The only other thing I would add to that is a map of the area I'm in and yes I'm aware that you're probably familiar with your area but if you need to deviate around certain things it could be handy.
Yes for sure. I keep a gazetteer in my truck always
The ACU can be dyed with black walnut hulls. It make a good camp then. I just did this with some ACU last fall.
Briskly walk up and down a flight of stairs two or three times. Tell me if you feel as old as I do when I try it.. lol.. all my shit is going in a wheel barrow nowadays..
I hear ya!
Welcome to my world > picked up my INCH bag after it sat for a few years unused & found out that some wascally wabbitt had replaced all my gear with lead bricks !!!!!... LOL.
Then i modified a 2 wheel tool/storage bin & put better wheels on it & pulled it for about 5 miles over different terrain,, worked pretty darn good & with plenty of room left over for "stuff" i might scavenge along the way..
Me old back & knee's thanked me.
@@tomcatt998 i have a gorilla cart from tsc for this purpose.. 1200 lbs capacity, 400 lbs is all I want to pull (garden dirt and such).. but in a desperate bugout, it would suffice
I started out with a large bug out bag. Then, I had the get home bag on top of that. Freaked out and went to a full-blown INCH pack....which became incredibly impractical, having to huff it around to different vehicles, etc. Took up tons of space.
My injuries from the Marines got way worse, and now I have possible MS on top of that. I physically can't do large heavy packs anymore. Those days are long gone for me, and I ain't even 40 yet.
Now I have a minimalist "go bag" that is just bare essentials only to survive that I can easily move around and light enough to hike with comfortably if necessary.
Part of that minimalist system is a waterproofed, insulated ECWCS military style jacket, plus, a 2lb wool "patoo" (Afghanistan shawl/blanket) that comes with me and that bag all year round.
Excellent. And thanks for your service
I appreciate the sacrifice for our country. I've heard of many Marines being damaged for life by the loads they carried. We stop moving...we die.
Nice pack. Something to consider would be soft armor to replace the pad. This would replace the purpose of the pad by giving you some rigidity but also adding some protection capabilities
For water purification I like Grayl Geo Press
With regards to a stove stand, I just use a stick to rake and pile some hot coals aside from the fire, set it on top, and good to go.👍
I also think it might be important to carry "extras" on your person, just in case of robbery/unforseen circumstances etc. Essentially basic backups in case the bag has to go.🤔
I added 2 sustainment pouches on mine. You’ll need 2 carabiners. It’s becoming my favorite pack
Mans is up there with some of the fastest molle threading I've seen 😂
Its called "editing"...🤔😆😆😆
Quick tip, the folding Bundeswehr iso mat fits in place of the back panel with the Bundeswehr ground sheet. It makes a great soft frame for this size pack.
@@timothymckee7693 yes sir! The old elephant skins! How do they hold up as you use them? I have always just used my poncho or some type of tarp myself.
Have a similar pack but mines in coyote tan and the foam at the back is sewn in. Had it for years, put in lots of miles with it, packs quite rectangular at the base. One word of warning, it's an unforgiving design on your back if you pack it even slightly wrong, the heavy items have to go right up against your back, preferably towards the top against your back, same with the canteen pouches, as close to your back as possible or you're in for a rough hike.
I would use 2 gardeners knee pads and a plastic cutting board in the back.
I like the "load lifter" hack. I stuff my bedroll pad inside there because it is bulky and impervious to water/dirt. So carrying it high keeps it as much out of the way as possible without interference with items inside the main pack area.
Sir, I really appreciate your perspective; No BS/posturing, etc.- just practical information and discussion. Well done.
Thank you!
To pad the back of some backpacks I have, I also use a rigid material that I can replace with a tarp or metal grill for cooking over the fire.
Used to the time of the armed forces, I also use a lot of external pouches to contain some local emergency needs (a high visualization vest, a poncho, first aid, water and supplies for the same and one or another piece of clothing. Set between 25/30 pounds.
Loved that load lifters tip!
Would you consider adding any extra clothing to that set up? I always hear preaching about extra socks an such. Still new to this whole thing.
Interesting ideas. Thank you.
Had one of those for when I was Active Duty. Not a bad bag to start off with.
I would put that bag on and take it for a stiff walk 3 times a week.
Good video, most my gear is military surplus, I have that pack in the woodland color
Like the set up, similar to mine.
Nice content, well covered! Greetings from the woods in Sweden 🇸🇪
Great setup
I also use military surplus along with European military surplus, your load out is great, looks like you have room for a second canteen on the med kit side, I try to carry two quarts of water, when one canteen is empty I still have another before having to find more water….
As a suggestion, maybe add a soft armour panel!
Good vid for sure!
Good video , thanks for sharing , God bless !
Great video brother
👍 Good informative video.
The recent fires in Hawaii is a great example of why everyone should have a prepared bag. And how fast they had to evacuate. As well as seeing what the Ukrainians had to do to flee their country. And husband wives be separated.
It’s true the digital grey is a terrible camo BUT it worked excellent in the city streets of Iraq during the war. I prefer the multicam pattern myself.
I bet it did. Thank you for your service
It will definitely not work in American urban areas.
It actually makes you stick out.
Just look at any cities, like Chicago, Los Angeles, etc.
Great video and new subscriber! "Which" specific Rhino Rescue Trauma Kit model are you using? Thanks!
RHINO RESCUE 500D CORDURA IFAK
@@rhinorescue_official Thanks! Just saw your website and implementation of the TCCC (Tactical Combat Casualty Card). I'm the one who redesigned that on Fort Sam Houston, Texas. We have a revised copy as of 2019 if that isn't the latest one.
Depending on what circumstances are when SHTF, looking military/militant will make you a target. It may be better to have more docile appearing gear. Imagine a police state...resistance will be expected...and expected to be wear military / militant gear. Prepare for contingencies.
I think this is something that gets repeated and regurgitated. Camo gear is prevalent. I see them everywhere. Plus I plan to be armed at all times.
@@ThePreparedWanderer I hope we never find out. Stay strong, neighbor!
Can of spray paint, or dye can change its visual dynamics. Shitty off hand paint job=shitty looking bag. Make it look like crap on purpose.👍
Carry a colored pack cover. It can quickly be stretched over the pack, and quickly removed. It also adds an additional layer of water resistance.
Are the canteen fre Nalgeen ? 🤔
Nalgene oasis
@@ThePreparedWanderer I thought so 😅 I just got one issued by the Danish Home Guard 🇩🇰
What brand was the Canteen-cup ? 🤔
PREPPER BUGOUT BAG! When would you use a multi cam if your in a defensive bugout posture that bag would give you up. In a bugout using Situation Awareness that is not a good choice especialy if your walking around a third world country with that military style bag. In a bugout your main objective is to remain in as stealthy and move unseen. GRAYMAN so you wont get caught.
Ugh keep repeating what the you hear from experts. I live in the country. I am patrolling the woods.
I hate velcro on anything that I'm trying to be quiet with that's the only thing that I don't like about this pack.
