On this episode of the BTO Podcast, we sit down with Chris and Maz from Blue Force Gear. Chris shares how his interest in guns started as a kid in Japan discovering airsoft, leading him to join the Army and spend his career in the 75th Ranger Regiment.

Michael "Maz" Masseria talks about growing up around Special Forces, joining as an 18X, and serving as a Ranger sniper. They discuss how the tactical gear world has rapidly advanced thanks to innovations from the commercial market, not just the military.

Chris and Maz also give a behind-the-scenes look at Blue Force Gear's operations and company culture. Chris explains how they are focused on their 20th anniversary at SHOT Show 2024 rather than new products. But they tease a few new items in development.

The conversation covers various topics including civilian training, revolvers, knives, cold weather gear, etc. Please tune in to hear their entertaining stories and thoughts on the state of the tactical industry.
