Finding your tactical needs around Metro Manila is easy because of places like Makati Cinema Square and Krame E-Arcade, and other places, where there a so many options in one building/place/area. But for us that are in Mindanao, there is no such place. So this prompted me to compile a list of places where I (personally) know you can get your TactiCooL fixes for your TactiCooL cravings! Enjoy!

5.) QualiTactical
Next to McDo Bolton na kaharap ni Jollibee Bolton.
From belts, to flashlights, to knives, to plate carriers, to tactical helmets, to holsters, to mag pouches. They have the widest array of choices so far among the shops I have visited within the city. Last time I talked to the owner on a chance meeting in his shop, he informed me that he is opening a shop/branch in Tagum City. So do watch out for it Tagum peeps!
Tip: Hirap lang ang parking so mag side trip ka muna sa sa Jollibee or McDo Bolton kunwari kain ka then get your TactiCooL fix na! Good luck!
Disclaimer: Only QualiTactical allowed me to take photos of their shop for this post. All of the other shops advised me that its against their company policies or they still need to get an approval from the management and since I started working on this article dated December 22, 2017 up to the posting of this (more than 3 months later), I never received that approval.
