I'm the Tactical Gear Guy.

I've served in the Armed Forces for 12 years with experience in weapons handling, explosives, survival training, and more.

Over the years I've had to trust the gear I've used, and I know the importance of having gear that works.

The views expressed on this site are the personal views of myself and do not necessarily represent the views of the Department of National Defence.

This blog is viewer-supported, meaning that purchases made using some of the links I provide earn me a small commission, but at no extra cost to you. This is a company’s way of saying thanks for promoting their gear.
