I only run my surefire light when I have my light bearing holster, such as the Safariland lvl 3. - if I ever do choose to run a light, I run a handheld stream light flashlight separately- and it’s about 150 lumens. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/53b4bc06-05cf-4e23-aa94-c0c0ec6cec6e/Photoroom_20260613_193758.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR My rifle, this is as basic as it gets- if you guys didn’t know, I do not own multiple guns. I am used to only having one rifle and one pistol if you ask me why? It’s because I have more time training with the ones that I only have. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/42ac65e9-9489-4b13-b079-4367fbd19fdd/Photoroom_20260613_221044.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR The memorial bracelet-I never take this thing off. Day in and day out everywhere I go. It’s on my wrist. This is a remembrance that life is fragile. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/2af9c325-78ce-4852-b416-3824f1c294d7/Photoroom_20260614_233846.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR The hockey tape, I put this on everything or anything. This bad boy can absorb sweat. The goon tape is over hyped. Which is exactly why I’m not gatekeeping where I get this from. Click the picture and it will take you straight to the eagles product page - https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/419621fc-fae1-4419-955f-6118c5500cda/Photoroom_20260613_180737.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR Goruck kitbag. I don’t know how long I had this. From the gym, range - grocery carrying…and to excursions… this kit bag has never failed me. I believe they have one in different capacities. Click the picture it will take you to their website - https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/acd9172c-d68a-4b99-b22f-c9cc64f3a9f7/Photoroom_20260613_193431.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR The edc… this changes from time to time depending on where I’m going and what I am doing. But I never leave the house without medical equipment. The pistol and the medical equipment are inseparable for me. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/205fe829-6a1d-44a6-bdc3-0dce9e2f20d3/Photoroom_20260613_194524.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR Weapons maintenance- I don’t care if I shoot 100 rounds or 1,000 rounds—my pistol gets cleaned after every range session. It’s a habit I learned in the military and one I’ll probably never break. Cleaning isn’t just maintenance; it’s an opportunity to inspect, lubricate, and ensure everything is ready for the next trip to the range. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/10ea9d4a-31a9-49dc-9f83-b25693c35822/Photoroom_20260613_220425.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR Two belts- these are from kore essentials… one belt is 1.75 inch width and the other is one 1.5 inches width. Once for EDC once for…whatever- I adjust accordingly to the sizes of my holster loops. I mainly use the 1.5 inch for EDC.- and then the 1.75 inch I use for the range. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/b2e9ed4f-0679-41b6-8c36-153da0b7f5bd/Photoroom_20260613_215816.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR Oakley’s - I never leave the house without my stunna shades - I have a disease in both of my eyes from deployment. You have to protect your eyes from the elements, especially from that bright ass sun. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/a783b296-fb4f-4b63-8a36-4ee343165cef/Photoroom_20260613_180619.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR Danner resurgent boots. Feels like you’re walking on a cloud.. black boots will always absorb heat- especially in the summer season. I’d recommend a tan or a coyote color boot so that way it doesn’t absorb too much sunlight and cook your feet like an oven. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/f8ee4ec2-763c-419f-8710-47fe5e2befe1/Photoroom_20260613_180359.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR A “religious” pendant or paperweight that will definitely adjust someone’s attitude https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/cd994d14-de03-4b1c-8b66-76b5680b52e3/Photoroom_20260613_180305.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR This was given to me by my Master Sergeant on my birthday in Afghanistan. And now a Sergeant Major- in charge of a whole battalion in Korea. I will never forget MSG conover. If you’re seeing this, please retire https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/9fb3aabf-8624-4b27-ab15-6b27a45f6468/Photoroom_20260613_180154.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR A personal gift from my good friend Joshua- although I don’t smoke anymore or smoke two packs of cigarettes like a chimney, I think every man needs a lighter- https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/1c2fd62a-7dc0-4416-82bf-90ec4be7f8be/Photoroom_20260613_181420.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR This one doesn’t really need an introduction. You and me know that this is probably the most premium light for pistols. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/cc7ac4da-ec1c-4b2d-bacc-99f453fa802d/Photoroom_20260613_180537.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR Arktis smock in ranger green- my wife’s gift on one of my birthdays. imported from Europe. This is one of the probably the slept gear of all time. This baby has so many pockets that you fit anything and everything you wanted on one mission if you choose to. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/c7e2b872-d219-447f-90d6-b49e3d6c6f7b/Photoroom_20260613_193146.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR Ahh.. the RMR. This one is the type 2. Before red dots actually became a thing people started putting these on their pistols so Trijicon said why not.. this is probably my favorite optic system just because how tough it is. Just like the surefire light it’s been battle tested and proven. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/365e525b-ea6a-4c4c-b260-5c9ee0e18e23/Photoroom_20260613_180659.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR Who doesn’t like headlamps… if you see me out there in the jungles or forests… you’ll see one around my neck or on my head. Don’t forget to carry spare batteries. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/d369b588-00df-4f58-99d1-5560c6be8639/Photoroom_20260613_221553.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR If you don’t want your thumbs hurting while reloading your magazines at the range-and if you’re in a hurry -I suggest you get one of these. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/dacd0c1f-de48-4f5d-b66e-a6f7f335143a/Photoroom_20260614_160906.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR The Safariland 6360RDS for my Glock 19 and X300 has been one of the most reliable pieces of gear I own. The retention is solid, the draw is consistent, and it keeps the pistol secure during movement and training. It’s not the lightest setup, but it’s a setup I trust every time https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/827c2e7b-2a48-4aea-aa5d-43c8e183eea6/Photoroom_20260613_221914.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR Range ammo storage- this little pelican case has been with me for a while. Holds roughly around 600 rounds! Enough for an all day range event https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/86e7cec2-b0e9-45cd-86f7-e50b667f188b/Photoroom_20260614_161248.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR Recently picked up the PACT Club Timer III, and it’s been a great addition to my training. The random delay and par-time functions force me to react instead of anticipate the beep. Whether I’m working draws, reloads, or target transitions, it keeps me honest and gives me measurable feedback. One of the best training tools I’ve added this year. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/1355c98a-7d4d-49a7-91ad-46eff2821d7f/Photoroom_20260614_161316.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR Over the years, I’ve used everything from cheap hearing protection to high-end Peltors. Most of the time, I’ll run my Walker’s electronic ear pro by itself or foam earplugs by themselves, depending on what I’m doing. Deliberate or dynamic sometimes i often wear both. I’ve had hearing protection shift or come loose during training, and it doesn’t take much exposure to loud gunfire to remind you why protecting your hearing matters. The foam plugs underneath provide an extra layer of protection if my primary ear pro gets bumped or moves out of place. You only get one set of ears—take care of them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/62ce644a-176c-4f57-8de9-cc5300c68ad3/Photoroom_20260614_161027.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR I picked up this Leatherman Surge from the PX at Fort Benning in 2017 while I was a trainee, and I still carry it today. Out of all the gear I’ve owned, this has probably solved more real-world problems than anything else. From quick repairs to everyday tasks, a good multitool is one of the most useful pieces of equipment you can own. Almost a decade later, it’s still going strong. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/043c116a-d13c-4c55-9832-94079edc7cb1/Photoroom_20260614_161000.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR I’ve carried everything from gas station knives to premium folders over the years, but I keep coming back to my Benchmade Anonimus. Simple, reliable, and always ready to work. No moving parts, no fuss—just a solid fixed blade that has earned its place in my gear. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/9be9822f-0bf6-4862-ab41-bdc356f9db30/DD55B264-7D11-41AC-B525-4411C94E150E.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR I’ve tried a lot of holsters and carry positions over the years, but I keep coming back to the Tenicor VELO5 for appendix carry. It conceals well, stays comfortable throughout the day, and gives me a consistent draw when I need it. Like any setup, it takes time and practice to get comfortable with, but this one has earned a permanent spot in my everyday carry rotation. At the end of the day, the best carry setup is the one you’ll actually wear and train with. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/f30d5228-43f2-4115-923b-a9de167f1f6b/Photoroom_20260614_160931.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR I carry both the Snake Staff Systems 1” and 1.5” EDC tourniquets because they’re compact and easy to carry every day. But I’ll never forget the Gen 7 tourniquet. It’s a proven design that has earned its reputation through years of real-world use on the battlefield and beyond. The best tourniquet is the one you actually carry—and know how to use. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/e097f41b-8318-4e37-8a44-0729e9460b22/Photoroom_20260614_163421.jpeg PERSONAL GEAR Loophole Systems is a Texas-based company that makes some seriously solid holsters. The fit and retention are spot on, and the Kydex is thicker than your mom’s Thanksgiving gravy. All jokes aside, the craftsmanship is outstanding. Everything feels well thought out, durable, and built to last. Easily one of the nicest holsters I’ve owned. https://www.deniedenvironments.com/life-lessons daily 0.75 2026-06-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/7a22258f-c09e-4b6d-b19a-e02bb0ea4b1c/2EEE0411-1808-4F87-A96E-B55B7A15C58D.png https://www.deniedenvironments.com/store daily 0.75 2026-06-14 https://www.deniedenvironments.com/store/p/death-gripper-phone-mount monthly 0.5 2026-06-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/f7e8c7a9-c7ae-4a9c-ba11-df46ee2031d0/DB33847E-79BA-45F6-A845-30A5D69C4AFF.jpeg RANGE GEAR - DEATH GRIPPER PHONE MOUNT - DB33847E-79BA-45F6-A845-30A5D69C4AFF.jpeg https://www.deniedenvironments.com/merchandise daily 0.75 2026-06-14 https://www.deniedenvironments.com/merchandise/p/the-echo-vase-9ledr monthly 0.5 2026-06-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a2cc34c5507464277bbed24/3ac1f264-56a6-4ec2-900a-9eb339282b4b/278D6AD8-E02C-4F7E-A7F5-C9082769ED8A.png SHIRTS - WINGED REAPER SHIRT - 278D6AD8-E02C-4F7E-A7F5-C9082769ED8A.png
