Luke Cuenco   03.29.22 Suppressors are great tools and safety devices for all shooters – including hunters. Hearing damage is not just incurred from sudden loud noises but stacks up over time with repeated or constant exposure to louder than normal noises. This means that everyone from humble rimfire varmint hunters all the way up to big

I’m back at the bushcraft camp! This time I’m focusing on improving my ‘A’ frame shelter. I’m using a tarp to make it more waterproof and I also made it larger to store logs and have more space etc. I finally finished the 4th wall of the camp! Took me ages but it’s done now.

Luke Cuenco   03.30.22 Long camping trips that go outside of your own property pose a significant risk of moisture exposure the longer they last. While a lot of your guns, gear, and ammunition are probably rated to be exposed to moisture, you don’t ever want to leave your stuff soaking wet for long lest it damages

Derrek Sigler   03.24.22 One of the most important and essential pieces of equipment you need for fishing is a good fishing reel. The depth of fishing reels across the various types of angling adventures is broader than you’d probably imagine, so how do you pick the best fishing reel for you? It takes a blend of

Morgan Rogue   03.25.22 I can’t believe I’m about to write a review about a compost toilet. But honestly, I think they’re truly underrated, whether for everyday living, RV vacations, or for emergencies; compost toilets are the way to go. When we were thinking of going off-grid and living full time in an RV, my husband brought

Morgan Rogue   03.24.22 When I first saw the comfort concealment belt, I was skeptical. How could this skinny-looking thing really keep my firearm secure and concealed? It didn’t compute.  When you are looking for a good concealed carry setup one of the biggest things to keep in mind is retention. Will this setup have enough retention

Morgan Rogue   03.22.22 About 5 years ago I received a Solo Stove Lite as a gift. I wasn’t really sold on the whole Solo Stove idea at the time. I had built a rocket stove which seemed like the same concept and I felt content with that. However, when I used the Solo Stove Lite for

We continue to build a log house in the woods using hand tools. We finish the thatch on the roof of the bushcraft saxon house. Using our hands and a piece of flat wood, we blend the thatching of the roof to make it better for rain to run off. I then climb the wood

Luke Cuenco   03.22.22 Rimfire pistols are somewhat of an enigma and often are the butt of many jokes when it comes to things like reliability or ergonomics. Outside of a few rimfire clones of centerfire pistols, no one has really made the effort to release a polymer gripped rimfire pistol that has been designed from the

Morgan Rogue   03.21.22 The hobo stove is a simple stove made out of tin cans. The name tends to upset people but it got its name from hobos using these tin cans during the great depression.

Join us for a cabin vs hammock solo overnight camp. We do a double overnighter, Dad stays in his tiny cabin, and I sleep in a hammock alone under the stars. We go head to head and compare the cabin against the hammock. We both cook up a feast. Dad cooks on his woodstove in

Luke Cuenco   03.18.22 They might be a little old school but Fixed Power riflescopes still offer the modern hunter a lot of great benefits over their more up-to-date and feature-rich variable power riflescopes. For one, fixed power riflescopes are often more durable while still being much lighter than variable magnification scopes. As a second and arguably
