RANGETIME!
My personal range is set up in some private woodland owned by
a friend. It’s set well back from any public access and as it’s part
of their grounds it’s also fenced so nobody can wander in. The
woodland is slightly angled upwards and they’ve allowed me to
dig in a small bermed back stop to ensure that rounds are unable
fly “out of bounds” behind the targets. It gives me a maximum
overall shooting distance of 30m which is just about right in terms
of the .22LR M&P I train with.
There are no real facilities other than an old pub-type bench/
table combo as I purposely keep the range as natural as possible;
this also means that if it’s cold or raining I need to have the right
gear on. With this in mind when I first spoke to Military1st about
the Pentagon gear I had a really clear idea of what I wanted to
look at.
First up of course is what goes next to the skin, and Pentagon
offer a super, well-priced base-layer range; I’ve not tested that as
yet as it really hasn’t been cold enough to warrant it, but I will
tell you that the fit is great and the fabric feels really comfortable
against the skin. What I have worn regularly is the POLO 2.0 shirt;
this is part of Pentagons Tactical Duty Series (T.D) which has a
casual straight fit design with contemporary look and feel. The
In relation to trousers pentagon have a whole range of
different designs, from the classic military/LE look to some
really advanced styles that have obviously be purposely
designed with the “tactical athlete” in mind. I chose a pair of
the HYDRA CLIMBING PANTS. These have been designed to be
strong enough for highly demanding outdoor applications yet
comfortable and stylish for casual everyday use. The trousers
feature two deep hand pockets with reinforced fillets, two
rear pockets with zippers and spacious side cargo pockets for
necessary tools or personal accessories.

They invested in the art of pattern making so they could achieve
the perfect fit for high-intensity activities that also provided high
levels of comfort and an aesthetic which was missing from the
classic military and law enforcement products.
Finally after many years of research and development and
working closely with Military, Police, Fire fighters, Rescue and
Security teams they developed a totally new product series which
came to be known as “Tactical Sportswear™”. This was their
answer to an advanced military clothing and gear concept which
incorporates quality, technology, design and aesthetic all in one
package and their motto to complement all this is “Gear Up!™”
