      If you've got $10 a month and can dabble in prep this year, you can get each of these items by EOY:
      1. get a first aid kit (control bleeding, prevent infection)
      2. any kind of rain protection. the longer the better, climate permitting, so it can also trap heat when it's windy/chilly or even be used as a canopy, rain collector, or tarp (so you can sleep on the ground without getting damp)
      3. a hat to trap head heat and resist the elements. in warmer months, you can soak it in water to resist heat exhaustion
      4. sunscreen, highest spf you can get for $10
      5. pocket knife/hammer some kind of tool that can serve multiple purposes (this last one is tricky on $10 but hopefully you won't need it often)
      6. something that can store water, preferably a steel, even insualted/double walled, bottle. BPA free is nice but microplastics are among the least of our concerns in a SHTF sitch
      At $10 a month, you won't look tacticool, but you may look alive, and that's very cool. Stay safe out there and be excellent to each other.

    I have a Virtus in .300 Blk with a X300u at the 12 and I love it. There is some significant shadow from the suppressor but 10 feet you can see the knees of a man sized target, so it’s still extremely functional. Also, I’m an active duty SERE Specialist with 2 years at the JPRA Urban program and this is a solid video. Maybe add a poncho fleece. If you contract a GSW, a little extra thermal protection can make a big difference. But there is always a “If I could add one more thing…” thing.

    I have the Vertx Ready 2.0 Pack, and this system works perfectly for my needs. The issue you mentioned about having to remove the entire rig to access items isn't a problem with this bag. I can unclip one of the straps, swing the bag around to access what I need, and then swing it back and reclip it easily. Thanks for giving me this idea! Since I work in armed security, I wanted a system that allows me to quickly switch to a harder-hitting platform if necessary, and this bag fits the bill.

I can unclip the 2 right side clips in less than 3 seconds, not bad. I've used this setup this summer with the kids hiking, the fair, and on a couple of trips. I like it.

    Excellent production value and nice approach; people often use organizer pouches in a larger bag, but rarely do they think to use a waist pack in the same way, and it's a very flexible approach since it can both function as a sub-load organizer in a larger pack or stand alone too. While the lucas look is in, consider cargo pants for EDC; while it's on the other end of the form/function spectrum, some look very professional (Tru Spec 24/7 for instance) and suitable for daily wear. Would recommend shifting away from baofeng and towards stand-alone meshtastic messengers for team communication. It's secure (legally), works with atak/itak and contents cannot be monitored by device creators (google, apple or 3rd party stingray / cell approach), is inexpensive to get into and no legal hurdles like licensing required. While they can be direction found like anything else emitting this can be mitigated as always through best practices.

    A recommendation for a low-pro gray man type chest rig that’s less tactical but still works okay if you train with it is the Viktos Low key chest rig.

  • @musician445
    @musician445 9 місяців тому

    Thank you for reminding us that we need to verify our systems work before trusting them. Glocks don't seem to suppress well out of the box and the same seems true for many other handguns that aren't suppressor-ready. Like any gun, the sum of parts aka "the recipe" are what determines the entire SYSTEM runs correctly. The spring rate of both the recoil spring and the booster spring in the suppressor as well as the weight of the suppressor itself effects how the weapon functions. The weight of a silencer added to a barrel would normally prevent a browning tilting action pistol from being able to tilt, which is why we have the neilson device (booster). It makes the suppressor suspend in mid-air for a brief moment while the barrel performs its tilting action. The rate of that spring inside the booster assembly is one of the parts to this recipe, but sadly many manufacturers don't offer different spring rates for their boosters; (although i believe DA did provide them with the odessa) so we often have to change the recoil spring rate in the gun itself to help remedy the problem. Its been said that if you can get a can light enough, it doesn't even need the booster, never tested this myself though. The only guns I have that run can's are both suppressor ready from the factory and they both run very well. The can's i put on them are also very light though.

    Great video. While I appreciate your admission of the rig/back pack clips has drawbacks, it's genius, and something I've been wondering about for a long time.
    I've been toying around with this concept for a little bit, and watching other people's 'get home' bags has been helpful in planing out builds like this. Mystery Ranch, Vertx, 511s, and even some more standard civilian bags like ospreys or whatever really work in this regard. One thing another youtuber (Icr who atm) pointed out was remember, go lighter, because you might be walking for a while. (I'll look it up and post it as a reply because there's some good points to consider)
    Once again, great video, also love the Division.

In need you can theoretically put everything together in few seconds and be ready to get into fire fight, until you have enough time to wear the whole chest rig as intended and keep on with the fight.

    You know there are some interesting comms gear that you could have that could be offensive and defensive in this scenario. Legality of electronic warfare gear is questionable to have but when SHTF, being able to equalize an enemy with EW is valuable. Not sure if I want to put this scenario with this specific equipment but you can certainly cause some "Mayhem". Another interesting thing would be to neutralize your night vision without compromising your own vision at night. Interesting channel.

    I have two AR's for two different situations.
    I've got my PWS Mk116 Mod 2 with an LPVO 1-6x and an canted RMS for long short to longer range environments.
    In an urban environment, I have a Daniel Defense Mk18 with an Eotech EXPS2.
    However, with my luck, I'll twist my ankle and bash my head on a rock within the first 5 minutes during an end of the world scenario, and I'll be someone's amazing loot piñata.

    I keep a 10.5 5.56 with a 1-8x LPVO and a top dot as my primary. It generally stays in my truck in a bag under the back seat.
    A lot of people scoff at a 1-8x on a 10.5" barrel, but a magnified optic with a good reticle is way more than a sighting system.
    Aside from the obvious benefit of more magnification for engaging targets, the main reason I run it is for observation. A good reticle will give you tons of information about what you're looking at, without giving any sign you're observing
    The scope rarely leaves 3x unless I'm specifically dialing up to look at something. Going from 1x to 3x without removing my hands from my weapon system is a huge benefit to transitions over a dot/magnifier combo imo.
    The top dot, if zeroed at the proper distances, has more utility than just passive aiming as well. 5.56 from a 10.5" barrel zeroed at 55 yards with a +4.5" height over bore gives a very flat trajectory out to 300, especially for the velocities you'll see in that barrel length.

    My urban loadout is very similar, except I carry I P320 and a Flux Raider. I don't anticipate being in a situation where I have to shoot past 150 meters, so the Flux gives me plenty range along with the added benefit of fitting in a bag while suppressed and allowing me to only carry one caliber and magazine type.

    I like how you ditched your rifle for the enemy rifle. In the division you practically have to unload all your ammo to down someone, so you have to steal theirs. Accurate. 😂

    I just keep the single strap, I run a similar setup for... particular situations. I run the single strap and sling it over my shoulder like a purse with 3 mags if I need to drop my pack or give it to someone for some reason.

  • @ecag2138
    @ecag2138 9 місяців тому

    Some really good ideas in this video. One thing I always wonder about seeing all these kits people have is, do you always have multiple of those things that you keep in the pack? Is there enough stuff to run your full combat kit while this one stays ready at home? It sounds unlikely but maybe I'm just missing something.

    This is an interesting and entertaining take on a topic. I’ve watched a handful of your videos, and I’ve poked around in your channel a handful of times. All pretty interesting/informative/entertaining stuff. I especially enjoyed your series on structure clearing. You guys seem to have an impressive handle on some of the less commonly used defensive tools (rifles, body armor, night vision, etc). All cool stuff that I find interesting and entertaining, but I have to ask out of genuine curiosity: do you guys ever participate in any less lethal training/preparation such as OC spray and/or martial arts/combative training? I ask because I find your channel informative, entertaining, and incredibly thorough, but it seems like the majority of the topics covered (such as having a boonie hat equipped with night vision and a backpack gun because it’s an election year) seem to be (literally and figuratively) geared more toward black swan events than some of the more fundamental (and dare I say basic) aspects of personal protection such as martial arts training and less lethal training. Forgive me if this comes off as a meandering rant, but I am curious. The topics you cover are interesting and entertaining, but it seems like some of this stuff is sort of like putting the cart before the horse. It’s great to have all of these tools and the ability to implement them, but I feel like there are more fundamental skills, tools, and ideas that are several times more likely to be employed than a backpack gun, a chest rig/backpack hybrid, and a boonie hat with night vision. Not casting shade or judging, but as far as living in/around urban and suburban areas… it seems like the ability to fight, manage unknown contacts, and employ less lethal tools are several times more likely to be utilized than the items covered in this video. This is the internet so I unfortunately have to make the disclaimer that I am not against people owning or using any of the items in this video. I think it’s great. Again, to me, it seems like the majority of people would get far more benefit from fundamental skills and tools than from some of the less common (albeit cooler) defensive tools (rifles, night vision, etc). Again, I’m not casting shade or judging but just curious. I make the above meandering comment with the 80/20 principle in the back of my mind. This is all very cool stuff, but the likelihood of utilizing any of it is very low when compared to a lot of the more fundamental skills and tools.
