The Loadout Room
Professional Gear Reviews
We have covered several water filter systems here in the Loadout Room. Everything from the smaller portable filters to the larger family size filter systems. I typically have some type of emergency filter in my pack when out on the trail or in the woods. They are a nice option to have if you run […]
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. I’ve humped through marshes and swamps just to get to a crystal clear spring. Anyone who hikes, humps, and enjoys the great outdoors will tell you there is […]

The tinderZIP is […]

Awhile back I was flipping through Facebook like a zombie when I came across a post for an interesting looking product. It was the Rogue Stash Tag from Rogue Dynamics. Rogue Dynamics is a Veteran owned company that sells everything from T-shirts and patches to tactical and urban escape and evasion gear. Always interested in […]
The ESEE Mess Tin Survival Kit, in my opinion is one of the most comprehensive survival kits I’ve seen in a long time. Each one of the items contained in this kit have been carefully selected, are quality made and serve a specific purpose. With this kit alone I have no doubt that I could […]
I wasn’t around to see the fad but rumor has it back in the early 2000’s hydration bladders were so in you could find them in every school, shopping mall and skate park. I was busy filling up my hydration pack (downstream from goats and cows) a few thousand miles away in the sandbox, but I’m confident the […]
