Professional Gear Reviews
One of the best tests of physical endurance is carrying a fully loaded pack setup for combat operations. Most active-duty infantry personnel are tested in this manner through Indoctrination programs, Special Forces selection programs or through testing systems such as the Marine Corps Combat Readiness Evaluation; which sets the standard for a forced march at […]
The economic, political and social scenery of modern urban centers is rapidly changing. This requires civilians to exhibit a constant state of preparedness for the worst. Buying quality body armor is a safe(ty) investment that can be the difference between life and death. Although you should generally avoid any large gatherings of people due to […]
Tactical Tailor is a well-respected maker of kit in the Ranger community and elsewhere. Part of the reason that they have gained such a reputation in the 75th Ranger Regiment is because they are headquartered in Tacoma, Washington which is also home to 2nd Battalion, 75th RGR RGT. The other reason they have gained notoriety […]
I first laid eyes on this new item from Yeti at Outdoor Retailer in July. Although 5 gallon buckets have been around for awhile, I had to take a closer look at the Yeti LoadOut 5 Gallon Bucket. Typical Yeti over engineering was evident as soon as I picked it up. Made from injection molded […]

If you’ve seen one rifle case, you’ve seen them all, right? When I was asked to review a rifle case from Grey Ghost Gear, I had mixed emotions. First, I was happy to see what GGG had to offer because I’ve never utilized their gear. And I was interested in what they had to offer […]
I said it once, and I’ll say it again, when Triple Aught Design puts out gear… it’s a must to have. If you read my post on the Triple Aught Design (TAD) Spectre 22L pack, you may have noticed my mention of using Control Panels to create mission ready gear based on needs and objectives. […]
I have always heard of the great reputation that Blue Force Gear had with their world-class equipment. However, I have had very little experience with any of their products other than slings. Upon receiving their Jedburgh Tactical Backpack and a few of the Dapper pouches I was immediately impressed. The build quality is exceptional as […]
