Folks good evening ! I have a good question for everyone, my girl and I are looking at hiking the Caminno de Satiago in Spain which roughly 450 miles long. I am going off my planning factor of a 30 liter internal frame pack with my Ribzwear gear as well. Question is this, what pack you guys see usin...

Good day, I will put my two cents out there for what its worth. The GoreTex Parka is a good piece of gear, but it sucks in a good rainstorm. However, in saying this I've never been lucky enough to have a new one issued to me. I'm active duty Marine Corps and found them to always start to leak around...

Rock 6, Hey brother, I'm going with the Ribz so here goes! Once I get it, I'll post what I'm carrying and how it fits. Thanks for the push on talking me into it. I agree about the 100oz water so I'm looking into another size now. Never done I guess is the case on the gear search! Thanks to all for y...

Does the HPG Recon have the ability to attach a hydration device to it? If so, this will answer my call to buy one!

Awesome write up on it as well!

Dahrkstorm, Your right about White Beach and this beach is only second to the Okuma beach. I spend time at White Beach often as its fun for the little one to play with her friends there! :D Thanks for your thoughts. Gunsup, Hey brother, I don't think I explained correctly. I carry the 100oz bladder ...

Okay folks, Good day and hope all had a great Christmas Day and Santa got you want you wanted. Also hope everyone is gearing up for New Years Day! :clap: I'm trying to figure out what's the best bang for my buck. The story goes like this: I need a system which works for day hikes around the island o...

I can personally say I love Oakley brand gear. I have used both their sunglasses and also have a Panel Pack I've used now for roughly three years. The glasses hold up great and the pack after one deployment and countless exercises is still pretty much perfect,"wish I would have picked up years earli...

I personally rock a Leatherman multi-tool a spyderco and a sweet awesome blade made by James Helm! I have this one on my gun and its better than the issued K-bar. This one stays in my seabag locked up, its okay but not worth the weight it brings IMHO. Each to his own I guess.

Hey folks!

Thanks for you the great advice on this! I really think I will pull the trigger on the Goal Zero after this next trip. I do have a Brunton Freedom, maybe I can find a battery charger which runs on this device as well.

Thanks again for they help!

Hey all, Good day, I have a question? Does anyone have, or found a good solar powered charger for batteries? I am trying to find one to charge AA/AAA and also CR123 batteries. I enjoy the AAA's for my GPS and my AAs for my cameras and my CR123 for my flashlights. I know most folks try to standardize...

TacAir: thanks for the heads up. I am going to check up on that, however I am picking this one up via Ebay. I should be okay with the Japanese Feq's here. I have been reading up on it and also talking to my Comm guys at my unit about freq's. KJ4VOV: thanks for the input on this one! Southernguy: tha...

I am new to the communication section and trying to figure out if the Yaesu Ft-60 is a good Newbie radio to start out with? :oops: Currently I am stationed in Japan with the Marine Corps and learning what I can about HAM radio. I am getting ready to head stateside on some leave and will get my HAM l...

I agree with northernxposure, I have the Foretrex 301 and love it. This piece of gear was properly one of the best purchases I have made in a long time. I have used mine both in country and also on hikes back home. Very easy and clean to work.

Thanks all ! I am really looking forward to teaching. You are right about see one, do one, teach one! I am on the chopping block for next weekend to do my first class....

Graphic Wave: No the class was not hard, but I already had a working knowledge of First Aid/CPR. I was a Paramedic years ago but let my lisc expire when I joined the Marine Corps. The final exam was not hard and really easy to follow.

For what its' worth, I would recommend for you to pick up a small multi-tool. Nothing more than a three inch blade on it. Japan is very picky about blades. The radio is a good idea, but also a some type of solar charger. They are far and few between here. I don't know your friend, but I can almost b...

I did it, I broke down and cleared my schedule and finished my American Red Cross First Aid/CPR Instructors course. :awesome: It was a fun course and really not that bad. I was just surprised at how much others do not use this course. I am currently stationed on Okinawa, and we only have roughly eig...

Add me please

I had some leave built up and went back to the states in Dec and wanted to find a good pair of suspenders for my gun belt. My last set was old and falling apart, four deployments and countless shoots! I found a great set at Wal-Mart! for only $8, they are a tan set with hooks not clips. They fit my ...

:D I just wanted to say publicly THANK YOU to Storm Crow for a set of beautiful blades. One Marine has his in hand and the other will have his in hand by weeks end. The second guy is getting ready to punch out to the sandbox without me :gonk: I get to make the trip in Aug or Sept I will show photos ...

Strow Crow: I know three Marines who are waiting like kids the night before Christmas. :D You make some great stuff, and we are so lucky to get our hands on a product you have created ! One of my partners in crime just got back this weekend for three weeks of leave before he heads out to the sand bo...

I really enjoyed this post ! First off I am going to use this post as a reference point for some people who have been asking me questions on my carry. I believe we have found several consents here. 1. Youtube ! Most who do not understand the ideas behind the different types of carry, which they will...

All I can say is this man makes some of the most beautiful working knives I have ever seen. Another GREAT JOB Storm Crow

Badasp 118 enjoy your new work of art ! Lucky GUY....

Well not that bad. It was funny, would say watch once.
