The core recommendation is the use of discrete, RF-shielding pouches to create an extra layer of protection against hacking and unauthorized data access.

This video introduces the GBRS Group x ROKA Barton 2.0 collaboration, focusing on ballistic eyewear. The presenters highlight the comfort, lightweight design, and secure fit of the Barton 2.0 frames, emphasizing their compatibility with ear protection and the option for prescription lenses. The release dates and early access for Patreon members are also detailed.

This video provides expert instruction on applying a Combat Application Tourniquet (CAT) from GBRS Group. Instructors DJ Shipley and Cole Fackler demonstrate the critical steps for achieving arterial occlusion, emphasizing the need to overcome the patient's pain response and ensure complete blood flow cessation. They also detail post-application protocols, stressing that only medical professionals should remove or adjust the tourniquet to prevent severe complications.

This video features DJ Shipley of GBRS Group discussing perceived 'no-go zones' within the U.S. He contrasts the safety of typical American towns with specific urban areas, suggesting police are hesitant to patrol these locations due to their own set of rules. The discussion highlights a cautionary perspective on navigating certain environments within the United States, emphasizing a need for heightened situational awareness.

This video features DJ Shipley of GBRS Group discussing the practical reality of hearing protection in high-stress environments. He highlights that while ear protection is crucial for sustained shooting, it's often not a priority or even considered during immediate tactical engagements for law enforcement or in combat scenarios due to adrenaline and the nature of the threat. The focus is on the situational awareness and immediate action required, often overriding concerns about noise damage in critical moments.

This video from GBRS Group, featuring DJ Shipley, emphasizes the critical need for holistic combat readiness. It stresses that true preparedness involves maintaining a high average of mental, physical, tactical, spiritual, and emotional readiness, rather than excelling in only one area. The core message is to be prepared to fight in your current condition, not an idealized one.

This video demonstrates universal shooting standards, emphasizing under one-second engagement times from high and low ready positions. It showcases drills like the Bill Drill and a 3 Body, 2 Head sequence, highlighting efficient weapon manipulation and accuracy with a custom AR-15 build featuring an EOTech optic and GBRS Hydra Mount.

This guide, based on instruction from DJ Shipley of GBRS Group, details the critical importance of proper posture while wearing body armor.

The instruction highlights techniques for effective protection in tactical scenarios.

This GBRS Group video emphasizes mastering carbine reloads by prioritizing proper technique over raw speed. It highlights the critical importance of a firm, forward support grip (like a C-clamp) for weapon control during CQB and high-stress scenarios, warning against sacrificing fundamentals for fast 'par times'. The correct sequence involves sending the bolt, moving the support hand forward, establishing a solid grip, and then re-acquiring the target.

This video showcases an advanced tactical training session led by an expert with former Tier 1 Special Operations experience. The drill integrates live fire range exercises, high-intensity physical conditioning on an Echo Bike, and close-quarters battle scenarios, all while monitoring biometric data to simulate combat stress and optimize performance.
