holster Report

As my dear readers both on Patreon and here on The Loadout Room are aware, I’m a longtime fanboys of the 9x18mm Makarov pistol. Granted, the Mak isn’t quite the all-time sentimental favorite that my beloved Beretta 92FS aka M9 is. Nonetheless, the Cold War classic Pistolet Makarova holds plenty of sentimental value for me. […]

CIVIVI RS71 Review : Big Blade Energy

Some knives are tools. Others are toys, the samurai sword you show off to Jeff from down the street. The CIVIVI RS71? It’s both, with the attitude of a dive knife, the action of a fidget spinner that just shotgunned three Red Bulls, and the build quality of something twice the price. This thing doesn’t […]

Streamlight ProTac Rail Mount HL-X: A Thoroughly Bright Review

Streamlight ProTac Rail Mount HL-X: A Thoroughly Bright Review In a world that can get unexpectedly dark, whether you’re negotiating the treacherous terrain of your living room chasing a midnight snacky snack or trying to navigate a forest infested with bears, mountain cougars, and God knows what else; having a reliable flashlight is a must. […]

Civivi Brazen Review: The Best Budget EDC Knife under $75?

Not every knife needs to be the main character. Flashy, all dressed up, and sparkling with superhuman power and costuming. Some blades aren’t here to steal the scene, they’re just here to get work done. That’s the CIVIVI Brazen in a nutshell. It’s not trying to be your next family heirloom, or something you’ll cry […]

KA-BAR: The Knife That Won Wars and Built Legends

Few tools in American history carry the weight of legend, grit, and blood-soaked valor quite like the KA-BAR knife. More than just a hunk of steel, the KA-BAR is a symbol of American resolve; from storming the beaches of Normandy to the dusty hills of Afghanistan. It’s not just a knife. It’s the knife. Forged […]

ARES Watch Company Diver-1 & Field Watch: Unstoppable Tactical Watches for Land & Sea

When it comes to rugged, no-nonsense timepieces built for professionals, ARES Watch Co. has set the bar high. In this review, I’ll be diving deep into the ARES DIVER-1, testing its durability, precision, and real-world performance as a go-anywhere tactical dive watch.
