Barska Portable Biometric Lock Box

Being “Armed” is like having an affliction. You can’t drink when you’re carrying a gun, traveling with it is difficult and wearing speedos at the local pool impossible, or at least downright uncomfortable.

Surgical, precise, fluid, dynamic, tough and always ready describes the professional operator, executive, or adventurer. Limited only by the constraints of physics and his own humanity, the professional operator carefully chooses every piece of gear he carries. The responsibility for remaining both agile and quick leaves no room for any gear which only serves a […]

The Tribe: Four ways you know you’re breaking away from the herd

*Republished with permission from Eric Davis Blog Getting Out In 2008 I was in the midst of a nasty deployment schedule and what felt like the continuous death of deployed friends. So.

Prepared for adventure: Philosophy intro

*Republished with permission from Eric Davis Blog You no longer need to prepare for emergencies: Flood, fire, hurricane, earthquake, terrorist attack, industrial accident. Whatever.
