If you follow my writing you may know I’m a big fan of covert and low profile gear. From the Elite Survival Systems bag to the combination of Premier Armor and Tru-Spec armor shirt I really love low profile gear that accommodates something more than a Baby Glock. The Desantis DSD Rig is my newest […]
When traveling to the range I like to keep the number of items I have to carry to a minimum. I have used a hard shell rifle case for a number of years for traveling with my rifle and also for local range trips. I recently decided that I wanted something lighter and easier to […]
Stow, Ohio, USA, May 1, 2018 – Following the February 2018 school shooting in Parkland, Florida, that left 17 dead, bulletproof backpacks and backpack inserts received a lot of attention across the country.
