Professional Gear Reviews
The AR 15 puts them in modular. As a platform, the rifle can be converted to basically any use. It can be a carbine, DMR rifle, light sniper rifle, and an SMG-sized silent killer. It’s been adopted to numerous calibers, including big-bore calibers. Today we are looking at one of the more popular AR big-bore […]
If you are stuck for a Christmas gift idea that is unique, high quality and exclusive (and who doesn’t want that?) then the Loadout Room store has something for you: The Limited Edition “Dead Men Tell No Tales” custom-designed hoodie. We went to Independent Trading Co and asked for their very highest quality hoodie. What […]
Good quality is often hard to find. Good quality, at a good price, is often even harder to find. Fortunately, for guys and gals like me, always on the lookout for quality gear, there are options out there. Added bonus? When you can find solid, rugged, and affordable American gear.

Being outdoors is awesome. Nature is purely amazing, and it never gets old. Except when Mother Nature is pissed, like with a hurricane, earthquakes, huge fires, or something like that.

I have tried out many types of load-bearing equipment (LBE), load-bearing vests (LBV), and plate carriers over the years. Yet, it’s refreshing to come across gear that has […]
The alcohol flask dates back to the 18th century. It was a way for society’s gentry to always have some brandy, cognac, or whiskey handy while on the move. In cold weather, alcohol was thought to keep you warm when all it actually did was numb you to how cold you actually were. Back then, […]
There is an old saying that an army marches on its stomach. It’s attributed variously to Napoleon or Fredrick the Great, but neither said those exact words in that exact way. Nevertheless, it’s true.
