How you’re not lined up in the same structure as Lucas, or Garand Thumb, or Ashlei Maddox, I have no idea. You’re a wonderful addition to this hobby. Thank you.
TacticoolGirl Friend simply isn't as famous yet as the other gun / gun gear reviwers. For sure she is a lot easier on the eyes and more fun and enjoyable to watch. Love how she leads in her videos with footage of her training. Shows she does have a certain level of advanced training and definitely practices her skills and knows what she is talking about.
@@dinosaurstwice4959 Anyone different to an Auth right seems leftist, anyone different to Auth Left seems right, when plenty of us all don’t reside in either categories. So it could be that, but I don’t think that’s fully it either. Ashlei is anarchist like some others of us in the hobby and does pretty well with reception.
Tacticool Girlfriend is still better equipped than my country's military. The arsenal: Here's a 4 part camo uniform in at least 3 different patterns and always varying states of sunbleach, a scratched up rifle from the 90's, a dented helmet from the 80's, (if you get promoted you get a pistol with bakelite grips from the 70's), knock off ALICE webbing from the late 60's, a gas mask and two pairs of boots made from mystery leather. Also the arsenal: Body armor? What, are you a knight? Would you like a lance too?

Off the top of my head I personally do NOT recommend: TRex Arms/Lucas Botkin, IV8888, Military Arms Channel, Taran Tactical, or Warrior Poet Society.

Just found your channel and I’m an instant fan! I particularly loved the episode on suicide prevention. I loved that you mentioned pepper spray as part of your carry. Are you considering doing some on nonviolent conflict resolution? Or perhaps learning about interpersonal intelligence or working to controlling one’s temper? I know those are pretty soft for a channel like this but just asking. Keep up the great work! Thank you 😊
Thanks! Those are extremely important topics but I don't feel like I'm qualified enough to speak on that in any authority, but I may have a guest in some point in the future to help present that info.
IMO OC agents are good. Sometimes, people are being stupid shits, you can't neither disengage freely nor make a good approach for effective melee, but still their hostile idiocy doesn't quite legally warrant lethal force. That's when the OC gets busted out. 9/10 times they disengage or make a dramatic scene over their eyelids swelling and nose flooding with mucous - letting you GTFO or apply restraint/KO with less risk. If they're mad enough or taking PCP, they might draw something lethal and try to use it, but their swelling eyes and noses would mean they have hard time making a connect. by then you have a better time and chance for taking that good shot that won't hit bystanders or sensitive objects. In short, OC can help obviate the need for an ass whooping or a shooting, and even if it deteriorates to either, it gives you a great leg up to do so. OC is an option when a square ass kicking isn't feasible. Whether you're a citizen or in public service, OC saves lives and lawyer fees. Still, as Papa Plaid says, everything are just tools. You're the weapon. So please, seek training if you want to add new tools to your daily kit. OC can hit you too esp in high winds.
@@TacticoolGirlfriend oh guest spot would be great. I think a good "meet in the middle" point could be general 'De-Escalation' which is a topic that a lot of firearm content tends to handwave or mention in passing
Thanks for pointing me to Hevalti Tactical (your chest rig video)- I ordered his dump pouch that allows you to nest a mag pouch within it, and it is a pretty neat idea. Love seeing more boutique nylon companies creating awesome stuff.
I had to watch that intro another two times after finishing the video. Very nice! One thing I note on mid ride paddles, I'm 6'2" and too many pounds (for now), the low ride is much more comfortable and keeps the holster from riding on my hip bone. I would expect mid ride is probably just right for the vast majority though.
Great video. Please keep it up. Very cool to see gear and shooting tips from a different point of view. Never thought of the battle belt as first line before but it makes sense. Hope to see more from you
I don't have a gun in my possession and I'm not against owning one but I am very glad their are leftists who are experts at handling arms and teaching others.
Awesome Into (first 2 minutes and 40 sec) is a great mini-movie in itself! Great views. And following that a great in formative video on your gunfighter belt (a.k.a. is some circles as a "battle belt" or "war belt") setup.
I just ordered the new Kore Essentials battle belt. Now I have to do some research before I order rifle and pistol magazine pouches and I also have to get a medical kit. I have a Tier1Concealed Axis Elite appendix holster and their quality is top notch so I will be ordering another holster from them for my battle belt.
Got me thinking. Has she done a video on foot ware? I'm curious what shoes she uses. I took her tip on wool socks and uhhh... I can't do any other sock now lol. Wool does it for me. I run around all day doing crap so these have really helped me out. Especially since I live in swampy texas where water often gets into your shoes to a degree. Curious what kind of shoes she's into. Also... I need new shoes soon so that's why I was curious haha.
Liked and subscribed. Arrived here via your interview with @pewpewtactical and you did not disappoint. I would love a Safariland holster for my fun gun rig, but they don't have any shells for the Springfield XDM Elite Tactical OSP as yet. I'll be back to watch more videos - thanks!
@@soyborne.bornmadeandundone1342 I mean I assume she's gonna do a helm vid at some point anyway so she could slip it into there for us non follicle challenged folks :P haha. I assume it's just a standard military type low bun but idk her hair looked so cute xD
That looks like a maxpedition grimlock caribiner. They're very handy to have on a backpack for lashing as well. And to be a total shill, the roly poly dump pouch is also a good option but that blueforce looks faster
I love a lot of 90’s stuff but drop legs really should stay there LOL! Reviews that people do of stuff they buy themselves are my favorite! There is less and less of that! Great video
On IFAKs: I like a split kit setup. Something really thin and minimalist on my belt (TQ, chest seal, celox, shears, coban, NPA). IMO you should be able to drive well in your 1st line gear (belt, or belt + armor.) Everything else goes in or on a pack.
I love the HSGI kit, because I was able to get 2 sleeves, one for each of my belts and transfer the contents between them rather than having to spend money on a whole additional IFAK I've got a 2 piece belt for most of the time, and the Wilder for grab and go so I don't need to worry about a velcro inner belt For the holster I got the VUBL plate, so I could bring my gun up to the highest position when sitting down without it being in the way, and drop it down to a more comfortable position to draw from when standing up.
is it wierd i got the exact setup and gear as you just showed??? the only difference is that i doubled up and added molle attachements to the pistol mags so i can place them directly on my ar mag holders. i then added so cord for added security and to have cordage. my only thing im needing right now is a slight drop on my pistol holster so i can have a better feel and i have a I.C.E knife where the gloves should be. so if i ever get too close i can use my non-dominant hand to access the knife or dominant one any time i want. as for the why not drop leg??? theres a science to that. it causes too much weight on your leg so when you run its very noticable and slows you down. the slight drop is to better clear your pistol if you have body armor on or one of those quick deploy bags. last bit of advice........ change masks.... not saying having one is bad but change it up every week or so with different designs. ads more personality and more color kinda makes it more edgy more than the tacticool black. like you said its not the 90s anymore and its either camo in for some reason or what ever personality you are. im mixed black and tan with my gear and sport a gifted wolfpack designation hellhound which i hate but its a gift.
Thank you so much for the mid ride holster tips especially being another option from me struggling to find a Safariland mid ride holster with one leg strap to accommodate my XD-40 4 inch service pistol which is my main side arm after a couple years of carrying a few Glocks, the 19, 17 and 23 until I finally tried an XD & feel in love with the quality & everything about it over all. Sadly I don’t live in a free state & LA isn’t a gun loving or accepting city for conceal carry as well. Took my over a year to be approved & get my interview leading to my permit. Anyways hopefully Tier 1 has a mid ride one leg strap holster for my XD-40 service cause. Safariland land had me bouncing around seeking other brands building my own custom mid ride.
I'm used to the ALICE and MOLLE gear of the late 90s, that suck, specialy the ALICE; so for me all this look great and seem like a really good improvement on all fields. Also, really good intro; i'd liked it.
I know this seems lame of me to even ask but if anybody has old gear they are willing to get rid of or don’t need? Please contact me. I really want to get into training but can’t really afford it. I just want to be prepared and train to protect my son and wife. Thanks guys and gals. Like always thanks TG. You are a inspiration.
You don't need plate carriers and war belts to protect your family. Wearing this stuff in a crisis is just painting a gigantic target on yourself. I watch this shit for kicks, its cool. But I would not wear this stuff if I thought there was a serious problem. You want to be a grey man, not a honey pot
If you are on a budget, get some knock-off stuff directly from China (e.g. Aliexpress). Will it be "just as good"? Hell no, it will be cheap for a reason. Some of it is pure crap and will fall apart under any form of serious use. But if you pay some attention while shopping and don't just go for the absolute cheapest one, you can get some half decent gear that will get you started. I just took a 2 day course (tactical rifle/pistol, including being dragged over the ground as a simulated casualty a few times) over the weekend with my Aliexpress getup (belt, mag pouches, dump pouch, IFAK pouch, holster, slings). The mag pouches didn't hold up too well (but to be fair, they were like 2 EUR/piece and I already used them for a few years for regular competitive shooting), so now I'm looking for a better replacement. The belt, holster and slings held up great though, for a fraction of the cost of the real deal. Would they do just as well in a professional setting with daily hard use? Probably not. But I'm not a soldier, I'm not even playing one on the weekends (regularly). So if that usecase matches yours, you don't need to spend hundreds on gear that you probably can't afford. Get a complete setup for less than 50 bucks and spend the remaining money on ammo, range time and training. If stuff fails, figure out if you liked the design and it was simply an issue with built quality, or if the design itself was flawed. If you like the design, check out name brand stuff of the same style (it will obviously cost more, but it will most likely then also hold up). Otherwise, try out some other design to see if that works better for you.
@@TacticoolGirlfriend Ugh, I'm gonna be saving up for so damn long for a quality helmet and NODs Damn that whole need to pay for things like housing and such
Hey TCG, are you still using the Tier 1 in this setup? Also, was it the case that the Safariland holster didn't have a P10C model at the time, thus why you mentioned trying the G19 model? Just wanted a little clarification since it seems Safariland has a P10C model now.
Yes, I'm still using the Tier 1 for my CZ, but that's all taken quite a backseat to my Glock 19 that I shoot more often, with which I use my Safariland ALS holster. I'm glad Safariland is now making holsters for the CZ P10C now, but sadly, I don't have any experience with them.
looking to set up my niece for a chest rig and belt. what brand of plate would you recommend with a med size bust? she wants the gear and has tried mine on. anything will help thanks
Sorry I don't know where to ask this question so you'll see it. You're often wearing some solid green pants in a couple of your videos. There are no other colors on them. And it's not the 5.11 leggings. I wanted to get whatever you had because it looked nice.
is that a Alonso Defense version of the belt before they became Ciguera? also GBRS belt and AXL advanced belt are the heat for anyone looking for inner outter belt systems.

You don't need plate carriers and war belts to protect your family. Wearing this stuff in a crisis is just painting a gigantic target on yourself.
I watch this shit for kicks, its cool. But I would not wear this stuff if I thought there was a serious problem. You want to be a grey man, not a honey pot
If you are on a budget, get some knock-off stuff directly from China (e.g. Aliexpress). Will it be "just as good"? Hell no, it will be cheap for a reason. Some of it is pure crap and will fall apart under any form of serious use. But if you pay some attention while shopping and don't just go for the absolute cheapest one, you can get some half decent gear that will get you started.
I just took a 2 day course (tactical rifle/pistol, including being dragged over the ground as a simulated casualty a few times) over the weekend with my Aliexpress getup (belt, mag pouches, dump pouch, IFAK pouch, holster, slings). The mag pouches didn't hold up too well (but to be fair, they were like 2 EUR/piece and I already used them for a few years for regular competitive shooting), so now I'm looking for a better replacement. The belt, holster and slings held up great though, for a fraction of the cost of the real deal. Would they do just as well in a professional setting with daily hard use? Probably not. But I'm not a soldier, I'm not even playing one on the weekends (regularly). So if that usecase matches yours, you don't need to spend hundreds on gear that you probably can't afford. Get a complete setup for less than 50 bucks and spend the remaining money on ammo, range time and training. If stuff fails, figure out if you liked the design and it was simply an issue with built quality, or if the design itself was flawed. If you like the design, check out name brand stuff of the same style (it will obviously cost more, but it will most likely then also hold up). Otherwise, try out some other design to see if that works better for you.
Intro is sooo majestic.
Intro cinematography absolutely spectacular 👍👍
What production quality!!!
Tacticool Girlfriend makes me feel funny (funny as in shame from neglecting training)
Haven't seen much of the helmet yet 🤔
Plans for doing that setup to?
Absolutely will have a vid out on that!
@@TacticoolGirlfriend keep rewatching the intro and we have similar setups.
Can't wait ❤
"we will watch your career with great interest"
@@TacticoolGirlfriend Ugh, I'm gonna be saving up for so damn long for a quality helmet and NODs
Damn that whole need to pay for things like housing and such
I was wondering when you would talk about this. Cool to see you set it up!
Hey TCG, are you still using the Tier 1 in this setup? Also, was it the case that the Safariland holster didn't have a P10C model at the time, thus why you mentioned trying the G19 model? Just wanted a little clarification since it seems Safariland has a P10C model now.
Yes, I'm still using the Tier 1 for my CZ, but that's all taken quite a backseat to my Glock 19 that I shoot more often, with which I use my Safariland ALS holster. I'm glad Safariland is now making holsters for the CZ P10C now, but sadly, I don't have any experience with them.
@@TacticoolGirlfriendTY!
Sees a great video by Tacticool girlfriend, clears my schedule for the next two days in awww of awesomeness
There's something extreme and oddly cool about you and your presentations. I like it.
As always good info, it is definitely important to taylor your gear to you and to your mission.
Another Great video. I'm impressed with your knowledge and implementation. Thank you.
is that a Labrys patch on the helmet? Nice.
Sure is 😉
@@TacticoolGirlfriend god I wish to some day be as cool as you

You're welcome.
You should team up with Garand Thumb on that Time Warriors thing. 👍👍
Something tells me Garand Thumb wouldn't be very respectful.
This was a very helpful video, thanks!
Lovely intro
How do you figure out sizing? Is the sizing bases of off your pants sizing or measure around the waist?
Typically sizing goes off of wherever you're wearing the belt, so your natural waist is usually best.
Anyone knows a shooting pit close to from north bend to snoqualmie, WA?
Great rifle/pistol transitions!
Came here to cleanse my brain from other gun people. Thank you. :)
looking to set up my niece for a chest rig and belt. what brand of plate would you recommend with a med size bust? she wants the gear and has tried mine on. anything will help thanks
I would definitely look into the RMA Female Cut plates.
@@TacticoolGirlfriend copy, thank you.
Great information keep up your great content 👍
Thank you, comprehensive 👍👍
Im curious on what plate carrier she's use in this video? Any idea what the brand is?
That's a Crye SPC.
❤🧡💛💚💙💜🖤
🤎
Can I ask what "Triple Mag Utility Pouch setup" you got there??
That's the Haley Strategic D3CRM.
Yo easy.. I use a drop leg..
I want the video on the garter belt.
Great video!
damn you have some beautiful landscape there
Sorry I don't know where to ask this question so you'll see it. You're often wearing some solid green pants in a couple of your videos. There are no other colors on them. And it's not the 5.11 leggings. I wanted to get whatever you had because it looked nice.
Oh yes, those are the Vertx Fusion LT Stretches.
@@TacticoolGirlfriend Thanks!
Deadpool-esk at 2:40 rockin!
is that a Alonso Defense version of the belt before they became Ciguera? also GBRS belt and AXL advanced belt are the heat for anyone looking for inner outter belt systems.
That is indeed the Alonso version.
@@TacticoolGirlfriend nice! I also have that old one with the hot knifed end before they started bar tacking it
Sorry, I'm late to the belt game. Could I use the emissary EDC belt with the minimalist belt pad? Or do i need to use a 1.75 inch belt with a buckle?
I'd say it's technically possible, but not really ideal.
