BLACKHAWK is a big brand and as such, they’re constantly revising products, introducing new ones and phasing out the old. With such an array of gear I’m often guilty of skipping over them when looking for products to talk about on the blog. One category that makes it easy to stop and stare is the...
Practical Utility Shoulder Hold

Practical Utility Shoulder Hold

No, the PUSH is not a martial arts or combat tactic it’s the name of yet another popular 5.11 Tactical Gear Bag. It’s been around so long the poor thing has been pushed to the bottom of that category on our site so it’s about time we mentioned it here on the blog. Following the...
Stumped

Stumped

When I can’t think of something to write about I have to browse until I’m inspired. Sometimes it takes a while. If you’re looking to buy something from LAPG you usually have at least half a clue along with an idea of where to start looking. This might change however if you’re shopping for someone...
Remember Condor?

Remember Condor?

Condor Outdoor AKA Condor Tactical. Whatever you call it there seems to be a love it or hate it attitude about the brand. Some just plain love to hate it. I also have a feeling there have been quite a few flip floppers out there. The latest round of Condor Apparel has been well received with...
5.11 Tactical Accessories

5.11 Tactical Accessories

This particular blog entry is simply being named after the matching section on our website.  Many a brand on our website has an Accessories section to organize the gear that just didn’t quite fit into another category. As such, we have a 5.11 Tactical Accessories section with a variety of items ranging from Watch Caps...
Stock up on Steel

Stock up on Steel

Over the weekend I got my hands on a Special Projects catalog which is a division of the Cold Steel brand. There’s nothing super secret inside and you may have seen one before but it reminded me yet again just how awesome Cold Steel knives are. My response to the flipping through the catalog is...
Unleash the Fury

Unleash the Fury

The other day I was assisting someone with a minor repair in a dark closet. It was dark because the work was electrical related. As such this individual was using one of his handheld flashlights to illuminate the area he was working on. Things were going ok but we soon decided a second flashlight would make sense...
Nice can

Nice can

We put a can in your can so you can can while you can. No wait, that’s not it and it wasn’t us. What had happened was they put a stove in your can. Now that’s clever. You need at least one of these if you use it for nothing else but boiling water. When...
A little Aim for your game

A little Aim for your game

So yesterday we hit you with a preview of an upcoming weapon light designed specifically for handguns. Today we’ll stay in the vein of weapon accessories but this time more specifically AR15 rifle accessories. Initially, this particular item was a bit elusive and still it’s not something we stock a lot of. I click on it...
A Nebo Preview

A Nebo Preview

A preview typically means you’re looking at something you can’t have just yet. I do my best to avoid teasers but if I’m not mistaken, our Facebook fans were given a quick hint about this upcoming product so I figured we’d share the love. The NEBO Tools brand established themselves with the attractive and budget...
Budget Combos

Budget Combos

In case you missed it, today we’re talking Kershaw Knives. This time around the combos aren’t a pair or grouping of items but rather combo describes the edges on these knives. Both of the knives we’ll mention feature a Combo Edge blade (partially serrated). The images we’re using are of the Kershaw RJ II 1980ST...
Oh noes, a Bear!

Oh noes, a Bear!

Fear not, it’s just Bear Grylls and he’s here to help. We all know Gerber Tools and Gerber Knives are legit but there has been some Haterade passed around when it comes to deciding how legit Bear Grylls is. We can probably simplify the debate  pretty quick by admitting that most of us probably wouldn’t try half...
