Axelson Tactical is a business I hadn’t heard much of until eight months ago. At that time, I was sent one of their competition muzzle brakes for review. During my research period for that article, I realized I had heard the name Axelson before, with regard to Operation Red Wings: Matt Axelson was a Navy […]
There are phrases, parables and colloquialisms abound that deal with time.  Being in the right place has only ever been half the recipe for success.  The accurate keeping of seconds and minutes is imperative to many, but of the utmost importance to some. With that in mind, it is easy to see a thriving niche in […]
With cold temperatures coming down upon us in most parts of the country, it’s time to start thinking about ways to manage the cold in case of emergency. Â While many of us have a basic emergency kit in our vehicles, it’s good to have a box (I use a milk crate) kept in the vehicle […]
We’ve all been listening to the AR-15 vs AK-47 debate for years. Rather than being content with producing quality AR’s, CMMG has thrown their hat into the hybrid ring and has produced the MK47 Mutant: a heavily modified rifle based on the AR-15, chambered in 7.62×39 and adapted to use AK-47 mags. Based on CMMG’s […]
During the majority of my military service with the 2nd Ranger Battalion, I used an Aimpoint M68/Comp M2. While I also used an ACOG at times, the trusty Comp M2 rode with me on nearly every mission during my 5 combat deployments. Never one hiccup, never one failure. Aimpoint (of Sweden) earned a great deal […]
Grey Ghost Gear (GGG) is one part of the strategic triumvirate that also features Grey Ghost Precision (GGP) and Tactical Tailor. While GGP deals in lead-slinging hardware and Tactical Tailor knocks out mind-boggling amounts of gear tailor-made for warfighters, GGG has a somewhat smaller scope. To me, the result of this focus is GGG having an […]
Tactical Assault Gear (TAG) started up back in 2001, producing quality tactical gear out of Imperial Beach, California.  While primary ownership changed when LC Industries purchased TAG, their commitment to producing 100% Made In America (and Berry Compliant) gear remains the same.  Today I’m writing about my experiences testing out their Everyday Pack in Multicam Arid. Weighing […]
Vorn Equipment of Stavanger, Norway has quietly been releasing some fantantiske rifle packs.  When I received their Lynx  hunting pack a few months ago, I had positive initial impressions.  Now, I’ve had the Lynx for long enough to really test it out and get a feel for how it performs. Vorn’s Lynx is a 12 to 20 liter […]
ALG Defense is the sister company to Geissele Automatics. While the latter has won a hard-earned reputation as a manufacturer of premium AR aftermarket triggers, ALG Defense is warranting attention on their own merits. Started by Amy Lynn Geissele (hence, ALG) in 2012, ALG Defense brings a pedigree of precision machining and innovation to the […]
The Woodsman shirt by Prometheus Design Werx (under their Danger Ranger Bear line) is billed as being “like your grandfathers favorite outdoor shirt he wore to the cabin”. Â True to form, trying this on was very reminiscent of borrowing my father’s, or grandfathers, wool shirts for hunting in the Alaskan wilderness when I’d grown big […]
