Midwest Industries has been around for a while and they have been consistently offering reliable products at a competitive price. Their 10.5” combat rail has just been another continuation of that legacy, and I have had a great experience with mine being installed on my primary AR over for over 2 and a half years.

Among the worst of problems when you start out in Night Vision Equipment is becoming accustomed to the oddity of wearing a helmet with what is essentially a heavy unicorn horn hanging off the front. It is in no way natural to have something heavy on your head to start with, and pulling one direction makes it worse. It takes time for the muscles in your neck to adapt, and it can be a painful experience.

Some folks are born into money while others work really hard or are incredibly lucky. John Walton wore his wealth well, possibly due to his hard times while in uniform.

Ryker USA was founded by retired MARSOC Master Sergeant, Ron Holmes. Unsatisfied with other slings during his deployments, Ron set out to design the best rifle sling he could. Today, we’re introducing the Ryker Sling, a sling designed by experts, backed with decades of field experience.

The goal of this rifle build for me was to build an ultra-light semi-auto long-range rifle that was capable of multiple precision shots out to 1000 yards and weighed less than 7 lbs

. This pistol is designed to check all the boxes for the ideal carry gun. Straight from the factory, the 509 CC Edge features a low-profile optics mounting system, fiber optic front sight, an auto-indexing compensator that cuts muzzle rise by 25%, and a flat-faced trigger.

If you’re not familiar, prism optics are fixed-powered optics that excel on AR’s because of the modern carbine-like nature.

Of everything I carry on a daily basis, surprisingly, the tourniquet is the item that starts the most conversations. 

The problem with cheap batteries is that they may leak, they may corrode quickly, or they may have incorrect power regulation. None of which are a good idea in your $1500 laser, or $500 tactical light. Saving a couple of bucks on a battery is a terrible plan if it may destroy the internals of an irreplaceable electronic device.
