    I am excited about these new additions to FJ and I hope these widgets can be of use to the readership.  I have signed up with a couple of affiliate programs out there that I think would be appropriate for the blog and please feel free to check them out at your leisure.
    The […]

Cool Stuff: Shot Show 2010

   One of these years, you will see Feral Jundi at a booth at Shot Show.  These things are so much fun, and filled with tons of networking possibilities and all sorts of new weapons, weapons parts and gear.  There are a few blogs out there that track shot show, but probably the best is […]

Military News: British Troops To Get First New Camouflage In 40 Years

   Congrats to the British for picking an outstanding camouflage.  Kudos to Crye Precision for making such an excellent camouflage too.  I am not sure what the reaction is of the troops, but I am sure they will welcome the new threads.  I know multicam has been getting a lot of positive reviews from some of the […]

Job Tips: Pack a Voltage Tick Tester For Deployments

   This is one that I recommend for guys working all over the world, both in security and disaster response.  A quick way to know if your shower or bathroom is hot, is to test it with a voltage tick tester.  Shoddy electrical work is not just a problem in Iraq or Afghanistan, this is […]

Gear Review: Armor and Weapons in the War-The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly

   I think these three stories do a pretty good job of discussing what’s what in the war.  In the second story, there is a article mentioned in the UPI about weight versus mobility, that you can check out as well.  My take away from all of this is that armor is too heavy–duh, and […]

Funny Stuff: A Handy, Versatile Tote at a Tremendous Value

     There’s a sale going on, so go get your ‘Xe essential tote bag’ while they last! All the cool kids have one. By the way, I am not laughing at BW/Xe, I am laughing with them.  They probably get so much traffic (pro and negative) from all over the world, that I am sure […]

Military News: Natick Camo Study and a Review By Soldier Systems Blog

    Interesting news and we will see how this goes.  I have personally thought that UCP was a terrible pattern for the areas of operation we are in right now. It works great for sage brush country though, and I highly recommend it for coyote hunting here in Boise, Idaho. It is also great for hiding on […]

Gear Review: The TAG Havoc Armor Carrier

The TAG Havoc Armor Carrier
   I just ordered a medium sized version of this rig and it just came in the mail the other day.  There was a bit of a wait, but not too bad.  (About two months) And for disclosure, I bought this and I picked this product based on my own research […]
