#Gear

5.11 Tactical, known for its purpose-built apparel, footwear, and gear, has introduced its new Mission Ready™ Dog and AROS K9 Collections. These collections are specially designed for active and working dogs, as well as their handlers, with a focus on functionality, durability, and comfort. Its great to see 5.11 finally bringing their K9 line from the European market over here to the United States. Previously I was only able to find their K9 line on their Swedish website. The TFBTV crew got a good look at all of these items at the SHOT Show this year and I have been pretty excited to get my hands on these products for the K9s in my life.

MATBOCK has introduced the Raider Line waterproof low-profile pouch system engineered to seamlessly integrate with your plate carrier. Say farewell to the hassle of waterlogged gear and the irritation of sand infiltrating your essentials. The Raider pouches create an impenetrable barrier, guaranteeing that your crucial equipment stays pristine even in the most extreme conditions.

One of the biggest annoyances for me on the range when it comes to wearing safety glasses is fog. Most lenses out there will eventually fog even in optimal conditions but on extremely hot or humid days it can be even worse with your body’s heat doing its best to fog up the inside of your lenses. Bollé Safety has just announced a solution to that problem with the introduction of their new Platinum Technology equipped safety glasses which have been able to demonstrate in tests that they are capable of resisting the appearance of fog for 15 minutes above a source of steam which is a resistance equivalent to 100 times higher than the requirements defined by industry EN166 standard.

Hearing protection on the range or when you’re out hunting is always one of your top priorities and WildEar is a company that is entirely dedicated to helping you protect your hearing. WildEar is excited to announce their new Ready-Fit SafEarz earplugs that filter out harmful high-intensity noise while still allowing you to hear things like speech, and other low-intensity noise all without having to worry about powering your hearing protection.

Despite having a majority of the country locked up for nearly two years, I still don’t think most of us are really itching to get out and be duking it out with our neighbors over flat-screen TVs or whatever newfangled nuclear-powered air fryer is going to be on sale for this year’s Black Friday. Thankfully the guys over here at TFB and TFBTV are mostly online shoppers and that’s why once again we’re proud to bring you some of the industry’s deepest discounts on some of their most highly sought-after products for 2022. While I don’t think we’ll be seeing any H&K MP7s, G36s, or General Electric M134 Miniguns on sale, I do think that with the hefty amount of new gun releases combined with a noticeable uptick in retro firearms purchasing in 2022, we’re sure to see some good deals out there. So strap on your biggest pair of post-Thanksgiving sweatpants, grab a cup of joe, sit back, and join us for the 2022 TFB Black Rifle Friday and CyberGun Monday deals!

Ferro Concepts has just dropped a brand new piece of kit for all you gear junkies out there.

The new Single Elastic AR Pouch will be released initially in all of the most popular camouflage and flat color patterns and retails for around $40 per pouch.

Welcome to TFB Prime Day Deals 2022. Every year, Amazon has a special couple of days where they, and their many retailers put on a great sale where you can get a lot of great gear for a heavily discounted price. This year we’ve already been notified by a couple of popular gun gear retailers that their own Amazon store pages will also be participating and are passing the savings on to you through Amazon. While there are tens of thousands of products that are on sale during Prime Day, here at TFB we’re constantly searching and selecting the best deals for gun-related gear and accessories on the site.

Welcome to TFB Weekly Web Deals 7. Okay, so you screwed up again and got your mom, wife, sister, or other mothers in your life something really lame from the corner store along with an overpriced hallmark card and she’s quietly but clearly giving you the stinkeye for your incompetence. Today I’ve got the perfect way for you all to make it up to her – get her gun stuff. This week we’re checking out a wide variety of guns, gear, ammunition, and more that you can pick up to make up for your absent-minded gift giving strategy, or maybe you did a great job with your mother’s day gift giving and you want to reward yourself with some discounted gear. Let’s get started with TFB Weekly Web Deals 7.

I’m sure most of you have noticed that the price of just about everything including, guns, ammunition, and gear is only getting more expensive as the year progresses. While the discussion on why that is happening can be had elsewhere, what hope do we gun owners have in updating or replacing our worn or used up gear if prices only continue to climb? One company, Grey Man Tactical is taking a stand against inflation by promising to not raise their prices and instead decided to cut prices on their products.

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves is at EOS, the European Outdoor Show. Fabio of Beretta shows James the new Beretta 2022 gear and clothing lineup, including a jacket famously worn by one of Zelensky’s bodyguards. Have you ever wanted to dress like an onion and stuff a pizza in your game bag? Then check out this ep from EOS.

TACO pouches are some of my favorite magazine retention accessories to run on either my plate carrier or gun belt. They really make re-indexing magazines a lot easier and they’re also made from high-quality materials right here in the USA. High Speed Gear has just announced that they’ve released new Double Rifle TACO pouches that are compatible with most rifle magazines. The new Double Rifle TACO Pouches come in all of the most popular flat and camouflage patterns and are available for order right now directly from High Speed Gear.

Visualizing how your gear will look and function is essential especially when you’re spending hundreds of dollars. Gadsden Dynamics has just released an updated version of their Chest Rig Builder which is a unique way for you to get a real-time look at both the appearance and the price of your chest rig while you’re shopping. The Gadsden Dynamics Chest Rig builder allows you to select everything from the camouflage pattern, magazine, and admin pouches all in a simple browser-based solution.

Sometimes the only thing that is missing from our current collection is a couple of good shooting accessories. Whether that means bipods, bags, lights, chronographs, vertical foregrips, or whatever else you feel like you need, sometimes buying a new gun isn’t always the answer. Lots of shooting accessories can actually give you an almost new experience with a gun that you have owned for years and some other accessories are just there to help when you’re out hunting or on the range. Today I’ve brought you guys a handful of shooting accessories which are all on sale plus a couple of extra items I think are appropriate for the Christmas season.

Veterans Day is right around the corner and there is no better time throughout the year for us to honor those who have been elected to or who were pressed into service for our nation. YETI, popular manufacture of outdoor gear and products has just announced that they will be supporting Folds of Honor with a Limited Edition Veterans Day Tumbler. The 30oz tumbler sales will raise money for the nonprofit which supports our men and women in the military with $5 from each sale being donated directly to Folds of Honor.

Welcome to the first episode of the TFB B-Side Podcast. The B-Side podcast is going to be a little less focused and a little more light-hearted than the TFB Behind the Gun Podcast. This week I brought on one of TFBTV’s favorite presenters, Hop.  On today’s show, Hop and I discuss what we call the Hierarchy of Gear Needs and how it applies to responsible citizens going about their daily business. We talk all about the gear and firearms that you run into out in the wild and hopefully provide a perspective to those new to the industry for what order to buy your gear in if you’re interested in becoming prepared incrementally for unforeseen events. Let us know your thoughts and experiences with this subject after you listen and we look forward to hearing from you in the next episode.
