Today marks our 10th Anniversary of daily coverage for the tactical industry.
For 10 years, I’ve been eating elephants. Some days it’s a baby elephant and some days it’s a bull. Regardless, I’ve learned to go at it one bite at a time, writing posts day in and day out for 10 years now. In fact, I only missed publishing one day in the last decade. It was about a month in, and I was at a family reunion at a park where there was no internet available. Since then, I’ve made arrangements to publish no matter where I am.
It’s been tough, but rewarding. I’ve had opportunities of a lifetime, and missed things I shouldn’t have. I’ll keep at it as long as you keep reading.
Congratulations mate! A massive achievement!
Thanks, Admin. Absolutely no better site on the net for relevant tactical information and new products, even for us non-mil folks.
Congrats Eric!

Totally agree with AGL Bob – this site is so completely unique in a world wide web of mil-industry and gear bloggers, it’s beyond comparison. Whoa… Simply cannot believe it’s been ten years!!! Eric, I visit this site at least once or twice a day and consider it to be my number one ‘go-to’ site for any and all mil-industry and/or gear-related news. Hugely appreciate all the work you’ve put into this site, as such; it’s been a real pleasure watching this site evolve into the entity that it has become. Thanks Eric, really looking forward to the next ten years. Cheers and beers to you, Sir!!

Congratulation Eric. SSD has been a daily read for me since almost day one. Keep it up.
Been a loyal reader since I discovered SSD in 2009 while looking for live SHOT coverage. Ever since that day, SSD has been one of the first websites I check every morning. It was great to finally meet you at warrior west in 2014, Eric! Looking forward to another 10 years!
Thanks for all you do Eric!
Congratulations and thank you so much for an awesome resource!

I’d check the site all the time back in 2008 (and still do) as my #1 go-to for industry news and for high quality articles.
Excited to see what is in store for SSD in the future.
Great work Eric!

Here’s to ten more year!. You keep us informed on things we need to know, things we should know and things that are just amazing to know. Keep up the good work!
Thank you very much for doing this. This is my favorite place to go for information. Any chance you could get weather and traffic and we would not have to go anywhere else.
Thanks again.
