Gear is the most important when deployed
Soldiers who are deployed say that it is important to gear yourself with mission specific gear and only carry what is needed...
They say when deployed for the first time, you may not know exactly what your assignment will be until you get there so get most of your gear when you get into the country.
This is great advice for soldiers deploying to Afghanistan and other countries in the world and even though everything you may want or need is often available at most bases, it wouldn't be a bad idea to get a few items in advance.
One piece of gear that always seems to make a soldier’s job more effective is a multi-tool.
The "Gerber Compact Multi-Plier 400" is a great choice for any mission and does just about everything.
Get the Gerber Compact Mulit-Plier 400 multi-tool and other tactical gear at Patriot Outfitters today!

A Patriot Outfitters Review - Remington 700P vs Watermelon
We had a great time shooting this review of the Remington Sniper 700P vs watermelon using the RAM .308 AMAX Ammo.
It was no suprise that the .308 round from the Remington 700P would make a big mess. The "hydrostatic shock" from the high velocity projectile developed pressures from the moment of impact and left very few fragments for us to show and tell about.
... also, the Indiana Jones style header graphic used on the shoot page and on this spread was fun to design.
If you want to get involved in some of the action... just click hear and you can vote on what we shoot next...
Take a look at the video below to see the aftermath!

Professional Series! Laser Phazer - Lasers Rule!
Ok, the Laser Phazer isn't a real Lethal Weapon but it is a prototype. And it happens to be April 1st today and so why not? :)
The "Personnel Halting and Stimulation Response rifle" (PHASR) is a non-lethal laser dazzler developed by the U.S. Department of Defense. This dazzler was designed to temporarily disorient and blind a target.
I have to say that even though this rifle is not lethal it sure looks tough.
Have a great day.

Leader of the Pack
I was working from home last night and heard footsteps behind me.
I turned to see who it was and found my 4 year old son standing next to me.
He was wearing my BlackHawk Desert Ops boots and his Leader of the Pack t-shirt that my wife got him a few days ago.
Of course, I couldn't help but get my camera and take this photo.
(I think the camo shorts go great with the boots :)

30 Rounds, 60 Rounds, 100 Rounds
The workhorse magazine for the M4/M16/AR15 rifles has been the 30-round magazine for several decades. The 30-round (and of course the original 20-round) aluminum magazines have produced by the millions, and are relied upon by our soldiers in Iraq, Afghanistan and several other wars and conflicts through much of recent history.
The standard load-out of 30 round magazines makes the soldier a formidable force when facing the enemy. What if you doubled, or even tripled (+10 rounds) the capacity of that magazine? SureFire has hit a homerun, and the buzz surrounding these 60-round and 100-round magazines is astounding.
SureFire has announced that the magazines are scheduled to ship in April 2011. Pre-order your 60-round and 100-round mags today, from Patriot Outfitters.com

APEL Approved Tactical Eyewear
Tactical eyewear is mandatory and must be on the Authorized Protective Eyewear List (APEL). Oakley Ballistic M-Frames and WileyX Sunglasses/Goggles are both military-approved and protect your eyes from dust, debris and projectiles.
Wednesday, March 16, 2011
Basic Tactical Gear
Troops in Iraq, Afghanistan and other combat areas are required to use basic tactical gear each time they deploy. In addition to the required gear such as the full uniform, a ballistic helmet and body armor - there’s a lot more to a complete set of tactical gear than military-issue basics.
Some tactical gear is based on personal preference – but it still has to meet the minimum military standards.

BlackHawk Tactical Packs
Today's modern day warriors and police not only have a great load of knowledge and skill to carry, they also have an enormous amount of gear they have to haul. Everything from flash bangs to laptops is needed to be carried by military and Law Enforcement professionals in today's conflicts.
Although the weight of mission specific gear is not easily reduced, the comfort and stability of how it rides can be improved. BlackHawk tactical packs are leading the way with reducing the stress of equipment on a soldiers and police officers body. Having a good well made pack can mean all the difference on the way your body feels after a day of marching or patrolling.
BlackHawk's line of tactical packs are some of the most comfortable and most durable packs on the market today. BlackHawk tactical packs orchestrate some of the most advanced materials in the world such as 1000 denier nylon, IVS back molding, YKK zippers, military rated straps and buckles.
BlackHawk's attention to detail is superb; every seam is triple stitched with military rated thread. BlackHawk was founded on the quest to make a military pack that would never fail and it has succeeded in doing so.
BlackHawk offers an array of different sized tactical packs ranging from small to large. You should try to pick a pack that fits your needs and what you usually carry on patrol or while on a combat tour.
The BlackHawk Patrol Pack is a great larger sized pack which will accommodate enough gear for several days. It is a top loader and includes several outer pouches and several interior pouches to organize everything from ammunition clips to canteens. The shoulder straps are contoured and are covered with non slip Hawktex material. It includes a removable padded waist belt and extra BTS pouch webbing for attaching more pouches or gear. The side pouches have slots that allow you to carry long items on the side of your pack. The patrol pack is hydration bladder compatible and includes closed cell foam back padding. All in all the BlackHawk Patrol pack is a great choice for an operator who has a large amount of gear to carry or has a multi day mission. The patrol pack comes in black, olive drab, coyote tan, and ACU.
The BlackHawk strike Cyclone hydration pack is a great moderate sized hydration equipped tactical pack which contains 1900 cubic inches of space. The entire outer body of the Titan pack is covered with molle webbing for attaching all of your extra gear and Molle pouches. It has two main compartments for storing all of your equipment. It also has an internal pouch for a radio and 3 antenna ports with flaps on the pack. The shoulder and waist straps are padded and the back panel is ventilated to keep you cool. This pack is great for tactical engagements that need you to have large amounts of equipment but you don't want it all hanging from your plate carrier vest. The Cyclone pack comes in black, coyote tan, olive drab, foliage green and ACU.
The BlackHawk 3-day assault backpack is one of the most popular packs for the military and Law Enforcement community today. It is low profile durable and very comfortable and can carry a wide array of different pieces of gear and is hydration system compatible. Three main compartments make it easy to keep gear separated, the shoulder straps and waist belt are padded and offer great support. The webbing on the bottom can be used to attach a sleep system in case you go on a multiple day patrol. This pack is a long lasting and hard working piece of equipment and is renowned by units around the world. The 3-day assault pack comes in ACU, black, coyote tan, and olive drab.

NEW BLACKHAWK! Desert Ops Boots Review by Patriot Outfitters
I posted a boot review on YouTube today. Check it out.
The intro is a bit long but the video is in HD, so you can really get a good look at the boot.
I have a pair of these boots and love them. There is still snow on the ground here in Kansas so whenever I go out I put them on. (even if I happen to be wearing sport pant :)
Usually I wear my cross-trainers everywhere I go - just because I am running around most of the day, but I will take my Nike’s off anytime just to keep my feet dry…
I seem to tip-toe around the snow and slush with my cross-trainers but don’t worry about anything when I have my BlackHawk Desert Ops Boots on.
Hope you enjoy the video.

BlackHawk Desert Ops Boot Review
These boots were designed for the military wearer BY military guys that have been-there and done-that.
The Desert Ops Boot features an oil-resistant Vibram outsole that, in addition to being really flexible, also provides excellent traction is all kinds of nasty terrain.
The pattern on the sole has big, open lugs which are great for getting traction when climbing and making sure mud doesn’t build up in the tread of your boot.
BlackHawk decided to use custom molded Ortholite insoles – which I have to tell you make a world of difference on your feet. Those things really help with foot fatigue.
Running the length of the boot is a steel shank to provide extra support, which also helps fight foot fatigue.
The upper is made of a tough-as-nails nylon that is lightweight and breathable. The toe and heal pads are made out of scuff and water resistant suede.
And inside the Desert Ops Boot is the Dri-Lex lining that wicks away sweat and water, which is great for keeping your boot dry and more importantly keeping your foot dry.
The fully gusseted tongue keeps debris from getting inside your boot, and a Nilon loop on the back helps you pull the boots on.
So, I’ve got to say that overall, not only is the BlackHawk Desert Ops Boot a great looking boot, it is very comfortable and built to take punishment.
Thanks for reading...

Oakley Ballistic M-Frame 2.0 Hybrid
Oakley began with an “O”
Although the Oakley name can be attributed to Jim Jannard’s English Setter, it was Oakley’s first pair of goggles released in 1980 named the O-Frame that began Oakley on a path to being the undisputed leader in high performance eyewear that it is today.
Oakley is an American company based in Orange County, California. Founded in 1975, Oakley now has more than 600 patents and leading products including premium sunglasses, goggles, prescription eyewear, apparel, footwear and accessories.
Prepared for Impact
Oakley eyewear is considered to be the best protective eyewear on the market, or as Oakley would say - "the best on the planet."
All Oakley sunglasses exceed Industrial Standards for impact protection. ANSI Z87.1 is the current standard for measuring safety in eyewear. ANSI impact resistance tests are designed to analyze protection on eyewear against possible high-mass impact and the high-velocity impact.
The metal spike test (more than a pound of weight) dropped from over four feet and the high-velocity quarter-inch steel shot test (traveling at 102 mph). In both tests the objects deflected off the lenses and no fragments of the lense or frame parts expelled during impact. These tests demonstrate the durability and safety of Oakley lenses.
No distortion, no blur, no shifting of objects
No kidding…Oakley uses a process called infusion molding which produces one comprehensive, single-layered lens. This process is done without diminishing clarity and unlike some competitors who use glue and various layers of film, Oakley High Definition Optics® (HDO®) gives you the clearest, sharpest image like no one else.
The benefit of Oakley's High Definition Optics® is being able to see the danger and then avoiding it. The lenses are made of pure Plutonite, a proprietary material that offers the highest level of optical clarity available in eyewear today.
To improve depth perception and color recognition Oakley has engineered a full spectrum of lens colors. The lenses are interchangeable, provide 100% UV filtering and help you match your optics to your environment.
Polar"Eye"zed
Everyone's eyes need protection from blinding, harmful ultraviolet light and some of the harshest light our eyes encounter on a daily basis is light that bounces off the surfaces of cars, buildings, snow, water and pavement.
Oakley Polarized lenses offer unbeatable clarity and precise filtering removing glare caused by these environments.
Soldiers Perspective
Oakley maintains US standard issue, which provides the US military and law enforcement eye protection.
The Oakley Ballistic M-Frame Glasses are APEL-approved and very popular amongst the US combat troops. Soldiers who wear them as primary eyewear find them to be lightweight, comfortable and notice that they do not slip while running

Deployment Survival Tips
Using all your protective gear, tactical eyewear, gloves and the right boots to keep yourself safe are the basics - but what can you do to help a long deployment go by as quickly as possible?
Learn for Free
The military pays for your education as long as you're in - as long as you can access an Internet connection a couple of times a week, you can work toward a college degree and fight off boredom when you're not busy running missions, training or maintaining your tactical equipment.
Alleviate Stress
Deployment is stressful, whether you feel like it is or not. Many deployed troops turn to the gym, team sports and spending time with friends to help relieve the daily stresses of deployments.
Make Time for Friends
All work and no play isn't good for anybody. Even if your FOB, COB or camp doesn't have a fully-equipped MWR or entertainment facilities, make time to hang out with friends and get away from the constant work mentality.
Communication
You're away from your family and friends back home, and you may not have the ability to communicate with them as much as you'd like. If it helps you, make a video journal and communicate with your friends and family as if you're speaking to them.
Break up the Monotony
There are hundreds of websites packed with volunteers begging to send care packages and friendly notes to deployed troops. The people who participate in those programs are on your side and they want to help ease your deployment - so let them. You and your family can visit Soldiers' Angels, Love Boxes for Troops and many other organizations online.
Interact with your Troops
If you're an NCO with subordinates, your troops will appreciate any time you spend with them. While you can't fraternize, you can organize team activities and help them study for promotion boards, maintain or upgrade their tactical gear or just sit down and talk. Your time and effort will work wonders for morale and increase teamwork throughout the deployment.
Ask for Help
If you're having a difficult time dealing with the stresses of deployment, please don't hesitate to reach out to a friend, a supervisor or a military chaplain. Chaplains are experts at confidentiality, and many are disappointed that more troops don't take advantage of their availability.
Don't Get Discouraged
Unfortunately, the media sometimes focuses on the downside of combat operations, and that can wear on our deployed troops. Don't forget that there are millions of Americans who support you during your deployment; we all know you're heroes doing the right thing over there.
Patriot Outfitters salutes you and your families for the sacrifices you're making for our freedom - and we'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for being a true Patriot.

Get your Boots on... and get Boots that fit!
Be sure to choose a tactical boot that fits your feet well. The initial investment in the purchase of quality footwear is always well worth it.
For the best comfort it's important to determine the fit under the arch without any wrinkles.
The ball of foot should rest on the widest part of the sole with no tightness or fullness of the leather and there should be atleast 1/2 inch between the end of the longest toe and the end of the boot.
Regularly replace your worn or damp socks to achieve the best comfort. You can keep your feet dry with a water resistant tactical boot and by using foot powder when necessary.
Replace your tactical boots as often as needed and wear insoles or pads in your tactical boots for more support.
