Being low-key is a big factor for the places I work and move around in. Any sort of 5.11 type clothing is just not used and concealment is life and death at times as far as handguns. Real estate on my waist is expensive. And avoiding printing of a magazine holster is at times difficult. Recently got my hands […]
Not every encounter or engagement is going to be a static target 25 yards away. Most attacks happen within what’s called the combative bubble. If you were to draw a circle around yourself that was 7 yards from your centerline, that is your combative bubble. Anything that happens within this 7 yards will more likely […]

Sometimes this gear serves its purpose in the way it was designed, for example, Merell boots were adopted by numerous soldiers on their own dime. Other times the gear is modified to fulfill a certain purpose. The Pak Rat is a […]
Suppressor durability is an often discussed topic these days. As technology, metallurgy and mounting systems change, so too the rate of ablation on these cans change. The same effect is true of rate-of-fire, with full-auto creating a far more harsh environment within the tube than slower rates of fire. As companies pour more money into […]
I have a real affinity for shoulder holsters, and I don’t know where it comes from. I like to say its from living in Florida and being a Miami Vice fan. However, being in Florida doesn’t give me a lot of opportunities to wear a shoulder rig, and good shoulder rigs are expensive. Is the […]
