A Smoking Relief: Why Cigars Are a Veteran’s Best Relaxation Tool  I am not here to explain why cigars are either good or bad for your health. I am here to share with you about an experience that you and I had at least once during our military careers. Before I joined the military, […]
Hey everyone, I wanted to take a break from the tips and include a review of my favorite Plate Carrier (PC.) I have been wearing this plate carrier for the last 3 years, and I must say, it exceeded my expectations in several key areas. First and foremost, the construction of this plate carrier is […]
Summer is upon us in south Florida, and that means sweat – lots of it. Standard beach (and shooting range) attire here seems to consist mostly of sun shirts – those light & loose SPF tops that fishermen wear. Yeah…that doesn’t work for me. While they might ward off the UV rays and provide a […]
Honey, I’m ready for Black Friday shopping at Wal-Mart. Well, maybe that’s a bit extreme but have you seen those people running/fighting for the last X-Box or PlayStation? In today’s society riots happen quickly and without much warning often escalating into armed conflict. Multi-threat protection is needed to stay safe in these environments but sadly […]
Does anyone remember the old M1 “Steel Pot” helmets from WWII/Korea/Vietnam? They were a visual representation of the American fighting man, as seen on marketing and recruiting materials the world over and even in the comic strip Beetle Bailey. They were the best and only protection for your head until a Kevlar version became the […]

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 […]
As a child I remember Herb Phillipson’s Army and Navy store in Utica NY. The tall racks of seemingly endless amounts of gear, uniforms, clothing, firearms, and more created memories that have endured a lifetime. Phillipson’s is gone now but replacing it, at least online, is a store that seems to hold as much wonderful […]
Have you ever seen something in a display case and thought, “WOW, I bet that will cause some SERIOUS destruction”? That was my thought at SHOT SHOW 2024 when I was at the Halfbreed Blades display area and saw the LBA-01, their Large Breaching Axe. It was impressive, the entire line of products they had […]
