Professional Gear Reviews
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 […]
A watch is a great way to finish off your look. Not only can watches be a lifesaver to those in the military, but they are a staple in a gentleman’s daily carry and wear. I own both the Auto Pilot and Valor from NFW and they are nothing short of rugged, dependable and bad-ass, which is why we chose them […]
SWAT recruits getting smoked in an attempt to weed out those that should not be there. Every day started with a few hours of PT (physical training) in full gear, which sometimes included your gas mask. The goal; PT until someone quits. Simple concept, easily achievable. Go home, rest, and do it again the next […]
The Maschinenpistole 40 or MP-40 is an iconic design that speaks volumes to gun-lovers around the world. Be it from history books, video games, or movies several of us have come to love what was one of the first practical submachineguns.

During Logans time in the Infantry, he noticed that his Vietnam era issued gear was a little lackluster and needed modifications to be made more effective. After purchasing a used commercial sewing machine, Logan began modifying gear, designing bags, […]
There’s a limited set of training options for rucking other than rucking itself. But, rucking is the one sport that requires practice in that act, only, to improve. To ruck you have to ruck. But, I say that with one caveat – endurance running helps a ton. Embracing longer runs, ten or more miles every […]
There is a major shortage of firearms in Kurdistan today; this is primarily because there is a war being waged. With the small amount being trafficked into Kurdistan and the majority of the weapons from the coalition being sent to Iraq and Syria, very few find their way into Peshmerga hands. This creates very unique problems and solutions […]
Potynsky is a decorated veteran, having served as a Green Beret from the US Army’s 3rd Special Forces Group, with combat deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. After leaving the Army he deployed again to Iraq for a private security company. Upon his return, Potynsky founded Northern Red Inc, a training facility established to bring current […]
With ammo prices falling and panic-buying over it appears we can finally return to the joys of shooting. Schools, training, and good-ol’-fashioned plinking are once again in our futures. higher-volume shooting means higher-volume loading. In the Army, we used stripper clips and the ever-sacred adapter that sometimes perfectly, and other times not, loaded ten rounds […]
