100 Deadly Skills – Survival Edition – Skill 58 Barricading Inward Opening Doors. In a panic, most will pile up random items against a door to keep bad guys out. Which is better than nothing. There is always a more effective way. Barricading a door can be preplanned and rehearsed – which I highly recommend. […]
I ran into a jeweler while in Los Angeles the other day and struck up a conversation. He told me that at one point he was contemplating on ridding his entire inventory of everything except for watches because of the substantial profits they were yielding for him. It turned out to be a blessing that […]
Arc’teryx apparel can be found in some military units, and exclusively seen on the new History TV show Six, but how about using it in your civilian life without being too tactical? You may have read a few of my previous posts in continuing to acquire and test low-visibility clothing that makes carrying a concealed […]
Whether you’re an action star who regularly deals deathblows with pencils or just an ordinary guy like the rest of us, the Gerber Impromptu Tactical Pen is worth some consideration for your everyday-carry (EDC).

This knuckle based tool is designed to break glass, faces, and other similar things. Unlike a full knuckle duster, this tool covers a […]
For me personally, book reviews are generally more difficult to write up. Maybe it’s just because it’s not as sexy as a suppressed short barreled rifle or high-speed piece of tactical gear. Not the case AT ALL with Nick Koumalatsos’s new book, Excommunicated Warrior. Through this book, Nick covers the 7 stages of transition when leaving […]
With Christmas right around the corner, you might be looking for a couple of great gift ideas for your fellow prepared people. One awesome and affordable gift is one of 5.11’s newest EDC lights. The EDC PL 2AAA is a pen-sized EDC light designed to give you a little powerhouse of a flashlight. The EDC […]
Gatorz, man, Gatorz. When talking about Gatorz Eyewear, its kind of the best of both worlds. Durability and performance are all I ask for when I’m looking at shades, and Gatorz definitely packs that 1-2 combo. I hate not having a good pair of shades on and honestly, I never knew Gatorz would soon become […]
