  • This week on Tactical Rifleman I wanted to cover what I carry in my “Red Bag.” Some people would call it a “Bug Out Bag” or “Get Home Bag.” I’m not big on those names, as it gives thoughts that I am some nut case Prepper. That is not the case. I am just a retired Green Beret that has had “preparedness” beat all the way down into my DNA.
    After our “Hiking Bag” video did so well; we got a lot of comments asking for me to show what was in my “Bug Out Bag.” A lot of students that attend our courses, likewise, wanted me to do a video about my “Bug Out Bag.” So, OK; here it is, but don’t bitch because I didn’t show you any need secret kit for you to buy or any “magical” piece of gear that you just HAVE to get. Nope. Just my bag of stuff that I want to have with me.
    So, this minimalist bag is going to really let down all the survivalists that follow our channel. Sorry about that. However, on the flip side, a lot of our other viewers are also gonna scream that I have WAY too much crap to drag around with me all over the planet. So, either way, I loose. Except, that I don’t care. This is what I carry in my vehicle. It is currently in my jeep; as I just returned from a trip to Memphis to teach a course. It’s a 4 hour drive, one way. Never touched the bag the whole weekend. Didn’t bother me a bit. However, if something had happened, it was there for me, to make my life easier.
    I hope you enjoy the video, and I really do look forward to reading all the comments from all our viewers out there. I’m hoping there are lots of suggestions for other great items that I might have missed, as I do still have a bit of room left. However, I have a feeling that 90%of the suggestions will be for items that I already have stashed in my vehicles. I wasn’t joking when I said that Jeep is loaded down with great gear.
    To help you out finding some of these items, before you ask, here is a list of links to most of the items:

      My bug out's even smaller (might upsize it a little after seeing this vid, though). I have several tiers of prepper stuff.
      Tier 1 is stuff I'd absolutely require, if dropped in the middle of the forest. For example, alcohol wipes, sterile gauze and waterproof tape aren't found in nature. There's a pot in there too, for boiling water and cooking. It all fits in a side bag, about 1/3rd the size of his backpack.
      Tier 2 is stuff to last months in the middle of the forest. Things like portable shovel, saw, hatchet, ammo, rifle, spotting scope, etc. This is roughly the maximum I can carry. Not bug out.
      Tier 3 is everything else, including entertainment. Stuff you need so you don't go insane and blow your brains out, 5 years into a situation that hasn't resolved itself. Not portable.

    Karl: Great video, as always.
    Might I make a suggestion (or two). It will only take up a tiny (tiny) bit of space and will be light.
    An essential bit of kit is a sewing kit. In the sewing kit have a range of needles (sack needle, sail needle, leather needle, carpet needle). They can be invaluable when you are repairing your rucksack, boots or your tarp. When traversing down "shit creek" repairs to body AND equipment will aways be necessary. Replace cotton with 0.14 Dynama fishing line. Also include darning thread and darning wool for essential sock repair. The French army may "march on its stomach", as Napoleon said, but the British Army marches on its feet. Yes, we are strange like that.
    For purposes of a darning "mushroom" use half an old tennis ball (the inner rubber bit, you understand). Oh, and if anybody out there does not know how to darn a sock or a tear or sew on a button, best learn now. It does not take long but you need to know how to do it.
    In the wilderness, in my experience, the first things to break are: Your shoelaces; your socks; your boots, the skin on your hands and feet, and any zips. If you look after your feet, your feet will look after you. A selection of spare buttons can repair any busted zip problems. I also keep a few spare replacement zip fasteners of different sizes in my sewing kit. Again, takes up virtually no space. Note spare shoelaces (of course, 550 will do). Since I have started using Ironlace I have never had any breakages.
    On the same subject of running repairs, I strongly recommend a Yank product, namely Shoe Goo. This is brilliant stuff for repairs, be it your footwear,.... tarp, coat,...or anything else for that matter. You can buy a tiny tube of the stuff. However, it is also a brilliant accelerant. If you cannot start a fire with this stuff, then you should not be let out into the wilderness at all.
    Over and out!!
    Keep making the fantastic and educational films. Love the tip about the coffee by the way.
    Best wishes, from the town with "Four Thousand holes."

    • @southerncomfort7490
      @southerncomfort7490 Год назад

      @@m.e.3614 I take your point M.E. It is, of course, good to make items multi-purpose. Just one question though: Have you ever tried making a repair with the awl on the Leatherman Surge? I really don't recommend it. Sometimes the proper kit, especially if it is light, is the one you need. There are no substitutes, This is why, for centuries, the British Tommy carried his 'Housewife' (ie sewing kit). Good enough for them,..... good enough for me.

I was going to join but he explained after Vietnam and Korea he didn’t want his children to be in the military . But still had 2 sisters join . Anyway he was a Drill instructor & trained Marine Corp. Officers . Spent WW2 in Japanese prison camps in Burma , like bridge on the river Kwai . One of the first to land at Inchon , Korea . Fought in the Chosin Battle . In Lebanon in the 50’s . Adviser in the early stages of the Vietnam War . Very Proud and Honorable Man . Would like to get his Service Records and Copies of his Medals . Maybe you could do a tutorial for those of us that would like to keep their Dad’s Proud Service Alive . He passed in 1986 but is still recorded in the U.S.S. Houston as one of the Survivors .

Almost every video I watch never has shoes mentioned. What the hell are you supposed to do if you’re in a business suit or a pair of shorts and flip-flops and get stranded 30 miles from home? I’d say this is a lot more practical than worrying about whether you can make fire or not.

      Karl has never been a homeless traveler.
      He is telling you things like you should suscribe to Gaia GPS, which is absurd since you can download topo and terrain maps to store offline from google maps alone, for free... and he is also promoting that you use a small ass pack in which you dont have enough space to even carry food or adequate water for 72 hours......Karl is misleading you and acting like a tough ass.
      If you are planning for a 72 hour trek, or a 200 mile trek which will be longer use at least a 50 liter pack. You're not going to go out of your way to find creeks and streams, and even if you do you need water carriers. And no contrary to popular belief you dont need personal hygiene that much, a younger guy only needs gold bond, water and a wash cloth.
      I think people are too scared to criticize a green beret. Most regular people, and even veterans need to carry water, food and clothing/water proofing and that is primary. 1 mid sized water bottle is laughable. And your most likely not going to need a fire in a 72 hour or 200 mile (much longer than 72 hours) trek unless its freezing.
      He'll get you in a bad position if you listen to this video.

I just have to stay alive. It's way easier on the back, legs, and feet. Also, you don't look like you're storming the castle. It's great to blend in, and look unassuming. Great video!

    Can’t get enough of your content! My whatcuwannacallit bag stays in the truck. I live in the mountains. It is a little excessive for casual hiking in terms of gear, but I test it every time I go for a hike and am always ready. People looked at my SAM splint sideways until I immobilized a 4 year old’s wrist at day care. Cool kit is a doorstop without proper training and experience. Anyone who carries this stuff should get both. Bag organization is a great way to pull out non-essential gear if the situation dictates. Just keep track of any consumables so it is always ready otherwise you can count on planning your emergencies and always be left in the wind.

    - Use your cellphone calendar function and plug in the expiration dates of your meds and batteries.
    - Toothpaste expires also so I would put a full tube in and rotate it with that in your bathroom. When you run out in the bathroom, take the one in your bag and buy a new one for the bag.
    - Rite in the Rain makes an excellent .9mm pencil like we used to get in the military, I highly recommend its a companion to your Rite in the Rain pen.
    - The bad thing about duct tape is it looses it's adhesivety when you reapply it, so I don't recommend taping it all over other items to save space and weight. I have a full or partial roll and deal with it.
    - I would carry the survival knife at the top of the bag on the inside or attached outside the bag or on me.
    - Walmart sells the survival food bricks that are similar to the lifeboat rations.
    - Get the largest heavy duty trash bags you can find, not the little kitchen bags. I also have huge tri-wall shrouds that are huge and make perfect shelters in a pinch, they're much thicker than any trashbag you'll find and are clear. They come in rolls of 50 or 100 and are not cheap.

    Great video. This info is perfect for the vast majority of people who bug out or want to get out for the weekend. Everyone has different tolerances and needs That will tremendously dictate weight capacity. It's best to get real world experience. it also depends on application if your pack is for 2-3 days 10-30lbs max is all you need. if you live out of it and want to be independent realistically between 80lbs and 120lbs. when i was younger about 20 or so i decided to live out of a hiking pack i did this for 3-4 years. when i first started i had about 40lbs of gear. As i learned more and grew stronger my tolerance for weight increased i had many creature comforts. My last year living in a backpack i was carrying between 80lbs- 120lbs and walking 20-30 miles a day. It was not difficult as i have been doing it for a while. true don't get bogged down by lots of weight. If you push yourself and challenge yourself you will be amazed at what you "can" and "can't" do. yes it was tough but well worth it .Most important items lighter, Rechargeable head lamp, Fixed blade, Tent,tarp, jet boil, Zip-ties, superglue,all-tool, rubber bands tons of socks boxers Trauma kit, bear mace, radio. life straw, i had also a potato bag that had lots of dry food and a sleeping bag. I traveled across the states and in south America hoped frights and hitchhiked. chaotic freedom is fun in small doses, It's a hard life but one worth liven

To carry a bag that's empty just in case and to carry other provisions you find along the way. It's something that we all forget, self included, that knowledge is incredibly portable and weighs nothing. You have a well-thought-out kit there that suits your individual needs.

    I don’t tend to carry a Bug Out Bag (I’m rarely far enough out to worry about not getting back to civilisation), but I always carry an Emergency Kit in the car.
    Torches, first aid, window breaker, lifesaver blanket, jump kit etc. (In the UK we have limits on EDC - nothing that can be classed as an offensive weapon, not even multitools as they have a locking blade 🙄).
    My wife always mocked me for the Prep Kit, thinking I was being stupid getting it all.
    Last month we were first on scene to a real nasty RTA. The driver was unconscious and a kid was trapped in the back of the car. Engine started to light up. I grabbed the bag and headed straight in.
    Wife went at the engine with my Fire Extinguisher; whilst I used Z-Rex on the windows and seatbelts to get the kid and driver out.
    We had the fire out, the people out of the car and first aid started, before the First Responders were on scene.
    It takes very little effort to carry kit in your car, but the right gear can save a life.
    When we finally got home, she looked at me over a stiff drink and admitted I was right to carry it all. Don’t think she’ll be taking the piss anymore 😉

      Mmm, i get it, but try counting on your vehicle if it brakes on you and you have to leave it. Bugout bags are supposed to be the last resource of tools you will have, need, use and be able to take with you on foot if everything else fails. I actually dont have one setup, i have almost everything I can ever need on hand in my vehicle and an empty bag so I can fill it up and go according to the scenario. But maybe I will make a basic pack so I have less things to pack if i find myself on that nasty and creepy situation.

    I can tell by the level at witch you wear your belt line that you have not only wisdom but the actual ability to-do what you're talking about you can tell alot about a man by were he wears his pants.

      @@jakehansen3418 That doesn't make any sense, where your belt sits does not determine your physical strength nor anything else for that matter.

    I need to watch this video 20 or 30 times to make sure I have everything. I need to pack a bag for my wife, I need bags for my daughters, I need bags for the grandkids. Excellent video, thanks Karl!

      Glad you enjoyed it. Dig through the comment section, and one guy even made a detailed list of all my gear... I don't even have that. Also, in our video archive, you can find an older video about the bag I keep in my daughter's car, and a newer video about this same Bug Out Bag, but what I carry during the colder part of the year. Situations change, like weather, and your load out should change to reflect changes in situation. THanks for watching, TR.
