5.11 Tactical made big waves this year with the introduction of the new Hex Grid system they are using for packs, bags, and plate carriers. Needless to say, the idea of being able to mount gear at a variety of angles spoke to me. Upon seeing the All Missions Plate Carrier I knew I had […]

The Brush Demon Machete: Eat the Jungle
Florida often invokes a specific image, Disney Land, beaches, sun and fun style living. Which is all true, but doesn’t represent the entirety of Florida, just the places people want to go. Not many people want to cruise over to Northwest Florida, the land of sun, mosquitoes, and what feels like a tropical rainforest at […]

The 5.11 Defender Flex Jeans
“Oh, I get it now.” was the first thing I thought as I put on the Defender Flex jeans from 5.11. I’m a pretty frugal guy when it comes to clothes. It can be hard for me to justify spending 70 bucks on a single pair of jeans. That all went to the wayside as […]
The Omni Hyrbid Lower Receiver: The Future or a Flub?
I’m far from a Luddite in terms of guns. I love new technology and love seeing companies push the bounds when it comes to using different materials, bucking the norm, or just trying something new.
