Review: First Tactical’s Summit Side Satchel
Courtesy of Breach Bang Clear Review: First Tactical’s Summit Side Satchel Chris Hernandez Years ago I swore I’d never do two things: wear a reflective belt or carry a “man purse.” Thanks to the Army, I had to break my promise not to wear a stupid reflective belt. Last week, thanks to First Tactical, I broke […]
Red Rock Defender Pack | First Look
Saying I have a thing for packs might be an understatement. I never realized how many I had, and how I can’t separate myself from them. I have everything from old school metal framed ALICE packs to Blue Force Gear’s latest offering. They all have a role to fill in my life. The newest pack […]

I’ve used a few different bags, but they all shared something: they were “common” bags that were designed to carry something other than a firearm. I stayed away from bags that […]

Hi-Vis Spring Essentials
Spring has sprung. It’s time to ditch your winter coat, say goodbye to all those pockets, and get back outside. While the warmer weather is a welcome change of pace, it’s not always sunshine. Spring usually means rain, so it’s important that your EDC gear has some level of water resistance. It’s also the time […]
