In order to keep our weapons in good condition for a long time, proper maintenance is essential. It is known that we sometimes use our carbines and shotguns in difficult weather conditions, but in fact the acid reaction of the residue after burning gunpowder is the greatest threat to steel elements. In this guide, we will try to briefly tell you how and how to take care of your weapons.

What do we associate Switzerland with? Chocolate, cheese, gold and of course Victorinox. The iconic company has been connected with the culture and image of the country for well over a hundred years and it is unlikely that it will end. Victorinox pocket knives are not only one of the most popular export products, but also an allegory of features associated with Switzerland - resourcefulness and reliability.

When writing a blog about choosing a tactical belt, we immediately had in mind that all the features listed there will be worth referring to specific examples. The belt structure is not perfectly visible at first glance, and describing the Cobra buckle structure in two sentences is definitely insufficient. Therefore, on the basis of the previous post, we have prepared five belts that will well represent the features we mentioned earlier.

In the history of knives produced today, there will certainly be a few icons, which with their uniqueness or well-thought-out design are remembered by users. Models such as Benchmade Osborne, Spyderco Military or ESEE Izula have gained market recognition, as evidenced not only by their extremely high sales, but also a specific envelope of fans and a wide market of aftermarket accessories. Few knife models, however, can boast of such a long history and an imprint on the historical background, such as the KA-BAR USMC Fighting / Utility Knife.

Each of us was once in possession of a belt, so we assume that its primary function - to keep our pants in the right place - does not need to be discussed. However, while searching for a belt, tactical, we have to ask ourselves what it is supposed to serve us for. Some of us will carry a light, service pistol and handcuffs on it, while others will carry a one-and-a-half-kilo Shadow with a set of magazines. Let's review the solutions present on the market together in search of the most suitable belt for us.

Last week's blog was rather general, today we'll go into the details - again about telescopic batons. You have already learned a bit about the solutions used in construction, and now we will present you how they look in practice, what we can expect in what configurations and at what price. The table at the bottom will allow you to quickly compare the parameters, however, it is worth remembering that some of the models come in many versions, which we will mention in the description of each of them.

We can hear about multi layer clothing in practically every article devoted to the methodology of dressing in the field for colder days. Without a doubt, it is the most efficient method in terms of thermal comfort and allows us to adapt to sudden changes. The blog about jackets appeared some time ago, so today we will talk about the insulation layers - fleeces.

When choosing everyday pants, we are rather guided by aesthetics and quality of workmanship, however, we require something more from technical clothing. It is supposed to make our task easier, protect us from the influence of the environment and survive slightly more serious damage than those to which our everyday clothes are subjected. We have chosen from our offer some of the most characteristic models, which we will briefly describe for you.

Choosing and buying good equipment is one thing, but to maintain the parameters of the product for a long time, it is necessary to take proper and careful care of it. Unfortunately, outdoor, technical, thermo-active clothing, etc. is a bit more technologically advanced than everyday cotton clothes and requires more attention during washing. Moreover, in order to maintain the waterproof properties of some clothes, they must also be properly impregnated. In this guide we will tell you how and what you can take care of your equipment.

A compact backpack is an item that everyone needs - it's rather difficult to argue with. Whether for everyday use or for holidays, weekend trips, etc., a small backpack - say up to 30 L - will be an invaluable support. A bag or briefcase in formal cases or simply less sporty clothes will probably be more stylistically appropriate. But if we can afford the most comfortable solutions, we will probably choose a backpack - its carrying system is simply much better suited to carrying the weight.

In one of the blogs, we have already mentioned what features to pay attention to when choosing tactical shoes. However, we thought that we would introduce you to some specific models so that you can have some point of reference. We have selected a few pairs, representing specific price shelves, so you will also be able to see more or less what to expect from models in specific amounts.

On the heads of special unit operators and sports shooters we have long seen classic baseball caps. Despite their versatility, usefulness and aesthetics, they do not find their way into the elements of the official uniform in any army, being displaced by patrol boats - probably due to production costs. However, what fits the head of an Marine Corps soldier or a South American dictator will not necessarily be suitable for a sports shooter. Therefore, we invite you to a short description of more interesting solutions found in baseball caps based on the offer of SpecShop.pl

Optoelectronic sights are nowadays a certain standard of equipment, both for professional soldiers and sports shooters (in classes that allow their use). Iron sights, of course, are extremely reliable, but have their limitations. So why not make it easier for yourself to by working with a bit more advanced equipment? We hope that this article of the SpecShop.pl shooting shop will dispel your doubts.

Ear and eye protectors should be the basic equipment of every shooter. Unlike hearing protectors, which operation we feel all the time, eye protection may seem definitely less important to some. The ''what can happen to me ''approach is unfortunately still sometimes visible, and the influx of cheap, non-standardized counterparts of protective glasses encourages those seeking savings to risk their own health.

The choice of pistol grip and stock is one of the first things a new owner improves in his dream rifle. But with all parts available on the market, choosing the best AR-15 pistol grip can be a challenge. MAGPUL owes its brand name to the AR-15 and AK platform accessory series. It has become known as the creator of perfectly thought-out, technically, functionally and in terms of design, practical weapons elements.

As we have recently mentioned on the blog ''Which air rifle for the beginner?'' There are so many types of airguns (types of propulsion, calibers, methods of tensioning) that a person unfamiliar with the subject may feel a bit confused. Therefore, we will try to explain a bit what it shoots and what will be necessary for it to shoot without problems.

With such an large spectrum of airgun models - power sources, stocks, calibers and manufacturers - it is initially difficult to assess which model will be consistent with our needs and expectations. As a rule, starting our adventure with pneumatic shooting, we are looking for models with a strictly recreational purpose. Beginners, however, often pay attention to features that do not fully determine the value of an airgun. Of course, the personal taste of the shooter is very important, as you know, we largely buy with our eyes, and the satisfaction from buying will not be full if the air gun is not also visually attractive. That is why in this blog we will try to tell you what to pay attention to when buying your first rifle.

Hammock is the most used bed in South America and the Caribbean. It came to Europe thanks to Christopher Columbus, who came across this unusual invention during his trips. Why did a hammock in those areas become such a popular form of bed? We can distinguish two issues here. First of all, simplicity - a hammock is a light bed that can be unfolded and folded quickly and easily. All you need to do is find two trees or piles to which we attach our tourist bed.

The Polish government's directive demands covering the nose and mouth comes into force on Thursday, March 16, 2020. Because the warrant does not require the use of approved filters, we can use virtually any appropriately large piece of material for the mask design. Various companies began to produce their own reusable masks, which seems to be right with current demand. We, however, encourage you to use already owned materials so that after the wave of the virus we are not flooded with wave of unnecessary waste.

Recent days have prompted us to radically change our habits and the overall of everyday life. Inconsistent guidelines on protective procedures make it difficult to determine what specific behaviors will be best for our health. Let's analyze the WHO and Ministry of Health recommendations and, above all, do not give in to misinformation spread by low-class media or, worse, by panicking people in our environment.
