Professional Gear Reviews
Contrary to the mass media’s hysterical hand-wringing the idea of a ghost gun isn’t all that special. They aren’t a threat and calling them ghost guns is kind of a dumb way to say home built guns. Building guns at home is an American past time and are completely legal. Our country has been doing […]
It’s that time of the month again! Crate Club unboxing and reviews. Due to relocating the Crate Club warehouse from the East Coast to Ohio, the September and October crates were combined and shipped together in October. So the agonizingly long wait is over. It wasn’t really that bad. Arriving on my doorstep was the […]
It is no secret that I am a fan of ZT (Zero Tolerance) knives. ZT is a product line from KAI, USA. They specialize in hard use, semi-custom, factory production knives at a reasonable price. I started my foray into ZT about five years ago when I purchased my beloved ZT 0301 ST. I carried […]
As the defensive tactics instructor at my department, I am very familiar with Armament Systems and Procedures (ASP). If you are a law enforcement officer you’ve probably heard of the company, they have been dishing out top quality police equipment since 1976. ASP is probably most known for their batons, but produce a wide range […]
I decided to make the 6-hour drive to upper Michigan to hang with Loadout Room writer, Erik Meisner. The purpose of the trip was to put together some short 1-minute sizzle reels, to give you guys a quick snapshot of what we’re all about. After arriving at Erik’s house, we quickly began preparations for the […]
Police officers face tremendous challenges. Their training and gear are put to the test every day. As technology has advanced, red dot sights, such as the Leupold Delta Point Pro, can help officers keep both eyes open, see their sights while focused on a threat in all light conditions and maintain situational awareness. The costs […]
The Black Diamond BBEE 11 pack is one of the coolest packs I have reviewed to date. It is extremely versatile and minimalistic. I have been using it for everything from carrying daily gym attire to shoving a Kel-tec Sub 2000 inside and using it for EDC to putting a weighted ammo can inside and […]
When we’re Overland camping, the days don’t end just because the sun sets. In fact, some of the best times occur when only the stars and moon are out. Whether it’s accessing a remote location after sunset or drinking with friends around a fire, having the best lighting is a key component. Since 2008, Australia […]
For over a month now I’ve been carrying my CZ P09 in the Black Storm Defense IWB holster. Before I started this month I was largely a fan of OWB carry and my everyday carry was a Walther PPS. The jump from a subcompact pistol to a full-sized handgun in a carry method I was […]
Found this photo In my old files. In 1970 apparently, $100 could get you a Hell of a gun and have money for a meal. It’s one of my prized possessions; my grandfathers old Smith & Wesson. -Rick Dembroski
