The Loadout Room
Professional Gear Reviews
My Remington 870 Wingmaster has seen a lot of abuse. It’s an older shotgun with a lot of character if you will. I never felt updating this little gun from the standard Remington polymer stock and the pump was necessary, but I was curious about Magpul made shotgun gear and the Magpul SGA series of […]
The market is saturated with day packs. With so many to choose from it can at times be difficult for a company to stand out with a product. Cannae comes to the scene with the Legion Elite Day Pack which stands out in several unique ways that I found particularly useful. Even though this pack has some very specific […]
Another January in the books and two major trade shows attended. Like last year, I attended SHOT Show in Las Vegas with the crew from the Loadout Room. And then flew directly to Denver for Outdoor Retailer the following week. Two weeks living out of a 5.11 suitcase and backpack in various AirBnb’s but I’m […]

One that doesn’t sacrifice anything in ways of comfort or weatherproofness. Muck Boots have a long tradition of producing fantastic rubber boots for hunters and […]
Hoback Knives is a brand we are now taking a closer look at on the Loadout Room after our initial impressions of the MK Ultra we recently reviewed. The Hoback Knives Hero Series are nothing short of works of art. Although they are really nice looking blades they are meant to be used as tools, […]
The FirstSpear AAC Frog kit is without a doubt a game changer in the world of those who like to get wet. No other company specializes in product development quite like First Spear and my relationship has grown with them over the past year. I was ecstatic to be able to test out the AAC […]
With attacks on our homeland, we have the responsibility to defend it against all threats foreign and domestic. Politicians and mainstream media are both labeling these weapons anything but what they are. I have personally used these style rifles in the defense of my country and now as a veteran. In the hands of a […]
