I was watching some videos on YouTube the other day and saw a neat trick from James Yeager. He took some sticky back industrial strength Velcro and used it to attach an SOE shotgun card to his shot gun. My first thought was that thing looks super simple, I’ll just grab some Velcro and elastic and make a shotgun card. I figured it would be a nice DIY article. If you notice the title though this is not a DIY article but a review of the SOE card. That’s because my project failed miserably. The thread kept breaking in the Velcro. After a few hours of frustration I decided to order the SOE ones. When I saw the quality of the SOE ones I knew that ones I had tried to make would have been crap compared to them anyway. So instead today I’ll be reviewing the SOE 12 gauge card and how to make a quick and easy side saddle.

Survivalpunk Shirts Hit The Streets
I’ve been talking about having Survivalpunk merchandise for a while now. I had some issues that kept them from coming out earlier. I also wanted to make sure the design for the shirts was perfect. I worked with a great guy on the design and feel that it came out looking amazing. With that newly designed logo I hit the savings account and went to the presses. The first run of shirts are here now. They are solid black with the logo in red on the back. I have some XL, Large and Medium Left in stock. I ran a sale on Facebook over the weekend and generated a lot of interest in them. I have a few more left to sale before I ship the rest off the Kelly at the TSP Gear Shop to add to the Friends of TSP section. I will extend the sale price of $15 shipped for the rest of the day. Email me James@Survivalpunk.com for details on getting one. Thanks for all the support over this past year.
What would like to see next? More shirts? Stickers or Patches? How about a different color or the logo on the front? Let me know in the comments!

Anniversary Winners
Just a quick announcement that the Big one year anniversary contest is over and I have my winners. The winners are as follows: Charlie B is the grand prize winner getting all the big prizes. Second is Ray G and third is Darrell. I’ll pack up everything when I get home and take pictures of the prize packages. All the winners have received emails from me that hopefully they respond to quickly or I’ll pick new ones. Congrats to the winners and thanks to everyone that participated as well as the great sponsors. This coming week I’ll be on vacation from my day job but this time I will be not going anywhere. I will be working on lots of new content, videos, and should be releaseing T-shirts within the next two weeks. Thanks everyone!

Spyderco Tenacious For EDC
I felt that it was time to finally replace the previously reviewed and loved Kershaw Skyline. The Blade profile was getting bad from early bad attempts at sharpening it. I had accidentally introduced a funky re-curve line in it. Secondly I felt like I wanted a blade that would be a bit bigger and be better suited for self defense. I had mainly narrowed my search down the the Spyderco line of knives. I finally made a decision, with the Spyderco Tenacious, and a purchase and have been testing it for the past week or so. I may revisit this knife after I really put the Tenacious through it’s paces.
Peltor Tactical 6S
Last week when I went to buy my Remington 870 shotgun finally I decided I needed to buy some new hearing protection. When I was shooting at the IDPA match my cheap ones broke. I saw the Peltor Tactical 6S in the store for around sixty dollars. I had been looking at upgrading to the Peltor brand of hearing protection for a while and these seemed like a decent model. I got a chance to take them out and try them, along with the Remington and will be sharing my thoughts on them today.
