Flyye Fast Attack Plate Carrier | A combat proven budget plate carrier
Plate carries are an essential bit of kit for anyone operating in a hazardous environment. At some point, you will need the protection – whether in the PMC industry, law enforcement, or the Military.

Choosing the right kit
One thing that a lot of people just getting into the tactical shooting community generally struggle with is the selection of kit or gear setup (plate carriers, chest rigs, holsters, etc.) that is right for them. If you’re like me, you’ll go through a wide array of gear before you settle on something or maybe multiple things that […]
Warrior Assault Systems Enhanced Patrol Belt
When it comes to belts I am not a fan of them, never have been, but I see the use for them in addition to a plate carrier. My main problem with belts have always been the fitting issues under heavy loads they just slip and slide around. I understand that they are a benefit […]
Special Operations Gear: RECCE/SNIPER Chest Rack

If you’re already in an uncomfortable situation shouldn’t your gear be comfortable? With this […]
Velocity Systems UW Pusher Chest Rig Gen VI
Flashback to 2016 to me, an advanced infantry school student, sitting in the pouring rain after being awake for 47 hours continuously and finding myself as the navigation man for the 5th straight patrol. Yet again it was dark and I was digging through my admin pouch for a red lens light and map pen […]
Triple Aught Design Spectre 22 L Backpack
When Triple Aught Design (TAD) comes out with new equipment or apparel, I know that I just have to get it and run it through some testing. The TAD Spectre line takes the “grey man” gear needs and balances the lines between tactical necessities and provides a civilian appearance. The Spectre systems adapt to the […]
