What Veterans Day Means to the Loadout Room

Veterans Day at the Loadout Room

Often on Veterans Day, Veterans are asked what their service meant to them. This Veterans day we decided to share what Military service meant for some of us. To all the Veterans out there, we raise our glasses and offer our sincere thanks to you, and your family for your sacrifices and your service. Happy Veterans Day.

My most used piece of gear while in the Marine Corps

My most used piece of gear while in the Marine Corps

Pictured above was my first Gerber multi-tool I purchased at the PX on Camp Lejeune, NC shortly after checking into my unit (2/8 WPNS Co.) in June of 1993. Back then we didn’t have the internet to order stuff or even research options. You could order through a catalog at the time, but I didn’t want to […]

full auto versus semi auto

Full-Auto vesus Semi-Auto

I grew up in a family full of Veterans and one of my favorite memories was heading to coffee with my Grandpa Jim and all the other WW2 Vets in town.  Hearing the way they bullshitted with each other left a strong impression.  Deja Vu set in once I joined the Army, as hearing a group […]

Now in its second iteration, the Gen 2 has noticeable improvements over the Gen 1 models including molded Picatinny rails on the handguard, a new front sight, new receiver, improved stock, and overall better ergonomics. There are still many […]

Running for the Lows

Watch: Running for the Lows

A short film that explains the value of an activity, such as running, that is not only healthy physically, but enables reflection for the war fighter.

TRACKING HUMANS AND RIDING HORSES

TRACKING HUMANS AND RIDING HORSES

(Article originally published on MOTUS) One of the oldest forms of transportation is the horse. Since the invention of the motor vehicle most of us don’t ever really find any use for the horse except for recreational pursuits or taking a loved one on one of those sunset beach trots on some tropical island. In […]

22 Every Day: Check your six

We’ve heard the numbers.  On average, 22 Veterans end their own lives every day.  This is an abhorrent reality, one in which 22 of our nation’s defenders feel their situations are so untenable that they see no other way out every day.  It’s a sad reality, one that many people much smarter than I are working hard […]
