Tactical gear and clothing
There are a lot of words that get thrown around in the firearm industry that are fairly broad. Tactical clothing these days may sound like BDUs to one person and 5.11 tactical clothing to another. Tactical gear can mean anything from a folding stock to a knife, or a $1500 rifle scope. The word “tactical” doesn’t really tell you what something is going to be used for in the field. I have some pretty dressed down AR15 rifles that to some people, just look like violent weapons and scare them, while most of us that are familiar with the accessorized M4 Carbine, will find a A2 style AR15 to be pretty bland.
The so called tactical clothing and concealed carry markets seem to be new markets and these terms get thrown around a lot but don’t really tell us much. To the trained individual, they can spot a knife in the pocket and 5.11 style pants from a mile away and loads of pockets full of tactical gear and usually that’s a dead giveaway that someone is carrying a firearm. Think about what purpose your clothing is to serve and adapt to it. There are more than a few good clothing companies that are making concealed carry friendly apparel.
When getting asked the question how many guns we own, the question should be asked “what do I not own?” After several years of dealing with the high speed, low drag weapon systems, and after watching the 2008 election results, there was huge jumps in ammo prices. I thought to myself when 5.56 ammo was hitting close to the $700 per 1000rds range, that maybe ammo was going to be worth more than gold soon. After putting a little thought into why the ammo prices were going up, I pretty much guessed that they won’t stay up that long in a bad economy, because nobody in their right mind would spend money on something that was 200-300% over inflated. I decided that if It was reloaded ammo, I wasn’t going to touch any factory ammo, and it was now time for a 22lr bolt action rifle.
Most of us alreayd know that when we buy a new gun we usually get some sort of factory gun case. These gun cases are nice for transporting the gun it is intended for and possible can hold a few magazines. I’ve got a pile of them in my storage room, but I never use them for range trips. I own a few range bags since I tend to actually use them for more than just packing up guns. After having several experiences with forgeting to bring ammo, magazines, targets or staplers, I’ve learned to pack up my stuff and leave it in a bag that always comes to the range with me.
Modern combat optics are becoming more and more advanced. Back in the day people just used the European pole or standard crosshairs for rifle scopes, but not anymore. These days combat optics may be red dots, green dots, illuminated reticles, bullet drop compensators etched in glass or Mil-dots. Combat optics like IOR scopes may have a reticle that is almost a sizing guide for range estimation where you just simply hold the target into a range estimator and then make adjustements on your target knobs or just hold over.

Whether you’re looking to protect your guns for travelling to the shooting range, on a hunting trip, or just looking to protect it from getting knocked around in your closet, Gun Guard gun cases are an option for you. Gun Guard gun cases are not going to burn a hole in your pocket either. There is a time and place for using a soft case to carry your guns around, but unless you’re really worried about your guns suriving a 5000ft drop from an airplane, there’s not reason to be spending hundreds of dollars on a hard case.
