ResQ-Pak
Best Camping Gear Reviews and Police Equipment Reviews recently had the opportunity to review a first aid product. The product is called ResQ-Pak and it is an emergency trauma kit. Many police officers will find the ResQ-Pak handly in case of major trauma scenes. What's great about the ResQ-Pak's are they are very compact allowing a police officer or anybody for that matter to always carry one.
When it comes to camping gear, ResQ-Pak makes an emergency trauma kit that is perfect for fishing, hunting, or any outdoors activity. The kit includes the following:
25g Quik–Clot® Sport™
Tegaderm 2 3/8" x 2 3/4" dressing
5" x 9" ABD pad
4" x 75" roll bandage
40" x 40" x 56" triangular bandage
two sets 4" x 3" cover sponges
combat medic tape
non-latex gloves
rescue whistle
mylar blanket
So how does ResQ-Pak work? With all the supplies in one easy to get package you have what you need at your hands. When a person comes upon or gets a traumatic injury, he or she can use the Quik-Clot to stop the bleeding. In the camping gear kit, one would hold the Quik-Clot firmly to the injury for at least 5 minutes while the blood clots. Then using the other supplies bandage it up and get medical treatment as soon as possible.
ResQ-Pak is a great kit to always have with you. You never know when you are going to come across an injured hiker and the ResQ-Pak can save their life!
For ordering information check out the ResQ-Pak review on the police gear site.

Online Camping Gear Stores
More and more camping gear stores are turing to online to do business. This is a great way for them to keep overhead costs down. All they need is a good eCommerce hosting plan and a little sweat equity to make a good online store. Best Camping Gear Reviews is very knowledgable in the web hosting industry and wants to pass on some things before you go and make an online camping gear purchase.
1) Make sure you are dealing with a reptuable company. Anybody can set up an affiliate program with a camping gear manufacturer but not everybody can run an honest business. The problem you have with affilate programs is that the website you are ordering from is only a middle man, they aren't the ones that are going to be helping you with your problems. For example, if you buy one of the Kelty tents through an affiliate program and the tent is defected. You really think the middle man is going to care about your problems? NO! They are probably selling Callaway X22 irons also. Stick to big name camping gear stores such as REI or Cabelas and you won't have any problems.
2) If you do order online from a smaller outdoor gear store, make sure that they are running secure eCommerce websites. The way you can tell this is if they have notifications on thier website informing you of this. Typically the best shopping carts will be secured so you won't have a problem. If the site is not secure, you risk having your identity stolen.
3) Finally, check out thier return policy. I know it is strange, but some camping equipment stores that have both online and retail stores won't allow online purchases to be returned at the retail store.
Buying from an online camping gear store can save you some money and time, if you know how to conduct online transactions! Good luck and we will see you at the campground!

Glock guns
Holy cow has it been some time since I last blogged about camping gear! I'm really sorry. The camping gear site has taken off and I have been getting requests from some camping equipment manufacturers to turn it into an online camping gear store. Not to sure if I want to have set up an e-commerce site and deal with sales. Kinda just like freely writing about outdoor gear! If I do though, I have already found a great cheap web hosting company that will host it for me, HostMonster. They have everything you could want if you were thinking of starting an online camping gear store!
Today's camping gear product that I am going to talk about could be considered more of police gear. It's the Glock handguns. The reason why I am going to talk about the Glock handguns is because campers sometimes carry guns with them for their protection. They are even popular for hunting.
Glock guns are some of the best handguns made. There are Glock 40 s, Glock 9mm handguns, and even baby Glocks! Baby Glocks are not for babies, they are smaller versions of the Glock guns. Glock guns are very accurate and reliable. Best Camping Gear Reviews owns a Glock 27 and Glock 22. They have few pieces to them so there is a less chance of breaking. What are the prices of Glock guns? They range from about $400 to $600 depending on the sights you get. If you are in the market for a new handgun, definately check out the Glock guns! They can be found at almost all police supply stores.

Discount camping gear
Best Camping Gear Reviews gets asked a lot about how to find discount camping gear or used camping gear. While both types of camp gear are similar because they are less than the more expensive camping gear, they are different topics. In today’s Best Camping Gear Reviews article, we are going to discuss ways that you can find discount camping gear.
We all know how expensive camping gear can be. Take a look at the Kelty camping tents. While they are one of the best camping tents, they are also on the high side of the price range. With our three secret tips on how to find discount camping gear, you might be able to find a cheap Kelty tent!
Best Camping Gear Reviews 3 tips to finding discount camping gear:
1) Check your local advertisements for camping gear specials. In today’s economy most businesses are hurting for sales. The camping gear stores are no different. I look in the Sunday advertisements and always find great deals on camping gear. The other day, I found Coleman coolers for 30% off! That’s a great discount camping gear price.
2) Look in the “bargain basement” at your local camping gear stores. A lot of times you can find last years camping gear or outdoor clothing at a huge discounted price. Is there really a big difference between last years Sierra Designs sleeping bags and this years? Probably not.
3) Shop on line. There are a lot of good camping gear stores that strictly sell on line. This keeps their overhead costs down and keeps their prices cheaper. A lot of times you might have to pay a small shipping fee, but you avoid the sales tax most of the time. Don’t worry about returns because almost every reputable online camping gear store accepts returns without problems.
We hope that these 3 tips on how to find discount camping gear is helpful to you!
