Sometimes it’s not what you know, but who you know. It certainly helps when it comes to getting ahold of something that’s prohibitively expensive, or just plain old hard to get. It just so happens that recently, a friend of a friend was nearing the end of his time kicking down doors and shooting watermelons,... Continue Reading →
I’m going to get the obvious out of the way before we look at this in detail... Yes, it’s very similar to the Microbat Systems Candy Pouch, but I don’t think that actually matters... I’ll explain why, later on. I should also mention that this pouch was gifted to me by Andy at Tacbelts UK... Continue Reading →
As much as a lot of the gear I've reviewed has already been tested by people whose lives depend on it, very few are used in such a critical role as the Safariland holster I'm writing about today. I'll be looking at my own particular experience with this holster, which is around 6 months of... Continue Reading →
So where did the idea for this purchase first come from? Well, if truth be told... I’m easily led and generally if something gains enough traction, I’ll probably end up as part of the hype train too. Mr “Obi Wan Nairobi” caused quite a stir when he decided to go full “John Wick” against Al... Continue Reading →

I've previously covered TacBelts replacement headbands (See Here), and whilst you'd have thought there wasn't much else I could have written about them, you'd be wrong. One of the things I like about TacBelt's main man Andy (And certainly one of the key reasons his business grows and grows) is his meticulous attention to detail.... Continue Reading →
Fanny packs or to use their British moniker "Bum Bags" are something of an enigma, no one really knows if they're beyond cool or dorky as hell. A lot of it depends on who you ask... if you ask my wife? Well, let's just say I'm not allowed to wear one... No exceptions. Dwayne Johnson... Continue Reading →
Micro Rigs... Whilst they're great for providing a small and very high speed ammo carriage option, don't you sometimes wish you had just a little more storage? After more than a couple of months the with the Haley Strategic D3CRM "Micro" (Reviewed Here), it's become apparent that I'm in need of something to carry my... Continue Reading →
Gloves... One of the most important things you can invest in for manual work. Whether it's shooting or climbing, landscaping or working in a warehouse... You need to find a glove that'll allow you to carry out your job effectively but also protect your hands from your environment. Amongst the professionals in the shooting world,... Continue Reading →
Fabric wrapped holsters... In my opinion, they're fantastic. The major problem with most rigid holsters such as those made from Kydex or Nylon being that anything that touches them can generate unwanted noise.
