Unlike a lot of carriers on the market, Marz includes with theirs, substantial shoulder pads. Believe it or not, you need to purchase separate shoulder pads with plate carriers from some other companies or the padding they offer is not very good. . . . → Read More: Marz Tactical Gear Plate Carrier Review

Part of their RUSH Backpack line, the RUSH12 is the smallest (RUSH24 and RUSH72 are the other two in this product line). Given that 5.11 describes the RUSH24 as a one-day pack and the RUSH72 as a three-day pack, it’s safe to assume that the RUSH12 is a ½ day pack; a pack good for day hikes, etc. All in all I was pleased with the unit. With the caveat I documented earlier – this isn’t something you’re going to be able to turn on “instinctively” when you find yourself suddenly under attack, so you’d be better off activating the video recording each time you get out of your vehicle – it’s a good tool. . . . → Read More: Brite-Strike Duty Light Camera Review Republished by request due to Hurricane Irene and pending Hurricane Katia. For many years now I have preached about the need to build Bug out bags, Go Bags or – as I’ve now learned to call them – Get Out Of Dodge Bags (GOOD Bags).

That is, isn’t that information from someone who’s been on scores of the most dangerous, high-risk, sensitive missions, in places where there’s no defined “end of shirt”, worth a lot more than the opinions of almost anyone else? Continue reading Tac Pistol Operator & Tac Rifle Operator A couple years ago I became aware of an exercise tool called FitDeck. And while a “deck” can be something you stand on, it can also be a deck of cards – which is what it is in this case. A FitDeck is a deck of cards wherein each card in the deck (and there are several types) has an exercise on it. Directions for doing that exercise, how many reps you should do based on whether you’re a beginner, intermediate or advanced PT type person, and diagrams showing basic positions for the exercise are on the card. The decks are designed for given occupations or circumstances and I have found them useful. Once I opened my mind up though, they got even more so. Luminox has been a recognized leader in manufacturing rugged watches for quite some time now. I remember, more than a decade ago, looking at one and thinking, “Yeah; I’d like one of those.” Of course, back then dollars were a lot tighter than they are now and I really couldn’t justify the need. Then, a few months back, I was surprised to receive a Luminox as a gift. The Luminox I received is a now-discontinued model, the 3959 EVO SEAL Orange Series II. Still, I consider it representative of Luminox quality, so having put it through approximately six months of steady field testing, I felt it was worth reporting on. Continue reading Luminox Field Test No, this isn’t an equipment review. That said, there are sufficient news items from the main-stream media this morning that I felt HAD to be addressed; and the potential impact of those news items does combine to threaten us in some way. “Us” being everyone in a uniform as well as all Americans who pay attention and don’t like being mislead or mistreated. Let’s take a look at some of them. |
