Mil-Force Tactical Elite Molle Vest

OK so I'm into paintball as you would have guessed from my last post. But I'm not a speedballer, I much rather stay in the woods and play some good old woodsball. Its fun, and a huge rush for me. Well the vest I had reviewed in my earlier post is nice and a good starter vest but this one...This one takes the cake!

I can't say weather this vest was really meant to be used in country or for Airsoft warriors. But I can tell you that this vest is friggin awesome! Its modeled after a C.I.R.A.S. style vest. I guess the real one is like 500 bucks for the vest alone and can kick Chuck Norris' ass just by looking at him. This one is much cheaper but gives you all the features that you would want, sans the Chuck Norris part. It has more Molle webbing than you can shake a stick at, and just as many M4 mag pouches as well. Not to mention a map pouch and a workable sling, oh and I almost forgot on the back there is a hydration sleeve! Thats a huge added bonus if you drink a lot (of water)!

I know your wondering about the build quality aren't you? You will be impressed, its not pooh but its not the best. I'm a huge believer in 'you get what you pay for'. Well with this vest its good and durable, stitching is good and strong but with a few un-trimmed ends here and there. Mine came in Multicam pattern but is not the real pattern. Seeing it with my Save Phace mask that IS Multicam you see a huge color variation. Not sure if this will drive me nut or if I will like it. Only time will tell.

For the price from the vendor it cant be beat. I mean 80 bucks for this??? The same vest from evike.com is $130! So yeah kind of a no-brainer here... So if your in the market for a good vest with loads of extra goodies and at a sub-hundred dollar price point I would tell you to take a look at Mil-Force. You might want to spend that hard earned money on this instead of something else from China.

new gear!!!

As soon as I get some time I'll review my new gear. And I can't wait to use it too!

Paintball time!!!!!

Ok so I have been into paintball since I was a young teen. But never got to play for one reason or another. Well I'm making the effort to go play again. Which is 2 part. 1 Because I still love the thrill of playing and 2, I need something to help keep my fat @$$ in shape. Which leads me to my additions to my gear.

First off, lets start with my vest. I picked up a lower end vest from GXG. The one I got is their Tactical Vest. Not a bad item for under 40 bucks. Loads of pockets, and almost limitless adjustment. Yeah there are a lot more options out there but they also cost way more. Less then 40 bucks, SOLD! Maybe down the line I will upgrade, but that will be WAY down the line...

Next up, another item from GXG, their Tactical pack. Notice I'm going with a tactical theme? Must be some want to be hard core.... Naw :) But back to the pack. I wanted something nicer and more easy to tote around all my gear in and not be a suite case. Yes I had a suite case for all my gear, I know, sad. But this pack is nice, with loads of room for just about everything I bring along. I have my marker (sweet Tippmann A5 BTW)in the back where you can hide your marker. In side the pack I still have enough room to store my mask, vest and camo. And the outter pockets I have my paint pods and tanks... Like I said, loads of room. And again it was not a bank breaker. This was 50 bucks. So for less then 100 bucks you have 2 items that are rather nice but were not too bad on my wallet.

So yeah there are nicer and better options out there for a gear bag and for a vest, but seriously, those cost a lot more...

SkullCandy Titan in-ear bods.

So I have had these in-ear buds, for a better part of a year now. Well not these black ones, but rather I have a copper colored pair. And I have to say they are sweet, not awesome though. The pair I purchased off Amazon.com were a season or two old but still rock it! See the pair I have used a foam like ear bud that is much like those neon orange hearing protection plugs that OHSA makes some people (or wives with annoying husbands) wear.

You know, I really do like these ear buds, but have to say that I do have a few issues, first when you wear them you need to make sure you route the cable in such a way that it wont get caught on something, the other well lets say the cable gets a little sticky from moisture (sweat you sickos!)... Those are really my only to complaints. The sound is nice and rich. Bass is deep and the highs are well, high. And with these foam tips on them you really can not hear anything around you, even when you have the sound turned down. Which is a good and bad thing... I mean what more can I say? They have good sound, I didn't pay much, thats not to say you wont, and they are good for just about all uses when you want to tune out the world. If you can buy them for 20ish bucks then get them, if not don't. I'm sorry I'm a little on the cheap side.

Now back to rocking out with Pandora or Slacker as my musical guide...

Pocket Tool X Brewzer

So first off I want to say sorry to Pocket Tool X. And here is why, this post should not have taken this long to get up. But life has a way of being, well life. So Sorry guys!

Wow, I feel better now, ON WITH THE POST.


So me being the gadget geek that I am, Uber Gadget Geek that is, I have a soft spot for gadgets of all shapes and sizes. And multi-tools, well they are slowly turning into a collectors thing for me. And I blame my mates over on multitool.org. Which leads me to the
Brewzer, and the guys at Pocket Tool X. Well I got on their Facebook Page and entered a small give away they were holding. Well holy spandex batman I was one of the lucky few to get a Brewzer! They have a few other products so they are worth a look.

So what is this little bite of 154CM Stainless Steel goodness? A bottle opener, a very awesome bottle opener. Yes everyone under the sun has a bottle opener on their key chain, so what makes this one any different? Well it is more then just a novelty item or a single tasker, no this is perfect for the budding college student that is really thirsty. Will it open my favorite bottle beverage? Yep, and it will open up those drinks that are hiding in an aluminum can as well. But those cans must hide in fear as the Brewzer also has the ability to poke open a hole in the bottom for those times when you really (and I mean really) need to drink something fast. But with that being said, you can honestly use the multi-purpose tip for opening packages (like those you get from really awesome vendors like Pocket Tool X) to even using the edge to pry something open/off. You know, like that bottle cap that is implanted on your head after you 'fell asleep at the party'.


So at the end of the day would I say buy it? YES! But that's just me, and well I could be wrong. But hey its 20 bucks, it is small (really small) and it opens bottles BETTER than my Atwood Atwrench. Yes I said better, sorry Peter. Oh and while you are shopping on Pocket Tool X's site, make sure you take a look at the Piranha, it was their first showing of a tool and I think it was done rather well. Oh and Pocket Tool X, if you are so inclined I'd love to 'review' more of your products... I'm just sayin :)
