    Kowa 77 vs Swaro ats 65

    What is the size difference between the 2? I tried searching for pictures, but can't find a good side-by-side comparison of the 2. The 663 with the 770/880 zoom eyepiece would be an instant buy for me.

    Benchmade Mini Griptilian G10 Handle

    I 100% agree with you that wear and tear is expected from an EDC tool. The issue I have with the scratches on mine is it's a brand new knife. I haven't had many chances to use it as a tool since it's only a couple of weeks old. It's cut a few cardboard boxes and been in my jean's pocket most of...

    Benchmade Mini Griptilian G10 Handle

    I'm starting to believe I got a bad handle. Benchmade CS said it's not a warranty issue since it doesn't affect the functionality. Definitely crappy news for a brand new knife.

    Benchmade Mini Griptilian G10 Handle

    Thanks for the info. I actually did the same thing with M-Pro 7 gun oil, but I didn't let it sit overnight in a ziplock bag. I'll try that step and see if the results last longer than my previous attempt. The knife has only been in/out of my jeans so far and it's a couple of weeks old, so I'm...

    Benchmade Mini Griptilian G10 Handle

    I recently purchased a mini grip with the grey/blue G10 handle as a EDC. To everybody with the same knife, does your handle scratch up/mar as easily as mine? The knife is a couple of weeks old and it's only been in/out of my jean's pocket. An email from Benchmade's CS said the G10 handles can...

    What's a good Bino Harness? That wont break the bank

    Another vote for Marsupial Gear. Very clean design. My only issue is I have the shoulder straps maxed out and wish I could adjust the harness to ride higher on my chest.

    Best hunting pants

    EB is having a 40% President's Day sale right now. What color are your Guide Pro pants? I've only seen dark smoke and saddle in the store. I'm picking up the dark smoke for sure, but I was wondering about fossil or slate green as well. Saddle seemed too bright.

    The New Exo in Fusion looks sweet!

    If Exo is concerned about Tan being too light and showing stains, I wonder why it's used on the Fusion packs in the first place? The packs still look great; I just imagined the packs being all Fusion when they were first introduced.

    Maven Rifle Scope

    Pretty excited to see the reviews on this. I'm in the market for a new scope and was bouncing back and forth between the VX-6HD or the NXS Compact. Can anybody comment on if the turrets are tactile like Nightforce or soft like Leupold? Would you compare this scope to the VX-6HD or NXS Compact...

    Browning Xbolt(280) Experience?

    To the people who have installed the M-Carbo spring, what in/lbs did you torque your action screws at? I removed the stock on my .300 WM Hell's Canyon Speed to wipe it down after it got sprayed with sea water and currently have the front and back screws torqued at 35 in/lbs. The manual doesn't...

    2018 for First Lite...30 new pieces.

    I'm looking forward to the SEAK pants. Hopefully they'll be relatively lightweight and the fit will be less tapered as with the Stormtight pants.

    2018 Exo Pack?

    Thanks for the reply! You're right, I'm used to seeing stretch fabrics become worn out and baggy over time, so it's good to read that the Exo packs feature a more resilient material. As for the Fusion pattern, has the purple tint on cordura been resolved? The Fusion pattern on current bino...

    2018 Exo Pack?

    Has anybody heard of when Exo will make an announcement? The wifey got me a gift certificate and I'm ready to place an order for a 5500 pack in Coyote Brown, but I want to see what the 2018 updates will offer. For the people with Exo packs, does the stretchy material on the front pocket get...

    2018 for First Lite...30 new pieces.

    I can understand the benefits of zip off base layers, but at the same time, Kuiu has inferior merino than FL and that's maybe the reason why FL doesn't offer it... yet. If the temperature swings that much to where you need to take off your base layer bottoms, then why wear a base layer bottom at...

    First Lite - gear you wish they would make!

    A full zip Halstead fleece with 2 zippered side pockets. A hood would be a bonus and change the camo sleeve pocket to match the fleece color. The SEAK and Cirrus could benefit from longer torso lengths as well. I think the SEAK is about an inch too short and the Cirrus is about 2 inches too...

    Marsupial Gear Bino Harness Buckle Mod

    Do the tan ladderlocks from Supply Captain match the coyote brown buckles on the harness?
