I’ve had to use my VBOK before… I was spring bear hunting early April in the mountains and got my truck stuck 7-9 miles off the highway. Tried to dig it out for awhile before I decided to abandon it. Grabbed my rifle and my vbok and took off. Hiked a few hours through the night and called a good buddy when I got to service to come pick me up. My headlamp was the only thing I used from the kit but I was glad to have the items just in case. I could have easily spent the night but it made sense to hike. Glad I was in great shape!
Every time I listen to bug out kit discussion I ALWAYS think to my time backpacking. The best bug out kit is a light weight backpacking setup. Also some of the best way to get a little exercise and experience is backpacking. Maybe over size the bag a bit for extra weapon related stuff, but otherwise almost exactly the same setup for an easy 3-7 days of supplies. Maybe just go a little cheaper on the stuff since the likelihood of use is fairly low. Just checkout the backpacking recommendation lists.
Cautionary tale: I drove into a ditch and got stuck in a crazy, crazy snowstorm. Visibility didn't extend past my hood and I lost the road. The truck went into a drift about 6 feet deep and was stuck. That's when I remembered my VBOK was... on the floor in my office at home because I was updating it. I was with my wife and daughter and completely unprepared. MAKE SURE IT'S IN YOUR VEHICLE AT ALL TIMES! It was a horrible feeling.
I like the diaper bag camo idea. Something to consider, look broke.... don't travel in high threat areas looking like a loot drop. Used dickies jacket, blue jeans, and a diaper bag might get you through unimpeded.
Love these videos Nutn. Thank you for continuing to put them out. A tip for others here that I got from your older BOK video.....if you have a back/foot/ankle/knee/hip problem, buy a small FOLDING LUGGAGE CART. At least while you're on paved roads or smoother trails, you can use it to pull your Kelty Backpack behind you and save some stress on your injured joints. You may not be able to use it at all or very little if you have to move straight into the mountains, but it is worth it's weight in gold if you do need it.
A gray blanket with fast food wrappers, containers and cups safety pined all over it will transform your valuables into a pile of trash in an instant. I call this trash-o-flage.
Don't superglue the clip on the light. Get some heat shrink of the appropriate diameter and shrink it on. Also makes holding the flashlight with your teeth easier.
Old school TNP vehicle camo, baby blankets, one most people don't want to steal a diaper bag; and two, I forgot how much crap you have to lug around for babies, have some baby clothes and a tiny baby bottle with some corn starch and water to throw on the seat, and boom you look like an overwhelmed parent, and a car seat can be modified to become a great fast action container for guns and ammo. Not a lot of people will mess with a car with a baby seat in it. Bonus point for fake French fries in the seat, negative for real French fries in the seat. 👍
I had foot surgery earlier this year. I keep hiking poles in every vehicle. A better choice would be a foldable electric scooter or bike that can still function well even if its battery is dead.
Love it Nut'n ! Going right now to check my truck bag. And yes you need a saw. I'm in the NE and many times I had to drag and cut branches that fell across the road to get through. Looking forward to more of this, Thanks.
I don't know why people have those trucks anymore. I drove one once and you could watch the gas gauge moving down. A cousin had one and he filled up twice a week.
I have experience of bugging out and moving through war areas. Nutn is giving very good advices. Most difficult choice is when it is time to move and in which direction. You Most probably won't get clear information about dangers ahead. Many people died due to haste and lack of leadership in their families. Aĺl tactical staff is not appropriate if you are not in military! Being in some traveling group is not a bad idea. I saw people helping each other and that humanity was surprising in given circumstances. Remember that your big track is not a fortress but good target, bullets and shrapnel peirce it through very well. Weapons is ambiguous: maybe hidden pistol is better choice then AR, you are not on patrol mission! Be safe and good luck to everybody.
Carried a lighter one for about 6 months. kelty packs are awesome,learned from nutn years ago. First man on yt i seen to carry over his bob weights on multi day hikes
Well, let's see....the Communists are about to seize all of Donald Trump's private property based on false charges, they are destroying the NRA right now with a same approach, Biden's DOJ just arrested the FBI whistleblower who exposed him, the United States is being filled with millions of illegal aliens coming from Marxist regimes who are here to overthrow us, the entire mainstream media is working to overthrow America, our military, intelligence agencies and FBI are all run by Marxist revolutionaries who are secretly working with the CCP, our elections are a total sham because electronic fraud voting machines are everywhere, thanks to Globalist GW Bush, and our culture is completely disintegrating because of a successful, long term subversion campaign by the Marxist-Left to destroy us from within. And everyone is pinning their hopes on Trump overcoming the entire voting fraud system to win to save us (sometimes, people can outvote fraud, so it's still worth voting, but it's not looking good). Any questions? Things are going to go haywire in the next 1-2 years. Us older former military dudes like Nutn and I have known about this coming communist takeover before most of you were born. That's why it's all the older guys who started all the original prep channels. People were just too comfortable and let them get too deep into the govt. Now, it's probably too late at the federal govt level. However, VOTE hard in your state and local elections. They STILL matter. Expect a real life "Red Dawn" soon. Bank account seizures, property seizures, IRS raids and audits, phony charges against dissidents, forced labor, death camps, military action using illegal aliens as soldiers against Americans, food blockades to patriot areas, medical aid and supply blockades, drone strikes and FBI raids against patriot leader homes, internet and phone blackouts in patriot areas just before they send the woke/illegal alien military in against us, you name it. It's going to get insanely ugly. Prep hard with food, water purification, meds, solar, bicycle, enduro bike, extra gas and/or diesel, cash, metals, etc. Diversify by keeping your stuff in many different places so that a single raid won't wipe you out. If they steal the next federal elections, expect them to take all three branches. If they do, they will just arrest Clarence Thomas and other SCOTUS judges and replace them with communists. When that happens, they will for sure outlaw the 2nd Amendment and the right to free speech. If a judge says they are wrong, they will just arrest him/her or outright kill them. This is what communists do, and have ALWAYS done. They are crazy, evil and fearless. Oh, and expect them to start paying off your neighbors to turn you in because you bragged about your prepper food and gun collection to them. The ONLY safe haven will be in deep Red State rural/suburban areas where there is a large community of like minded people. Where at least the local and state governments can act as a firewall. They will hold for a time, but will eventually fall after the woke military is brought in to crush them. That's when it's D-Day for everyone and life as we know it will end, potentially forever. Get right with God, get closer with other patriots and your family and friends, and enjoy every day from now on as if it's your last. Hell is marching towards us and time is running out. God bless the Republic while it still stands.... John
I have tons and tons of stuff and flashlights that run on 18650s. An Olight baton variation was my first nice flashlight probably 10 years ago now, and I have steadfastly continued to use them and simply replace them when I destroy them due to my own abuse, or have no issues with warranty in the few cases I've needed it. The main reasons I like them (the only light that fit these criteria when I originally picked them): 1. Fits great in the pocket and the clip works well, form factor is great. 2. Nice area light for working on stuff, great output for size. 3. Great magnetic tailcap that securely holds the light in place (especially under the hood of a car). 4. Standard 18650 was fully compatible with any other 18650 and I could charge them outside of the light so I had zero downtime and stock any type of backup battery I liked. Could also use two CR123a batteries in a pinch, which I kept with my things. NUMBER 4 is NO LONGER APPLICABLE WITH THE LATEST GENERATION. I am SUPER disappointed about this. Didn't realize it at first, until I tried to swap an older standard (still protected) 18650 into it and it DIDN'T WORK. While the newer batteries are still standard size, the light itself now ONLY USES THE DUAL POLARITY TERMINALS ON TOP. I honestly probably would not have bought the new ones had I known this. Even the last generation that used the dual polarity terminals on the normally positive end for the purpose of charging was still internally connected to ground on the other end of the light! They reversed the orientation of the battery and now DO NOT USE THE REGULAR NEGATIVE END TO POWER THE LIGHT INTERNALLY. This may seem like a stupid thing to be so upset about, but my goodness I was ready to cry when I found this out! Not only does this rope you into using only Olight batteries, but it's probably only something that people like us will be upset about. This is the same gripe I have about not being able to swap out my phone batteries so there was no charging downtime like I used to be able to, not to mention having plenty of spares readily available! Now, if I decide to keep using this light in my systems, I have to swap my inventory to only Olight batteries. I could probably ultimately live with that, but because these batteries now have positive and negative in close proximity, they may not work correctly in other lights or items! And that's best case. Worst case, if the internal protection doesn't work properly or they make and break contact, they could be a big fire hazard. Sorry for my rant, but this was very sneaky of Olight now that they developed themselves into such a large and profitable company based on what people like us had to say about them and their use of quality Cree LEDs in addition to my list above. It seems now that they have the masses buying them, they've decided to go the way of the phone and laptop and other "tech" manufacturers. Anyways, that is all. If anyone can recommend a similar light that will still use a standard 18650, please do. Also, thank you nutn for another great video!
Not to sound like a broken record here. But I should add that 99.999999% of the time I charge my flashlights batteries in one of my multiple charging docks, and simply pop in a charged battery. Olight doesn't even offer an external charger anymore! The used to sell the batons with an additional adapter sleeve and two Cr123s and a charging dock for like 80 bucks! I think I bought 3 of those kits, plus an additional gen 2 charging dock later on!
Good stuff. One thing I'm in seeing more of is reviews/recommendations on clothing for hot, cold, and wet weather. Boot reviews would be helpful as well. I've been happy with Merrell but I'm open to trying something new. Given your decades of experience in the outdoors in various environments, I think your insights would definitely be valuable.
I thought I had everything squared away as far as a car bug out kit but never thought to put spare ammo. I put 100 rounds of packing-taped 9mm gold dot into each car , since my main pistol and backup pistol are both 9s. Thanks !
Totally get the fecal matter deal but something that would work really well is one of those diaper bag backpacks. They are generally small but you'd be surprised how much you can fit in there. Wouldn't be able to fit a higher caliber firearm in most but if you did get a 5 inch 300 blackout upper with a law folding adapter you might just be able to make it happen. Just realize if you go this route it would be a minimalist rig which would work pretty well in an urban setting.
Love that Jetfire Nutn! To me, the ultimate tiny backup bugout gun is the Kel Tec P32, at least back when you could still buy the Kel Tec 10 round mags for them. The P32 actually weighs less than the Jetfire, has a safer (but light) double action trigger, is accurate, and with 11 rounds of Underwood Xtreme Defender 55gr +P 32 ACP rounds, you have gun that has over twice the muzzle energy and causes hollow point-like damage that hits FBI penetration specs in tests around UA-cam. Sadly, Kel Tec stopped making the 10 round extended mags a couple of years ago, and they are nearly impossible to find used. If you find them, they are going for over a $100 or more. Still, even without the 10 round mags, the P32 holds 7+1 and hits harder than a 25ACP.
My mot is a ILBE. MSSin the bottom... Food kit.,fire kit..cloths and toiletries.... All in about 45 lbs less water and pew pew /ammo..... Some items will be donned prior to departure...... It gets cold up here in Minnesota ..
Add a baofeng, a couple, or better. Something. My main difficulty is dealing with the cold killing my kit. Not one lucky enough to have a garage, but even alot of garages get cold enough to hurt batteries. Thanks nutn.
Yeah, you want to keep lithium batteries in your kit for dealing with the cold. Also, keep a small folding solar panel along with an AA/AAA/CR123 USB battery charger along with rechargeable batteries in your kit.
@@JohnB-dr8sk been considering going full rechargeable, the solar panel is a must. I just bring the pack in when I park it, but its kinda attention grabby imo. Thanks for the input. Considering making an emp proof ammo can and putting in a cooler or something to insulate.
@@felurianmasters4369You're welcome. I like to have a mix of 80% rechargeables and 20% brand new lithiums. I've found that in cold weather, rechargeables can sometimes go dead. Regarding a solar panel, one of those 100 watt suitcase folding solar panels is ideal. Plenty of power for recharging even laptops, but is portable and still small enough to put inside something to hide it when you're going in and out between your house and vehicle. Best, John
Now 'lifeboat rations' are where it is at. They are super high calorie buscuits, lightweight and some have a shelf life of over 10 years. Throwing them in the trunk has got to be a good idea.
Afternoon Nunfancy, I will spare you my bio only to say that I literally NEVER sign into applications but felt you should be recognized. I have been in this field a long time...since the 9/11 attacks and the public response to said event. I have gone through hundreds of bullshit tacticool operators...all with very real credentials but still wiping thier assholes with the oath. You are one of the ONLY people in the USA that actually understands the realistic middle ground of how to grow as a human instead of just trying to protect 'murica and only 'murica. I just want to say that I know our numbers are few and that "Americans" have lost this war...but humans still have a chance and I personally appreciate you being a human for all of us. This is THRONE WARFARE Ladies and Gentlemen. If you do not hold the throne than someone else will ALWAYS claim it. It is literally that simple, God or no God. Stay safe as I suspect people like yourself will be the sensible representative when we have to contract with these "Chosen" after the fall...
While that's not too many batteries, i suggest adding a battery bank. A battery bank has so many uses or rather devices it can be used to keep charged especially in this world of electronics. Personally i would add a 10watt solar panel to help keep a charge. My electronics EDC/emergency kit has 2 usb-c cables and some usb-c to other connection type adapters and doesn't take up any weight or room when just those items. Allows me to keep any USB chargable device with a common connector charged. There's more to my kit, but that is the basics, along with AC & DC chargers.
The Silky saws are better then the one you got in your pack. There is probably a reason the brand you got went out of business and Silky Saws keep rising up. Another good one is the Agawa Canyon or Boreal. Those are designed similiar to yours but the Silky design is better overall you can cut in tricky places and bigger logs where as with the one you got and Agawa you are limited to the size of the saws frame. One benefit though for the Agawa or the one you got is that the blades are cheaper and easier to find. Thanks for the video!
I love my olights. Had them for years. My biggest gripe is that normal 18650s like Samsung or other standard sized 18650 cells don’t work in them without engineering yourself some freakin foil in between the contacts. Olight 18650 contact point on positive side in particular extends out. Still love them and run them. Just if ur goin for more 18650 cells buy the olight brand ones
I found some slips on Amazon that aren’t terrible! I needed a replacement for a Thor fire light.. you measure and order.. like $7 each I think.. LightFE brand…
Great kit nuttin! I need to get my kits sorted out! I do have a tps scout rifle .357/.410 (and 22lr insert) in a little pack, think it, my EDC, and a j frame .357 will be my VBOC setup! It’s not much but 357/.410 buckshot will be better than nothing, I do keep a couple mora Knifes in the truck, plus a hatchet. Thanks for all the ideas!
Those are great woods guns, and may be ideal if you only have to bug out straight into the woods. But that TPS is a very poor self defense weapon if you run into some armed crazies on the way home. At the least, I would integrate some type of high capacity semi-auto rifle or pistol into your kit. Even a Glock with 15-17 round mag along with your TPS would help even the odds. Because even 2-3 bad guys with Glocks are going to flank you while you're reloading that 6-shooter. We know from US Military history that higher capacity has always been the deciding factor in battles going back to the 1800s. It's why despite the stopping power of the 45 Long Colt, and even when revolvers where well developed, that the US Army immediately adopted the Colt 1911 45 ACP due to it's higher capacity and rate of fire with reloading factored in.
@@JohnB-dr8sk I totally agree, currently I keep hk usp compact in the truck/in lockbox, and my edc bag I normally have a 357 jframe or CSX 9mm, I’ve been trying to carry sp101 on strong side here lately and CSX at appendix, so one way or another I should have a semiautomatic 9mm. I like the idea of the VBOC tho and going to try and set it up with TPS, I think your right tho would be good to write off a .357 jframe and some sort of 9mm in that kit.
@@jackbauer9077Good thinking Jack. If you want to check out a great video on this subject, check out UA-camr Paul Harrell's "Top 5 Guns for TEOTWAWKI" Paul is a former Marine Corps Security Forces Marksmanship Instructor with a long background in hunting and survival prepping in a rural area of Oregon. He was also involved in a self defense incident where he had to shoot an attacker with his rifle at a remote campsite to defend his wife from the attack. He goes into great detail about this exact subject and is one of best that I've seen. He has a long and short version. Both are well worth listening to. Paul is a great resource of knowledge like Nutn is. Best, John
Eh not much hauling and I figured it would not be a 3/4 ton so ty for that. I am just going with a decent 2500 and that should be enough@@jackjohnson291
For hiding stuff in plain sight: make a wooden box, drill small holes in it (3/8ths or so), add a locking latch on the lid, and then label it “Venomous Snakes, Do Not Open!” You can even add a rubber snake or two. 👍
Nutmfancy i noticed you have an safety on your Beretta 950 Jetfire. I own one and theres no safety on my 950-B, just the hammer and trigger operates as the mechanism. Anyway ive got an Kelty Redwing 50 and its an decent pack and large enough. You will like the Silky saw and for wood cutting it miles more efficient and faster to get in action than the Sawvivor. There Silky can cut much larger wood, and do it faster.
Though a .25 isnt what I would personally defer to, and arguably underpowered, it is actually deadly. A buddy of mine who was an off duty PO got into a gunfight with a armed robbery crew in a bar. He shot two of the three , killed on all the while he was struck 8 times with a .40 S&W. He won Officer of the Year. Its better than nothing and shot placement matters. The suspect who shot my buddy and coworker, walked the rounds up his leg so he survived. Check Dennis Devitte Las Vegas Metro PD.
I use a cart. If things get so bad that you have to abandon your vehicle, and you're too far away to get home safely, you're going to need to find a defendable spot, away from people, and hunker down for a while. In that case, you're going to need way more than you can carry. Especially in the winter (you know, like right after the election) 😳🤣
Hmmmm, my money is on Nutn carrying an SU-16C in his VBOK in the next video:) There's probably no other gun like it out there for this application. Sadly, the rumor mill on the Kel Tec forums are saying the SU-16 series may be discontinued soon just like they did with a bunch of their other legacy firearms in the recent past (P3AT, PF9, P11, etc). Unless Kel Tec replaces the SU-16 with an improved version like they did with the SUB2K, it will be a huge loss. I predict it will become extremely collectable if it does. No one else has ever made a 4.7lb folding stock 5.56 rifle that takes standard AR mags for just $550, and I doubt that anyone will again in the future because of clown world of lawsuits that will be filed by the comrades. I'd say get one now while you still can.
nutnfancy is the only vids on yt i can watch for 30+ mins let alone over an hour.

Two videos in a day! What a treat!
“Pack of Tic Tacs, a Glock and a bottle of water”
Yes, long form, high detail. It’s not so much the stuff itself but the philosophy behind it that really strikes me.
I have the same Redwing 50, same color. Absolutely love it. Hiked the Grand Canyon with it twice.
Another great fundamental gear video! Keep them coming.
Come on Nutn! Post Part 3 of the Vehicle Bugout Kit already!
Where can I get a copy of your 37-page book of acronyms. To better understand your videos. Lol
Wow, nut n fancy has been packing on some pounds and aging lol. I haven't seen a video in years until this randomly popped up.
Fenix TK-22 nothing beats that flashlight with a head lamp
Been watching since circa 2010 and my absolute favorite recommended purchases have been that very same Kelly Redwing 50 and the leatherman juice s2.
I had foot surgery earlier this year. I keep hiking poles in every vehicle. A better choice would be a foldable electric scooter or bike that can still function well even if its battery is dead.
I've been itching to make time to watch this for like 2 weeks. FINALLY have some time. So stoked for this one
TicTacs check, bottle watter check, glock check. Thanks for the alpha!
Love it Nut'n ! Going right now to check my truck bag. And yes you need a saw. I'm in the NE and many times I had to drag and cut branches that fell across the road to get through. Looking forward to more of this, Thanks.
“Mhmm no I’m good” hahaha. Baby turd the best way to avoid break in
Another instant classic. Thank you!
I went to the bug in approach. Is the Corvette survival kit depend on the generation?
I definitely agree that the Redwing is a quality pack. I bought my first one on your recommendation. It was very durable and comfortable.
For the Titan, keep an eye on that trans cooler hose. My brother had one and the failure made it DOA.
I don't know why people have those trucks anymore. I drove one once and you could watch the gas gauge moving down. A cousin had one and he filled up twice a week.

Good lord, Nutn! That’s an enormous VBOK!
When you whipped it out, I was expecting something half that size & weight.

I am SUPER disappointed about this. Didn't realize it at first, until I tried to swap an older standard (still protected) 18650 into it and it DIDN'T WORK. While the newer batteries are still standard size, the light itself now ONLY USES THE DUAL POLARITY TERMINALS ON TOP. I honestly probably would not have bought the new ones had I known this. Even the last generation that used the dual polarity terminals on the normally positive end for the purpose of charging was still internally connected to ground on the other end of the light! They reversed the orientation of the battery and now DO NOT USE THE REGULAR NEGATIVE END TO POWER THE LIGHT INTERNALLY.
This may seem like a stupid thing to be so upset about, but my goodness I was ready to cry when I found this out!
Not only does this rope you into using only Olight batteries, but it's probably only something that people like us will be upset about. This is the same gripe I have about not being able to swap out my phone batteries so there was no charging downtime like I used to be able to, not to mention having plenty of spares readily available! Now, if I decide to keep using this light in my systems, I have to swap my inventory to only Olight batteries.
I could probably ultimately live with that, but because these batteries now have positive and negative in close proximity, they may not work correctly in other lights or items! And that's best case. Worst case, if the internal protection doesn't work properly or they make and break contact, they could be a big fire hazard.
Sorry for my rant, but this was very sneaky of Olight now that they developed themselves into such a large and profitable company based on what people like us had to say about them and their use of quality Cree LEDs in addition to my list above. It seems now that they have the masses buying them, they've decided to go the way of the phone and laptop and other "tech" manufacturers.
Anyways, that is all. If anyone can recommend a similar light that will still use a standard 18650, please do.
Also, thank you nutn for another great video!
Not to sound like a broken record here. But I should add that 99.999999% of the time I charge my flashlights batteries in one of my multiple charging docks, and simply pop in a charged battery. Olight doesn't even offer an external charger anymore! The used to sell the batons with an additional adapter sleeve and two Cr123s and a charging dock for like 80 bucks! I think I bought 3 of those kits, plus an additional gen 2 charging dock later on!
Good stuff. One thing I'm in seeing more of is reviews/recommendations on clothing for hot, cold, and wet weather. Boot reviews would be helpful as well. I've been happy with Merrell but I'm open to trying something new. Given your decades of experience in the outdoors in various environments, I think your insights would definitely be valuable.
I thought I had everything squared away as far as a car bug out kit but never thought to put spare ammo. I put 100 rounds of packing-taped 9mm gold dot into each car , since my main pistol and backup pistol are both 9s.
Thanks !
Ooooooh I’m excited.
Totally get the fecal matter deal but something that would work really well is one of those diaper bag backpacks. They are generally small but you'd be surprised how much you can fit in there. Wouldn't be able to fit a higher caliber firearm in most but if you did get a 5 inch 300 blackout upper with a law folding adapter you might just be able to make it happen. Just realize if you go this route it would be a minimalist rig which would work pretty well in an urban setting.
Love that Jetfire Nutn! To me, the ultimate tiny backup bugout gun is the Kel Tec P32, at least back when you could still buy the Kel Tec 10 round mags for them. The P32 actually weighs less than the Jetfire, has a safer (but light) double action trigger, is accurate, and with 11 rounds of Underwood Xtreme Defender 55gr +P 32 ACP rounds, you have gun that has over twice the muzzle energy and causes hollow point-like damage that hits FBI penetration specs in tests around UA-cam. Sadly, Kel Tec stopped making the 10 round extended mags a couple of years ago, and they are nearly impossible to find used. If you find them, they are going for over a $100 or more. Still, even without the 10 round mags, the P32 holds 7+1 and hits harder than a 25ACP.
Time is probably of the essence unfortunately, can't wait to see the rest of the series. I'm taking notes lol
My mot is a ILBE. MSSin the bottom... Food kit.,fire kit..cloths and toiletries.... All in about 45 lbs less water and pew pew /ammo..... Some items will be donned prior to departure...... It gets cold up here in Minnesota ..
Add a baofeng, a couple, or better. Something. My main difficulty is dealing with the cold killing my kit. Not one lucky enough to have a garage, but even alot of garages get cold enough to hurt batteries. Thanks nutn.
Yeah, you want to keep lithium batteries in your kit for dealing with the cold. Also, keep a small folding solar panel along with an AA/AAA/CR123 USB battery charger along with rechargeable batteries in your kit.
@@JohnB-dr8sk been considering going full rechargeable, the solar panel is a must. I just bring the pack in when I park it, but its kinda attention grabby imo. Thanks for the input. Considering making an emp proof ammo can and putting in a cooler or something to insulate.
@@felurianmasters4369You're welcome. I like to have a mix of 80% rechargeables and 20% brand new lithiums. I've found that in cold weather, rechargeables can sometimes go dead. Regarding a solar panel, one of those 100 watt suitcase folding solar panels is ideal. Plenty of power for recharging even laptops, but is portable and still small enough to put inside something to hide it when you're going in and out between your house and vehicle. Best, John
Prob BEST, most overlooked advice…..go on a 20min walk a day.
Go feed some ducks!
You can dig an in ground rocket stove. Shovel is important.
I own a Kelty redwing 50 and love it.
Corvette survival kit, just the essentials!
Now 'lifeboat rations' are where it is at. They are super high calorie buscuits, lightweight and some have a shelf life of over 10 years. Throwing them in the trunk has got to be a good idea.
So great to watching the master at work
M&P shield makes a great backup and sometimes you can find them used for $250
Love your videos Nutn! Please can you give us an update on batons with all the crazy stuff going on in crazy Large cities. Like NYC
Thank you nutnfancy another great video. You are the goat my friend
love this series of videos.
Hay these vids are awesome keep up the great work
Afternoon Nunfancy,
I will spare you my bio only to say that I literally NEVER sign into applications but felt you should be recognized. I have been in this field a long time...since the 9/11 attacks and the public response to said event. I have gone through hundreds of bullshit tacticool operators...all with very real credentials but still wiping thier assholes with the oath. You are one of the ONLY people in the USA that actually understands the realistic middle ground of how to grow as a human instead of just trying to protect 'murica and only 'murica. I just want to say that I know our numbers are few and that "Americans" have lost this war...but humans still have a chance and I personally appreciate you being a human for all of us. This is THRONE WARFARE Ladies and Gentlemen. If you do not hold the throne than someone else will ALWAYS claim it. It is literally that simple, God or no God. Stay safe as I suspect people like yourself will be the sensible representative when we have to contract with these "Chosen" after the fall...
While that's not too many batteries, i suggest adding a battery bank. A battery bank has so many uses or rather devices it can be used to keep charged especially in this world of electronics. Personally i would add a 10watt solar panel to help keep a charge.
My electronics EDC/emergency kit has 2 usb-c cables and some usb-c to other connection type adapters and doesn't take up any weight or room when just those items. Allows me to keep any USB chargable device with a common connector charged. There's more to my kit, but that is the basics, along with AC & DC chargers.
The Silky saws are better then the one you got in your pack. There is probably a reason the brand you got went out of business and Silky Saws keep rising up. Another good one is the Agawa Canyon or Boreal. Those are designed similiar to yours but the Silky design is better overall you can cut in tricky places and bigger logs where as with the one you got and Agawa you are limited to the size of the saws frame. One benefit though for the Agawa or the one you got is that the blades are cheaper and easier to find. Thanks for the video!
Empty Depends box
I love my olights. Had them for years. My biggest gripe is that normal 18650s like Samsung or other standard sized 18650 cells don’t work in them without engineering yourself some freakin foil in between the contacts. Olight 18650 contact point on positive side in particular extends out. Still love them and run them. Just if ur goin for more 18650 cells buy the olight brand ones
I found some slips on Amazon that aren’t terrible! I needed a replacement for a Thor fire light.. you measure and order.. like $7 each I think.. LightFE brand…
Great kit nuttin! I need to get my kits sorted out! I do have a tps scout rifle .357/.410 (and 22lr insert) in a little pack, think it, my EDC, and a j frame .357 will be my VBOC setup! It’s not much but 357/.410 buckshot will be better than nothing, I do keep a couple mora Knifes in the truck, plus a hatchet. Thanks for all the ideas!
Those are great woods guns, and may be ideal if you only have to bug out straight into the woods. But that TPS is a very poor self defense weapon if you run into some armed crazies on the way home. At the least, I would integrate some type of high capacity semi-auto rifle or pistol into your kit. Even a Glock with 15-17 round mag along with your TPS would help even the odds. Because even 2-3 bad guys with Glocks are going to flank you while you're reloading that 6-shooter. We know from US Military history that higher capacity has always been the deciding factor in battles going back to the 1800s. It's why despite the stopping power of the 45 Long Colt, and even when revolvers where well developed, that the US Army immediately adopted the Colt 1911 45 ACP due to it's higher capacity and rate of fire with reloading factored in.
@@JohnB-dr8sk
I totally agree, currently I keep hk usp compact in the truck/in lockbox, and my edc bag I normally have a 357 jframe or CSX 9mm, I’ve been trying to carry sp101 on strong side here lately and CSX at appendix, so one way or another I should have a semiautomatic 9mm. I like the idea of the VBOC tho and going to try and set it up with TPS, I think your right tho would be good to write off a .357 jframe and some sort of 9mm in that kit.
@@jackbauer9077Good thinking Jack. If you want to check out a great video on this subject, check out UA-camr Paul Harrell's "Top 5 Guns for TEOTWAWKI"
Paul is a former Marine Corps Security Forces Marksmanship Instructor with a long background in hunting and survival prepping in a rural area of Oregon. He was also involved in a self defense incident where he had to shoot an attacker with his rifle at a remote campsite to defend his wife from the attack.
He goes into great detail about this exact subject and is one of best that I've seen. He has a long and short version. Both are well worth listening to.
Paul is a great resource of knowledge like Nutn is.
Best,
John
With those sunglasses he looks like the rapper Snow from the 90's😁

You should change your wording form "stay toned" to "build strength".
I would also suggest a tracker such as a tile that you could track your bag.
Nutnfancy… You beautiful bastard!!!
Love my Kelty Redwing!
I am currently trying to find the right truck and still I am stuck between a Ford 250 Super Duty and a Ram 2500.
Don't buy a ram they are junk!!
Get a 50cc moped
Are you going to be using it to haul a lot? If not, don’t bother with a 3/4 ton.
Tundra
Eh not much hauling and I figured it would not be a 3/4 ton so ty for that. I am just going with a decent 2500 and that should be enough@@jackjohnson291
I converted my bobcat to a 25acp. Just slide barrel and mag. Ebayed it
Love it 😂😂😂 Do what you do 😂😂
For hiding stuff in plain sight: make a wooden box, drill small holes in it (3/8ths or so), add a locking latch on the lid, and then label it “Venomous Snakes, Do Not Open!”
You can even add a rubber snake or two. 👍
My rule of thumb is if the trip is more than a 45 minute drive I take my VBOK with heavier weaponry and soft body armor.
I have a jetfire in 25acp.
I have an Lt wright frontier first, Pronghorn in 3-v and a Benchmade 202 Luukko and a silky
Great video
Nutmfancy i noticed you have an safety on your Beretta 950 Jetfire. I own one and theres no safety on my 950-B, just the hammer and trigger operates as the mechanism.
Anyway ive got an Kelty Redwing 50 and its an decent pack and large enough. You will like the Silky saw and for wood cutting it miles more efficient and faster to get in action than the Sawvivor. There Silky can cut much larger wood, and do it faster.
I got a 21a bobcat for $300 after rebate in December. Might have to sacrifice it to my vbok for a secondary weapon
I got in on the rebate as well about the same time, only with the Tomcat (32auto). Have you received your rebate yet?
@@jackjohnson291 Nope not yet

Though a .25 isnt what I would personally defer to, and arguably underpowered, it is actually deadly. A buddy of mine who was an off duty PO got into a gunfight with a armed robbery crew in a bar. He shot two of the three , killed on all the while he was struck 8 times with a .40 S&W. He won Officer of the Year. Its better than nothing and shot placement matters. The suspect who shot my buddy and coworker, walked the rounds up his leg so he survived. Check Dennis Devitte Las Vegas Metro PD.
Bro top right... 👀 lol
that vbok is the size of a small child -bet it takes up a full seat in the titan lmao

Can you do night time navigation training?
I use a cart. If things get so bad that you have to abandon your vehicle, and you're too far away to get home safely, you're going to need to find a defendable spot, away from people, and hunker down for a while. In that case, you're going to need way more than you can carry. Especially in the winter (you know, like right after the election)
😳🤣

Nice Renfield dude.
Hmmmm, my money is on Nutn carrying an SU-16C in his VBOK in the next video:) There's probably no other gun like it out there for this application. Sadly, the rumor mill on the Kel Tec forums are saying the SU-16 series may be discontinued soon just like they did with a bunch of their other legacy firearms in the recent past (P3AT, PF9, P11, etc). Unless Kel Tec replaces the SU-16 with an improved version like they did with the SUB2K, it will be a huge loss. I predict it will become extremely collectable if it does. No one else has ever made a 4.7lb folding stock 5.56 rifle that takes standard AR mags for just $550, and I doubt that anyone will again in the future because of clown world of lawsuits that will be filed by the comrades. I'd say get one now while you still can.
The world is run bring run by clowns for sure. I'm with you 200%
Who is this pat roen guy, and what did he do with nutnfancy
Great info
Nutn, have you ever done a video on the POU of procreation? Perhaps a LoMF?
Time to hit that PT hard, you're looking swoll but not in a good way.
All these acronyms lol
BOK: "Be OK"
Boxes of ammo over bags?

How are you supposed to get home if you have no automotive tools whatsoever? Jumper cables, air compressor and tire plugs are very important
How do I donate ammo to you nuntn?
Huge ass fart at 54:12 😂
