M4A1 Block I: The Special Operations Origins of an American Icon

In the annals of modern warfare, few firearms have risen to such iconic status as the M4 carbine in its various forms and configurations. But before it became the ubiquitous symbol of American firepower, there was the Block I. A weapon forged in the crucible of special operations, where innovation and lethality walk hand-in-hand. The […]

NovaSteel Ballistic Riot Armor, Covering Every Threat Level

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 […]

My First Experience With The 6.5 Creedmoor

From LoadoutRoom contributing author, Sam Jacobs.  More of Sam’s work can be found here. I was late to the party for testing the 6.5 Creedmoor. For years, I’d heard about it outperforming the 308 Winchester, but I must admit, I was a bit stuck in my ways and thought a lot of the hype would […]
