The Loadout Room
Professional Gear Reviews
Experience and failures have made me always keep my bag close by. When getting into a taxi or Uber I always have my backpack with me, between my legs. Usually, I tie one of the drawstrings from my Pocket Candy La Manga-Tenegui’ to the bag and the other end to my belt as an added […]
I remember that feeling of having the “keys to the kingdom” when I was taught how to pick locks and surreptitiously enter… well, places that didn’t expect me to be entering. It was awesome, but it took a lot of work and now years past I realize that it’s what’s called a “Perishable Skill” which […]
SOG Specialty Knives & Tools has been expanding their line to impressive levels. Far from just simple folders, they make multi-tools, hatchets, and now bags and packs. Just like their knives the SOG packs are purpose-built with important details considered. We recently had the chance to evaluate the EVAC Sling 18. As the name describes the […]
What is the importance of a go-bag and why should you have one? “I kinda have a unique job, so my loadout is tailored to the main purpose of the pack.

Arc’Teryx LEAF recently released the latest addition to their equipment line – the Courier 15. The secure and manageable bag has some cool features that got me all hot and bothered.

The Warne RT-1 is our featured firearm accessory today and it meets all those adjectives and is priced for the budget conscious shooter but doesn’t […]

We test and evaluate quite a bit of gear, clothing, firearms and firearms accessories. Our goal with this series is to sift through all those articles and give to you what we actually […]
Take a knee and drink some water. We’re going to take a moment discuss some different systems that can keep us hydrated. On the table today is the Qore Performance Ice Plate, MSR Dromedary, Camelbak, and Source hydration bladders. Much can be said of hydration and how to carry water on you. This is meant […]
Blue Force Gear has been garnering a lot of attention in the last couple of years (rightfully), mainly for their significant advancements in the design of load bearing equipment. Their use of proprietary materials in their ULTRAcomp fabric, as well as their Helium Whisper attachment system and MOLLEminus designs, have generated a new standard for […]
We’ve all heard of 5:11 right? Long known for being the one-stop shop when it comes to overt tactical gear, 5:11 hasn’t rested on their laurels: they’ve continued to push into new markets as evidenced by their discreet lines of clothing and firearms carry displayed at this year’s SHOT show. Today, I’m writing about their […]
