The Trijicon ACOG is a legendary optic among many servicemen who have relied upon its durability and versatility during combat. While I am lucky to count myself among that group, my time spent overseas was spent with the venerable TA01 which has been surpassed time and time again by more advanced offerings from Trijicon. While […]

Hazard 4 | HWD Snowfield watch
There is no doubt that those in combat need the highest level of durability possible for their gear. If it isn’t up to snuff, it will break and in a hurry too. There is another environment which is also notoriously abusive to gear, though many don’t know about it. Underwater, specifically undersea. The abrasive salt-water is […]
Geigerrig Tactical Guardian | Advanced Hydration System
I wasn’t around to see the fad but rumor has it back in the early 2000’s hydration bladders were so in you could find them in every school, shopping mall and skate park.  I was busy filling up my hydration pack (downstream from goats and cows) a few thousand miles away in the sandbox, but I’m confident the […]
Cruxord Stainless Steel Guide Rod for your Glock
As a product review writer, I find excitement in the big, fancy products just like everyone else.  Equally, I find the little components that incrementally improve the machine to be fascinating.  I don’t believe the next generation of service rifles or sidearms will be a revolutionary leap forward, I believe they’ll be sum of all the improvements […]
XS Sights | Big Dot Tritium Sights
XS Sights (formerly XS Sight Systems) is packing some nice tritium sights into a little package. Â When given the chance to shed the stock blocks from my Glock 17 franken-tester, how could I say no? Â The question isn’t really whether XS Sight’s product is an upgrade over stock, it’s whether the 24/7 Big Dot Xpress […]
First Look: Ranger Proof Enhanced ELC Carbine
AR-15s have been described as the “barbie dolls for men”. Â I prefer to look at them as Legos with which we can build any rifle, pistol, or Short-Barreled Rifle style we want from a $400 plinker, to $3,000 safe queens. Â The available mix of after-market and factory parts is bewildering and offers more choice than […]
Emerson CQC-14 Snubby: For those who live in areas with strict knife laws
As one of the premier knife makers in the world, Emerson knives has always been proud to call America home. Despite their name being ubiquitous with handcrafted excellence, I haven’t had a chance to run with one of Ernest Emerson’s blades until recently. In the mail arrived… the CQC-14. As stated on Emerson’s website, the […]
Thermacell Heated Insoles
We finally got a stretch of weather here in the Pacific Northwest worthy of being called winter. Â Still mild by the standard of bearded northmen, but cold enough I finally got to put Thermacell’s Proflex Heavy Duty heated insoles to use. Thermacell has a pretty neat setup here. Â The padded Li-Ion batteries fit in the […]
Noisefighters Sightlines | Earpro upgrade
After leaving the Marine Corps, Noisefighters owner Neal Brace had more in mind than drinking a few beers and picking up some odd jobs. He set his sights on inventing and producing upgrades and improvements for a number of different products. From scope throw levers to improved AR charging handle designs, Neal’s had no shortage […]
