Father’s Day is rapidly approaching. Here are a few suggestions for the old man.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For the past two Father’s Days, good old dad has been enduring some kind of lockdown due to the [checks notes] pandemic. By now dad has probably had enough, and unless he is in Australia he has escaped and is on the loose. Show him some love and get him something on this list to help him celebrate the end of his captivity and of course Father’s Day. As usual, every item profiled in this article is something I either use all the time or have personally tested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aadland Engineering makes the best riflescope caps. You have the world’s best dad. Get dad some Aadland scope caps.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

AADMount \u2013 Precision Rifle Scope Caps<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Riflescope caps aren\u2019t what they once were it seems. Twenty years ago you could buy inexpensive scope caps that lasted a while. Not anymore. In recent years I\u2019ve broken more scope caps than I care to recall. Well, now you can buy dad the last set of scope caps he will ever need, at least for one scope anyway. Aadland Engineering<\/a> makes scope caps that are tough and ready for abuse \u2013 so tough they are backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee. You may return them at any time for any reason for a full refund. If you break them \u2013 even if it\u2019s your fault \u2013 they will replace them for free. You don\u2019t even have to be the original owner. Aadmount caps are also very lightweight, and they stay tightly closed. I\u2019ve used these for years and have yet to break one. They are pricey but well worth it for protecting expensive glass. Available for most precision scopes, these American-made scope caps run $99.95.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dad likes to read real books. Get him Scars and Stripes by Tim Kennedy and Nick Palmisciano.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Scars and Stripes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s face it. Your dad is a badass. And men like your dad enjoy reading books about other badasses. Just in time for Father\u2019s Day is this newly released book by Tim Kennedy and Nick Palmisciano. Tim is the ultimate badass. He won the Army Combatives tournament three times and has fought in UFC main events. He has killed evil men as a Green Beret and brought the fight directly to the Taliban and Al Qaeda. He has hunted drug runners, poachers, and human traffickers. He also beat the crap out of Michael Bisping. Tim has done about every dangerous job there is out there. Nick Palmisciano graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point and then served as an infantry Captain for six years. A grappler himself, Nick has been Tim\u2019s cornerman for all of his MMA fights. Nick is also a successful entrepreneur. Scars and Stripes<\/a> offers a candid look into Tim\u2019s remarkable life, the extreme circumstances that tried (and failed) to kill him, and Tim\u2019s struggle with himself. Right now you can pre-order a Scars and Stripes bundle<\/a> from Nick\u2019s company RangerUp<\/a> for $50 (autographed book + exclusive Tim Kennedy tee shirt), or you can do what I did and buy the book on Amazon on sale for $19.48.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fix It Sticks are proven winners. Now there is a ratcheting version for work in tight places.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Fix It Sticks – Compact Ratcheting Multitool<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dad may well already have some Fix It Sticks<\/a> \u2013 the compact and super portable torque wrench kit for things like scope rings and mounts. If he does, he has good taste and he will want the new offering from Fix It Sticks \u2013 the Compact Ratcheting Multitool. As the name suggests, this new version features a reversible ratcheting mechanism much like a socket wrench. Any quarter-inch driver will fit into the magnetic sockets of the Ratcheting Multitool. The ratcheting end has a locking collar that keeps the driver in place. The kit comes in a rubber molded bracket so you can throw the whole thing in a range bag, go bag, or whatever. Torque limiters (preset torque segments) from Fix It Sticks also fit in the Ratcheting Multitool and may be purchased in popular settings such as 25-inch pounds for scope rings. Attachments included in the kit: Mini Pry Bar, several hex drivers (3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 5\/64, 5\/32, 3\/32), several Torx drivers (T6, T8, T10, T15, T20, T25), and some screwdriver bits (slotted: 5mm and Phillips: #1, #2). All of this for $80 from Fix It Sticks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dad wants some O’Neill Ops gear.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

O’Neill Ops<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

O’Neill Ops<\/a> started making the highest quality predator hunting videos before YouTube was a thing. Their videos aren\u2019t just good coyote videos, they are works of art with ultra-high quality footage, professional editing, and perfect music tracks. If dad hunts predators, he knows who James O\u2019Neill is and if he doesn\u2019t know he wants to but just doesn\u2019t know he wants to know. Help dad out. Email him a link to the O\u2019Neill Ops YouTube channel<\/a> and buy him an O\u2019Neill Ops hoodie<\/a> (from $42.95) or one of their other items like the Pound More Fur<\/a> tee shirt (from $24.95).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bushnell Prime 1700 LRF is compact, lightweight, and accurate.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Bushnell Prime LRF 1700<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If dad doesn\u2019t have a laser rangefinder then get him the Bushnell Prime LRF 1700<\/a>. If he has a rangefinder then get him another one because there\u2019s nothing worse than arriving at your destination to do some long-range shooting only to realize you forgot your rangefinder. The 1700 is lightweight and small enough to fit into any range bag pocket or even a shirt pocket. This unit is packed with features and at $209.99 it won\u2019t break the bank either (I’ve also seen them on sale for $169.99). There is an Angle Compensating mode as well as holdover calculations for popular cartridges. The fully multi-coated glass optics provide a bright viewing experience. In the field the LRF 1700 performed well, giving accurate ranges from 18 yards to 1300 yards in my neighborhood. In the forested ground I use occasionally for target practice it also performed well. The display is black and quickly gives data on distance and angle. The eyepiece is adjustable, which is likely becoming more important to dad as he ages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Vault LRF pack (sold separately) is shown mounted to the front of the Vault chest pack (left), main compartment opens away from user (center), and comfortable straps are adjustable for cold or warm weather hunting (right). <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Bushnell Vault Chest Pack<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dad may not know it, but he wants a chest rig. For many years while coyote hunting I have been using chest rigs \u2013 and no I don\u2019t mean a plate carrier. A chest pack is a great way to keep essentials handy \u2013 rangefinders, binoculars, calls, electronic caller remote, etc. My utility test for chest rigs goes as follows: fit, comfort, stealth, storage, and cost. First, it must fit well and not flop around. Next, it has to be comfortable, or you won\u2019t use it. Third, it must be quiet in the field, or you will burn it the first time you brush against it and the noise spooks something. Storage capacity matters or else why not just use your pockets? Finally, there is cost. The Bushnell Vault<\/a> chest rig checks all the boxes, with easily adjustable straps, a comfortable cool mesh back panel, and a padded cool mesh pocket\/pad next to the chest. The fabric is quiet inside and out, and the main compartment silently opens and shuts with a magnetic hold. Small mesh pockets on the side are perfect for hand calls and other small items. Storage is more than adequate as the Vault holds up to a 12×50 set of binoculars. Finally, the Vault only costs $69.99, so it meets the cost criteria as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"2022
The Vault laser rangefinder pouch mounts left, right, or front of the Vault chest pack.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

An optional additional Vault LRF pouch<\/a> may be purchased and attached to the front or either side of the unit to hold a range finder. This pouch comes with an accordion-style elastic bungee to secure the range finder, and it uses a magnetic clasp like the Vault on the main compartment. The Vault LRF pouch is $29.99.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 5.11 Overwatch front pockets have loops\/Molle for patches or attaching more pouches (left). The Overwatch protects your laptop and can conceal other items as well (right).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

5.11 Overwatch Briefcase<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your dad has an office job he has either returned to the office or soon will be. Send him there in style with the 5.11 Overwatch Briefcase<\/a>. If he has an office job he certainly won\u2019t be doing actual overwatch duties, but at least he will have a great briefcase with a cool name. The Overwatch has a padded compartment that handles up to a 15-inch laptop. In that same pocket, you can also store a notepad. The main pocket has two zippered mesh pockets and two hook and loop pockets in addition to the main pocket. There is also a water bottle pocket in the main storage area that doubles as a place to stash your sunglasses or other glasses. On the outside are two loop\/MOLLE-covered zippered pockets for admin or other items. Opposite the MOLLE pockets is a luggage handle pass-through. I\u2019ve used the Overwatch Briefcase for a few months now and it works very well. There is also a removable padded shoulder strap and grab handle. On top of all of this, there is a set of backpack straps tucked inside the back panel. $92 in either black or kangaroo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hopefully you bought dad some good beer for Father’s Day, but what will he wear while enjoying his tasty beverage? If he\u2019s lucky enough you will get him a 99 Cans of Beer shirt<\/a> from 5.11. Made of ultralight polyester this Dad Fashion Statement is also functional. Snap closure front with dual chest pockets and pen guides, this shirt is ready to party. As of the time of this writing, the 99 Cans of Beer shirt is on sale for $39.49 and is available in Pacific (red\/white\/blue pattern) or Tundra (green pattern).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5.11 Range Ready Trainer Bag<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If dad is smart, and he is, he has been buying ammo and he is ready to hit the range. Send him there with the new Range Ready Trainer bag<\/a> from 5.11. The zippered main compartment opens wide so dad won\u2019t have to dig around to find what\u2019s in his range bag. This bag is made of 600D polyester and is fully padded all the way around. With over 3000 cubic inches of space, it will hold all that dad can carry. The included dividers may be repositioned for different load-outs. The end pocket has elastic keepers inside for AR mags or similar items as well as two small admin pockets. The front of the main compartment has pockets for six AR mags and six pistol mags. In the back, there are two large pockets for ear pro or the like. The padded shoulder strap is removable, and the front has a large loop area for patches. $145 in black or kangaroo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His topics have included bird dog training, predator hunting, defensive training, 3-gun competitions, and more. He is an avid hunter, chasing upland birds behind pointing dogs by day, and calling predators at night with thermal and night vision. A staunch 2A supporter, Steve has written about topics challenging the gun community. In addition, Steve tests and evaluates guns, scopes, thermals, night vision, and all types of hunting and tactical gear. His favorite outdoor activities are upland bird hunting, calling predators, and shooting suppressed firearms. Whether creating content about hunts or doing product reviews, Steve's goal is to take the reader as close to actual experience as possible. \u2014 Writer, photographer, videographer \u2014 all content is experiential, meaning personally tested or used on a regular basis \u2014 Advanced training \u2014 concealed carry, weapon retention, long range precision, Brazilian jiu jitsu \u2014 Competitive Shooter \u2014 reigning champion of the media division of the Crimson Trace Midnight 3-Gun Invitational \u2014 Tax Stamp Collector \u2014 possessor of over 25 NFA tax stamps and associated pieces of metal \u2014 Math geek \u2014 Bachelor of Arts in mathematics, Master of Science in mathematics \u2014 2A advocate \u2014 plain language interpreter of the Second\u00a0Amendment \u2014 Outdoor enthusiast - fishing, hunting, overlanding, kayaking, canoeing, hiking","url":"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/author\/steve-gaspar\/"}]}},"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/2A6A9460-150x129.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/164621","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/101"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=164621"}],"version-history":[{"count":20,"href":"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/164621\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":189100,"href":"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/164621\/revisions\/189100"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/164656"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=164621"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=164621"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=164621"},{"taxonomy":"featured","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/featured?post=164621"},{"taxonomy":"hunt365","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hunt365?post=164621"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
