Long range rifles may seem to be capable of delivering accurate shoots at every possible distance, but they have a limit: the transonic region. In the previous articles about static stability and dynamic stability, we have seen what it takes to properly stabilize a rifle bullet to keep it accurate to the farthest distance possible. However, at one […]

Like many in the military, when I first was presented with ammo on a stripper clip I merely pulled the ammo off and loaded it individually. It was only later on that a kind soul hazed me and showed me the light. While fairly self-explanatory many do not know how to utilize the stripper clips […]

When it comes to winning a fight, there are plenty of predictable challenges, but the one people tend to focus on the most is learning a combative skill set.  Martial arts gyms around the world have created an industry that revolves around the idea that the person with the darkest colored belt will inevitably emerge […]

Hurricane Maria, the most powerful storm to hit Puerto Rico in more than 80 years, struck the island just as life was beginning to return to normal in the aftermath of Hurricane Irma.  Now, the entire island is without power, and law enforcement has been struggling to maintain order.

Travis Haley, Owner of Haley Strategic, is also a former Force Recon Marine. In this video he discusses the go-bag and some basic contents of the go-bag he uses for outdoor adventures. The go bag he shows us in this video is not a high speed tactical setup. It is more of an everyday hiking with the family bag. In […]

First off let’s real quick cover the intent of the go-bag. The go-bag is meant to sustain you in the interim until you can either make it home, make it to your bug out location or evacuate to a secondary location due to a natural disaster. The contents of your go-bag will vary depending on […]

I had the privilege of training with Kyle Defoor about a year ago in his two day pistol course. The skills and tactics that he teaches are second to none. With his vast knowledge of tactics, firearms and combatives you’ll go away having learned something that you can put to use within your own skillset and gear […]

It’s a simple topic but one that can always be updated as the times change. Today we take a moment to discuss different types of Go-bags / 3 day assault packs and how I would pack one (generally). You can purchase the Cannae Assault Pack HERE. This article is courtesy of The Loadout Room. 

No one likes to hear about accidental or negligent discharges (depending on your school of thought, those two are one in the same), particularly when they result in someone’s death. The case of a 24-year-old Detroit woman who was killed when she hugged an off-duty policeman at a party—the embrace discharging his IWB holstered .40 Smith & […]

While many of America’s war fighters come to terms with the concept of dying in a firefight well before they actually set boots on the ground, there are no shortages of other risks to the lives of those we send into harm’s way in defense of our nation.  Recent headlines have made it frighteningly clear […]
