The Loadout Room
Professional Gear Reviews
The LOWA Z-8S GTX was one of the many pair of boots I wanted to review. Thanks to them, I was able to review them today. Before going into details I have to admit that I have a thing for LOWA. I have been using the Elite Desert for a while now and they are […]
When it comes to gloves, we have tons of possible avenues to take. In 14 years as a Canadian Light Infantryman I have tried countless different pairs of gloves. While some were from known companies, others were from local shops. When I picked up a pair of Mechanix M-Pact Coyote Tactile gloves I immediately liked […]
I remember when I first joined the military and we were issued those Vietnam-era flashlights. They needed 3 “C” batteries and would only last for a few hours. Nowadays, many headlamps are available, but one of my favorite pieces of gear has always been the helmet light. When you have to quickly check your map, inspect […]
Whats a Loadout Room without a proper loadout bag? A mess. Here is a piece of gear for all your cool pieces of gear. Of course we all love our kitbags, and why shouldn’t you. The thing has yet to fail me and it’s almost a bottomless pit of kit and clothing. But taking a […]
The: Approved for Naval Use (ANU) Watch I’m extremely glad that they chose to use a “Nato” strap on it that runs through both pins. I’m tired of losing watches in the surf zone.
I recently came across an interesting video about current gear in the Russian FSB Spetsnaz. Hands down these guys always had the newest most advanced gear at their disposal. Times of the “I just need my AK and my sneakers” are gone. Instead we see that at least these guys don’t talk BS that tracked […]
Most of the time when we see gear: buckles, ropes, guns, knives whatever. We see it through our own eyes and limit it to our own vision. When we get a chance to look at gear through the eyes of the operator and the designer the possibilities become endless. Check out the quick Blue […]
SHOT Show was a “whirlwind” of guns and gear. We made our way through the floor interviewing some of the finest companies to learn about them, and their gear. Stay tuned as we release several more episodes during the next few weeks. Here are just a few of the companies we spoke with at the […]
For all you tech gurus out there. Here’s a shot list of the physical gear I used for the GROM series. Canon 5D MarkIII Canon 7D Canon 35 f/1.4L Canon 27-70 f/2.8L II Canon 17-40 f/4L GoPro Hero 3 Black Two different Manfrotto tripods with two different video heads on each 2 Sennheiser wireless mics LiteProGear’s […]
Personal locator beacon, GPS and text messenger. To stay streamlined, light and mobile I’m always looking for devices that can serve multiple purposes without getting too complicated. The DeLorme 2-way sat communicator looks like it will fill a gap for me while out in the field, overseas or in a disaster situation where local methods […]
