Looks Like Fun With The Nerf – inteliSCOPE For Shooters – Indiegogo

Sunday, June 16th, 2013

The inteliSCOPE is an app for Android and iOS smartphones that turns the device into a tactical optic. It features multiple self-orienting reticles, 5x digital zoom, drop compensation, recording and playback options, built-in compass, GPS positioning, shot timer, and local prevailing winds.

Additionally, the smartphone can be attached to a 1913 picatinny rail using the inteliSCOPE Tactical Adapter System. It’s made from high strength composite-reinforced polymer with a ruggedized tactile rubber finish. It detaches via a quick-release toggle, can be adjusted to portrait or landscape orientation, and allows for the user to shoot around corners with no head exposure. A Nerf rail adapter also allows the user to use the inteliSCOPE on any of the N-strike Nerf blasters.

Rugby – Rules To The Game

Monday, May 27th, 2013

I love rugby and played while I was stationed in Germany on the 3ID team in an unofficial league made up of military personnel, dependents and expats. We’d travel to other bases and play against their teams and afterwards head to a gasthaus to eat, drink and sing. At the time I weighed about a buck thirty soaking wet so I played hooker. It’s a wonderful sport that’s enjoyed all over the world. Unfortunately, many here in the US do not know the rules of rugby. Hit the jump to learn the basic rules. But I have to warn you. This might not be safe for work if you can’t see a woman in a pair of booty shorts.

T3 SurFight Trunks

Wednesday, April 24th, 2013

This is T3’s first foray into crossover products and I think they did a great job developing an off-duty board short. Boys will be boys and most enjoy a day at the beach, and the SurFight Trunks will fit right in yet hint to the wearer’s background through small details like the base color (Black or Navy) and associated stitching and camouflage pocket. There are also two pockets, left front and right rear and there are additional, less obvious features as well, like 550 cord drawstring and bartacks as found on combat clothing.

Between the para cord drawstring and waist front closure you can cinch them down. In fact, this double Velcro closure presents a smooth exterior and is often found in MMA shorts. These trunks pull double duty, hence the name; SurFight.

Haku – The New SSE Rope Bag from Arc’teryx

Monday, March 18th, 2013

The guys from Arc’teryx LEAF showed me the new Haku Rope Bag at OR Winter Market. When John Faherty demonstrated it, the Haku certainly lived up to its name, the Hawaiian word for ‘invention.’ Sure, it made for ropes, but once you see the demonstration in this video, you’re going to come up with loads of other uses, including SSE. Just lay it out, the bright yellow color offering excellent contracts from the ground, and throw everything you find onto the bag’s tarp. Then grab the four corners of the tarp, gibe it a shake and everything slides right into the bag. Brilliant! What’s more, there is a simple strap for hasty carry or you can take an extra few seconds and compress the load.
