Who here carries a Tourniquet?

Misery loves company.

I have my own misery to deal with.

So much for company.

Your far mo w likely to need an AED than a firearm also. Just need it close by. And about the same price as many firearms we keep nearby.


Ever go out to the lake? Anywhere else besides a major city?

You don’t need to be EMS to use an AED. In fact, you don’t really need any training.


Why do you feel that having something that has a far greater chance of being used is stupid? Seems you are more concerned with defending your tourniquet than considering something far more beneficial.

Since you are an advocate for carrying an AED you should buy us some. I will carry it everyday.

I guess I need to start wearing a life jacket 24/7 since I live 12 miles from a lake. And carry a spare for someone else.

If you live on water, you probably should.

Some here should take the belt and use it as a TQ around your neck in a circle jerk. It appeared to work on Carradine so I retract all my past comments.

LMAO! I was just thinking the same thing.

And then use the lamp cord as a TQ...

Dude, I LOLed when I read that!

This is about saving lives, not taking lives. Dammit!

LOL!

It’s amazing you question my logic about carrying something that would probably be useful at some point while making silly comments like this.


I get it though, sounds really cool to say you have a tourniquet.


Nobody is gonna be like “You got an epinephrine pen! That’s so awesome!”

What if it comes in a titanium Marfione housing and costs 3k?

That really depends if it's milled for an RMR or not.

Don’t question the logic of carrying one. I question the logic of suggesting that carrying something the size and weight of the thing for EDC. It’s ridiculous! My father had one of the cell phones from the 80’s. It was a brick. For all of the suggestions of it being portable, it wasn’t. Which is the reason most owners left them in the trunk. A tourniquet is the size of a smartphone. Small, lite and EDCable. When a defibrillator is the size of a fist and cost $30 then talk to me. Otherwise, your argument is just trolling.

And yes, half of the year I do have to carry an epipen. But of course that’s just for me. Having your tongue and throat swell up is far from fun.

I want to get one with lightening holes to match my 1911.

My arguments in this thread are only about 80% trolling.


The other 20% is accidentally honest because an AED in your vehicle would still see more use (or would be thousands of times more likely to see use) than a tourniquet.

The Epinephrine fits all the criteria of a tourniquet and would also be thousands of times more likely to see use.


But you are correct. The vast majority of my posts are just for lulz because everyone was getting so butthurt about who carries what. I even said so a couple pages back but people kept replying.

Tourniquets suck.

Another one I liked, just so I can unlike, did you see my 45 jam? Where'd I put my spreadsheet?

Even medical professionals can give really bad advice.

OK, let our readers judge.

In seven years as a U S Army Physician and 13 years of Emergency Medicine practice, I never saw a single case in which a tourniquet was needed.

But I guess that those geniuses who teach first aid courses must know better.

You can use the lamp cord as a defibrillator if applied appropriately.

That is what caused me to mention TQ.
YG said zap them with a lamp cord.
