I really wish I would have known about the topic of this particular episode or I would have emailed you guys screenshots of a complete accident that happened on our land and I just so happen to have had two tourniquets that were bought from you guys in our side by side when it happened. The ambulance showed up and and the EMT's were highly surprised at the fact that we #1 were smart enough to have tourniquets on site, (which i low key took offense to) #2 that we knew how to use them..(also took offense to).. but the MAIN MATTER, #3 that we had QUALITY TOURNIQUETS... And I can promise you right now it probably saved his fkn life! I won't go too far into the accident as to what happened, but trust me it was something that could have happened to ANYBODY, that's why they call them ACCIDENTS! It was not because of unproper use of a firearm or some idiot playing army man in the backyard! It was a pure accident. But my point still stands, the tourniquets that we had came in kits that were bought from TACTICON.. AND THEY WORKED... IMAGINE THAT!!!! btw THIS IS A 100% TRUE STORY AND HAVE PICTURES TO BACK IT UP... Not because everybody pulled their phones out like some idiots do immediately for some reason, we had GoPros running on our side by sides .. SHOOTING HOGS is all I'll leave it at!! But the accident was documented and so were the precautions we took before the ambulance got there. 💪✌️🚫🧢
@@TacticonArmament it was a scary situation for sure, but it all worked out thankfully!! I can get some GoPro clips and email them to you guys if you needed me to.. and this happened A FEW MONTHS AGO.. so there's no way for anything to be "staged".. plus I doubt anybody would take a 556 to the leg just to prove a HATER wrong about gear being "cheap"..😂.. But I and MANY MANY others appreciate you guys making QUALITY AFFORDABLE GEAR for the average guys!! 💪✌️
@@bamadondon0495 Thanks again for sharing brother and we would be more than happy to get those screenshots from you and create an entire video around them. You can DM me on Instagram with the screenshots or with your email address. Instagram is: instagram.com/@tacticon_armament ...by the way there is a fake Tacticon IG account out there so be sure to use that exact URL.
I'm not a rich man. But because of you guys, I've been able to (without going into severe debt) gear up adequately enough to jump into meaningful training with my brother. Gun belts and pouches, rifle lights, plates & carriers, ifaks, all of it has held up so far. Appreciate you guys.
I’d definitely watch. Don’t have any personal hate toward Mr Botkins, but my god does his arrogance and high pitched nasally voice make you wanna clock the guy.
Theres so many people in this community that claim to be pro 2a but act like elitist snobs. Again i have to say i respect you guys for your company's mission and your message.
Respect for their mission and message… to sell cheap overseas made gear and make fun of other companies? These guys are funny, but have no class - or self awareness. Like constantly make fun of Lucas’s legs and how they could beat him up in a fight, but attribute some “don’t be poor” comment to him… when Lucas constantly advises frugality in buying gear (even other companies gear). It’s just Tacticon on the defense to some bad public perception, but they should just own it - they know who they are - they just resell cheap overseas made stuff with funny USA-bro advertising.
@@bthemedia I definitely do respect their mission message. Also they would have never said a single thing about Lucas if he hadn't opened his mouth in the first place....Just saying
2a was meant for responsible christian white men, the same people of the founders. it was not meant so that 200 years later tyrone can go merk his opps with a switch
I was a few pounds overweight years ago and took up running. Anytime I see heavyset people out trying, even moving slow, I always get their attention and give them a big thumbs up. That little encouragement may make a huge difference in someone’s attempt at improvement. I appreciate you guys!
Haha. I know, but give the boys at Tacticon some props! How about tag team then. Zuck and T-Liar vs Mr Tesla and Sandal Boy? I’m thinking really one sided!
That's not the fight I want to see. I want to see Tacticool Girlfriend vs The Botman. I say TGF takes him easily and she has more style (yes I know what she is but she makes good vids).
How shitty it is that I only found you guys last month. Seeing your dedication to the 2A community and transparency as a whole is outstanding. Keep up the good work Sandalorian
I have been a big fan of trex simply because of their mission statement, but seeing you guys address his now baseless claims and debunk them is top notch stuff. For this in my eyes Tacticon>trex all day everyday
Im a fan of the company (T-Rex) and their products and own many of them. However lucas is an elitist brat and needs to simply shut up. Perhaps he should do 4 years in the army as 11B and then I'll consider paying attention to anything he has to say.
I’ll always buy American when possible but as the world currently sits, you guys are right about a lot and I appreciate the transparency and dedication to the cause.
I don’t buy from y’all because it’s cheap, I buy from y’all because I like who you are and how you represent yourselves and company. During shtf id would far rather have tacticon on my team than the whole of trex!!!!
What absolutely destroys me is that there is any kind of animosity at all between people in the “gun space / pro-gun” community! We should all be singing from the same song sheet for God’s sake! We should stand united and support eachother because if SHTF for real it’s most definitely gonna be us v them scenario and we need to stand strong together! Glad you guys are addressing this! Shame that it happens tho!
@@TacticonArmamentbro we all know he would NEVER do that… he is a key board warrior and u can tell that just from his body build 🤣 but this isn’t a community to make fun of people just stating facts. Hence why he wouldn’t name any company’s out right in the post… not man enough.. just like he likes to play toy soldier but was never man enough to enlist… just some leach trying to suck money out of a huge industry… little vampire is all he is
This tells the character of those in this for principle and those in it for money/clout. I've found that TREX has provided some decent information over the years there is a lack of something. . . perhaps that lack is knowing what it's like to be shot at or sitting in a 130 degree Stryker or MRAP waiting to get blown up. Let's call it the "thing". The wires are rerouted in a mans head and there is something difficult to explain about it. . . Botkin doesn't have that "thing". You can have all the information in the world and a good ability to explain it, but speaking to crowd preparing for that "thing," it helps to have experienced that "thing" yourself. He's never been led by anyone. The best leaders were once the best followers.
The sniff test cabe back that L-Bot is threatened by you guys. Nuff Said. Love your gear. He can stick to holsters, they are well made, but he runs the mouth too much. A lot of 2a guys in may last class had tacticon slings and they held up great. Merry X Mas and Jake, we need TacticonFlops! - Greg
Making a good holster doesn't mean anything. I have a holster made for basketball shorts and sweatpants and it's the best holster I've personally ever had. And it cost me 5 bucks.
This conversation needs to take place and I'm glad you guys brought it up. As background, I was vaccine injured in '21 and my life was forever changed (devastated). In an instant I went from having a good life with a great income to coasting to crashing and burning with permanent disability. I have never felt so vulnerable in terms of safety or security. A $15 tq could be the difference between life and death when flashy items are simply off the table. Thank you for bringing critical supplies to the market for the rest of us.
For the record… I do watch their content. I will say they do offer a lot of really great content knowledge wise. However for a lower middle class guy they also make you feel like shit for not having insane budgets for optics, weapons and what not. I love everything you guys stand for and do. I’ve commented a few times asking if you’re hiring and moving my family across the country to support this endeavor is how much I believe in it. Don’t stop doing what you guys are doing. Frickin love it.
Most of the big gun tubers are being sponsored. They get alot of those nice things for free from manufactures including ammo to review and name drop on their videos
I know I quiet watching them cause they snobs and say you gonna die if you don't have a dd or kac or the best gear and some people trying to support a family on limited budget I got what mid tier rifle I could afford and some more offordable gear like a budget battle belt but still seems to work very well
Don't comment asking for a job. You got to stand out. Most people doing that are just bots making up shit. Make a cover letter for your resume with pictures of yourself/family and email it to them asking for a job.
I have something to say. 1: I bought my double rifle case from Tacticon and it has been great! I work in Law enforcement and I’m hard on gear and I can honestly say I have beat the hell out of this case and it hasn’t even so much as had a thread fray after several years of hard use. It is outstanding quality! What you guys are doing as a company is outstanding! It’s great to have a veteran owned and operated company that’s putting out quality gear at an affordable price. The people that actually use this stuff in real world environments don’t make a lot of money, like our military and first responders and you guys get that because you’ve lived it. Tacticon Armament definitely has my business and you can know that your gear is holding up in real world environments and I would have no problem helping you guys show that. Anytime a fellow officer is looking for quality new gear on a police officer’s budget I tell them to check out Tacticon Armament and no one has had any complaints. I’m actually about to order a new IWB holster from you guys as well as a new plate carrier.
If you mean $30 a TQ, every company sells them for that, including North American Rescue. When we poors complain, it doesn’t prove our point, just makes us look like b--chs
@@michaellathrop3640 100% just referring to that holster mark up. I mean it is what it is, Capitalism is everywhere. Just vote with your dollar. The TQ thing? Honestly no comment. I’ve seen name brand fail do to improper storage/handling and lives saved with a simple cloth pull type belt and buckle. Check your equipment, train, and make do when needed.
I've made several purchases from Tacticon and they've all been winners, from a scout light for my SBR to a tourniquet and some other things. What I appreciate most is your dedication to pricing things so everyone can afford to have what they need to exercise their Second Amendment rights. You're good people. So I stand with you guys in this debate 100%. Thanks again Jake and Nolan. Merry Christmas! 🎄
You guys are killing it, you've built a following through transparency and providing visible yet factual testing and choose lower priced volume over high end contract support, and we love and back you , haters just be wanting some of what you built, nothing new, we are legion. !! At least you didn't name your company after a plastic kids toy...🦖🦖
Ever since I’ve heard of you guys 2-3 years ago, I haven’t stopped buying your guys stuff. It’s never failed me and has allowed me to get some training in while being a full time student and working a job. Really appreciate you guys and know that you guys really care about the community. God bless and Merry Christmas guys 🙌🏻
Got recommended to you guys by my green beret bjj friend. As someone who grew up super poor. I was only able to train because someone opened that door and told me to pay it forward in the future. Companies that create quality products that common people can afford. Will have my business and support always. It happens in many communities even mine. Expensive gear doesn’t replace quality training. I trained with hand me down gear for the longest. Thank you for standing up for the common man.
your company’s transparency, mission, and willingness to stand up for your beliefs are unmatched. for that you all have my respect and my business. just got my falcon v0.5 and my apex predator v3 solar mounted last night. the quality is A tier, and the price is beyond reasonable for what you’re getting. props to you amazing patriots!
I love the products y'all manufacture and sell. I like the "at home" and "more affordable" parts of y'all's gear. Been good working with y'all so far and can't wait for what the future entails. And trust me, your kit WORKS and it's a great for range kit to force on force to simulation environments to life saving kit. Much love to guys.
Lucas at Trex Arms… is literally the nerdy, Milly Vanilly… scripted … fast food version of “tactical”. I trust you guys 100 percent over Trex arms…. You can tell you 2 actually have heart, resolve and conviction in what you do and everything that you make…. Because you both actually live it… not just talk about it… Mr. Flip flops, ur training videos have helped me greatly and u personify the process.. slow is smooth and smooth is fast… Mr Dines… I still can’t stop laughing at the “what ur rifle says about you” video…. Thank you guys for all you do… and speaking the truth!!
@@TacticonArmamentAbsolutely brother!! …you guys keep doing what you are doing.. the lies Lucus speaks.. is just proof that he fears you guys as competitors… your definitely doing things right… stay well.
I trust my life to Tacticon's gear. Not because they make me laugh, or because I think they are cool (they definitely are cool). Its because of the constant transparency of how they do business, what materials they use and what they stand for. I also got my plates in the mail yesterday with the plate carrier I ordered for my brother. And let me tell you. THEY ARE EXCELLENT. You guys keep doing what you know is right, and I will keep purchasing your products. God bless you guys and take care.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! IT!!! IS!!! TIME!!! Fighting out of the blue corner. Weighing in at, whatever damp denim is. With a 0 and 69 being trolled record. Lucas “tiny arms” Botkin!!! And fighting out of the red corner. Standing at 73 flops tall with a 69 and 0 trolling win streak! Nolan “Trick shot” Olsten!
Curls here is pretty tall, can do a backflip in sandles, has a relatively stout build for being a tall lank. Curls would win by TKO in less than 45 seconds and no, I'm not exaggerating.
Much respect for y'all's mission of making your products common use and affordable. Also the way you guy's put it on tge table for the skinny kid botkin to hear. 🇺🇲
Years ago, when I was a brand-new dad, I started saving for a rifle. It took me two years putting some here and there away but I finally got one. I got interested in the second amendment community, and was naturally led to T-Rex arms by the algorithms. After months of watching his content, I asked what an affordable optic option would look like being that it took me a couple of years to save up some money for a rifle on the side and I didn’t want to take away from our budget for our little family when there wasn’t much to go around. His answer was not, “here’s a budget item I can recommend so you can get out there and start training!” His answer was, and I’m paraphrasing but almost quoting, stop being poor and buy the most expensive optic because this is literally life-saving equipment. The way he spoke to me with such condescension, I will never, NEVER! purchase from T-Rex arms. Instead, my money goes to companies like Tacticon. Companies like Palmetto State. Because I know what it feels like to be poor. I know what it feels like to want to do the right thing and not be able to afford to do what the “just don’t be poor” crowd recommends. I’ve never had a failure from Palmetto state. Everything I’ve purchased from Tacticon is top-notch and high quality. So far, I’ve not had a failure from any Tacticon holster, optic (new solar, so… still playing), belt, or carrier… I’m not an operator. I’m a dad who is trying for his kids and his wife. I’m an American. I purchase from Tacticon. Thank you, Jake and Nolan… I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your mission.(no homo, but straight ❤).
Thank you for this message, brother. Thank you for the support. Messages like this really do kind of take my words away of how awesome it is to actually be helping and making an impact. Thank you.
Yalls comedy drew me to the company, the product made me a repeat customer, the morals yall have ( discovered from yalls podcasts) is the reason i push yall to the saftey team at my church.
This is one of the huge reasons I love you guys. Tbh I’m poor! I don’t have money to dump $1200 into a acog as much as I’d like too, I have red dots from yall and they’ve held up great. Thank you for being so transparent about your products and helping us poors. PS- Lucas is a dick never could stand him 😂
Get a PA microprism, the 3x. It's pretty damn good and some ways better than the standard COG, better over all than the 3x COG which is the worst one Trij makes.
I have a lot of respect for you guys what you guys stand for. I believe you guys are doing a great thing by showing that you don’t need to spend a ton of money to get good quality gear. And it’s really annoying to see people just hide behind Instagram and talk crap. Rather than have a conversation like adults like you stated in this video. Props to you guys for being real with everyone and down to earth guys.
I've purchased a couple items from you guys including a plate carrier today! It's your transparency and love for affordable and quality equipment that have made me a lifetime supporter of you and your company! Love you guys
@@Billyjoe978This happened to me as well and then the order just showed up. Their customer service is great, I reached out the day it just appeared (pure coincidence) but they got back to me within a day.
Fucking love these guys, really hate seeing beef in a community that shouldn’t be fighting each other but should be fighting the people trying to take away our rights.
I have been a “made in the USA” guy for quite awhile because it seems to afford some level of assurance of quality. However, most companies don’t have a face, USA or foreign. You two guys are the face of Tacticon, and I trust and love you dudes, therefor I buy your products and smile all the way to the bank because of the prices you being to the table. Tacticon is what American needs!!!!!!! Take my money!!!!!!
I recently found out about you guys and had no idea you were based in California! I think your message that 2A supporters should be working together rather than fighting over stupid stuff is extremely important. I will support you guys as much as I can. Hopefully this stuff with Lucas can end on a positive note.
I gotta be honest he acts and sounds exactly how he looks like a 15 year old, he bad mouths products and people with no real basis besides it doesnt cost what mine costs so it doesnt work cause its cheaper then mine
I live in California, behind enemy lines, I have a family and this company has given me the ability to get gear and at least get my foot in the door. So props to these guys for doing what they do.
I’m not a gun expert but yes I definitely agree some of the prices are definitely over priced. You see a mount from a well known company that produces the mount for $300 with 7075 aluminum then you have a not known company make a mount very similar to it with 7075 aluminum and charges half. I feel like it’s the name that your paying for not the actual product at this point
Lucas "Boys Pants" Botkins lost all respect in the 2A community swear years ago when Tier One Operators called him out for claiming to train Tier One Teams. I will admit he does shoot good, but anyone here can shoot as good as him if you were given a unlimited ammo supply also.
Ya'll are some pretty cool guys. I have been slowly becoming jaded with Lucas and his message ove the past few years of "dont be poor" its becoming kind of obvious hes losing his touch with the common man how only makes 40000 a year and most of that goes to just keeping a house and food on the table. You guys seem like real guys with a real understanding of who you are selling too. So keep it up! Also i to am a man of the flip-flop, you truly are an inspiration! P.s. when will the 1200 Lumen lights be back in stock?😁
Nothing but respect for you two, especially openly saying your cost and margins on the IWB holster. It's been long awaited for a company in the 2A community to mention how tech has caught up to product demand/design so something as simple as a light or plastic holster shouldn't be hundreds of dollars. Also how these giant defense or firearm/defense companies are charging ridiculous prices for firearms/accessories/optics because of "R&D" when they've more than recouped the cost, furthermore have streamlines processes making them more efficient. How much "R&D" can a red dot, holster, or TQ require? Keep it up and God Bless.
Tacticon with just 10-7'd T-Rex Arms. Loved this episode! So far I am extremely happy with all my Tacticon purchases and haven't experienced any quality issues. Hopefully you guys are working on larger ballistic helmets for us coconut skulls and would love to see y'all get into night vision if that's at all on the table!
I have bought many things from you guys (including 4 tq) and i will continue to support y'all. I appreciate everything you do for the community and your transparency!
One of the coolest things about this is as creators of a company / brand you both have become a brand yourself. You need to go ahead and get curly haired flip flop man trademarked!
If you guys start making flipflops, imma buy like 10 of em In all seriousness, you guys make great content, your products are well priced, and the transparency is much appreciated. I recently got one of your v1 BattleBeams in blue and am pretty happy with it. Have it on an AR for now, since i don't have any holsters that'll accomodate pistols with lasers or lights. But yeah, if you guys start making flipflops I'm gonna be ordering a few Just ordered your IWB holster to try it out on a few carry guns with the battlebeam Regards, J
I'm a machinist with 16 years experience in my trade. I received a degree in gunsmithing in 2006. I have worked both my small business for 8 years and a full time job at multiple facilities in 3 different states. As an employee in large souless companies manufacturing for names like Lockheed, Baal,Raytheon,Bae ect. You wouldn't believe how much we source material and parts from foreign sources, cut the final operations or finishing on and then repackage with a made in USA sticker on it. Everyone does it these days. It's the only way to stay competitive and keep pricing down. The only difference is how honest a company is about it. The fact these guys are both producing what matters in house and outsourcing from other vetted companies to keep our prices low is commendable. I'm all for American made being in manufacturing myself but the distance between reality and expectation is disappointment. Let's be honest, for those of us on a budget and trying to put our money where it counts ie ammo for training or a better base weapons platform the difference between what Tacticon charges for mag puches vs a company like HSGI is vast. If the quality is there I'm just going to be objective about it. Not knocking anyone- just being strait forward. The insite Jake and the sandalorian offer here on actual cost and sourcing is dead on. As far as ive seen Tacticon is true to their mission statement and are exemplary Americans looking to make the difference more usa companies should be looking to make. As far as I'm concerned Lucas is just another spoiled ameri"cant" looking to capitalize at the peoples expense. He a symptom of the greater problem, not the solution he should be striving to be. His big me little you attitude is phucking disgusting. And there I was living in an mgpts medium on a deck while building a cabin for my family in rebel held Arkansas territory when tacticons shorts popped up. Not only did I get a sorely needed laugh, upon further research I discoverd a genuine USA owned company with a message you can stand behind. Their quality+price is one of a kind in an ocean of souless cookie cutter clones. Thank you guys for your content/products and keep up the good fight!
I appreciate this video. I asked a question of customer service in reference to 2 Tacticon Armament tourniquets that I own vs 1 NAR, 1 Rhino Rescue, and 1 Live The Creed. All 3 from other companies are stamped and marked with the NSN numbers, Tacticon isn't which concerned me because the ones from Tacticon look identical to all the fake ones from Amazon and eBay that lack the marking. Customer service reached out concerning my email and shared this video with me and again I greatly appreciate it. I didn't think honestly that Jake and Hop would intentionally or maliciously sell fake products especially those designed to save life. Great job guys.
Gun and gear snobbery is disgusting and unforgiveable. In most cases, poverty isn't a choice. Average rent now is around 1400 dollars per month, that by itself is going to result in millions of poor people. Poor people are still good people.
I've now switched from Trex Amrs to Tacticon. I was using both, but I'm no longer going to support a company that attacks others in the 2A community. For what? Profit? Nah man, we're supposed to be a team. Loving my Tacticon Vest Elite, glad I found you guys!
Love Tacticon's business philosophy. Keeping good gear as affordable as possible but still making it a profitable business without gouging customers. You guys are awesome!
Since when did affordable good quality gear equate to crap items? Some b.s campaign smearing. Love your guys mission and quality equipment! Keep on rockin'!
Appreciate you guys. I agree that spending obscene amounts on some things is ridiculous for most. Optics and expensive ar 15s are really overpriced as well as a variety of firearm related items. Medical gear is the only thing i dont buy cheaper options. After taking multiple courses from EMT professionals and combat medics i am currently convinced that higher priced items for saving a life are preferred. May change my mind in the future though. At the moment a few extra bucks is worth it to me. You guys are awesome. Peace.
This was great. Just subbed to the channel and didn’t know about your company until today. I respect and appreciate how you think and what you’re doing. This video helped clear up a ton of questions I had about products in general. With so much on the market and an overwhelming amount of information it was difficult to trust anything or anyone and make a decision with my money. I’m in need of a new holster soon once I pick up my new pistol. I’ll be trying out the holster you guys offer. Thanks for the useful content.
@@autismawarenessford2community it’s been circulating within members of the SOF community. It has been rumored throughout the internet, as a simple search like, “Lucas botkin can’t move a rescue Randy at shooting competition”.
I love yalls transparency about your products and just everything in general. Won me over easily both from that and yalls informative evidence based videos. I’ve got a wife and baby on the way while closing on a house. Moneys real tight and I thought I’d never be able to afford plates or parts for my 1 rifle but then y’all and PSA helped make that possible for me.
What most Christians don't know is that the life of Christ dwells within us and we are in Him, and we have to learn how to live, move, and breath living in the Spirit by staying open and aware of Jesus's life within. If we don't learn to turn and keep turning, we will just be the fleshly us.
I've always had a problem with Lucas. I respect his stance on the 2nd amendment and obviously, he's a good shooter. MY problem is his elitism. This "holier than thou." nonsense he's constantly peddling. MOST of us don't have private ranges and MOST of us can't just drop 4 grand, to build out a Daniel Defense. like dude, my budget is a radical arms rifle with a fucking Holoson on top and whatever light I can strap to it. I think that most of us right now. he would have a lot less faith in surefire is he just googled "Surefire exploding." sorry for the long rant but MAN is it annoying.
I really don’t think TRex is some money hungry company that you try to make them out to be. Take their hinge for the sidecar holster. Not only did they not patent it, but they made it open source and desire other manufacturers to utilize it as they wish. They have tons of open source data available. That doesn’t seem like a company that is simply money hungry.
I’m a T/A user and fan 4life 😉. Honestly at first I was skeptical because company being from California ( born and raised in LA but left Cali 22’ ) and my mind for Cali companies changed lol. But you guys are top notch for taking care of the customer and making affordable products. I had an issue with the Magnifier and was sent a new one quickly. I was surprised, but that’s the golden service Tacticon Armament stand by! Thanks homies
Gonna hold off on ALL equipment purchases for my guns until they are available from you guys. Gen 5 Glock 20 concealment holster (pretty please). VNSH will work for now, but I'll be waiting for sure. Any armor I get will be from you guys. Love companies that think about the little guy, especially with this economy.
Found you guys a few months ago and have been subbed and watching ever since. I absolutely love your ideals and approach to everything you do in your business and online. You can tell you actually care about what your doing and wanting to help Americans which i truly appreciate. I also think you guys are funny as shit which doesnt hurt either, lol but im totally on your side with the whole trex thing. There has just always been something about him that just rubs me wrong, one of those i cant put my finger on it, but just not for me. Anyway i definitely support you guys, i wish you all a happy holidays and will certainly be watching.
I appreciate y’all‘s mission as a father of four working 100 hours a week. It’s still hard to have money to spend on yourself and things that you want. You have done an excellent job making your products affordable and durable. My kids are very hard on everything so if you would like some really greatproduct reviews send me some stuff. I will let my nine-year-old and two-year-old bang them around and we’ll see how tough they really are. Lol keep up the good work men.❤❤❤❤
I bought a 20 dollar tourniquet when I was in the military. It was modeled after the “CAT”. I did my final evaluation for train the trainer on tourniquet application. Every student (probably 20) had to utilize it as part of my evaluation. I still have that tourniquet and I keep it handy to this day. It has probably been used at least 100 times and performs flawless.
I bought your medical kit and a bundle of TQs just because this video. I’m glad the algo actually did some good and showed me your content. Thanks for doing what you do.
In my latest career in life, I chosen brutal honesty upfront! This shows integrity! It may not always be well received but appreciated afterwards when they get screwed by the person spewing 💩. Keep up the good work. Your company is awesome and your customer service is outstanding! Hater’s will hate. Real men live and move forward!
Big fan of what you guys are doing. I like the above the bar approach you guys take. The 2A community should do everything we can to stick together. Thanks guys!
“I can’t tell you how to run your company, but I can tell you that your shit is overpriced”! That was great! Keep up the excellent work fellas! You most definitely have my support.

Holy crap bro. Thank you for the comment, and we are honored to have been a part of saving someone's life.
Thank you
@@TacticonArmament it was a scary situation for sure, but it all worked out thankfully!! I can get some GoPro clips and email them to you guys if you needed me to.. and this happened A FEW MONTHS AGO.. so there's no way for anything to be "staged".. plus I doubt anybody would take a 556 to the leg just to prove a HATER wrong about gear being "cheap"..😂.. But I and MANY MANY others appreciate you guys making QUALITY AFFORDABLE GEAR for the average guys!! 💪✌️
@@bamadondon0495 Thanks again for sharing brother and we would be more than happy to get those screenshots from you and create an entire video around them. You can DM me on Instagram with the screenshots or with your email address. Instagram is: instagram.com/@tacticon_armament ...by the way there is a fake Tacticon IG account out there so be sure to use that exact URL.
Made in Japan still rocks!

This needs to be a patch.
Slap it on a T-shirt. And instead of carrying a baby yoda, show it carrying a baby t-Rex 😂

You have spoken! Please pin this comment
I'm not a rich man. But because of you guys, I've been able to (without going into severe debt) gear up adequately enough to jump into meaningful training with my brother.
Gun belts and pouches, rifle lights, plates & carriers, ifaks, all of it has held up so far.
Appreciate you guys.
Would in fact pay large quantities of money to watch Nolan just slap Lucas around for any amount of time.
Yes, this 100%.
I’d definitely watch. Don’t have any personal hate toward Mr Botkins, but my god does his arrogance and high pitched nasally voice make you wanna clock the guy.
Lucas needs to be disciplined and his teeth checked 😂
I feel like it would be a rip-off... It would be over so fast. 😂
Same id even donate to a charity pot
Theres so many people in this community that claim to be pro 2a but act like elitist snobs. Again i have to say i respect you guys for your company's mission and your message.
Fact. The gatekeeping elitists are regarded.
Respect for their mission and message… to sell cheap overseas made gear and make fun of other companies? These guys are funny, but have no class - or self awareness. Like constantly make fun of Lucas’s legs and how they could beat him up in a fight, but attribute some “don’t be poor” comment to him… when Lucas constantly advises frugality in buying gear (even other companies gear). It’s just Tacticon on the defense to some bad public perception, but they should just own it - they know who they are - they just resell cheap overseas made stuff with funny USA-bro advertising.
@@bthemedia I definitely do respect their mission message. Also they would have never said a single thing about Lucas if he hadn't opened his mouth in the first place....Just saying
2a was meant for responsible christian white men, the same people of the founders. it was not meant so that 200 years later tyrone can go merk his opps with a switch
I was a few pounds overweight years ago and took up running. Anytime I see heavyset people out trying, even moving slow, I always get their attention and give them a big thumbs up. That little encouragement may make a huge difference in someone’s attempt at improvement. I appreciate you guys!
I'm thinking that Flip-Flop Man vs. The Bottman might draw a bigger viewership than Zuck vs Musk! LMAO 😂😂😂
It would be fun, but that statement is so outlandish. If the Zuck fights Musk close to half a billion people would watch, damn near guaranteed.
Haha. I know, but give the boys at Tacticon some props! How about tag team then. Zuck and T-Liar vs Mr Tesla and Sandal Boy? I’m thinking really one sided!
That's not the fight I want to see. I want to see Tacticool Girlfriend vs The Botman. I say TGF takes him easily and she has more style (yes I know what she is but she makes good vids).
Nolan is the Sandelorian
😂😂😂😂💯%
How shitty it is that I only found you guys last month. Seeing your dedication to the 2A community and transparency as a whole is outstanding. Keep up the good work Sandalorian
I'm 1:35 seconds in, and yes. In my veins, sir. I really appreciate this company and channel. Both are quickly becoming my favorite.
Thanks for the support brother
I have a lot of TREX products, but I absolutely love how honest you guys are. Will definitely be supporting y’all from here on out
I have been a big fan of trex simply because of their mission statement, but seeing you guys address his now baseless claims and debunk them is top notch stuff. For this in my eyes Tacticon>trex all day everyday
I felt and now feel the same way
Im a fan of the company (T-Rex) and their products and own many of them. However lucas is an elitist brat and needs to simply shut up. Perhaps he should do 4 years in the army as 11B and then I'll consider paying attention to anything he has to say.
Sidecar is a nice holster, but unfortunately, tacticon dont make a 43x with light option.
To clarify it was Lucas not trex arms making the claims. I love both tacticon and trex
@@itsFiggersthis is the main issue. He tries to pass off “military knowledge” when he has no military experience
I’ll always buy American when possible but as the world currently sits, you guys are right about a lot and I appreciate the transparency and dedication to the cause.
I don’t buy from y’all because it’s cheap, I buy from y’all because I like who you are and how you represent yourselves and company. During shtf id would far rather have tacticon on my team than the whole of trex!!!!
Botkin has made jabs at other companies in the past. It seems to be his MO.
Keep up the good work, gents!
Exactly he took a jab at the Hydra and I chat back in forth with one of the owners and they said "Lucas who."
What absolutely destroys me is that there is any kind of animosity at all between people in the “gun space / pro-gun” community!
We should all be singing from the same song sheet for God’s sake!
We should stand united and support eachother because if SHTF for real it’s most definitely gonna be us v them scenario and we need to stand strong together!
Glad you guys are addressing this! Shame that it happens tho!
Agreed. We want nothing more than to get him on a podcast (or in a UFC octagon 😆) and put this sh*t to bed.
And all the Lord's children said "AMEN"!!!
@@TacticonArmamentbro we all know he would NEVER do that… he is a key board warrior and u can tell that just from his body build 🤣 but this isn’t a community to make fun of people just stating facts. Hence why he wouldn’t name any company’s out right in the post… not man enough.. just like he likes to play toy soldier but was never man enough to enlist… just some leach trying to suck money out of a huge industry… little vampire is all he is
This tells the character of those in this for principle and those in it for money/clout. I've found that TREX has provided some decent information over the years there is a lack of something. . . perhaps that lack is knowing what it's like to be shot at or sitting in a 130 degree Stryker or MRAP waiting to get blown up. Let's call it the "thing". The wires are rerouted in a mans head and there is something difficult to explain about it. . . Botkin doesn't have that "thing". You can have all the information in the world and a good ability to explain it, but speaking to crowd preparing for that "thing," it helps to have experienced that "thing" yourself. He's never been led by anyone. The best leaders were once the best followers.
@@richs.376 yup. It’s pretty easy to spot those that are the real deal out there. 👍
The sniff test cabe back that L-Bot is threatened by you guys. Nuff Said. Love your gear. He can stick to holsters, they are well made, but he runs the mouth too much. A lot of 2a guys in may last class had tacticon slings and they held up great. Merry X Mas and Jake, we need TacticonFlops! - Greg
Making a good holster doesn't mean anything. I have a holster made for basketball shorts and sweatpants and it's the best holster I've personally ever had. And it cost me 5 bucks.
You guys are becoming one of my favorite gun channels. The info, the mission, and the steadfast dedication is refreshing. Keep it up fellas.
This conversation needs to take place and I'm glad you guys brought it up. As background, I was vaccine injured in '21 and my life was forever changed (devastated). In an instant I went from having a good life with a great income to coasting to crashing and burning with permanent disability. I have never felt so vulnerable in terms of safety or security. A $15 tq could be the difference between life and death when flashy items are simply off the table. Thank you for bringing critical supplies to the market for the rest of us.
There is no such thing as "vaccine injured." It's all in your head.
For the record… I do watch their content. I will say they do offer a lot of really great content knowledge wise. However for a lower middle class guy they also make you feel like shit for not having insane budgets for optics, weapons and what not. I love everything you guys stand for and do. I’ve commented a few times asking if you’re hiring and moving my family across the country to support this endeavor is how much I believe in it. Don’t stop doing what you guys are doing. Frickin love it.
Most of the big gun tubers are being sponsored. They get alot of those nice things for free from manufactures including ammo to review and name drop on their videos
I know I quiet watching them cause they snobs and say you gonna die if you don't have a dd or kac or the best gear and some people trying to support a family on limited budget I got what mid tier rifle I could afford and some more offordable gear like a budget battle belt but still seems to work very well
Don't comment asking for a job. You got to stand out. Most people doing that are just bots making up shit. Make a cover letter for your resume with pictures of yourself/family and email it to them asking for a job.
@BlackoutPatriot leviathan group.
Not saying all content creatirs who are sponsored by them are in the wrong. But you're definitely right
I have something to say. 1: I bought my double rifle case from Tacticon and it has been great! I work in Law enforcement and I’m hard on gear and I can honestly say I have beat the hell out of this case and it hasn’t even so much as had a thread fray after several years of hard use. It is outstanding quality! What you guys are doing as a company is outstanding! It’s great to have a veteran owned and operated company that’s putting out quality gear at an affordable price. The people that actually use this stuff in real world environments don’t make a lot of money, like our military and first responders and you guys get that because you’ve lived it. Tacticon Armament definitely has my business and you can know that your gear is holding up in real world environments and I would have no problem helping you guys show that. Anytime a fellow officer is looking for quality new gear on a police officer’s budget I tell them to check out Tacticon Armament and no one has had any complaints. I’m actually about to order a new IWB holster from you guys as well as a new plate carrier.
“No reason it should cost that much” well, something’s gotta pay for those large salaries, and that huge custom range 😂😅
If you mean $30 a TQ, every company sells them for that, including North American Rescue. When we poors complain, it doesn’t prove our point, just makes us look like b--chs
You can stop being poor by overcharging for products and gaslighting people into overpaying
@@michaellathrop3640 100% just referring to that holster mark up. I mean it is what it is, Capitalism is everywhere. Just vote with your dollar. The TQ thing? Honestly no comment. I’ve seen name brand fail do to improper storage/handling and lives saved with a simple cloth pull type belt and buckle. Check your equipment, train, and make do when needed.
I've made several purchases from Tacticon and they've all been winners, from a scout light for my SBR to a tourniquet and some other things. What I appreciate most is your dedication to pricing things so everyone can afford to have what they need to exercise their Second Amendment rights. You're good people. So I stand with you guys in this debate 100%.
Thanks again Jake and Nolan. Merry Christmas! 🎄
You guys are killing it, you've built a following through transparency and providing visible yet factual testing and choose lower priced volume over high end contract support, and we love and back you , haters just be wanting some of what you built, nothing new, we are legion. !! At least you didn't name your company after a plastic kids toy...🦖🦖
Ever since I’ve heard of you guys 2-3 years ago, I haven’t stopped buying your guys stuff. It’s never failed me and has allowed me to get some training in while being a full time student and working a job. Really appreciate you guys and know that you guys really care about the community. God bless and Merry Christmas guys 🙌🏻
Got recommended to you guys by my green beret bjj friend. As someone who grew up super poor. I was only able to train because someone opened that door and told me to pay it forward in the future.
Companies that create quality products that common people can afford.
Will have my business and support always. It happens in many communities even mine.
Expensive gear doesn’t replace quality training. I trained with hand me down gear for the longest.
Thank you for standing up for the common man.
your company’s transparency, mission, and willingness to stand up for your beliefs are unmatched. for that you all have my respect and my business. just got my falcon v0.5 and my apex predator v3 solar mounted last night. the quality is A tier, and the price is beyond reasonable for what you’re getting. props to you amazing patriots!
I love the products y'all manufacture and sell. I like the "at home" and "more affordable" parts of y'all's gear. Been good working with y'all so far and can't wait for what the future entails. And trust me, your kit WORKS and it's a great for range kit to force on force to simulation environments to life saving kit. Much love to guys.
Lucas at Trex Arms… is literally the nerdy, Milly Vanilly… scripted … fast food version of “tactical”. I trust you guys 100 percent over Trex arms…. You can tell you 2 actually have heart, resolve and conviction in what you do and everything that you make…. Because you both actually live it… not just talk about it… Mr. Flip flops, ur training videos have helped me greatly and u personify the process.. slow is smooth and smooth is fast… Mr Dines… I still can’t stop laughing at the “what ur rifle says about you” video…. Thank you guys for all you do… and speaking the truth!!
Thank you brother. Thank you for the comment and the support. Comments like this remind us we are doing something good.
@@TacticonArmamentAbsolutely brother!! …you guys keep doing what you are doing.. the lies Lucus speaks.. is just proof that he fears you guys as competitors… your definitely doing things right… stay well.
I like Trex content, but Lucas is a dildo
Poor Lucas is a never gonna be……
I keepFinding myself eagerly waiting each week for the new 2A Procast to drop. I hope this S*** goes viral and you get the exposure that yall deserve
I trust my life to Tacticon's gear. Not because they make me laugh, or because I think they are cool (they definitely are cool). Its because of the constant transparency of how they do business, what materials they use and what they stand for. I also got my plates in the mail yesterday with the plate carrier I ordered for my brother. And let me tell you. THEY ARE EXCELLENT. You guys keep doing what you know is right, and I will keep purchasing your products. God bless you guys and take care.
Excited to get my Battle Belt Bundle from you guys. Thanks for supporting the common man!

Curls here is pretty tall, can do a backflip in sandles, has a relatively stout build for being a tall lank.
Curls would win by TKO in less than 45 seconds and no, I'm not exaggerating.
There is so much to unload from this video, but my biggest takeaway is the raw, relatable, real, and transparency y'all continue to bring.
Much respect for y'all's mission of making your products common use and affordable. Also the way you guy's put it on tge table for the skinny kid botkin to hear. 🇺🇲
Love the transparency, Tacticon is now my first stop for all things tactical
Keep up the good work boys. Haters gonna hate. I predict he won't take Nolan's challenge. He dont want that flops smoke!
Years ago, when I was a brand-new dad, I started saving for a rifle. It took me two years putting some here and there away but I finally got one. I got interested in the second amendment community, and was naturally led to T-Rex arms by the algorithms. After months of watching his content, I asked what an affordable optic option would look like being that it took me a couple of years to save up some money for a rifle on the side and I didn’t want to take away from our budget for our little family when there wasn’t much to go around. His answer was not, “here’s a budget item I can recommend so you can get out there and start training!”
His answer was, and I’m paraphrasing but almost quoting, stop being poor and buy the most expensive optic because this is literally life-saving equipment.
The way he spoke to me with such condescension, I will never, NEVER! purchase from T-Rex arms. Instead, my money goes to companies like Tacticon. Companies like Palmetto State. Because I know what it feels like to be poor. I know what it feels like to want to do the right thing and not be able to afford to do what the “just don’t be poor” crowd recommends.
I’ve never had a failure from Palmetto state. Everything I’ve purchased from Tacticon is top-notch and high quality. So far, I’ve not had a failure from any Tacticon holster, optic (new solar, so… still playing), belt, or carrier…
I’m not an operator. I’m a dad who is trying for his kids and his wife. I’m an American. I purchase from Tacticon.
Thank you, Jake and Nolan… I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your mission.(no homo, but straight ❤).
Thank you for this message, brother. Thank you for the support. Messages like this really do kind of take my words away of how awesome it is to actually be helping and making an impact. Thank you.
I also really appreciate your guys' mission and products. Happy TA product owner.
Agreed. I’m a customer and they’ve made it so I’m able to have quality gear with starving my family. Grateful!
We appreciate you guys right back
Yalls comedy drew me to the company, the product made me a repeat customer, the morals yall have ( discovered from yalls podcasts) is the reason i push yall to the saftey team at my church.
This is one of the huge reasons I love you guys. Tbh I’m poor! I don’t have money to dump $1200 into a acog as much as I’d like too, I have red dots from yall and they’ve held up great. Thank you for being so transparent about your products and helping us poors.
PS- Lucas is a dick never could stand him 😂
Poor is a state of mind....
You sir, are broke
Get a PA microprism, the 3x.
It's pretty damn good and some ways better than the standard COG, better over all than the 3x COG which is the worst one Trij makes.
Can I buy one of those used tourniquets with Nolan's essence, so I can put it next to my Alex Zedra used panty collection?
I have a lot of respect for you guys what you guys stand for. I believe you guys are doing a great thing by showing that you don’t need to spend a ton of money to get good quality gear. And it’s really annoying to see people just hide behind Instagram and talk crap.
Rather than have a conversation like adults like you stated in this video.
Props to you guys for being real with everyone and down to earth guys.
I've purchased a couple items from you guys including a plate carrier today! It's your transparency and love for affordable and quality equipment that have made me a lifetime supporter of you and your company! Love you guys
I trust you guys and your products with my life
Thank you brother
I ordered a laser sight for my pistol a week ago and the orders still processing 😭
@@Billyjoe978This happened to me as well and then the order just showed up. Their customer service is great, I reached out the day it just appeared (pure coincidence) but they got back to me within a day.
Fucking love these guys, really hate seeing beef in a community that shouldn’t be fighting each other but should be fighting the people trying to take away our rights.
Dueds! I know why he is angry. His holster is $150, ya'lls is $59!! Of course he will throw shade!
Precisely. Ours $35 with the 40% off right now too! No reason to charge anything more than that while still making a fair margin.
More expensive yet still sells 10x more holsters than tactiwhatever 🤣
I have been a “made in the USA” guy for quite awhile because it seems to afford some level of assurance of quality. However, most companies don’t have a face, USA or foreign. You two guys are the face of Tacticon, and I trust and love you dudes, therefor I buy your products and smile all the way to the bank because of the prices you being to the table. Tacticon is what American needs!!!!!!! Take my money!!!!!!
Skinny jeans are for women i stand by my statement..........
I recently found out about you guys and had no idea you were based in California! I think your message that 2A supporters should be working together rather than fighting over stupid stuff is extremely important. I will support you guys as much as I can. Hopefully this stuff with Lucas can end on a positive note.
My thoughts as well.
I gotta be honest he acts and sounds exactly how he looks like a 15 year old, he bad mouths products and people with no real basis besides it doesnt cost what mine costs so it doesnt work cause its cheaper then mine
By far my favorite new channel, love the content and your company. Keep up the good work!
Love the vids boyz, keep em comin. BTW, how does LucAss lift those guns, seems like the noodle arms would've been a hinderance.
I live in California, behind enemy lines, I have a family and this company has given me the ability to get gear and at least get my foot in the door. So props to these guys for doing what they do.
I’m not a gun expert but yes I definitely agree some of the prices are definitely over priced. You see a mount from a well known company that produces the mount for $300 with 7075 aluminum then you have a not known company make a mount very similar to it with 7075 aluminum and charges half. I feel like it’s the name that your paying for not the actual product at this point
It is a BIG DEAL that you guys are working to bring quality protection equipment to the masses. Don’t get discouraged!
Thank you, guys, for this video. Seriously, you being as transparent as you are is Admirable. I respect the hell out of ya'll.
Lucas "Boys Pants" Botkins lost all respect in the 2A community swear years ago when Tier One Operators called him out for claiming to train Tier One Teams. I will admit he does shoot good, but anyone here can shoot as good as him if you were given a unlimited ammo supply also.
Knowing how and when to use a cat is more important than quality.. possession doesnt equal knowledge
Ya'll are some pretty cool guys. I have been slowly becoming jaded with Lucas and his message ove the past few years of "dont be poor" its becoming kind of obvious hes losing his touch with the common man how only makes 40000 a year and most of that goes to just keeping a house and food on the table. You guys seem like real guys with a real understanding of who you are selling too. So keep it up! Also i to am a man of the flip-flop, you truly are an inspiration! P.s. when will the 1200 Lumen lights be back in stock?😁
Nothing but respect for you two, especially openly saying your cost and margins on the IWB holster. It's been long awaited for a company in the 2A community to mention how tech has caught up to product demand/design so something as simple as a light or plastic holster shouldn't be hundreds of dollars. Also how these giant defense or firearm/defense companies are charging ridiculous prices for firearms/accessories/optics because of "R&D" when they've more than recouped the cost, furthermore have streamlines processes making them more efficient. How much "R&D" can a red dot, holster, or TQ require?
Keep it up and God Bless.
Tacticon with just 10-7'd T-Rex Arms. Loved this episode! So far I am extremely happy with all my Tacticon purchases and haven't experienced any quality issues. Hopefully you guys are working on larger ballistic helmets for us coconut skulls and would love to see y'all get into night vision if that's at all on the table!
if i can get ahold of a 3+ stahlhelm i would be happy. and 3+ shoulder pauldrons.
I have bought many things from you guys (including 4 tq) and i will continue to support y'all. I appreciate everything you do for the community and your transparency!
One of the coolest things about this is as creators of a company / brand you both have become a brand yourself. You need to go ahead and get curly haired flip flop man trademarked!
If you guys start making flipflops, imma buy like 10 of em
In all seriousness, you guys make great content, your products are well priced, and the transparency is much appreciated.
I recently got one of your v1 BattleBeams in blue and am pretty happy with it. Have it on an AR for now, since i don't have any holsters that'll accomodate pistols with lasers or lights.
But yeah, if you guys start making flipflops I'm gonna be ordering a few
Just ordered your IWB holster to try it out on a few carry guns with the battlebeam

I can not stand trex and LB. I'm a Christian but LB hides behind God as if he never does or says anything wrong.
I'm a machinist with 16 years experience in my trade. I received a degree in gunsmithing in 2006. I have worked both my small business for 8 years and a full time job at multiple facilities in 3 different states. As an employee in large souless companies manufacturing for names like Lockheed, Baal,Raytheon,Bae ect. You wouldn't believe how much we source material and parts from foreign sources, cut the final operations or finishing on and then repackage with a made in USA sticker on it. Everyone does it these days. It's the only way to stay competitive and keep pricing down. The only difference is how honest a company is about it. The fact these guys are both producing what matters in house and outsourcing from other vetted companies to keep our prices low is commendable. I'm all for American made being in manufacturing myself but the distance between reality and expectation is disappointment. Let's be honest, for those of us on a budget and trying to put our money where it counts ie ammo for training or a better base weapons platform
the difference between what Tacticon charges for mag puches vs a company like HSGI is vast. If the quality is there I'm just going to be objective about it. Not knocking anyone- just being strait forward.
The insite Jake and the sandalorian offer here on actual cost and sourcing is dead on. As far as ive seen Tacticon is true to their mission statement and are exemplary Americans looking to make the difference more usa companies should be looking to make. As far as I'm concerned Lucas is just another spoiled ameri"cant" looking to capitalize at the peoples expense. He a symptom of the greater problem, not the solution he should be striving to be. His big me little you attitude is phucking disgusting.
And there I was living in an mgpts medium on a deck while building a cabin for my family in rebel held Arkansas territory when tacticons shorts popped up. Not only did I get a sorely needed laugh, upon further research I discoverd a genuine USA owned company with a message you can stand behind. Their quality+price is one of a kind in an ocean of souless cookie cutter clones. Thank you guys for your content/products and keep up the good fight!
I was totally waiting for this when I saw that comment.
I appreciate this video. I asked a question of customer service in reference to 2 Tacticon Armament tourniquets that I own vs 1 NAR, 1 Rhino Rescue, and 1 Live The Creed. All 3 from other companies are stamped and marked with the NSN numbers, Tacticon isn't which concerned me because the ones from Tacticon look identical to all the fake ones from Amazon and eBay that lack the marking. Customer service reached out concerning my email and shared this video with me and again I greatly appreciate it. I didn't think honestly that Jake and Hop would intentionally or maliciously sell fake products especially those designed to save life. Great job guys.
Gun and gear snobbery is disgusting and unforgiveable. In most cases, poverty isn't a choice. Average rent now is around 1400 dollars per month, that by itself is going to result in millions of poor people. Poor people are still good people.
Stop voting in Democrats then. 🤷♂️
I've now switched from Trex Amrs to Tacticon. I was using both, but I'm no longer going to support a company that attacks others in the 2A community. For what? Profit? Nah man, we're supposed to be a team. Loving my Tacticon Vest Elite, glad I found you guys!
I'll put 50 on curley hairdo sandles guy vs Lucas
Love Tacticon's business philosophy. Keeping good gear as affordable as possible but still making it a profitable business without gouging customers. You guys are awesome!
Wasnt even man enough to call out by name.
Since when did affordable good quality gear equate to crap items? Some b.s campaign smearing. Love your guys mission and quality equipment! Keep on rockin'!
Finally
Appreciate you guys. I agree that spending obscene amounts on some things is ridiculous for most. Optics and expensive ar 15s are really overpriced as well as a variety of firearm related items. Medical gear is the only thing i dont buy cheaper options. After taking multiple courses from EMT professionals and combat medics i am currently convinced that higher priced items for saving a life are preferred. May change my mind in the future though. At the moment a few extra bucks is worth it to me. You guys are awesome. Peace.

This was great. Just subbed to the channel and didn’t know about your company until today. I respect and appreciate how you think and what you’re doing. This video helped clear up a ton of questions I had about products in general. With so much on the market and an overwhelming amount of information it was difficult to trust anything or anyone and make a decision with my money. I’m in need of a new holster soon once I pick up my new pistol. I’ll be trying out the holster you guys offer. Thanks for the useful content.
Lucas's claim wasn't that you couldn't get it to work, he said it could break on you.
Remember when Lucas Botkin couldn’t move a Rescue-Randy at a Fort Bragg shooting competition? 😀
No but that's great
He definitely needs to lift more and focus more on physical training
@@TacticonArmament plus many more sources/witnesses available on the webs.
Please tell me this is real and you’re not just bs’n😂 you saw this on video or irl?
@@autismawarenessford2community it’s been circulating within members of the SOF community. It has been rumored throughout the internet, as a simple search like, “Lucas botkin can’t move a rescue Randy at shooting competition”.
All money on Nolan
I love yalls transparency about your products and just everything in general. Won me over easily both from that and yalls informative evidence based videos.
I’ve got a wife and baby on the way while closing on a house. Moneys real tight and I thought I’d never be able to afford plates or parts for my 1 rifle but then y’all and PSA helped make that possible for me.
Lucas needs to be the humble Christian he claims to be. It’s that simple. That simple.
What most Christians don't know is that the life of Christ dwells within us and we are in Him, and we have to learn how to live, move, and breath living in the Spirit by staying open and aware of Jesus's life within. If we don't learn to turn and keep turning, we will just be the fleshly us.
I've always had a problem with Lucas.
I respect his stance on the 2nd amendment and obviously, he's a good shooter.
MY problem is his elitism. This "holier than thou." nonsense he's constantly peddling.
MOST of us don't have private ranges and MOST of us can't just drop 4 grand, to build out a Daniel Defense.
like dude, my budget is a radical arms rifle with a fucking Holoson on top and whatever light I can strap to it.
I think that most of us right now.
he would have a lot less faith in surefire is he just googled "Surefire exploding."
sorry for the long rant but MAN is it annoying.
I really don’t think TRex is some money hungry company that you try to make them out to be. Take their hinge for the sidecar holster. Not only did they not patent it, but they made it open source and desire other manufacturers to utilize it as they wish. They have tons of open source data available. That doesn’t seem like a company that is simply money hungry.
I will pay $140 for T-Rex or tier1 both great products with great customer service. Great content also
I’m a T/A user and fan 4life 😉. Honestly at first I was skeptical because company being from California ( born and raised in LA but left Cali 22’ ) and my mind for Cali companies changed lol. But you guys are top notch for taking care of the customer and making affordable products. I had an issue with the Magnifier and was sent a new one quickly. I was surprised, but that’s the golden service Tacticon Armament stand by! Thanks homies
Gonna hold off on ALL equipment purchases for my guns until they are available from you guys. Gen 5 Glock 20 concealment holster (pretty please). VNSH will work for now, but I'll be waiting for sure. Any armor I get will be from you guys. Love companies that think about the little guy, especially with this economy.
Found you guys a few months ago and have been subbed and watching ever since. I absolutely love your ideals and approach to everything you do in your business and online. You can tell you actually care about what your doing and wanting to help Americans which i truly appreciate. I also think you guys are funny as shit which doesnt hurt either, lol but im totally on your side with the whole trex thing. There has just always been something about him that just rubs me wrong, one of those i cant put my finger on it, but just not for me. Anyway i definitely support you guys, i wish you all a happy holidays and will certainly be watching.
I appreciate y’all‘s mission as a father of four working 100 hours a week. It’s still hard to have money to spend on yourself and things that you want. You have done an excellent job making your products affordable and durable. My kids are very hard on everything so if you would like some really greatproduct reviews send me some stuff. I will let my nine-year-old and two-year-old bang them around and we’ll see how tough they really are. Lol keep up the good work men.❤❤❤❤
This is why I like these guys. They’re honest, and answer shit when it comes up. I would trust these guys over about anyone.
Sad this even happened and big props to you guys for addressing this BS. Lucas needs to pull his head in and stop bring a childish knob
Just bought some kit to support you fellas. Found yall awhile ago, content alone was worth the order. Keep up the good work
kudos for bringing this subject up, I never understood why some gun mounts cost as much as a Glock. Aluminum can only go so far and is very cheap.
I bought a 20 dollar tourniquet when I was in the military. It was modeled after the “CAT”. I did my final evaluation for train the trainer on tourniquet application. Every student (probably 20) had to utilize it as part of my evaluation. I still have that tourniquet and I keep it handy to this day. It has probably been used at least 100 times and performs flawless.
So glad to have found this channel a few months ago. Keep up the good work!
I bought your medical kit and a bundle of TQs just because this video. I’m glad the algo actually did some good and showed me your content. Thanks for doing what you do.
In my latest career in life, I chosen brutal honesty upfront! This shows integrity! It may not always be well received but appreciated afterwards when they get screwed by the person spewing 💩. Keep up the good work. Your company is awesome and your customer service is outstanding! Hater’s will hate. Real men live and move forward!
Big fan of what you guys are doing. I like the above the bar approach you guys take. The 2A community should do everything we can to stick together. Thanks guys!
“I can’t tell you how to run your company, but I can tell you that your shit is overpriced”! That was great! Keep up the excellent work fellas! You most definitely have my support.
