I am having the same problem with a bug out bag. After I pack it I think about whats in it and unload and repack again. I think do I have enough food I could use some advice also.

@paracordjunky Hey bud, Shane here. If you wanted to discuss your concerns feel free. My BOB is actually my camp pack but has 3 days minimum calories in it and all the tools I need to thrive. At 27 pounds it is better equipped and a lot more practical than many BOBs.

[TheBackyardBushman]

Wow guys, thanks again for the feedback. Steve was crook today, I hope to see him responding tomorrow.

[TheBackyardBushman]

Wow, plenty of feedback. I have to get Steve situated with whether I am going to make this a joined account and such but he'll be by to post in no time I am sure. Thanks for the comments guys.

Some forget to realize, the more stuff you have, the less likely you will survive. We have been spoiled to think we need things we do not need. You need food and water to survive. If there is a violent uprising of citizens, you may need a gun or stay hidden. Either way everything in your video can be found in the outside world and used when needed instead of carrying around and weighing you down. If I ever bug out, It will be me and a back pack, all other items I will aquire as needed. PEACE

One more comment and I'm done. I vacuumed packed everything in our packs, including guns and ammo, in Food Saver bags. Makes it all waterproof if we get wet and takes up less space. It even allowed me to pack 2 medium bath towels. Sucks them down to the size of a folded pillow case. They can be used as blankets. Mountain House just introduces the "Pro Pak". Its the same 1 or 2 person meals, vacuum packed to save space. Vacumm packing will double available space in your bag.

OOOPS...weight on mine is 54 pounds...her's is 37. Pack just the basics for 7 days...if you can't set up camp, protects and recreate, don't leave house.

[jammin2marley]

Me and wifes kit is Condor BP with 7 days FD food, MREs, ration bars, canned water (used cans for cooking), canteens, Katadyn filter, virus tabs, 45 packs Chlor-Floc, small bells, folding pocket stove w/ fuel tabs, FP matches, bics, bathroom basics, first aid cream, assorted bandages, gun/ammo each, modular AR Mags, knife, paracord, metal blankets and pocket tent, hard candy, instant coffee packets, copies of vital papers, cash, silver. We'll carry AR15 & 30.06. I'll get us to base camp.

A large pack is there if u need it does,nt mean u have to fill it. Worry about tools and snare wire. When U get to a place u feel safe and R going to stay.Then aquire the little comforts. From what I saw there was alot u dont need,U have to decide what u cant live without.

[mrouterrim]

I dont have one as yet but u need a steri pen and I will have one first chance I get.That will save u a lot of weight being able to purify water on the run that way U can carry more food.Poncho as large as u can find with liner this will be your rain and winter warmth.U could make liner out of down to save weight and warmth.Large size because it will cover your pack and U no mater what U are wearing. Very light weight tent and sleeping gear great depending on what your climate

basicaly every layer is just more elaborate - giving yourself MORE of the basic stuff and more sanitary stuff - soap - first aid kit, mabye pocket fisherman - 4th layer - a duffle bag stuffed with more mre's couple water bottles or jugs, clothes. this would be the bag to take in car and have as long as the car could get you - live off this stuff first and repleish the smaller layers as needed - shed more as situation calls 4. obviously im leaving a ton of stuff out. dont 4get to pack for pets

[kctyphoon]

so here goes- layer 1 - tactical belt - this will carry the most basic of basic survival stuff. the absolutle last thing i would leave behind. small pistol, multi tool, canteen with metal cup, fire starter, maybe a prontien bar. enough for a day or 2. 2nd layer - tactical vest - primary weapon - ammo. another knife.basic sanitary stuff, maybe another day or 2 of basic food and water. layer 3 - 3 day pack - full mre's more water , change of clothes and socks, tarp shelter, maybe a pan

[kctyphoon]

i havent started to buy anything yet, so your way ahead of me. ive just been trying to plan things out in my head, to get stuff that makes the most sense, and then pack it up sensibly also. so anyway my plan is build layers.. this way i can pack what i want, and be able to shed layers down to what i actually need if the situation calls for it. im planning on 4 layers(or levels) of gear for myself, and a pack also for my pets. i'd be able to leave in a car, and then strip down to travel on foot.
