Glocks are pervasive everywhere you look in the firearms community. Maybe it’s their slogan of “Perfection,” maybe it’s their 30 year history, or their borderline boring reliability. We can debate that, but one thing is also certain: people modify them to a great extend to make them “perfection” for their own needs – be it […]
If you have a carry weapon, it should probably have a light. And by probably, I mean definitely. As most of our readers know, we mostly carry Glocks, but you can carry whatever you like. As long as you’re competent and accurate with it, it’s a good option for you. However, if you carry a […]
As you’ve seen in a previous post, we’re all about the curved blades and retention rings. This knife—the Picolomako – is one of my favorite to carry. It’s comfortable, the sheath is robust and well attached, and capable of being deployed in a variety of carry options. Let’s get into the specs. This blade is […]
As our readers know, we advocate greatly for the use of an IFAK, especially if you carry a concealed weapon. If you’re going to put holes in people, you better know how to patch them – we’ve all heard the cliche. But it’s a cliche for a reason – it’s true. My Medic puts out […]
If you’ve spent any time in a Crossfit gym or with a bunch of runners, you know LAX Balls are used en masse to break up knots. You’ve probably even seen them taped together to make “peanuts” to break up your thoracic muscles. I know, I used them like crazy when I was doing workouts […]
I said it in my last post, about the Acumobility Ultimate Back Roller, that you need to recover. And as a culture, we spend so much times at a desk, and ignore thoracic extension and back health in general. How many people do you know with a “bad back?” How many times have you personally tweaked your […]
If you’re going to train hard, you need to hydrate. Hydrate. And then hydrate some more. Especially when it’s 100 degrees plus in the summer like where I live. But plastic bottles not only are horrible for the environment, they leech toxins when it gets that hot. And, if you spend as much time on […]
Recovery is everything. There’s no point in going hard, if you’re not going to recover properly. Contrary to popular belief, you can’t run three Murph’s in a row, and not at least stretch, hydrate, and roll out a bit. Now me personally, I have a tough time keeping my thoracic mobilized. Despite staying very active […]
Lowa has been making boots for nearly 100 years – 1923 to be exact. They’re all handcrafted in Europe, and all around stellar boots for the trails to the rat race of life. You know we loved the Lowa Zephyr GTX Hi boot and their more lightweight offering, the Aerox GTX Lo Surround has even more […]
I picked up another pair of the Electric sunglasses as I was very happy with my first pair (see our review for the Charge). Right out of the box these glasses feel light but strong enough for day to day abuse. The first thing that I like is that the glasses stay on my face […]
By Alexander Castiglione Part of a good EDC, next to a good knife and pistol you are competent with, is a good holster to carry said pistol. I’ve been through my fair share to find the right one that didn’t print, was comfortable, and easy to access. I like the Crossbreed Freedom Carry for my […]
The SP-8 from Ontario isn’t like any machete you’ve ever seen. It’s a monster. And it chews through brush and thickets like a monster who is only hungry for brambles, saplings, and a clear path in the bush. This behemoth has a 10 inch straight blade, and tips the scales at over 22 ounces. It’s […]
We had heard the word that Navy SEALs used the Luminox watch – so we purchased one to review and put to the test. It has been 3 months of testing in the field and it has not broken yet. I picked up the watch for $189 on Amazon. Review from John R: I’m not […]
I recently got the chance to check out another Werkz holster – the M2. This one is for my trusty and oh-so-compact G26. It’s kind of hard to find a good holster for such a small CCW. They’re either inaccesibly low riding, or they print as much as a full size – so what’s the […]
