The Loadout Room
Professional Gear Reviews
So for years, we have been sold on the idea that we need tactical gear in order to be high speed and get from point A to Z with our stuff intact. Multicam and molle covered packs, with a half a dozen special pouches to hold “the gear” has become the norm. Then a couple […]
I served in the U.S. Navy from 1976-1979 as a Machinist Mate aboard the U.S.S. Horne CG-30 out of San Diego, Ca. This was a fairly quiet and transitional period for the military in the Post Vietnam years. Most people in the country really didn’t want to hear about the military nor cared about the […]
A couple months back I saw a post by former Recon Marine Rudy Reyes about a friend of his, a former Marine Scout Sniper, who was selling hoodies made of poncho liner material. Now anyone who has served in the Army or Marines knows that the poncho liner AKA Woobie (I’m old school and always […]

Maury is a former Marine, Federal Corrections Officer, and contractor for the government. Last year Maury announced that he was offering his own combat […]

At that workshop, a good part of the day was dedicated to medical response actions the average person can do at the scene of an active incident. The instructor for that block of instruction Doc John Duncan former Navy Corpsman assigned to Force Recon mentioned using a […]
About a year ago I decided that I wanted to include a trauma/active shooter medic bag on my gear line up. I looked around at the various manufacturers and didn’t really see anything that fit my needs. Even though I’m an EMT I was looking for a very basic loadout. My planned load would consist […]
Recently I’ve been reevaluating my medical needs and carry methods. I’ve been traveling more frequently for business both by plane and rail so weight and bulk are a concern. My usual travel companion is my GORUCK GR1 pack with the stuff I need to work with while being mobile. As an EMT for over twenty […]
About a year or so ago I was checking out the 215 Gear website when I came across their Bolt Bag. I liked the concept so I order one in coyote brown. The idea behind this bag is that you can use it as a stand-alone bag or attach it to any molle platform with […]
