I have a passion for getting outside and for fitness. Anytime I can combine the two, I’m all in. Hiking is a family favorite for my family. The adventure of going out into the woods and exploring new trails and terrain unlocks the human mind and spirit. I also like rucking for fitness as an […]

Plenty of companies make extended Glock magazines, including Glock, ETS, Magpul, KCI, and more I’d probably missing. A normal mag pouch is cut a bit too short for most […]
