MRE’s are the pinnacle of “ready when you are” grub for the door kicker on the move. Â After decades of refinement, we’re finally at a place where the food in the brown bag rivals that of what you’d find in a chow hall (Maybe not an Air Force chow hall, but the rest of ’em […]
I have used this set for about three seasons now, and I still love them. The Moment Field Dress Kit includes two blades, and a sheath designed to hold the blades simultaneously. Prior to this kit I had been cycling between different blades, but they always seemed to be lacking in some way. I could […]

Bowhunting season is right around the corner. Make your preparations now. My previous hunting season started off in the rain. I was disappointed. I enjoyed the evenings sitting in front of a fire, relaxing after a long day hunting. However, the disappointment quickly evaporated as I was presented with my first opportunity at a deer […]

Â Suppressed Armament Systems (SAS) has certainly found theirs; […]

Â Designed from the ground up as a dedicated precision riflescope, this line is catering to the demanding shooter rather than the casual plinker or fair weather hunter. Offered in either 4-16x or 6-24x, it’s clear Nikon wants […]
With the ever advancing march of machining technology bringing us lighter and stronger parts made from exotic materials, it has been recently popular for writers to detail their efforts to construct a lightweight AR-15.
