Morgan Rogue   05.16.22 For everyday use, having a flashlight is essential. I’ve been in some random situations where a flashlight was necessary, even more so I’ve been caught in the dark and have needed an emergency flashlight to get to my vehicle, campsite, etc. Every day carry flashlights have really come a long way. The skinnier

Luke Cuenco   05.09.22 Weaver is proud to announce the addition of their new Multi-Slot Scope bases for the Savage Axis series of rifles. When it comes to budget hunting rifles, few names are as popular as The Savage Axis’ and few names can rival that of Weaver’s when it comes to quality American-made optics accessories. These

Nicolas Lenze   05.11.22 Heavy bags are a pain. What stinks, even more, is the way they’re carried. Most of the time, we’re forced to decide between two options. We can carry a large bag by the handle as it bumps into our legs and everything else in the building. The other option is an uncomfortable shoulder

Nicolas Lenze   05.12.22 If you carry a small-framed 1911 in .45 ACP, capacity is a concern. The recent trend toward 9mm 1911 carry guns is, in part, a way to increase capacity. The smaller diameter of the 9x19mm round increases capacity and the all-steel frame can make a significant dent in felt recoil. Now available in

Morgan Rogue   05.12.22 I love a pen that also functions as a rescue device. I’ve actually been looking for a new tactical pen that can double as a rescue device, something that’s always on my person and can be deployed easily should I need to use it in an emergency to break a window or…even for

Nicolas Lenze   05.11.22 I know a few people who like to carry 1911s. In fact, there have been so many of them throughout the last 111 years that the platform continues to thrive. Some things are changing, however. One major trend is 1911 pistols trading in the hard thump of the .45 ACP for the explosive

Morgan Rogue   05.09.22 I’m a bit obsessed with backpacks. I’m always looking for a new backpack. Why? I don’t know. I’m insane? There are always so many cool new backpacks to try and I want to try them all! When it comes to 5.11, I’ve always been a fan, but I was never into their backpacks

Luke Cuenco   05.09.22 Aftermarket Bolt Knobs are nothing new and as far back as I can remember, hunters and marksmen alike have gone to great lengths to modify their rifle’s standard bolt knob in order to get a better fit or better performance out of them and their rifle. However, most of these modifications usually require

Nicolas Lenze   05.06.22 Anyone who enjoys outdoor activities that require carrying heavy gear knows that you want the weight on your hips. A sturdy belt is the key to this, as it will be in charge of carrying most of the weight. This is also true for EDC gear like defensive handguns and spare magazines. Tubular

Morgan Rogue   05.06.22 I’m always looking for a durable boot because we do a lot of hiking, walking, and general movement at the range so I’m honestly not interested in the cheaper shoes because they explode within a week of using them. I will gladly spend more money on a boot that is going to not

Morgan Rogue   05.06.22 I can remember first hearing about the Grayl water purification bottles and how excited I was for this new system on the market. When it comes to water purification, I’m always looking for the absolute best options and I hoard them like I’m hiding Halloween candy from my kids. Having kids, I’m always

Luke Cuenco   05.05.22 Joining the expanding list of electronic shooting products offered by ATN Corp are the new X-Sound electronic earmuffs. These new shooting earmuffs sport a 22 dB noise reduction rating, Bluetooth features for listening to music or making phone calls, and a long battery life from its two AAA batteries. This should bring yet

Nicolas Lenze   05.03.22 Between the lockdowns of the past and living through the winter months of a snowy state, I’ve found a lot of reasons to skip the gym. With all of the new life that spring brings us, it’s time to bring some new life to my muscles. If you’re like me, some new workout

Rusty S.   05.03.22 In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves interviews Ricardo, Project Manager and Engineer for Beretta, about the new BRX-1. The BRX-1 is a new straight-pull rifle designed to incredibly high standards in Italy by Beretta. The BRX-1 has been in production in Europe since late 2021, but because demand has far outstripped the

Morgan Rogue   05.02.22 I used to be one of those people that said “leggings aren’t pants” but that was only because leggings used to really suck. I mean, every single legging on the market had zero pockets and they were just uncomfortable. These days? More and more companies are realizing that women want pockets, even on

Luke Cuenco   04.28.22 The hunting season has probably been pretty rough on your blade. Everything from trimming small limbs off that is in your way to peeling open that blister-packed optic you just bought for your turkey gun will take a toll on your favorite blade. If you think it’s time to pick up a new
