Mean Gene Leather and Sentinel Concepts SBR Case

Mean Gene Leather and Sentinel Concepts have teamed up to create something beautiful It’s called the SBR Case (Sentinel Black Rifle Case) and it might just be the classiest way you could ever conceal an AR-15 SBR or pistol with a LAW Tactical Folding Stock Adapter.

The SBR Case is about as discreet as discreet can be simply because there is pretty much nothing else like it out there. No one would guess it is holding an SBR or AR Pistol because they have no frame of reference for any type of rifle case looking like this. In fact, it looks more like a custom pool cue case than a rifle case. Even if someone did pin it as a rifle case, they are more likely to think it contains a take down sporting rifle… or maybe a mare’s leg.

Mean Gene Leather will be offering these on a special order basis. They can be ordered in custom length to accommodate your specific rifle. Due to the custom nature of the SBR Case, it will require a lead time.

Zulu Bravo Kydex Custom Training Knives

Very few custom and production knife makers offer training versions of the knives they sell. This leaves people who seek edged weapon training stuck with generic training knives that don’t match the actual knives they carry… unless they happen to know about Zulu Bravo Kydex.

Zulu Bravo Kydex can make a training version of any knife even if it isn’t necessarily a self-defense oriented design. They recently made the above trainers for an every day carry classic, the Benchmade 943. If you look closely, you can see that they replicated the shape and even added texture to replicate the jimping found on the live knife.

Wild Hedgehog Tactical Ouch Pouch

I’ve been carrying an Ouch Pouch from Wild Hedgehog Tactical for about a year. It spends most of its time in the hydration pack that I use for hiking and biking. I’ve had to raid it several times and I’ve really come to like this simple, compact first aid kit.

The Ouch Pouch isn’t that different from something you can build yourself… except you are going to have to pay up for large quantities of the components only to strip them down for use in a compact first aid kit. I like the quality of the components used in the Ouch Pouch. There are brands like Medline, 3M, and Curad. I also like the versatility of the selected components. Items like Steri Strips can be used a number of ways and can close some pretty nasty wounds in a pinch.

Components:

  • 1 Pair Nitrile Gloves
  • 1″x3″ Bandages (5)
  • 2″x4″ Bandages (2)
  • Gauze Pad
  • Aspirin Pack
  • Antihistamine Pack
  • Ibuprofen Pack
  • 3M Medical Tape
  • 2x Bacitraicin Antibiotic Gel Packs
  • Pack of 3M Steri Strips
  • Purell Wipe
  • 2x Iodine Wipes
  • ​2x Alcohol Wipes

I’ve added a couple doses of anti-diarrhea tablets to mine because nothing will ruin a day on the trail or at the range quite some intestinal distress. Other than that, this is a capable, basic, and fairly complete kit at a decent price.
