Radian Raptor Limited Edition charging handle in MultiCam Black

Today I’m doing a quick review on the new Radian Raptor Limited Edition Multicam Black charging handle and ambidextrous safety selector.

All proceeds went to organizing the Defend the 2nd […]

E.A.R.N. – A simple but effective way of mastering your fitness regimen

In the pursuit of bettering one’s self from a physical standpoint, there are so many options available today. There is no “one size fits all” approach to fitness nor has there ever been. I’ve met people from all walks of life in peak physical condition; some of them do insane amounts of running, swimming, and […]

Sneak peek at the Grey Ghost Gear RRS Transport Bag

We just got in the new Grey Ghost Gear RRS Transport Bag. The idea behind this bag is a vehicle go-bag, so that’s how I plan on employing this bag. Over the course of the next few weeks, I’m going to load this out as a vehicle go bag in my Chevy Silverado Trail Boss. […]

Jerry Miculek versus Bump stock | Man or machine?

.50 BMG versus Steel plate INSIDE ballistic gel

Rifles, optics, plate carriers and more: we at Loadout Room test and review a wide variety of gear. Sometimes though, we like to sit back and watch shit blow up. While I’m excitedly working on this week’s reviews, I currently have exactly zero .50 BMG chambered rifles, armor-piercing-incendiary-tracer (APIT) rounds, or even a nice little […]

The Crate Club Battle Axe: Slice and Dice in Style

I’ve only been working for Crate Club a few months now and in that time I’ve seen some awesome stuff come through the Crates. But this is by far my favorite piece of gear. This isn’t an off the shelf item, but an ax designed by the Crate Club crew. It’s production numbers are limited to 8,500 […]
