Angel Medina yeah good call. I saw MCQ carrying rendered fat.. he used it as chapstick, cooking fat, shotgun and knife rustproofing etc. Thought id share the tip!
I'd carry fixin' wax for that if possible (beeswax, a bit of rendered fat, and any medicinal herbs you'd like). Good for oiling metals, your lips, you can use it in cooking safely too
Yeah, about that... A lot of people have been using a chap stick since kids, or something similar. Except you don't actually need it, it's just marketing like many other items. Your body gets used to the added oil and produces less natural protection and that's why you're getting dry lips or cracked lips without it. You stop using it and eventually your lips will get back to normal. I get dry lips compared to without any, but they haven't cracked in decades.
This guy is the exact reason that I bought and packed my Eberlestock Halftrack pack for so long. I have since moved on to Hill People Gear UTE but the halftrack is still one of the best packs made in my opinion.
Professionally presented with several layout concepts coming into play. My loadout is vastly different, but the philosophy is the same. There are several key take-aways in this video. It’s easy to nit-pick this or that in your load-out, but the concepts are what is important to remember. Well done, and thank you.
I found this helpful. I've been playing around with the idea of having a basic "bug out bag" in the house, but was hung up on the idea of at least having the capability of rifle/shotgun carry as well, not to mention how to STOCK the whole thing in practical fashion. This gets me started, along with the feedback in the rest of the comments. Thanks.
Mr Andy, You are scary efficient in Your pack layout, operation & the great delivery of this vid !!!! Others should take a lesson from Your presentation !!! WOW !!! Way to Go !!
I find first aid kist problematic as they aren't geared to proctect fully for a treker. I solve this by buying a waterproof case from a hardwear store. From experience, I wrap mine in a $5 misrofiber towel. Regardless od whether you use a hard waterproof case or not, its handy to lay out to empty your first aid supplies on so it is free from debris. In your case maybe a plastic or rubber backed sheet as you are in snow fall areas
Wow. I watch a lot of these type of videos, and mostly I find the guys are not bad, but slightly amateurish. This, however, is a well made, well reasoned video. You seem to have your sh*t together. Good for you.
I have that small flashlight too. IDK how many times it has been my true EDC because my official EDC flashlight is bigger and isn't always with me. I am surprised you don't double up on lighters? The trusty and cheap Bic lighter is super reliable and cheap. Works in cold or altitudes too. Loved this video and subscribed to see more! Thanks
I have the Thrunite TH10 headlamp. Excellent headlamp. However, I jave since swapped.out for the Nitecore rechargeable headlamp. Reasons are: 1. USB recharge without having to remove battery. Perfect to use with my solat powered battery banks. 2. Has Red Light through a red light button. So perfect for night stealth use and no worrying about cycling white modes to get to red. Downsides are that its not as bright in max mode white as the TH10, but does put out more than enough.
The way I usually set my pack up is to have Gear in molle pouches, but keep them in the pack. That way my pack is not half-empty and has a low drag profile which I prefer. If I need some extra room, I just strap stuff to the outside. Love your dominant side layout. I use a similar principle but in a differant way.
Bruh..... I've seen soooooooooo many rucksack videos and by far, you nailed it. You have exactly what you need for your mission. So many have junk that they'll never need or use. Keep it up and FYI, your in cold weather, add some hand and feet warmers too.
Great video and love the set up. I do have a suggestion however. I would add a Israeli bandage to you med kit. It saved my butt when I was backpacking a few years ago. I was cutting some fire wood to make a cook fire and the ax slipped and hit my shin. I pulled out the bandage and applied it to the wound then preceded to hike the 3 miles to my vehicle. It took 7 stitches to patch me up. The doctor told me it could have been a lot worse but that bandage stopped the bleeding fast and helped mitigate any further injury. Again awesome video keep it up.
Not one, not two, but THREE sets of cuffs? What on earth kind of stuff are you using this pack for? Unles you're law enforcement seems like totally unecessary weight and volume.
What is it that you do? I don't know of any LE that allows rifle carry in the woods. I ask because I'm going into the law enforcement career and had considered being a Game Warden. Is that what you are?
InnerBark Outdoors Load your heaviest shit closest to your body and it’ll be like night and day and just use a sling for your rifle. It’s like night and day. Just grab one of those fancy new adjustable slings and it works for whatever you need it for.
Ten Essentials, Ten Essentials, Ten Essentials! I've had a SILVA Ranger compass for decades and now have a SUUNTO Universal (world wide) protractor compass.nBoth have inclinometers for avalanche territory.
I have that same tan Vanquest pouch. When hiking I carry my 938 pistol inside of it. I removed one of the inside sleeves and had vanguest hook n loop sewed on and attached a vanquest holster. Other side has gunshot first aid items.
i love your set up. its giving me some better ideas on how i want to set my up. long work in progress. mostly have to get some different pouch's for my bag.
Andy great to see you out in the woods again. Excellent vid. One thing that struck me was the simplicity of your med kit. I actually exclaimed "what no tourniquet" no Israel bandage or splint either... 😱🤔👍! I see so many guy loading up on these items and from ,my now very dated, First Responder training I understand "If not an expert medic you shouldn't be applying a tourniquet, ect.." That may be wrong now but your sparse kit and statement "this is everything I need" just brought to mind how practical is it to carry a tourniquet in you back pocket ...
I have a TQ on my armor and on my duty belt, but you could pretty quickly make a TQ out of webbing from the pack and a makeshift windlass (if im injured tot he point of needing a TQ, I'm not walking out with my pack anyways). I'm currently an EMT, and have not ever had to use a TQ outside of training (luckily, perhaps).
I'm not sure of the weight, its not too bad for me to cary long distance but thats all relative. I am going to do an updated video and I'll be sure to include this information. Thanks for the good idea!
ive got a build list on his rifle from what i can see in this vid the whole rifle comes out to be about 6,962 dollars (without counting the level on top of the scope and the zipties along with the velcro for the pressure pad) magpul prs gen 3 stock (fde) - $218 magpul MIAD gen 1.1 grip kit - $36 premier reticles heritage scope - $3,000 cmc drop in 3.5 pound ar-15 flat-faced trigger - $168 lantac .308 enhanced nickle boron bolt carrier group - $328 surefire ST07 remote tail switch - $63 steiner DBAL A3 infra-red laser and illuminator -$990 knights armament corporation aluminium bipod - $438 noveske "pig" flash surpressor - $124 M5E1 aero precision ar-10 in .308 - $1,540 magpul ms4 sling -$57 thats what i found this search took me 3 hours so i hope it's accurate! i couldnt find the rail he uses it doesnt come with the M5E1 i also did not account for the velcro, zipties, and the level on his scope. i hope this helps and god bless!
Wow - late to comment this but Nicholas... thanks from all of us lol. I didn't even know what the true costish of my setup was. *thumbs up* great job man!
To Andrew Harris, can't believe how smart you are. Cuffs you need just in case you encounter humans with criminal intent and you don't want to kill them. Some humans want to abuse other humans by insticnt. For example abusive police officers, they will abuse you if they think you can be abused.
i believe those are nomex flight gloves. i can find then at my local army/navy store for about 9-12 dollars. one of my favorite gloves uses goat skin and nomex, so its somewhat flame retardant and it wont burn (what they use to make flight suits and wildland fire fighter suits). great gloves especially for the cost. hope this helps!
Great video - well thought out "must carry" equipment and placement - the only thing I would add to the first aid kit would be a tourniquet (unless there was one in there that I did not see).
+hardnesshammer really? he is a law enforcement officer that helps the park and hunts bad guys. do you think he's going to use an airsoft gun? also why would he spend 6,962 dollars on an airsoft gun for no reason
Why would you carry 3 different sets of cuffs? How about some para cord and learning some knots? You can use the cord for many things and cut some pointless weight.
I'm confused, is this a video about being on duty in the back country? Are you expecting multiple "suspects" in the woods? What scenario do you see occurring?
This video is about getting people to think about what they need and where they should place it. This setup is for me, which not something that would fit most people out there. I used this pack for work because it's laid out better for back country LE work than a regular backpacking backpack.
Oh you are a genius!! Why doesn't he do that? It makes so much sense bc everything in his terrain is white. Just look at all those white trees behind him.... smh
I see where you might think thats a great idea, and in some cases it might be. But for me it's not ideal. Thanks for the comment tho, if I end up doing more snow hikes/winter time I'll consider it.
I got a similar setup but bring my millwukee m12 flashlight because it has USB ports on it and can last a ridiculous amount of time on a charge for how small it is
It’s an odd thing to carry handcuffs in a forest. There was a thought process that went into setting up his kit, he has prepared himself for lack of a better word “eventuality” that may or may not exist/occur. At any rate it says something. You can tell a lot about the man by what he carries. What are you packing for?
lee larsen Uhm... he is a U.S National Park Ranger? He needs these items to perform his job. don't judge a man by his "bag" without some context and history of thier person.
Andy!!! Great frickin video bud. I fell in love with the Halftrack and bought one last spring. Its a great ruck, but have yet to find a real "home" for it in my system. You just solved the problem. I just need to rearrange my pouches.
Love the setup, not very practical for actually backpacking and not sure why you’d need handcuffs maybe I missed something are you LEO but I found it useful for some things I can use backpacking thank you
Albert Johnson lol. Well there part of the uniform. The not going in with stuff in the cargo pockets. So so you can put things you find in them. I'm always getting told off for putting my gloves in my cargos. It that. It there full. You can't put things in them that you come across. It makes sense to me. People will still think what they think. And there aloud too.
If you really want to, you could just get some small molle dry bags to put on if you find anything. The molle is for everchanging missions. The main pack is to utalized completely
Mystninja, part of the reason why they don't like you putting things in your cargo pockets, is that bulging pockets looks ugly and un-uniform on a parade square. Out in the field everyone put essentials like maps and medical kits in.
Lol, bro my daughter said leave a comment, well thanks for the vid, for someone like me with no experience on this kind of thing means a lot, thank you, can’t wait to see your bug out the city backpack
Love the planning with your support hand. And I’m definitely jealous of that massive pocket on the side for all the quick grabs. Liked and subbed good video
Andy, Happy New Year and another outstanding video. It helped to bring in to focus. What you stated in a previous reply. Keep up the great work lad. Cheers, Mate.
That is a nice setup you have and I love the water spout on your bag where you can get to it easily. That 7.62 rifle is looking great too and it is nice to have snacks in your backpack, but I would want more food items in there to survive off of until I could either find fish, or animals to kill and cook.
Good job, u got a subscriber, FA kit needs multiples and easier access, you seem to know quality, so next purchase get the Bruton box compass, mil Arty version, then you have 2, remember 1 is none, 2=1..., Rangefinder?, Overall good stuff, I don't understand the context?! So I will check out more vids, so I will tell you I am "OLD" w/ 30+ yrs experience, but you held my interest, and yes I learned! So good job, continue to learn your craft!
Going out for my first time tomorrow with the CSM. Really helpful video. And gave me some good ideas for some extra stuff to pack. Thanks man! Sub button pushed brother.
Just purchased this backpack, few different things are on the new version I take it. 1 the molle webbing on front is not stitching it's cut out, 2 the side trekking pole slots don't have a open bottom now, still has hooks on the inside but it's a closed bottom. Kinda disappointed in that TBH. Otherwise looks like a great pack! Excited to get it out on the trail.
MJ - thanks so much for the comment, and talking about the new/different features! Super informative/helpful on a rather older video. It's a great pack, it's still my go to for trecks and weekend trips.
sir, just found your channel, while I'm an old school alice kind of guy, I can see how this set up works for you, gotta admit that was a beut of a weapon, looking forward to seeing more of your content.
Another great video. I really like your 'dominant' side packing approach too. Thanks. (My goal is never to get so close to a 'bad guy' you can cuff them.) Evade 'em or, if you must, incapacitate 'em.
I like to traveling at the mountains, so we always have to have the properly equipped backpack. What I mean? first of all I must see the map the distance I have to spend, the time and the weather. because the bag must have the necessary for this particular route. I mustn' t have things in the bug who i don't need. hiking in the mountains is very difficult and we don't need extra weight!!! So de careful when planning our trip.
Love the no BS vibe, no fancy filming, there's a raw thing with you. Love it. Very impressed with your methodology behind putting your bag together
Glad you enjoyed the content! I try to make it as digestible as possible
I couldn't put my finger on why I liked our guy immediately but you nailed it. Justed subscribed.
Don't forget that the camera quality is on par!
If out in the cold, a small suggestion would be chap stick. A very small thing but it can save a ton of discomfort.
Angel Medina yeah good call. I saw MCQ carrying rendered fat.. he used it as chapstick, cooking fat, shotgun and knife rustproofing etc. Thought id share the tip!
I'd carry fixin' wax for that if possible (beeswax, a bit of rendered fat, and any medicinal herbs you'd like). Good for oiling metals, your lips, you can use it in cooking safely too
If you run out of chap stick, you can use your own ear wax.
@ keeps you from licking your lips, so actually not too bad of an idea
Yeah, about that... A lot of people have been using a chap stick since kids, or something similar. Except you don't actually need it, it's just marketing like many other items. Your body gets used to the added oil and produces less natural protection and that's why you're getting dry lips or cracked lips without it.

Mr Andy, You are scary efficient in Your pack layout, operation & the great delivery of this vid !!!! Others should take a lesson from Your presentation !!! WOW !!! Way to Go !!
presentation and functionality are not quite the same things..
Wally Ceiphert yes I’m taking lessons from him to use on my videos, great presentation.
Thanks Wally, a few things have since changed but for the most part love this set up
Good job. Also I carry a roll of toilet paper, zippo and fluid for it along with a few sheets of newspaper folded up for lighting a fire.

I'll look into it. All of my camp specific headlamps has a red, which is nice when I don't want to destroy my night vision.

You need a tourniquet
I saw plenty of para cord in there, but not any superglue.
you read my mind 11 months earlier
lmao paracord for a tourniquet...
Hudson thought that to
OSHA banded them recently, there are better options
Love your videos! Great info and production value. Color me inspired to rethink my setup.

Your pack looks extremely low, and your load lifters are loose. I'm in the Army, and that's a serious no go, if you're worried about comfort and pace.
that backpack doesn't fit him, and the gun seems to be the heaviest load he got, should be the closest to his back for balance and spine safety

Nomex flight gloves
Sex gloves,to go with cuffs
Look like nomex gloves. I was issued a green pair. Great for dexterity but not for warmth.

The back pack looks quite heavy and non - waterproof (wet snow). And I would never carry my lighter away from my body heat ;-)

Andrew Harris He works as a US National Parks Ranger
+andrew harris to kidnap people
Just in case he finds a stranded lady and needs to get freaky. Isn’t that why we carry cuffs? No? Just me so.. disregard
Just in case he runs across angry wildlife..LOL
To Andrew Harris, can't believe how smart you are. Cuffs you need just in case you encounter humans with criminal intent and you don't want to kill them. Some humans want to abuse other humans by insticnt. For example abusive police officers, they will abuse you if they think you can be abused.

maybe

no problem man i have a build list though in the comments section if you want to check it out
What gun is that ?
It's the Aero Precision M5E1 (308win)

Why would you carry 3 different sets of cuffs? How about some para cord and learning some knots? You can use the cord for many things and cut some pointless weight.
Cuffing a suspect is the most dangerous part of an arrest, so the faster you get it done, the safer it is for everyone.
I'm confused, is this a video about being on duty in the back country? Are you expecting multiple "suspects" in the woods? What scenario do you see occurring?

Your camouflage should be white.
sandy brown is not found in that snow, white is pretty nice, but the key thing is to brake up the shape rather than color.
Oh you are a genius!! Why doesn't he do that? It makes so much sense bc everything in his terrain is white. Just look at all those white trees behind him.... smh
I see where you might think thats a great idea, and in some cases it might be. But for me it's not ideal. Thanks for the comment tho, if I end up doing more snow hikes/winter time I'll consider it.

You can tell a lot about the man by what he carries.
What are you packing for?
lee larsen Uhm... he is a U.S National Park Ranger? He needs these items to perform his job. don't judge a man by his "bag" without some context and history of thier person.
Maybe arrest them and make them tote that pack for torment
Useful setup with your packed equipment! Keep the videos coming!
*thumbs up*
Andy!!! Great frickin video bud. I fell in love with the Halftrack and bought one last spring. Its a great ruck, but have yet to find a real "home" for it in my system. You just solved the problem. I just need to rearrange my pouches.
Mr Ray!! Thank you man! Glad this would help out and you found something that worked for you! Hope you are liking the new content
The bye at the end was so abrupt and hurtful :(
:(
$250 for a 2100 cubic inch backpack, what are you nuts?
I bought an LAPG Atlas 72, 4560 cu. in. for $65 dlls. and got free a rite in the rain small notebook
If you have the cash then why not. Plus if it’s needed for a hobby, $250 is really nothing.
You can get a mil tec molle for $40
Ahh its all relative on what things cost. To me a good pack, with what I need is worth it. Buy once, cry once.
Here we got real life metal gear solid snake's I was waiting to see the foldable box LMFAO
*thumbs up*
Love the setup, not very practical for actually backpacking and not sure why you’d need handcuffs maybe I missed something are you LEO but I found it useful for some things I can use backpacking thank you
Dont hang things off your pack. Esp 6 day treks. Buy the correct pack.
Mystninja ; You were never a Marine or Army.
John Ingle your not ment to go in with gear in your cargo pockets. But what do i know. Im not American
Albert Johnson lol. Well there part of the uniform. The not going in with stuff in the cargo pockets. So so you can put things you find in them. I'm always getting told off for putting my gloves in my cargos. It that. It there full. You can't put things in them that you come across. It makes sense to me. People will still think what they think. And there aloud too.
If you really want to, you could just get some small molle dry bags to put on if you find anything. The molle is for everchanging missions. The main pack is to utalized completely
Mystninja, part of the reason why they don't like you putting things in your cargo pockets, is that bulging pockets looks ugly and un-uniform on a parade square. Out in the field everyone put essentials like maps and medical kits in.
Excellent video! It's Molle for a reason. Couldn't agree more.
Thanks - hope you are liking the new content I'm putting out
Lol, bro my daughter said leave a comment, well thanks for the vid, for someone like me with no experience on this kind of thing means a lot, thank you, can’t wait to see your bug out the city backpack
Glad you enjoyed the video!!
Looks like a great set up!
I love it! Still do
Love the planning with your support hand. And I’m definitely jealous of that massive pocket on the side for all the quick grabs. Liked and subbed good video
*thumbs up*v
For splinters in the skin, nail clippers work way better than tweezers. Good idea, never thought to have them in my pack.
*thumbs up*
you didnt even show how you hooked up your weapon to the backpack it was the whole reason i clicked on this video GOD!
That’s why you clicked the video? Not the title saying it’s setting it up not necessarily how to strap a gun on? Weird.
Eberlestock makes some kick ass packs. Would love to get me one
I have a few and never been disappointed!
Nice Video, keep em coming. I would ditch the quick-clot, add an Israeli bandage, a tourniquet, a pair of shear and some hemostatic agent.
Glad you like the video!
Andy, Happy New Year and another outstanding video. It helped to bring in to focus.
What you stated in a previous reply. Keep up the great work lad. Cheers, Mate.
Thanks, Jack! Happy New Years!
Nice set up. I'm not at all familar with these type of back pack set ups but I'm pretty impressed with how much you got in there. 👍
Thanks Robert
Love the pace of this video.
*thumbs up*
That is a nice setup you have and I love the water spout on your bag where you can get to it easily. That 7.62 rifle is looking great too and it is nice to have snacks in your backpack, but I would want more food items in there to survive off of until I could either find fish, or animals to kill and cook.
*thumbs up*
Good job, u got a subscriber, FA kit needs multiples and easier access, you seem to know quality, so next purchase get the Bruton box compass, mil Arty version, then you have 2, remember 1 is none, 2=1..., Rangefinder?, Overall good stuff, I don't understand the context?! So I will check out more vids, so I will tell you I am "OLD" w/ 30+ yrs experience, but you held my interest, and yes I learned! So good job, continue to learn your craft!
*thumbs up*
OUTSTANDING.
THANK YOU
Going out for my first time tomorrow with the CSM. Really helpful video. And gave me some good ideas for some extra stuff to pack. Thanks man! Sub button pushed brother.
Thanks Ryan! Hope you had a great first trip ?!
I bet that thing weighs a ton. I bought a Gunslinger II and was so surprised by how heavy it was. I wish Eberlestock could lighten it up a bit.
It's defiantly not light lol.... but it's all relative and its what I have been used to so it's not too bad for me.
Very good ideas. Thank you very much
*thumbs up* Thank you Thomas
Excellent video. The info was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the upload and the links.
*thumbs up*
I also suggest you carry a portable folding saw.
Good call!
Just purchased this backpack, few different things are on the new version I take it. 1 the molle webbing on front is not stitching it's cut out, 2 the side trekking pole slots don't have a open bottom now, still has hooks on the inside but it's a closed bottom. Kinda disappointed in that TBH. Otherwise looks like a great pack! Excited to get it out on the trail.
MJ - thanks so much for the comment, and talking about the new/different features! Super informative/helpful on a rather older video. It's a great pack, it's still my go to for trecks and weekend trips.
I like the gloves.
They are awesome!
Great set up. Looks like what I need for hunting next year
*thumbs up*
Was looking to see if people mount full scabbards on molle back packs but this is way better for what I'm needing new sub for you brotha!
Thanks Cody! Glad to have you here!
sir, just found your channel, while I'm an old school alice kind of guy, I can see how this set up works for you, gotta admit that was a beut of a weapon, looking forward to seeing more of your content.
*thumbs up* Thanks!
Another great video. I really like your 'dominant' side packing approach too. Thanks.
(My goal is never to get so close to a 'bad guy' you can cuff them.) Evade 'em or, if you must, incapacitate 'em.
hahah *thumbs up*
I would recommend having your IFAK on your body in case you lose your pack or need it without having to doff your pack
*thumbs up*
I like to traveling at the mountains, so we always have to have the properly equipped backpack. What I mean?
first of all I must see the map the distance I have to spend, the time and the weather. because the bag must have the necessary for this particular route. I mustn' t have things in the bug who i don't need. hiking in the mountains is very difficult and we don't need extra weight!!!
So de careful when planning our trip.
*thumbs up*
That’s a nice lookin AR-10
Thanks brother!
Stellar setup and instruction. I'm sure you've got the what's in my bag video too!!
Appreciate that Ian
Good quality stuff , well outfitted , good gun well geared , you are GTG !
Thanks Maurizio!
Bring super glue its good for alot of stuff and it can be used to seal up wounds.
*thumbs up*
nice to see someone so young have some good common sense. Very Very nice 308 !!!!!!!!!!!!!
*thumbs up*
Excellent video and a great overall channel. Stay safe out there. Scott
