Tactical gear without any pretense, politics, or corporate money. Not your guy. Never sponsored.

How y'all sound saying stuff like "competition shooting will get you killed in the streets" and "your SGLI is void if you wear any non issued gear"

Got this welded ALICE frame from .ginoza in weeb camo, because it was either this or Reddit Green when I went in to the shop.

Not much different from my TT MALICE frame, except for the fact that the top bar of the frame has welded strap guides to prevent the straps from moving laterally. I haven't hiked enough with it to know whether or not I like that.

Instagram operators don't want you to know, but this is the ideal shooting posture.

Testing out a piece of Okinawan-made gear from .ginoza at the quarterly rifle competition. I'm not doing well due to my rifle being genuinely defective, but I'm having fun.

I'll share my thoughts after it's done.

All things considered, when someone starts saying that they're the only ones telling the truth and everyone else is lying as a defense against criticism, it has the same vibe as someone using the "bi***es be trippin" defense when they get accused of being a creep.

This is the Orient M-Force. It answers the unasked question of "What if a G-Shock was a mechanical watch?" It's one of those things that's so odd looking that it's beautiful, and it makes me love the murdered-out look. It's less accurate than a G-Shock, even if you get it regulated, but my god, is it cooler looking.

I'm away from a lot of my gear, but I still find time to practice product photography on whatever is around me. I recently purchased a circular polarizer for my camera, which helps cut reflections and glare off of objects, and increase clarity in bright scenes. In this case it helped get the glare off the crystal of the watch.

Last November, Blue Alpha did a cheeky run of their Battle Belt Lite in desert MARPAT as a gag for the Marine Corps Birthday, which was something that I had suggested to them months prior. They provided me with this belt with matching pouches as a nod for suggesting that.

Unfortunately, this iteration wasn't up to the same standards as the mainline product, experiencing significant fraying on nearly every edge of the belt and pouches after fairly light use, since I've only shot a handful of ranges with it. The fraying is unsightly, but it doesn't really affect the function of the belt.

HOWEVER, it should be noted that my friends who purchased Battle Belt Lites in less crayon-addled colors such as Coyote Brown, Multicam, Ranger Green, and M81 have had none of these issues with their belts fraying.

I spoke to Blue Alpha and they said that the material used for the desert digital laminate is different from the laminate that they use on their standard colors, and doesn't fuse on the edges during laser cutting as well. They offered to provide me a replacement with better materials immediately, provided that I send them this one so that they can see what went wrong.

All this to say that maybe going for hypebeast novelty colors can lead to issues with materials and durability, especially in the first run.

One of the things I insist on with any sort of pouch is that it has some means for drainage for this exact reason. The f***y pack in question is the Helikon-Tex bandicoot, which is otherwise one of the best f***y packs I've seen.

I'm still trying new things, even if those new things are swapping my worn-through Inov8 trail runners for a new pair of shoes because I decided to date someone whose idea of a nice Saturday morning is "up at 6 to go up this big ass mountain"

Anyway, all joking aside, these are really nice, if you don't mind the weight. They're especially nice since I'm getting over a foot injury that really begs for foot support.

Dudes be like "I'm in the jungle, might as well make viper hoods" and then sell them. This is my buddy's creation, just him in his barracks

"Thanks to your video on the emdom universal, this abomination exists"

Yeah I guess it is universal, huh? Now go run with that and see how comfortable or secure it is.

I really thought we left these in the early 2010s with Chris Costa videos and single point slings

There is no way to make a chest mounted Go Pro look good.

Finished with the intramural pistol match, and I definitely ran afoul of some diabolical stage plans, but it was very educational, especially since this was my first time on the M18. I'm looking forward to the next one for sure.
