Fortunately I live in a state within this country that doesn’t infringe on my 2nd amendment rights to carry a concealed weapon. With the current published ISIS threat within the United States, remaining vigilant is of paramount concern every time I leave my house. This is why I stick to these basic items in my […]
When there is noise in the middle of the night and you intend to investigate you will need to have some choices on illuminating the problem, especially if you go with your firearm. Clearing your house for potential problems is difficult during daylight hours, but at night without proper illumination can be downright dangerous. Unintended […]
You would think that being stationed on a Marine Corps base gives you that warm and fuzzy feeling of safety at all time but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Unfortunately, concealed carry on base is strictly prohibited and to be honest the nearest armed Marine with live ammo is a call and a […]
In certain situations, a good flashlight should be part of everyones EDC. Although I don’t always carry a flashlight on my person, when night falls or I’m in a theater, you better believe I have a good light handy. As with all EDC gear, personal taste and individual requirements will dictate what makes the grade […]

You hear a text jingle from your pocket. You pull your phone out but there’s no longer cell service despite being in the middle of a city. Something is seriously wrong and you figure that out faster than most. It’s time to get by based on what you carry with you every day. Doesn’t matter […]
I thought about this list before I started writing. There are some items I carry in special circumstances/environments which are extremely useful to me (i.e. LifeStraw while hunting). However, I was asked to compile a list of items I would have everyday, regardless of special circumstance/environments. So what follows is what you can always find […]
Have you been looking for flashlight that is simple to use, reliable in all weather conditions, and doesn’t break the bank? Well look no further than the Surefire 6PX Defender. I’ve used other flashlights in the past; Mag lights, Streamlight, and Fenix, but always seem to come back to the Surefire 6PX Defender for several […]
