Connradd read the title and said " Batteries".....

I kid I kid.....

 

[DirtyD]

Yeah, I thought of that after I posted, figure DC might get kind of excited too.....

 

[Davidacus]

So is this like a backpack full of stuff in case things get bad??

 

[DirtyD]

Exactley... And bad doesnt have to include EOW Zombie time... could just be Ike time, car wreck, stranded in the middle of no where etc.....

I'm working on a bag and a tub. The tub is a big plastic locker that I can throw in the back of the truck.

I've got a lot of the things DD mentioned (need to get a few things I don't have).

Add to that:
Bungees
Tarp
Ductape
Zip Loc Bags
Notebook/Pens
Blanket
Small Hatchet/Hammer
Water and MREs
AM/FM/Shortwave Radio (intend to buy!)


Considering:
Anonymous Prepaid Cell Phone
Motorola Walkies
Lots of batteries
Digital Camera
Flare Gun


For the Truck:
Fix a Flat
Tow Strap
Jumper Cables
Tent and necessity camping gear
Propane/small grill
Phone charger
AC Power Inverter
More Water and MREs

Of course, if I'm able to go by truck, I'll practically empty the gun safe into the bed. The absolute necessities go in the bag, in the event we have to abandon the truck.

Need that handcuff key and fire steel!!!

I had to go outside for a cigarette ... and I don't smoke

 

[Roscoe]

I have a camelback hawg with 100 oz water hydration unit. In it I have:
4 loaded M-4 mags (extra loose rounds)
6 loaded glock 19 mags (extra loose rounds)
1 mre
1 etrex gps
1 surefire
extra batteries
100 ft. para cord
1 CRKT folder
1 Cold Steel ODA (attached to carry strap)
1 PRC-152 radio (extra charged battery)

Hope I don't have to use it, but here in Central Iraq it could come in handy.

you guys should really think about putting a meal or 2 in your BOB along with your other stuff or have a second bag, just my $.02

As an aside, at an industry meeting prior to hurricane season I posed the question of "What do you have in case of emergency?" The number 1 answer was a blank stare. The #2 answer was, "A cell phone and a Visa card."
Keep in mind most of the people participating were industrial safety professionals. It is scary how far the sheeple have fallen.
I can understand now why some people think I am paranoid.

My wife thinks I'm paranoid, until something happens and we need some of the "extra crap" (her words) that I have on hand.
When I put one together again there will be:
2 bic lighters
1 water proof container of matches
1 box of pistol rounds
1 5-pack of 12 gage slugs
1 5-pack of 12ga OO buck
my Kershaw fixed blade
1 leatherman core
1 tarp
some rope
my duty belt with every thing on it
a signal mirror
1 hatchet
and a compass

 

[Pappy]

All mentioned items to have in your BOB are good...

I would also have some condoms.....

 

[Big country]

That reminds me I need to get some electrical tape for my hunting pack and my bug out bag.

Condoms are easier

 

[Pappy]

Condoms are easier

Oh yes!!!! Much better than electrical tape.......

 

[DCortez]

Oh yes!!!! Much better than electrical tape.......

I use it to put over my muzzle (on my rifle D) when I'm hunting and it's raining/bad weather or you have to do the Rambo low crawl. It keeps debris out of your barrel, you can shoot threw it with no adverse effects on accuracy, and it won't harm the bluing.

 

[DCortez]

I use it to put over my muzzle

Um, we all do.


BC, I know you're new to the marriage game, so if you need any advice, feel free to PM me


Speaking of firing the ole gun, when are we going to see a Little Country?
