I meant what gun did u modify for this i realized I wasn't very clear lol

@@alexhoffmann3720 It's the RIA VRF14

He protects.

Good points! And yeah, the camo netting came after doing a decent amount of kayak-camping where you might have to leave your stuff unattended for an extended period of time. Always feels better knowing your keys and important stuff are tucked away out of sight,

Thanks for the comment!

I appreciate the input. This upper has always been just a little more inaccurate than I thought it should be, even as a cheap option. But hearing those little fragments jingle out of my suppressor at the end of the day was absolutely heartbreaking. I may just put a flash can or linear comp on it and call it a wash.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! Fresh firing pins and cleaning the firing pin channels didn't solve my issue.

Why so?

@@entryleveltactics because redundancy is very important for any survival, emergency, bug out, get home kits

@@D2G10 I get that. I agree that redundancy is important for any extended survival or preparedness plan, but in my eyes a "get home bag" is better served by being as light as possible while covering the immediate basics. I do appreciate the comment and input!

@@entryleveltactics I certainly disagree. It might take 7-8 hours to get home. Also you might not be alone but with someone like your GF. If you really want you save on weight you can always take the extra stuff out and leave in the car or throw it away or whatever.

@@D2G10 What items would you carry spares of?

The covers still cause a little bit of warping and reduce the light transfer. Like wearing sunglasses on your sunglasses. You pretty much just use the covers for storage. Clear covers are good because you CAN still use the optic while they are closed, like in an emergency, but popping them open still gives you a better picture through the optic.

@@entryleveltactics 👍🏻 I gotcha

Still waiting on them to get graded

I hope I'm doing it right!

Very nice

Is thar a magnifier behind red dot?? Don't need that on 300BO. caliber is meant for CQB

🤣 Sometimes life imitates art! Thanks for the comment

There are a lot of people out there who love their Stoeger coach guns, but I would definitely have preferred if it ran good out of the box.

Solid kit. It's hard to say if urban or rural is "easier" since each has their own concerns. Urban may leave you walking through a bad part of town, rural may have you trekking a longer distance and maybe through an area where wildlife is a concern. The most annoying part of thinking about any grid down / collapse situation is that you're still going to have to pay your mortgage! lol

@@entryleveltactics lol for sure! If we’re gonna get EMP’d or anything then do it the right way and wipe out all evidence of my debt 😂🤣😂. But yeah, I don’t live in a huge city, but big enough to where I’ll have to evade away from potentially dangerous situations. I would mainly stay on back roads off of the main road as much as possible. I also don’t look “tacticool”. I have an Eberlestock Switchblade pack in blue color. I chose the color because it isn’t tactical looking and it doesn’t have molle and stuff everywhere. I’ll try to blend in. I also don’t wear tactical looking clothing. But you’re 100% correct that more urban environments come with their own challenges.

I've got a CPS and a set of cheap harbor freight tools in the toolbox. You know how these older trucks can be! For sake of the video, I just put my Hydra in the No Start position to get the crank no start condition for the video. Unfortunately, the truck is having issues with the shift solenoids in the transmission, so I appreciate the comment and the engagement!

Yep. There are times where redundancy is good and times when redundancy is unnecessary. I appreciate your comment; it really helps!

Thanks for the input. I haven't figured it out yet, but when I do, I'll post an update!

Thanks for the kind words!

If I had the choice, I would run both. But if I was forced to have only one, I would pick a nice light in the pocket. Definitely a training issue either way, but if you're walking the dog at night or changing a tire in the dark, a handheld will serve you better than pulling your pistol. LOL. I appreciate the comment.

@@entryleveltactics Definitely. You're welcome. I have a small flashlight that fits in my pocket and has a clip. It's pretty bright too.

I've been lazy and haven't got this resolved yet. Stoeger has a pretty good reputation, but are still decidedly entry-level, so issues aren't exactly rare. I think if you have the time to buy one and run it hard before you actually "need" it for hunting or a competition, you're good. If you want to spend a little more money, the SASS guys are who I would ask for a recommendation on an out of the box competition coach gun. I've handled a few CZs that seemed solid.

@@entryleveltactics Thank you for responding to my post. I'm looking for one for home protection and to just have it. I will check it out. I will look forward to your future videos. Thanks.

@@thomastommy1192 Thanks man! Take care!

I appreciate the comment! And same to you and yours! A 47 mile hike as a worst case scenario would require a little more sustainment than someone doing 5 or 10 miles back to cell service. Cheers!

Thanks for the kind words! The comments really help!

Thanks for the kind words!

I'd agree that there are a ton of similarities.

🤣 it's easy to keep it together when you're playing pretend. But the transmission in the truck went out like 3 days after making this video, and I can guarantee you it was a different reaction.

Yeah, you can spend all day figuring out where you want to spend you ounces or pounds. The plan is to get home, like I said in the video, but if you end up truly in a downpour or storm, you're going to have to make the call if you want to slog home or wait it out. If you have cover, you have the option to wait it out. If you don't have over, you don't have that option. It all sounds silly until you need to reclaim some limbs or take a knee on a hiking trail. I appreciate the input.

You can use a Poncho, also as a Tarp. Use Rubber Lines with Hocks, and you can put up in a few Time! I used these in in the Military!

@@asconajuenger Yep, it's a good idea to bring things that have a double-function. I prefer to opt for a super cheap poncho + a lightweight rain fly, but a nicer poncho can definitely serve as a temporary shelter.

That sounds like a well thought out kit.

@@entryleveltactics thnx, ive bin working on it for years. I should say i also walked with it 55km/31miles in one day, only with extra water... Changed the bag a few times. Warrior assault systems helmet cergo pack, tasmanian tiger survival pack and now im carrying the Savotta Kahakka 15. I have to say im pleased with bag... Great waterresistan without a raincover. 1000d cordura and the folding side pouchz are easy to use. I know people talk a lot over the stuff inside the bag, but a good bag is very important. You need to train with it.

@@Raventommm Yea, actually using your stuff is as important as having it. I run an older Osprey pack when I actually go camping, but for something that just sits in the trunk of the car, it's hard to justify anything other than whatever old bookbag youve got lying around.

Sounds like a missing stanza from "Goodbye Earl."

@@entryleveltactics The End Of Earl .

I truly appreciate the sub and the comment!

@@entryleveltactics Oh, you're welcome, my friend.

A silcock key is not something I have considered. Hopefully you'll be well on your way to the house before you have to procure water via someone's spigot. Realistically, if I'm in a place where there are structures and people, I'd probably just ask to borrow a cell phone to call for a ride.

Great suggestion. I keep one in my truck and my wife’s van. I’m always surprised at how many people don’t think about having one so you can get water from a gas station or some other building. A lot businesses don’t have handles on their spigots outside.

@@entryleveltactics Around here in most rural areas the only resources there are are in the vast industrial complexes dotted throughout the countryside, some can take a good while to cross on foot, and there is nothing else around out there. 3 am you are on your own no one is going to open a door, in the towns its like a ghost town, there are a few lakes and ponds along the way but most are on private land. maybe my exercises are unique, but in my neck of the woods the water is behind little steal doors. My last few rucks i stopped at the fire station to fill up and i needed my silcock to get at the water. 100% of new construction in this area includes commercial wall hydrant boxes. The rest of the country is sure to follow. its already taking hold in the inner city and most urban areas. i see it this way i am already vulnerable i don't really want to talk to people, i try to remain grey man, i keep my head down mind my business and get to where i need to be.

@@mkellydixon Correct, agreed, its either commercial governmental or rural in between towns and townships. if you are on foot, you either need to carry resources or have the tools to access them. My get home bag has much of the same items in it as my bug out bag does with a few minor substitutions.

@@UrbCrafter That's a fair point

How so?

Footwear definitely makes a difference! I did have on shoes for this video, but I actually hate flip-flops, so if I'm going somewhere where flip flops or sandals make sense (kayaking, the beach, etc) I always toss a pair of decent shoes in the bag. I personally like the Altama Maritime OTB mid-rise shoes. They pack pretty flat and offer passable support for shorter hikes.

Hiking boots is not a real thing. They are a marketing ploy. Boots and shoes may ber marketed as "hiking" footwear, but they are simply boots and shoes.

Thanks for the comment! It really helps.

Thanks, man! I genuinely appreciate the commend and sub!

Thanks for the comment! I agree that a GPS would be a great addition anytime you know you're going off the beaten path. When I'm feeling outdoorsy, I typically wear a Garmin watch that has some light GPS/Map functions, but I've been looking into the In-Reach or In-Reach minis for some of that more robust handheld GPS functionality.

@@entryleveltactics Right now I'm still using my old Garmin eTrex Venture, but I'm currently saving up for a Garmin 67i.

@@scenicdriveways6708 The Garmin 67i is a proper grown up GPS

I appreciate the comment. And that's very true. It's always good to see what other people remembered that you may have overlooked. Especially on the smaller channels where you know they aren't sponsored and everything they have is something they use and spent their own money on.

@@entryleveltactics These videos always remind me I need to set-up / update my kit. Items good enough to get back to the house, but not so nice that I'd lose a lot if it was stolen. I like your approach to having things to increase and decrease visibility. One item I'd recommend is a Sillcock key - you can use it to turn on a faucet at a business that doesn't have a handle. If you can get water without having to filter it, it's faster and less risky. Again, I like how you're not duplicating what you EDC. A local map, old school, for your immediate/daily area would also be handy, light, and doesn't require any signal.

@@matthewschulz9592 That's true. A little compass and a map of some local roads and highways is a low tech way to make sure you keep your bearings. It's one thing to make a wrong turn in a car; it's another to hike an hour in the wrong direction.

I do have a lockpick set, but have not spent any time with it, unfortunately. I saw my boss get locked out of a utility closet one time and he just popped out a pick set and got in really quick. I went home and ordered a set that same day! lol

@@donjohn1620 The lockpicking side of UA-cam is a rabbit hole I've fallen down before. Definitely a useful skill. And I genuinely appreciate the comments!

And in most States a lockpick set constitutes burglary tools which are illegal...some get home bag if it gets you in Jail instead....SMH

@@jeffanon1772 That's also true. You've got to have a pretty decent response ready if you get caught siphoning water with a bag full of tools and lockpicks! lol

@@entryleveltactics amazing how soooo many people's concept of "bugging out" consists solely of running off into the woods...the late great survival expert Mel Tappen referred to that notion as "playing Batman in the boondocks"....

Thanks man! And thanks for the comment!

For sure a small compass would be a decent add. I keep a Bic lighter in the rotation for fire duties.

Sunscreen isn't necessary if you dress appropriate

Yea, there's a chance that it would have smoothed out with enough rounds, but the Larue MBT is a rockstar, especially at ~$80

@@entryleveltactics I’ve cleaned up stock triggers before and it takes quite a bit of time to get it right, I use polishing stones to get it square, flat and highly polished. So for $80 it may be a better option, also consider using some quality springs in there, maybe Wolf has some good options to get you down to around 3.5-4 pounds.

Olight still hasn't quite earned my money yet. The stories of them failing and catching fire has me hesitant.

That is a great point. I've actually been considering adding some pepper spray to the rotation. James Reeves speaks highly of the POM spray that you can get on Amazon, so that's what I'm considering. And you're right--there's a huge leap between pepper spraying a loose, aggressive dog vs having to use a firearm.
