Professional Gear Reviews
I recently reviewed a product from a company that is designed for quick access to ammunition for the armed professional. The Tac-Tote Magazine Carrier is a phenomenal piece of equipment for anyone working in law enforcement, security, or the military. The Tac-Tote STO is the big brother to the magazine carrier. It takes everything that […]
The slender shape of this knife is a perfect choice for a gentleman, combining sophistication, stealth, and technology. If James Bond were to carry a pocket knife, the ZT 0450CF would be a solid choice.
More space is better was my general approach when I was carrying a pack in the Marines. I wanted the ability to carry more when necessary and didn’t mind toting a half-empty pack. I stubbornly kept that idea as I became a civilian and always went big. This creates some interesting excursions when you move […]
If you’ve been prepping for a little while, you’ve probably got the basics covered. You have a bug-out bag, a decent stash of MRE’s or #10 cans of freeze-dried food and a plan to keep it all secure once you’re hunkered down. What’s next? Besides piling up more supplies, what else can you do to […]
Throughout my life, I’ve been drawn to the Hawaiian island chain. Born on the Island of Oahu to an Army Lieutenant and his wife, my roots were set early and deep in this island paradise. Over time, I’ve returned to Hawaii more than I can count. With each visit came a new adventure. Whether it’s […]
Once Overland Expo East came to a close on Sunday, my wife and I had 850 miles to cover on our way home to Michigan. We had a good time at the Expo despite the comical amount of mud created by constant rainfall. Back we’d travel through the beautiful Smokey Mountains. We arrived in Hendersonville […]
In an increasingly asymmetric battlefield where the fight is often brought close to home, or deep inside “green zones” one should be prepared. Chemical warfare agents have been used as recently as in the Syrian Civil war. The terrible thing that many people don’t realize about chemical warfare agents is that depending on the agent, they don’t […]
If you’ve been in Law Enforcement or the Military there’s a good chance you’ve likely tried out more than one Tactical boot. Maybe you found that you didn’t know your true boot size or perhaps the boots fell apart after a short amount of use. In any case it’s good to garner more information on boots. […]
When I was a kid, I almost always bought a cheap “switchblade” comb at the county fair every year. It seemed every detective movie I watched with my grandfather featured a switchblade at some point. I always thought automatic knives were super cool, and my grandfather carried a Buck pocket knife daily. So, I was […]
You need a multi-tool. That’s all there is to it. A multi-tool is something that is always a part of my kit. Most Rangers in a tactical setting will always have a multi-tool somewhere on their person. Over the years I’ve accumulated 6 or 7 different multi-tools from a myriad of brands. I keep one […]
