I hate this holster. That’s my first thought on day one of carrying the No-Print Wonder with my Walther PPS M1. It was poking me, rubbing me wrong, and generally uncomfortable. It’s not my first IWB holster, and I hadn’t had this issue before. I wasn’t sure if I was wearing it wrong, or what. So I […]

The Gerber brand has been around for years, and you’ll be hard-pressed to find anyone that doesn’t know the name as soon as it rolls off the tongue. For over a decade I have seen their knives in the PX/BX, various hunting, and camping stores and even in diplomatic shops for embassy workers overseas. They’re […]

Owning a watch is a tradition that dates back multiple centuries, a tradition that the military actually played a major hand in influencing, and a tradition that still continues today in the world of digital technology.

The guys at Vanquest are in a very competitive backpack/Go Bag market. Let’s face it, there are many companies that offer quality products that meet the requirements of the grunt, the student, or the regular 9-5 Joe. If you are like me, I have tons of little stuff that I use frequently. I use a […]
What Is A Drill? Drills are a method of repeating something over and over until you can’t screw it up. Courses of fire are timed scenarios that are designed to test our skills and diagnose what we need to work on. If there is one thing that I have learned from my time using guns, professionally or otherwise, […]
