Disclaimer: There’s been a lot of political nonsense regarding Covid coming from both sides. This is not that. I’ve been working in healthcare for five years, and I’ve been experiencing how Covid has affected us all for the past two. This is what I personally experienced, with no political commentary or opinions. Just a simpleContinue reading “How Covid-19 Destroyed Healthcare (It’s Not What You Think)”

An Evaluation of Solo Prepping vs Group Preparedness, Part Two
Into the woods we go. In part one of this series, we’ve acknowledged that it’s not feasible to survive for extended durations in a populated area through the home or bugout location. But what about out in the wild? I’ve heard it said many times that if you ask someone about their preparedness plan, itContinue reading “An Evaluation of Solo Prepping vs Group Preparedness, Part Two”
An Evaluation of Solo Prepping vs Group Preparedness, Part One
A thought that has occurred to me quite suddenly in the past five minutes, and one I must now flesh out on paper (or screen), is that of solo preparedness. More importantly, why it doesn’t work for the long term. The world of preparedness is full of hoarders of various soft, hard, and edible goods,Continue reading “An Evaluation of Solo Prepping vs Group Preparedness, Part One”
The World Sucks.
I’ve been gone for quite a bit, and I’m frankly exhausted. The world pretty well sucks right now, so I’ve been trying to hold things together for a bit. There’s a lot of interesting things going on in the world though. Wars everywhere. Rumors about other wars. Food shortages, inflation, and all the things thatContinue reading “The World Sucks.”
5.11 Tactical Norris Sneakers (In Multicam)
For those of you that don’t know me, it’s important for you to know from the start that I have found immense use out of 5.11 Tactical Gear. My pants are 5.11, I own three pairs of 5.11 boots, I have 5.11 bags, and a 5.11 plate carrier. I have nothing against 5.11 Tactical. ButContinue reading “5.11 Tactical Norris Sneakers (In Multicam)”
Modlite OKW + Modbutton Lite Weapon Mounted Light System
Modlite is a relatively new arrival to the weapon mounted light scene, and they brought some excellent offerings to the table. With competition names like Surefire and Streamlight in the mix, they had a lot to prove. They delivered, in exceptional fashion, while defying industry standards for what makes a “good light”, and instead wentContinue reading “Modlite OKW + Modbutton Lite Weapon Mounted Light System”
Squared Away Ep. 11: Building Out My Body Armor
Lets talk body armor, specifically, the poor mans body armor. An essential part of the prepared mans setup, body armor is what I would designate as LSE, or Life Saving Equipment, but that extra protection comes at a cost, with the plates alone weighing in between 100-500$. So when it’s time to pull the triggerContinue reading “Squared Away Ep. 11: Building Out My Body Armor”
Grey Man Tactical RMP (Rigid Molle Panel)
With the rise of clamshell opening backpacks like the 5.11 AMP72, and the fall of the awful backpacks with dozens of poorly formatted and laid out nylon compartments, some members of the preparedness and tactical community were looking for a new way to organize gear. And without the limitations of predetermined pockets, we had everythingContinue reading “Grey Man Tactical RMP (Rigid Molle Panel)”
Pathfinder Survival 8′ Tarp
One of the essential elements of survival is shelter. One of the essential elements of shelter is speed. If you don’t have shelter when you need it, in some scenarios, you are dead. This is where essential items like the tent or tarp come in. They don’t stand as a permanent shelter in most cases,Continue reading “Pathfinder Survival 8′ Tarp”
Squared Away: Ep. 10 “The Long Silence”
Hey guys, and welcome back to the Squared Away Series. It’s been a hot minute since I’ve been active here, and for that I must apologize. But hey, I’m back, and guess what? It’s time for reviews. Like, a lot of reviews. So here’s the plan: I’ve got reviews of some 5.11 tactical footwear, aContinue reading “Squared Away: Ep. 10 “The Long Silence””
