Dan Z. for TTAG Next Post Coming Soon…▶ We’ve know personal defense trainers who will tell you that one of the best self defense tools you can carry is a good flashlight. If you’re in a dark parking lot or garage and someone begins to approach you, they teach that clicking on your light and shining it at the person approaching you can make them change their mind. A bright beam directed in the face will make almost anyone stop and shade their eyes, giving you time to assess the situation and react. That’s why a lot of people make…

Next Post Coming Soon…▶ You never know when or where you’ll need to light up the night. And not just to illuminate a potential target in a defensive situation. Life presents its challenges. You could have a flat tire on a lonely 2-lane road on your way home. You might be assembling one of those annoying IKEA cabinet units and need some extra light in an interior corner. Or maybe you dropped something that rolled under the bed and, well, it’s dark under there. Streamlight’s ProTac HL USB flashlight is notable because it will run off of three different power…

Do you shoot on public lands or at ranges that aren’t “improved”? Places where there are no shooting tables or gun racks? That can present the problem of where to put all your shootin’ irons during your day of fun in the sun. Sure, you can back up the truck or SUV and leave the guns you aren’t shooting there. But Hold Up Displays, makers of all kinds of gat-holding gear, makes a simple, well-made option that stores flat and lets you hold as many as six long guns while you’re out in the field. It’s useful at home too,…

Next Post Coming Soon…▶ As my Texas hunting experience grows, so, too, does my understanding of the value of a high quality LPVO, or low power variable optic. From earliest dawn to latest dusk, quality glass allows you to see clearly in all lighting conditions, and a wide zoom range allows for fast, accurate shots at distances from right here to way over there. Leupold’s Mark 5HD 2-10×30 scopes fit the bill for serious, reliable use on all sorts of different rifles from close to medium-long range. The Mark 5HD 2-10x comes in two different reticles, one with MOA ranging…

Next Post Coming Soon…▶ Folding knives are convenient, and what most of us carry as EDC blades, but sometimes it’s nice to have a good fixed blade around for more serious purposes. A good friend and mentor always described a folding knife as being pre-broken, in that it’s already in multiple pieces and we’re relying on the lock to hold it together during use. A fixed blade knife with a full tang is all one piece, and inherently stronger. This is especially beneficial in a knife intended for heavy camp use or self-defense. That’s one reason you don’t see too…

Jeremy S. for TTAG A collaboration between BlackPoint Tactical and Viking Tactics’ Kyle Lamb, the VTAC IWB holster is an adaptable and adjustable holster for concealed carry. Primarily designed for appendix carry, the VTAC IWB can also be changed for strong side IWB use, too. And, as you may have guessed, it does not suck. A key feature of the VTAC IWB’s design is, for lack of a better word, a “lump” of Kydex on the body side of the holster down near the muzzle. This “lump” pushes the muzzle away from your body, which in turn — and this…

Ciel Tech Long Sleeves T-Shirt with Gravite Windblock Vest Next Post Coming Soon…▶ What you wear makes a difference. More and more outdoor companies are recognizing the need for “women’s wear.” Not pink camo, but quality clothing that stands up to rigorous conditions while accenting the female shape. Beretta is clear that’s exactly what they wanted from their Ladies Training Collection and they made it happen. “The Beretta Ladies Training Collection is focused on delivering improved garment fit with modern performance fabrics aiding in durability for dynamic shooting competition and outdoor rigorous physical training. Designed with the female athlete in…

Hi, my name is Dan and I’m a knife addict. I don’t know if there’s a 12-step program for my condition, but I haven’t really hit rock bottom yet, so I’m pretty sure I can handle it. No, really…I can. Anyway, I have a lot of knives…EDC blades of all shapes, sizes and steels. But one of the knives that impresses me most is this simple, inexpensive $24 KA-BAR folder. The unassuming Dozier Precision Hunter lock back won’t be confused by any knife knut as a prestige item. It’s made in Taiwan and has an AUS-8 blade with a Zytel…

Dan Z. for TTAG We ran the announcement from GrovTec for their new Tri-Base buffer tube sling mount for AR-15 rifles back in February. It’s basically a clamp with three quick detach cups that fits on your mil spec buffer tube. The selling points here are 1) it’s fully ambidextrous, 2) it’s made in the US and, best of all, 3) it doesn’t require you to disassemble your AR-15 to install a sling mount. It’s perfect for those of us who prefer a single point sling and don’t want to mess with replacing the lower’s end plate or hassling with…
