Gorilla Range Bag from S.O.Tech

May 6th, 2013

New from S.O.Tech is the Gorilla Range Bag System. I got a sneak peek at this thing at SHOT Show and I really like it. For one thing, it’s a sling bag design making it easier to tote around. The GRB is a 3 part system which is comprised of a range bag, 2 pistol cases, and a cleaning case. Each item was designed from the ground up to function seamlessly with one another.

The main bag itself has pockets that are designed to carry:
-various sized paper targets
-staple gun
-elastic loops for markers
-ammo boxes
-2 pistol cases (included)
-cleaning case (included)
-extra big front pocket for extra pairs of hearing protection (friends or family range days)
-extra big front pocket for extra pairs of eye protection (friends or family range days)
-first aid kit

Additionally, there are pistol bags as well as a cleaning kit bag.

“Freedom Isn’t Free” Cooler to Benefit the Navy SEAL Foundation

May 6th, 2013

Our friends at MATBOCK have come up with a really cool fundraising idea. They have a buddy who makes custom coolers and approached him about doing a 100% Made in USA cooler with a military theme in order to raise funds for the Navy SEAL Foundation.

A lot of work went into this build. Here you can see the up close, the illustrations burned into the wood.

As an added bonus, the winner will be able to decide what he wants added to the lid.

They’ve also added a few embellishments to keep with the theme.

This is going to look great in my backyard so go out there and win it as a donation for the SSD home office!

Here’s how it works. Visit the auction on eBay.

How to enter
1) Make your bid and check back to ensure you are the highest bidder
2) Give us a Like on Facebook – Visit MATBOCK on Facebook

Details
– The winner will have the opportunity to pick from three other drawings to complete the top of the cooler or they can submit their own idea to be placed on the top. (this is why we have a longer handling time)
– The cooler will arrive before memorial day weekend
– The auction will last 7 days and ends on 13 May.
– 100% of your bid will be donated to the Navy SEAL Foundation
– MATBOCK will pay for UPS ground shipping

The theme for this cooler is “Freedom isn’t free” because so often we forget the daily sacrifices that people all around the world make to ensure our freedom. Usually only during key events or holidays do people (sadly including us) think about these sacrifices. With this hand built 100% USA made cooler on your porch, patio or even in your garage, you will remember the daily sacrifice, not to mention 100% of your donation will go towards the Navy SEAL Foundation to help the families of the men who have made the ultimate sacrifice. Retail for this cooler is over $900, so lets start bidding!

Education For Death – WWII Propaganda

May 5th, 2013

Time was, people recognized that there were threats to our way of life. They created propaganda to educate and persuade the American people. These days, we are bombarded on a daily basis with propaganda. Lies become truths if they are told enough times. Personally, I pine for simpler times when it was ok to call the enemy evil.

I’ve always wanted to be a propagandist, but I picked the wrong line of work (insert snarky comment here). One day, the enemy will go too far and we’ll see them painted in a light like this.

I’m sure this post will get some of you all worked up. I say, bring it on. The nazis were evil and today, evil still lurks in this world. Some of it has a lot in common with those nazis my grandparents defeated.

Thanks RYP for the find!

A New Badge For USAF Security Forces

May 5th, 2013

Apparently, there’s an initiative by Air Force ‘Top Cop’ Brig Gen Allen Jameson to scrap the traditional Security Forces shield and adopt a more civilian-looking version akin to what is seen above on the right. His office on the Air Staff, the Director of Security Forces, is currently soliciting feedback from the field. While I don’t have a dog in this fight, the whole move away from Security Police to Security Forces 15 years ago was to focus more on air base defense and less on handing out parking tickets. To me, that new badge screams Barney Fife. Air Force Security Forces fulfill a unique role and their badge should reflect it, just as it has all of these years.

Here are the choices.

What do you think?
