My 2c on emergensy 72 hour builds. First mistake we all do, when building such a bag, is that we build it, as if we are going for vacation or camping.... That leads to a very heavy pack, that will work the exact opposite way, actually when we really need it. You might have to run, you might have to be in tight spaces! You might have to go long distances. Also, a backpack with all that stuff hanging in the outside, will be another serious problem, either if you pass by a column, a tight space, or in the woods, all these extra stuff hanging in the outside, will make you STUCK or fall, or be ripped off the bag. Also it makes it easy, for someone to grab you. There are so many more troubles, you can get into. All the backpacks, are designed to carry a specific ammount of weight, that also leads, to another problem, which is that you wont go far, with all that weight, at least the bag will not help if it's over weighted. You want to carry 65lt, buy a 75LT backpack, you want to carry 50lt, don't buy a 30lt, get it? The 2 items, you have to spent the most money, is the backpack and the knife. 5.11 or any other made in China , is a NO NO. Around 35 to 45lt backpacks,are the most ideal size. Lastly, you have to go TEST YOUR GEAR, to see how it works and most importantly, to find out, what you are going to get rid off to make the bag, lighter, for you to be more flexible while moving. Mors, used to say, the less you know, the more you carry.. Hope this helps.
With the stuff falling/being ripped off the bag, with this specific bag (I happen to own it) it is very durable and will probably last longer then I will (I'm only 18) I've never had anything fall off or get ripped no matter what I've snagged it on, definitely still possible but hard to do. Also this being a 45lt pack it can definitely be turned into maybe even 65/70lt with how much you can attach to it
If you have to bug out, think now, about where you would go. Find out how far that distance is and start trying to walk that distance with your gear. Start small, and work your way up. Also start doing some overnights with just your bug out gear and see what you use a lot and what you don't. Along the way you will naturally start dropping some of the items/weight to only what you need. Especially when you start understanding that ounces=pounds and pounds equal pain. A good starting point with bug out bag equipment is starting from a backpacking perspective, like the big three for instance, which is your pack, sleeping system, and tent/shelter. When I do long distance hiking, an average of 20 miles a day, my pack with food and water will weight about 35-40 lbs max. If you know your going to be carryings things for someone else, I would encourage you to just build a separate kit for them. Hope it helps.
Thankfully I would be able to head home I live far enough out in the middle of nowhere to feel safe. With neighbors who are family so there's that support structure for each other. About a six mile walk home, so I just have a get home bag.
Only problem I see is everything looks new. Never tested!! Test, test, and test some more !! But I love the setup. Maybe a little heavy, but still good stuff! Stay safe. Hope you never need it!!
Testing is very important. I carried a 1 kilo folding shovel, and just assumed it would be fine. I took it out and used it and found that it the blade would not stay in place. I went home, put a large washer with the thin one it had and now it works fine. Had it happened in the bush and I couldn't find a large washer the shovel would have been practically worthless. There were several other things too that I was using that I made better such as my new sil/nylon. I added extra grommets to that and also to my two sleeping pads that I use with my hammock. Now I can use one without it sliding around under me because it is tied to my hammock. There's more too, but the important thing is use your gear.
It's so interesting to read all these comments about you don't need this or that. So good to know there are so many people that can run out the door with a toothpick and a butter knife and survive for months on end on one bag of Lay's potato chips.
I'm a gear junkie as well u have taken alot of time money and spent many hours watching and researching gear it shows I subbed always nice to see what other people have in there bags question was how does your bag stack up I think I'd give u a run for your money great couple of video about your bag👍❤️🇺🇸
@@idahoprepper yes i do have one, its an inch bag setup because in my mind im not leaving unless I'm not coming back lol. Its a longer video but I go over things pretty well with better explanations, for longer videos I like to turn the speed up to 1.25x or 1.5x so they don't take as long 🤣 inch bag video: ua-cam.com/video/kT4GSKXm6fA/v-deo.html
@@alphaomegasurvivalsupply6548 Im thinking the Tops Steel Eagle the size for any tasks short an axe won't accomplish and the top teeth are intriguing for Paracord projects with wood. They are somewhat sold-out everywhere as of right now in most places unless I want to spend over $200. I'll be patient but its hard when trying to get a good knife collection going haha.
@@laceyjoshanderson4104 that is true lol, in the short time you should try a condor bushcraft parang it is a bad mother trucker lol and it won't blow your budget
Just found your channel, subscribed. I have the same bag and carry very similar equipment. I have all my stuff organized in the vanquest sticky pouches. Mine is running at about 33LBS with no water
Building a backoutbag is one thing, eating the bait, from all the marketing traps to buy unnesacary gear, that you will never use, is another. That's going for ALL of us including me. I wouldn't have ever known I was right on this, if I hadn't done these mistakes. I bet you won't reach more than a half mile distance, before you drop more than half of the unessecary stuff you carry there son. Go for a camping trip to test this bag, I'm sure, you will find out, tha no matter how many days you stay camping, you will not ever need or use, 70% of the gear you carry. We make them richer and we feel ready or safe or both, but only thing we do, is making them richer and us poorer. That's the only truth.
try to make a 72hrs bag with some underwear sox t-shirt some cloth to keep you warm dry food for 3 to 4 days one or 2 basic weapon like a hand gun shotgun or a rifle or your AR a little stash of ammo take what you prefere , water canteen map compass a fire kit sewing for you cloth make your self a good medical kit 2 flashlight a frontal flashlight and a other one you can hold a tarp with a puncho linner to keep you warm in night , water filter saw to cut wood or a axe some paracord with other cord for other stuff need a swiss knife with a fulltang knife it basic stuff to survival in wood
Whats the point of packing that big ass bag that u cant carry like u alrdy said bug out bag is to grab and go not grab go through than go like dude said above hobbie that u have no idea how to use
Im not telling you what to do but this is my suggestion. You should take off the 3% patch off, especially right now after what happened at the capital.
Definitely not bad advice, alot of tactics need to be changed due to the changing climate. Luckily in my area it really shouldn't be a problem, but at this point hard to tell who can truly be trusted.
I hear what everybody is saying about weight and shit, and yes you will drop some stuff you'll find out you dont need. But you will get used to the weight. Fuck these haters. But yeah test your shit out. Good luck out there.
41 pounds is not that heavy, I am 34 years old, 141 pounds and can easily carry 41 lbs no problem. It all comes down to your capabilities, and knowing yourself. No one should ever say it tell anyone something is to heavy or they shouldn't be carrying something..

Sorry to say, but I was grining and laughing my way through this. No shelter, no clothes, no food (except for some bars), 100 knifes and and flashlights, 1/3 of the bag containing a fire kit. What the actual fuck? This must be the most gear freak, romanticized bug out bag Ive yet to come across. Nah, dude, back to the drawing board.
You should watch part 2, all of that is in there besides clothes which I keep in a different bag in the car, because I'm always around my car and if I need to leave it just grab the other bag.
u weren't kidding in the beginning of the video when u said u have quality gear. I don't know how many BOB videos I've seen where the person has a Shit knife, flashlight & multi tool inside a Shit backpack. BTW, those sting & bite kites are garbage. once an insect or bug bites or stings u, that venom is in ur blood or tissue. there's NO extracting it out.
Ya ive spent a lot of time and money on it all but I think it's worth it. I've heard arguments going both ways about the bite kit and both make sense, luckily I haven't had to use it to find out who is right lol.
Bags a bit over kill.. the more u carry the less u usually know.. but ur gd voice made it hard to watch all of it let alone the 2 nd part of ur vid.. ur a huge slow target but thanx for showing us the goodies we can get from u lol
At the beginning of the vid I say that this is the max load out and most wouldn't be carried, as for defense items they were not pictured. Since this vid the bag has changed alot and I will post an update vid soon thanks for watching.
@@alphaomegasurvivalsupply6548 don't mind me, just being a jerk... Gear is only good if you can carry it and have a long term place to go... Especially if you don't have the skill sets or training to walk out into the wilderness... Get a hand pump water filter, waterproof way to stay warm without fire, and food. You wouldn't be able to travel more than 8 miles a day with that pack without starving to death in less than a month... Reality is different than the imagination... I am mean, but I am trying to be helpful too... When I was a kid I would go out into the Appalachian mountains for up to a month with nothing but a knife and some parachord. It was hell and I was tougher than nails. I had learned a lot before I ever went out. I suggest you see how hard it is and do a trial run for a week and see how it goes. You will come back better prepared.
