gear review

Your feet matter. There’s no reason to go through a hunt miserable from foot pain or to risk infection or injury. Invest in Kenetreks and you’ll not only be a happier hunter but your feet will thank you.

Fixed blade or a folding knife? 5 inch blade or a 10 inch blade? When it comes to choosing a knife to venture outdoors with here some things to consider.

Rifles and optics aren’t cheap. Don’t settle for cheap protection for them when you’re traveling.

I recently had the opportunity to try the new FalconStrike Hydraulic Recoil Reduction System. This product advertises that it reduces the recoil energy, the muzzle lift, the peak force, and the rock back when shooting. I received two recoil systems to use on a couple of my more recoil intensive guns. one being a 300 Winchester Magnum. In this review, I write about everything from the installation to the performance.

In 2x, 3x, and 5x varieties, these tough, versatile scopes are just what the doctor ordered for your next hog hunt or trip to the range. Plus, they can be had with one Primary Arms’ innovative reticles tailor-made for your caliber of choice.

For the past 20 years, long range shooters have been looking for a scope reticule that incorporates both hold over and wind and will work with a multitude of various calibers. The problem has always been compromising precision for ease of use and adaptability to multiple calibers. The Tremor 3 reticle accomplishes having an exact holdover system and a precise wind hold system that is really quick to use in the field.

Record levels of gun buying have created an ammunition shortage, one that does not appear to be ending anytime soon. The lack of ammunition has made training more difficult to do. Enter dry fire training.

Best known for its hunting apparel, Sitka jumps into the emergency shelter market with its new Flash Shelter 8’x10,’ a tarp that packs light but rolls out large enough to provide cover for two people. For the backcountry hunter, the Flash Shelter is made to provide quick concealment, and shelter from rain, wind, and snow.

I love the Ultra Custom (spoiler) because of its use of leather as the main component. Personally, I like carrying a gun in a leather holster (especially IWB) because the material is much softer to the touch than other options. However, there are negatives to an all-leather design. The Ultra Custom is everything that a leather holster is, without these negatives. Gun retention is on par with a Kydex holster if it is fit right!
