    Kifaru Lumbar Pack

    I picked up a Tailgunner 1 from the last run they did. It has better organization than my Gen1 Scout. The Scout will carry more weight better and will also acomadate a 2 liter bladder where the TG will not. Both are great for bushwacking. I liked the looks of the harness on the Hellcat. Not...

    MSR Core tent stakes

    I just saw these the other day MSR(R) Core™ Tent Stakes. I currently use 9" galvenized spikes when the ground is frozen and not enough snow for SSTs for my 8man. Anybody have any time with these in frozen ground? Thanks

    KIFARU TUT PYRAMID - How bad ass is it?

    I would like to see a side by side of the Sawtooth and the TUT. I am not seeing how the TUT has more usable room,maybe useable is in the eye of the beholder. I've only seen one Sawtooth in person and a couple of the 4 mans and thought the Sawtooth was a better setup. But I suspect I may be...

    Lightweight axe/hatchet?

    one of the big advantages we had in the Gulf War 1991 was GPS. it didn't become fully operational until 1995. I was on submarines in the 80s and 90s we only had rudimentary gps in the 90s and nothing in the 80s. The Tomahawks shot during the Gulf War were all non GPS weapons.

    Lightweight axe/hatchet?

    FWIW I messed up the exact wording from memory"In the Regiment we took axework and cutting so seriously that we had a rule: no cutting in the 2 hours before last light.
