Within modern “executive protection,” there are a lot of different varieties of clients, various genres of service fields, and all kinds of agent personalities and backgrounds, etc. But one thing that we all enjoy across the spectrum is gear. In this webinar, we will discuss various types of on-the-job equipment, ranging from go-bags and med kits to attire and holsters. This webinar is free.
This article is aimed to shed some light (pun intended) on my favorite set of options for an EDC flashlight. Let me say this – I buy a lot of gear. I do this in constant search for the next best thing and I like to publish these reviews to save you that expense and T&E time.
