GEAR, GEAR AND MORE GEAR!
Welcome to another issue of Raider!
Over the last year we’ve been working on the
Raider formula, trying to decide what works
best for your favourite magazine, and one thing
that constantly gets brought up is the quality
of our kit reviews and how often they influence
you when it comes to buying an individual item.
We’ve always taken great pride in regards to
our gear reviews, and we’ve had an impressive
range of testers throughout our years. During
the height of operations in Iraq and Afghanistan
we had a range of elite soldiers from units
such as the Royal Marines and USMC who we’d
purposefully post gear to so they could test it in
the environment it was designed for. Once the
onus of the magazine started to turn a little and
operational duty began to become nigh on non
existent, we brought in a range of new testers,
with some experts on fitness, survival and the
shooting sports brought on board.
With all of that in mind, this month we’ve
really pushed the boat out, doing away with a
number of articles that simply weren’t providing
anything to our readers, instead replacing them
with even more kit reviews!
On top of our normal range of kit reviews,
we’ve got an extra FIVE pages worth this month,
covering two of Raider’s favourite companies
and the gear they have to offer. Turn to pages
24, 26 and 43 to see what they are.
This month also sees the re-introduction of
Everyday Essentials, but not quite as you’ve
seen it before. With the Every Day Carry
market becoming such a large one, Everyday
Essentials will essentially become Every Day
Carry Essentials, highlighting some of the best
EDC items on the market for both our UK and
US readers.
All that, and more this month!
P.S. Don’t forget that Raider is YOUR magazine
just as much as it is ours. Should there be
something you wish to discuss, something you’d
like to suggest or simply something you’d like to
complain about, head over to our Facebook page
- /Raidermag to join the discussion!
