The M-1965 Field Jacket (also known as M65, M-65 Field Jacket, and Coat, Cold Weather, Man's Field), named after the year it was introduced,[1] is a popular field jacket initially designed for the United States Armed Forces under the MIL-C-43455 standard. It was introduced into U.S. military service in 1965 to replace the previous M-1951 field jacket, itself an improvement on the M-1943 field jacket introduced during World War II, although the M-51 continued to be issued for quite some time. The front portion of the jacket has two large hip pockets and two medium-sized breast pockets. The collar of the jacket features a zipper which houses a protective hood. The M-1965 field jacket can be combined with a button-in insulated lining for cold-weather wear, as well as a button-on fur trimmed winter hood. The jacket is fastened with a large aluminum (later brass, then nylon) zipper, with a storm flap fastened with snaps covering it. The jacket has also been produced for civilian use since at least the early 1970s, and has been available in many different colors and patterns, many of which were never used by the United States Army or any other armed service.

Once You Try One…Geissele Trigger. 
Tumblr media
I get this exact comment a lot…and I mean at least every time aftermarket triggers come up in conversation with a a group of folk. My mil spec trigger in my AR-15 work just fine… no need to upgrade. If I only had a dollar for every time I’ve heard this. And to be quite honest, I too was one of those guys way back in the day. Milspec triggers work great for what they are. They do. They can be polished somewhat to smooth them out as well. They’re not bad, BUT why cheat yourself out of a better shooting experience? If you’re looking to improve on your match scores, such as in service rifle competition or 2-3 gun competitions, or just in general. Then why limit your self and your AR-15 to a mil spec trigger? That extra crisp break and lighter trigger pull can make a lot of difference. 
Tumblr media
So since we’ve gotten that out of the way, let’s focus on one particular manufacturer in the trigger game and that’s Geissele. Geissele manufacturing has long been known for their triggers. At one point they inly offered a couple different varieties and they were costly comparatively speaking. The Super Select Fire trigger was designed for SOCOM but Geissele offered the SSA or Super Semi-Automatic for standard semi-automatic AR-15s. The SSA triggers MSRP is $245 which is a heck of a lot of coin for a trigger. The price alone discouraged many would be purchases of this kind of excellence, including myself I must say. Over the years Geissele has come out with other trigger variants in both single and dual stage, competition and duty style triggers AND when working with companies like Brownells, Geissele has release exclusive variants such as the G2S and GC that can be had for half the price of one of their standard triggers when on sale. 
Tumblr media
The Brownells exclusive Geissele 2 stage and competition triggers are like gateway drugs into the world of high performing triggers from Geissele. They’re so reasonably priced that they compete very well with other trigger manufacturers. Geissele is in fact a household name in the world of firearms so when someone sees they can pick up a Geissele trigger for sub $150 at times, they tend to lean that way. Then the madness starts… then they have to upgrade their other triggers to other Geissele triggers. I went down this rabbit hole myself and now have a host of firearms with Geissele triggers. My all time favorite Geissele trigger has been the SSA E X. The E is for enhanced and the X refers to the X bow trigger profile on these triggers. It’s kind of a hybrid between a traditional curved tigger face and a flat face. I tend to shoot very well with this particular trigger…it is an amazing trigger. 
Tumblr media
So back to that original comment regarding mil spec triggers being perfectly fine. Well they are just fine. They’re a tigger and hammer that function with a 6LB trigger pull, no obvious trigger break when pulling. They’re just fine. But if you want that life turning event in triggers…get your hands on a Geissele trigger from Brownells. Once you do, no longer will those mil spec triggers be “just fine”.

So uh
A Juki DNU-1541 can punch through two layers of 4088 Type 26 Webbing, I've just learned.
This is over a quarter inch thick and the webbing itself has a load rating of 15,000 lbs 💀
I'm just a little bit scared now lol
I'm also sure @bureau-of-mines is going to force me to make some unholy harnesses out of it now if he wasn't already before 🐕‍🦺🪡🐐

Blancpain
Fifty Fathoms Milspec 1 A stainless steel automatic wristwatch with humidity indicator Circa 1968
Blancpain's Fifty Fathoms was launched in 1953 and has since defined the specifications and qualities of the modern diving watch. Made at the request of the French Navy, Captain Robert Maloubier and Lieutenant Claude Riffaud provided technical specifications for a watch designed for combat divers. The design revolutionized the unidirectional bezel, which ensured divers could not inadvertently turn the bezel backwards thus threatening their air supply. Blancpain added their own critical feature, a humidity indicator which showed blue if the air in the case was dry. If water penetrated the case, the indicator would turn pink as a warning to the diver. Fifty Fathoms was named after the British measurement of 50 fathoms, or approximately 91.45 meters, considered the maximum depth which a diver could achieve with the oxygen mixture available at the time.
The present Milspec watch was modeled under the same military grade specifications but for civilian use.
