As always, I am a huge proponent of carrying and using whatever you have at your disposal. However depending on how you’re trained or how your brain works, because we are all different, certain firearms can be more conducive to your shooting skills than others. That being said I have my own personal standards for […]
There are many benefits to getting into competition. Whether you’re simply tired of the static range, looking to sharpen your skills, or wanting to test them against others in a safe and legal way, competitive shooting offers a lot.  There’s a style and category to fit just about anyone’s budget, interest, and skill level. A […]

Between the Polar Vortex and record amounts of snowfall in February alone, Northern Michigan has become a winter wonderland. Last week, over three feet of light fluffy snow has accumulated and begs to be played in. Fortunately, MSR was kind enough to send out a couple of pairs of their Lightning Explore Snowshoes to help […]
The real test of a newly designed piece of gear, in my mind, is a two-part question of its function. Is there currently a problem? Does this piece of gear solve that problem? JTACtical identified a problem through his experience as a Law Enforcement Officer and his experiences in the military. The problem was that […]
I grew up wanting to be an aviator but it wasn’t until I met my flight instructor (Mrs Meisner) that it became a reality. Long before I had my pilots license in hand, I still wanted to look the part. I recall asking my mother to swing by the Base Exchange at McChord AFB so […]
