Tactical Distributors Carlos Ray 2.1 | Initial Impressions

Tactical Distributors Carlos Ray 2.1 Pants | Initial Impressions

Who is Carlos Ray? He is none other than Carlos Ray Norris (a.k.a. Chuck Norris), so you can imagine that the TD designers made these pants to live up to that Icon’s bad-ass reputation. I have been wearing the Carlos Ray 2.0 for over a year now. These have been one of the most comfortable […]

Tactical Distributors McQuade Lightweight Jeans | Initial Impressions

As you know, by now from all my previous posts on the Loadout Room,  I am always looking for the best pair of low-visibility, action-oriented pant with the ability to stash all my EDC gear. I have owned the TD Stand-your Ground and previously wrote about those, but the Tactical Distributor McQuade jeans top the charts. […]

Celtic Shield Wallet

The Celtic Shield Wallet has become a part of my EDC along, with my ZT0350 knife and a few other miscellaneous items. As an added bonus for me, I will no longer be caught without my Ranger coin…

5.11 Ridgeline Pant – Purpose Built and Quietly Tactical

5.11 Ridgeline Pant – Purpose Built and Quietly Tactical

The 5.11 brand is known throughout the law enforcement and tactical activities groups worldwide for their quality gear; most of which was designed and enhanced by the folks that utilize the products every day. Built with the same material as their Stryke pant the cargo pockets give the appearance of casual wear but were designed and […]

5.11 Tactical Defender Flex Pants | First Impression

5.11 Tactical Defender Flex Pants | First Impression

We’ve all seen the dude walking through the mall with a pair of overtly tactical cargo pants, OD green rip-stop nylon shirt, backpack and tactical boots, right? This clown might as well have a sign on his back that says “kill me first” should a mass shooting occur. He’s either advertising that he has some […]

Trayvax Wallet: First Impressions

Trayvax Wallet: First Impressions

Recently, my wallet of about seven years decided that it didn’t want the job anymore and proceeded to disintegrate. I have always had two wallets; one for everyday life, and a second that I took hunting. Why have two? Well, while hunting, I don’t need all the credit cards, club cards, and daily junk that I […]

5.11 Low-Vis Defender Flex Jeans | Preview

Watch: 5.11 Low-Vis Defender Flex Jeans | Preview

Walking through the SHOT Show Industry day you can’t help but to notice all the tactical cargo pants, velcro and molle webbing sewn to every square inch of nylon. I was pleasantly surprised walking up to the 5.11 Tactical tent. Yes they are known for their uber tactical clothing and gear, but this year (2017) […]

The Tactical Distributors – Stand Your Ground (SYG) Jeans

The Tactical Distributors – Stand Your Ground (SYG) Jeans

Currently, there are 23 individual states within the U.S. that have passed Stand Your Ground laws (NOTE: always check your local firearm laws). A Stand Your Ground law is a justification in a criminal case, whereby a defendant can “stand their ground” and use otherwise unlawful force without retreating, to protect and defend themselves or […]

Arc’Teryx Bravo Jacket: Quick Review

I was initially going to review the Bravo personally but a week after receiving the jacket I signed an exclusive with Massif so I wanted to make sure the jacket got a fair unbiased review. That said, I did wear it for a week and fucking loved it. I had a hard time letting it […]

Arc’Teryx Alpha Jacket: Quick Review

I’ve been wearing the Arc’Teryx Alpha jacket for months now and can give this piece of kit The Loadout Room seal of approval.  It’s a high-dollar item, but worth every penny if you need high performance gear.  The Alpha jacket is a wind/rain jacket, not a thermal jacket, and as such it wears well over […]
