Holy Mother of Blessed Acceleration, don’t fail me now! The words of Elwood Blues echoed in my head as I entered the highway interchange with .25 miles of space to navigate across 7 lanes of traffic, including the on-ramp. Along the way I also had to deal with a love-struck Romeo performing a running roadblock […]
You couldn’t walk anywhere without seeing advanced technology applied to something, seriously it was SHOT Show again except specifically for special operations forces. SOF Week 2024 brought out the big guns—literally and figuratively. This year’s lineup showcased some serious tech that’s set to revolutionize the battlefield for special operations forces. All this and more was […]
Many companies have a good warranty and stand behind their products and many go above and beyond with that notion. But rarely do you find the President and CEO of a company literally standing behind something that could blow up in their face as they use it, just to prove how good the product is. […]
Holsters are like rifle slings, you need one and would prefer one you like but often you end up settling for what does the job. For me at least, my concealed carry woes are gone thanks to 1791 and their new line of Light Bearing Leather Holsters. The size 4 fits my light-bearing Glock 30 […]
Two months ago I received this 45L pack, normally it doesn’t take this long to get a review out about an item, especially one as good as this, but this took a while to learn just how good it was. I’ve used it for work carrying my laptop, lunch, and water, I’ve used it for […]
BAM! Ping, BAM! Ping, what better way to spend a Sunday morning with Grandson # 2 in tow? BAM! Ping, suddenly Darth Vadar’s theme music is blaring in my ears. What the ….. Devil is going on? Oh wait, these are BlueTooth ear muffs and they were/are paired with my phone that’s back in the […]
I like flashlights. NOT as much as I like knives, but I like a good EDC flashlight and thankfully there are many choices available to pick from these days. NITECORE has many flashlights but not all have the bells and whistles the MT2A PRO has. A penlight with the dual power source of 2 AA […]
I’ve owned at least 200 knives in my life so far, thanks to a trip back to my family home in 2019 I found my first knife and still have it today, albeit a bit worse for wear. Since that first knife, I’ve owned cheap knives, expensive knives, swords of many types, carbon fiber knives, […]
When I started Military Security work, safety glasses were almost non-existent. Later in my Law Enforcement years, they were often of dubious quality compared to today’s standards but the idea of one set that was useful and included lenses to wear indoors and outdoors hadn’t become a “thing” yet. Today, thankfully we have Bolle Safety […]
Going to the range is always fun, getting to shoot more guns and some awesome Black Hills ammo makes it even more so. In this case, I was testing my new Glock 30 with its 3.78″ barrel and comparing it to my old CCW pistol a Springfield XDS with its 3.3″ barrel. I wanted a […]
