5. Amazon — 8x30mm Military Marine Binoculars, $194.95
Your Editor uses these Steiner 8×30 binoculars. For most duties, they work great. They are compact, light-weight (18 oz.) and easy to hold. The best feature is the focusing system. Once you adjust each eyepiece for your eyes, everything from about 25 yards to infinity is in focus — honest. The $194.95 price at Amazon.com is $30-$50 less than you’ll pay at other vendors. NOTE: If you want better dawn/dusk low-light performance, spend more money on premium binoculars. But for basic daylight duties, these will do the job. NOTE: Steiner offers a 10x50mm version, but the 8x30mm is HALF the weight. Verfified Purchaser Review: “I bought these binoculars for a recent hunting trip. They are…very clear at any range. I have very different eyes, one is 20/200, the other is nearly perfect, 20/30. The sports auto-focus on this is GREAT. Once I set them for my eyes, they were perfect.”
6. Amazon — FIXR Carabiner 20-in-1 Multi-Tool, $2.92
Cool Tool. This top-selling little carabiner-style FIXR multi-tool performs 20 different functions — all for under $3.00!

7. Monmouth Reloading — 1000 Lake City 5.56 Cases, $68.95
1000 pieces of Lake City brass for under seventy bucks? Yep, that’s a deal and a half. Monmouth Reloading is selling genuine, once-fired Lake City 5.56x45mm brass, thick-walled and sourced direct from the U.S. Military. Monmouth reports: “Our current stock of Lake City 5.56 looks to be all newer year Lake City head stamp but may contain a small percentage of other NATO headstamps. Lake City is a popular, reliable brass, normally capable of many reloads.” Monmouth includes 1% overage to account for any damaged brass. NOTE: Brass has crimped primers, so the pockets will need to be reamed or swaged prior to reloading.
8. CDNN — Black & Decker ANSI Z87.1 Safety Glasses, $1.99
At this price (just $1.99 per unit), you can afford to buy a dozen or more of these Black & Decker tinted safety glasses and outfit friends and family. With tinted, ANSI Z87.1-rated plastic lenses, these safety glasses work well in bright summer conditions. You can also use them for any other outdoor activities that call for eye protection (such as mountain biking) — always good to have a few as spares.
