$4.10 on ebay for just the bag (no shoulder strap). AWESOME, we got 3 of these for a 9-man squad, and in addition to 10 C's (with bic + plastic fresnel, and 50' paracord), fits whistle (20 cent aluminum), "emergency OTC pharma" in a clear plastic baggy, and things like machetes are carried by our 2 scouts (with smaller 32oz water...they keep it LIGHT:and are pair to 2 of the guys who carry these 3 water + "camping accessories" (small shit that's nice to not be a "group kit" so we can split into three fireteams of 3 men each OR 5 + 4 fireteams (with Squadleader choosing which squad he'll escort, so each squad has a GROUP SHARED "oh fuck" amount of SMALL, LIGH camping-emergency EXTRA survival stuff + BIG waterbottle so they're not always going to our guy who pushes an old bicycle with 50lbs of gear (way easier to ROLL it than to CARRY it, and ya STAY LIGHT / FAST if enemy contact is made.), with rarely-needed spares (like a spare BOLT and "drop-in trigger" if someone cracks theirs, gets a pebble stuck in the trigger parts while shooting prone-position, overheats or ruins a firing-pin or cam-pin in the middle of a fire-fight just replace the WHOLE bolt and worry which part overheated or jammed up LATER), plus *_some "luxury camping / morale & barter" items + FOOD + GALLONS of water on the bike. You don't RIDE the bike, just walk next to it like it's a "pack animal": The SECOND AR308 gunner (or anyone with lightly injured leg(s) ) can REST his upper-body weight on the bike-handles as he pushes/rolls it,_* and since he's toward the rear of the stack/other formation, he can just toss the bike someplace concealed for later retrieval, as he or Squad Leader decides where it's best to position his heavier firepower. The "small EMERGENCY camping /light bare-basics" in this type of bag means we don't put ALL our "eggs in one basket".
* also 45gal 2mil bag, instead of tarps; we keep tarps in that "main" kit. And small wrench/lock-picks + pliers-multi-tool + Sawyerµn-sieves, and only 48oz water...to make space for the other items.
I'm disappointed. I just got the Pathfinder Bottle Bag just to find out it was made in China. I not only paid 30 for the UPS service, but I paid an extra 100 dollars for 'custom taxes', I live in Chinada (former Canada). My order was for 250 aprox and I paid 130 for the delivery (including the tariffs because all of the products were made in China). If you see Dave, please tell him this is sooo wrong, not only for the store, his reputation, but for USA.
Lol I can’t believe you used the word bannock. I’ve never heard anyone from the states use that word before. I’m from Canada and I guess I thought it was more commonly used up this way. Most people I’ve heard mention it from the states have called it fry bread. Anyways awesome video there corporal. They always get me in the mood to go through my gear and make it more manageable. Have a great day bud. Love the little bush craft tips you always got.
As someone who has gone through the Pathfinder School’s Basic and Intermediate courses, I have to say, this load out is about as close to perfect as you can get while carrying minimal gear. This is a brilliant idea and this kit should be in everyone’s vehicle for an emergency.
Thank you for teaching me about the 10C. And I tried it behind the house , and everything you was talking about is TRUE , and work out great ; but it was a little colder at night so I had to get some wool blankets out the house. And I move the fire around the blankets and everything worked great. I live in city (Baltimore , Maryland ) and teaching my grandchildren a new way of live. They close down the boys club, and the recreation center, where I learnt from to be a boy scout.But now it's so much crazy people out there,who can you trust with your children. I respect and trust you corporate corner be safe. And have a blessed day .
By FAR, one of the best videos I have see yet. I loved the fact that this was NOT just another demo video of a product but a video that in my opinion Trained you on what to bring on your first outing and Why you should bring it. Once you got used to doing that I'm sure you would always make sure to have those 10 basic survival items. Then I began to appreciate the product that carried all of those items and then some.There was not one item that wasn't necessary nor would i skimp on any one item. Thank you for this video and I look forward to viewing others.
Great information and presentation! My two cents... The bottle bag has external webbing; which means the preferred 5", fixed blade cutting tool, could be attached to the outside.
My set up which I purchased yrs ago from Pathfinder has two sleeves in back of bag for fixed blades. I have a folding blade in bag and fixed on hip. If I didn’t want fixed on hip, I could put it in back of bag and it would fit perfectly.
CPL Kelly, a couple things to add, by adding an MRE-First Strike all day meal tan TRASH bag around your bottle and tarp wrap, it slides down easy ( kind of like when we were kids and mom put baggies on so our boot go on easy), it also seals at the top in case your cap is loose, you save any spilled water. Add a LID to that cup and store in the zippered cap, I added a piece of elastic to the zippered cap so the cup lid stays put. I also have the bottle stove, when in the plastic bag and at the bottom of the bottle, it slides down easy.
I love the way you put that....."The important take away is to know why you are carrying the 10 C's and how to use them." So many people load up on gear and have no practical knowledge of the usage of each item. That's why I practice and I'm always learning something new or better ways from my own mistakes. I started my own channel for a basic timeline for myself and to document my camp experiences. It is guys like you Dave Canterbury and Grey bearded green beret who have inspired me to get out and enjoy life. For that sir... I thank all of you!
Wow looking back through all this time your gear has changed as far as brand several times but you are extremely consistent with the items you carry. If you make or have a bag made for you now that your doing your own thing I would snatch that up.
Great idea. My mind is already thinking, empty water bottle, put a water filter in it, a signal mirror and whistle would be good additional items as well. Now I'll have one more stuffed small survival bag that never gets used, there's got to be a point where redundancy meets excessive. Or, is that obsessive/compulsive? Maybe hoarding is more to the point. At any rate, it's gotta be a disease of some kind.
I just got the 32 oz cook kit in that bag. I haven't had a chance to use it yet but you gave me some excellent ideas for it. Mine came with the water bottle, nesting cup, round stick stove, glowing ferro rod, enferno fire starters, fish mouth openers and eating utensils. I added the alcohol stove I also purchased from them because it fits perfectly under the stove that came with the kit. I love SRO's gear. Thanks for the tips and I look forward to more!
I really enjoy coming back to some of these older videos of yours! great reminders. I also watch your newer videos and when I get to something I need a refresher on or what to share with a friend I come back to these awesome library you have created!
I've got all of ur videos on a playlist of it's own and refer to them frequently. I have used many of ur setups and techniques/gear on many outings , ur videos are very informative and spot-on. Keep'em coming...great knowledge.
Absolutely EXCELLENt video. The best one yet! I really appreciate you sharing not only "how" to pack everything but "why" you do it and in most cases, why you choose the order of things. I am defiitely going to check out the other videos of yours that I haven't seen yet.
Been viewing your videos for 7 or 8 months and subbed after the first viewing. This is one of your best in terms of useful information. You put out some very practical information, and I find your product recommendations to be well considered. Keep up the " outstanding " work.
The extra room is great. I broke the zippers on a cheap bag trying to stuff what I needed inside. Thank you for the instructional video, Corporal. I always enjoy them and I always learn something.
Always enjoy watching the "no nonsense" CPL KELLY USMC. This was no exception. I was a Hospital Corpsman with the 3rd Marine Division in Vietnam. Thank you for your service!
What blew my mind was what you did with the banana. That was cool. I actually have the one Pathfinder sold yrs ago, it came with the military cup with the cup it sat inside. I bought two small pouches from Amazon and put them on each end which c gave me even more room. I got the idea from someone on RUclips that was advertising a 150+ bag that I wasn’t paying that kind of money for, so I made my own. And it’s just as effective. My snacks I purchased a small toiletry bag and bought some small bungee cords and strapped it to the bottom of bag. I’m rocking and rolling now. Probably about $15 of add ons. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I am enjoying watching your clips on what to pack in different types of conditions. Trying to build my own a little at a time. I'll keep watching to get more information and ideas
I like these bags, I appreciate how you explain to people and still speak in your own way. And Ranger beads is something that backpackers and hikers should be familiar with when they don't have their GPS cellphones to help. Don't want to become lost and alone or naked and afraid lol Great stuff
Y'know that tingly somatic feeling when you get excited about doing something?? I get that from your videos. I was raised in the East Coast and recently moved to Colorado. I never went camping/hiking as a kid, and I've always wanted to go. You make learning things about survival and wildcrafting look super easy and fun. Maybe I'll start trying some stuff a little away from home!
Oorah! I actually learned a few good new tips on this one, even after 50 years of camping, and a decade of that on Active Duty. I won't say which, because that will leave viewers to watch closely and take notes. Thanks for sharing!
Stumbled on this video looking for lightweight packing ideas for motorcycle camping. Well done. Another great feature of the MC3 compass, it is gimbled so it will also work south of the equator. I also carry Bic lighters in my 24 hour bug out bag, but I don't expect them to work every time. Cold temps, gas leaks, or they get broken. Like your video, I back it up with a ferro rod.
Based on this video, I picked up some of the Kodiak Power Cake mix for making bannock. I used a cast iron skillet and a bit of olive oil to "fry" it, and ...WOW! They are really good!!! I just used 1/2 cup of mix and about 1/3 cup water for a denser bread/biscuit like texture and smooshed it nice and flat after I flipped it. It went great with my chicken & rice soup for lunch. These would really be outstanding when in the field. Carbs, lots of protein, and a good amount of fiber, too. OUTSTANDING!!!
Always use precooked Maize flour...PAN to make arepas, this is my h easier then bannock. And have these things always in a old plastic bottle...never get wet and don't spill.
I love this video! So many hacks. I made my own canteen kit, and it’s pretty much the same thing, but this one has a few things I need to put in mine, and the arrangement of it all makes more sense. Thank you so much. I also need to learn how to use pacing beads, and I need to train again using compass. I haven’t done orienteering since Boy Scouts. Videos like this are great reminders of those important skills. No substitute for getting out there and doing it. Keep up the great work sir. Thanks again.
Amazing, sir! Got the core kit elements narrowed down. That certainly leaves the option of keeping the 10 C's core kit at your side (literally) and can then place extra carry-on gear into a small back pack; if someone wants to carry extra gear, necessities and etc. And, if something happens that one needs to dump gear and go light, just hide the back pack (or whatever) and take off with the new PF bottle with the 10 C's core kit. And that certainly exposes good planning methods because I like having more gear but I do understand that something could happen and cause someone to move light.
Great video corporal I purchased 2 of the kits and made 2 10 Cs kits plus a couple comfort items and all items fit good in the bags and the weight is very minimal
Wowwww!!!!! All that in that small easy to carry package!!! Idk what to say other then OUTSTANDING!!!!!! Thank you Corp. Kelly for all you do, I hope Utube pulls the stick outt their butt soon and notifications start again!!! Best of luck to you and little(medium)getting bigger everyday dude!!!
I will be getting this bag and setting it up just like u. Thank u for explaining what to do with the 10 items love they why u packed the tarp in around tapered water bottle. No ill carry more to be better off dam good info here. This has become one of my favorite places to go to many good things here folks
Well corporal this old sergeant major is mighty impressed only thing I do differently is I carry more on the man ( on my person) fair winds and following seas.
Your confusing yourself for a Master Gunnery Sergeant. We all know Sergeant Majors don't carry there own gear. I've waited my whole life to say that. ..lol.
@@Devil0983 Master Gunnery Sergeant would use it as a training moment, dress you out with his gear, and then have you carry it and re-equip just like he had it "for training". Sergeant Major would just have all his gear in a big sea bag, find a sturdy Marine and tell him to hump it for him. Either way, no one would complain. I humped the pack of a CWO5 during a long night move, no complaints. Those guys are legends.
This was a really good video brother. Though not in the army anymore, I am seriously trying to put together a compact system that I can move out with if needed. I liked this video very much.
I know this is an old video but, I wanted to mention that I liked it overall. Lots of good info in this. I can see that there are things that I need to ad to my canteen kit. Mine is the smaller one by Condor. It's designed for the 40oz Kleen Kanteen. Which is something I was wondering about with your kit. Just think of all the room you would have in that larger bag if you used a 40oz Kleen Kanteen instead. Small IFAK maybe? That beefier tarp you were talking about. More food as well.
Nice video. I took the old bottle bag and laced the Molly straps together . I still have the 32 oz bottle kit. plus I can carry the poncho TARP as cover with stakes and more redundancy fire and tools items.
Your videos are bad ass! I have learned so much from watching them (as well as others). I have a waterproof lighter case so it doesn’t get wet and more important so the button doesn’t snag on something and all the gas releases rendering it useless. Definitely gonna check out that carrier! As always thanks for the content!
Great kit. The only thing I couldn't understand was rolling the tarp around the bottle without using the relief for the bulkiness of the tarp's grommets. And, wouldn't you want the relief space at the top, for ease of extraction, anyway? Just wondering about those things. Edit: After viewing the kit vid again, one thing I have thought of to mod the kit is to have the flat stick be fatwood (for durability and firestarting), and form it into a netting needle shuttle (for making nets and even serve as a hobo reel as well). The multipurpose aspect of the single mod is a powerful force multiplier when combined with the inner strands of the paracord option for cordage. Just remember to wrap some small size 16 trout hooks in a tape made pouch, under the cordage you fasten around the shuttle. I also pair size 2/0 circle hooks for catching bonifide meal-sized fish from my panfishing adventures, so, I'd wrap those up on the other side. I use a dropshot rig for panfishing, and a splitshot rig for landing meals, so pack some small weights too (I just use the classic weights for both applications, so hopefully there is room for them inside, or you could expand the kit with a molle attachment).
Great idea. I love this bag i got a whole 64oz container and basics in the pouch. The big container is a tight fit but your set up is really a great idea i may have to copy you, peace.
Good kit idea, thanks! I really like the food tins. The packaging makes fluid intake a little more difficult. Maybe there's a way to attach the shelter (i.e., tarp) to the outside of the bag to make water access easier. ? All in all, good job with the video! SemperFi!
absolutely awesome Corporal! I'm pretty sure the wife is getting me this for CHRISTMAS... I will be using your method with this bag for sure! thanks for sharing and great video as always!
I know it's probably insanely simple, but if one of these videos could include a quick demo on how you made the duct tape holder for those needles on your trekker, that would make me feel better about doing that myself. it really is I great way to store needles! I copied your 5c'S shelter kit besides the Trekker cuz I still need to get it but that is going to be my hiking folder for sure.
Greetings amigo. I'm an old former navy destroyer man but served in a special warfare unit for a couple of years back in the '70s. I would like to see a video of the super solar still (not the regular solar still) if possible. Much higher water output, as in enough to live on perhaps, and not much more trouble to fashion. It seems not too many people are even aware of this tool for survival. Thanks. Informative as always.
Solid kit man. I like the modular nature and upgrades you leave for others. Like the cordage wood, I would sub in fatwood or switching out some of the heavier items for lighter options. Considering the size of the bag, adding a few more items to expand the idea of the 10 C's. My favourite takeaway, using the gorilla tape on the ferro rod. I've always used epoxy to fix on a handle but never thought of this option.
Really really nice idea with the bandannas. Like it and will be using that. I'd probably strap the tarp on the outside molle webbing with a couple of straps myself as lack of quick access to the water bottle would drive me nuts. Though it was another impressive trick to pack it all in this super small all in kit.

I like that he didn’t say “and put the bottle and tarp in” then edit to the end, he was genuine in showing the struggle to put the bottle in.

Looking at mine right now. Mine is set up differently but still rocking the ✋🏾🤚🏾 C’s.

I still love going back to these older videos time and again. This one is one of my favorites!

A very clever kit. With the mollie webbing, you can add a pouch or two to hold a few more items if you ever have a need to.
All these years later I still go back to vids like this to reference. Awesome content man
Wow looking back through all this time your gear has changed as far as brand several times but you are extremely consistent with the items you carry. If you make or have a bag made for you now that your doing your own thing I would snatch that up.
OUTSTANDING! I would add a Sawyer filter straw and maybe a few purification tabs into the SS tapered bottle. Otherwise, Perfect
Excellent video.
Extremely clever and resourceful
Really liked the tip with the bandanas in the shoulder strap
👍
Great idea. My mind is already thinking, empty water bottle, put a water filter in it, a signal mirror and whistle would be good additional items as well.

I've found that I can slide a heavy duty Mora into the molly webbing.This gives you a fixed blade knife.
I really enjoy coming back to some of these older videos of yours! great reminders. I also watch your newer videos and when I get to something I need a refresher on or what to share with a friend I come back to these awesome library you have created!
I've got all of ur videos on a playlist of it's own and refer to them frequently. I have used many of ur setups and techniques/gear on many outings , ur videos are very informative and spot-on. Keep'em coming...great knowledge.
Excellent job packing your kit especially liked the way you stowed the bandanas.

I crammed a USGI poncho in the bottom of mine. Works all the same. Turns out to be a nice kit I can either pack or carry when foraging. Good to go!
I have two bags similar to this on the outside of my get home bag. For the stick inside your bank line, you could use a flat hunk of fatwood.
Or I use Walmart cards or anything, card wise.
Been viewing your videos for 7 or 8 months and subbed after the first viewing. This is one of your best in terms of useful information. You put out some very practical information, and I find your product recommendations to be well considered. Keep up the " outstanding " work.
I really liked this video. You explained calmly without getting boring or redundant.
The extra room is great. I broke the zippers on a cheap bag trying to stuff what I needed inside. Thank you for the instructional video, Corporal. I always enjoy them and I always learn something.
Just bought this set! Thanks for this! Really appreciate you showing how you packed it all in. Old video but it keeps on giving.
Always enjoy watching the "no nonsense" CPL KELLY USMC. This was no exception. I was a Hospital Corpsman with the 3rd Marine Division in Vietnam. Thank you for your service!
I randomly stumbled on your videos and have been binge watching them. You’re amazing! I need to practice.
A gadget pouch works well to hold a smaller IFAK and could be on the side of the bottle kit or the belt.

You are amazing! Ingenious use of space. Incredible info. Thank you for all your videos! I learn a lot from every single one!
Corp. Kelly your precise manner is perfect for istruction. Vet to Vet jar heads rule.
A few ranger bands would make wrapping the canteen up in the canvas easier and I'm sure they would come In handy for other things.
I go into Walmart in the clearance and buy bicycle tudes and cut my own ranger bands and I use them to wrap everything that needs it.
Great video as always Cpl. a extra small pouch for compass protection would be a worthy addition I think

Always use precooked Maize flour...PAN to make arepas, this is my h easier then bannock. And have these things always in a old plastic bottle...never get wet and don't spill.
Good amount of fiber?? Oh great... now I have to look forward to avoiding piles of bannock poop along the trail!! lol
Jumbo try cane rat stew or ox tail soup.
I love this video! So many hacks. I made my own canteen kit, and it’s pretty much the same thing, but this one has a few things I need to put in mine, and the arrangement of it all makes more sense. Thank you so much. I also need to learn how to use pacing beads, and I need to train again using compass. I haven’t done orienteering since Boy Scouts. Videos like this are great reminders of those important skills. No substitute for getting out there and doing it. Keep up the great work sir. Thanks again.
Agreed
From one USMC Corporal vet (me) to another, excellent videos! Keep it up! Never tired of them! Semper Fi!!!
Many thanks, Corporal! This is exactly the size I've been needing, after being frustrated with a Rothco 10"x4"/6"x4" water bottle pouch.
I've watched a couple of your vids and one can always tell a 'been there, done that' person. Semper Fi.
I have a lot of catching up to do. This kit in it's original form is on sale for a meer $54 on the site. So glad to have found the channel. TY
Amazing, sir! Got the core kit elements narrowed down. That certainly leaves the option of keeping the 10 C's core kit at your side (literally) and can then place extra carry-on gear into a small back pack; if someone wants to carry extra gear, necessities and etc. And, if something happens that one needs to dump gear and go light, just hide the back pack (or whatever) and take off with the new PF bottle with the 10 C's core kit.
And that certainly exposes good planning methods because I like having more gear but I do understand that something could happen and cause someone to move light.
Corporal's Corner, The 11th and 12th item in my basic kit. Thanks buddy, keep up the outstanding work.
thanks for watching. More to come
This is
A way to get my family started and also keep inside our vehicles.
As always... Well explained and illustrated.... Thank you sir.
Another OUTSTANDING video Corporal! Very informative and well presented. Thank you.
Very nice set up and compact and innovative! I will have to build one following Your set up, impressive!!!! Thank You
Great video corporal I purchased 2 of the kits and made 2 10 Cs kits plus a couple comfort items and all items fit good in the bags and the weight is very minimal
This thing is great! Thanks for a really good presentation. What a perfect size.
Beautiful review, and storage idea's for a excellent hiking bag! Thank you for sharing.
Wowwww!!!!! All that in that small easy to carry package!!! Idk what to say other then OUTSTANDING!!!!!! Thank you Corp. Kelly for all you do, I hope Utube pulls the stick outt their butt soon and notifications start again!!! Best of luck to you and little(medium)getting bigger everyday dude!!!
I will be getting this bag and setting it up just like u. Thank u for explaining what to do with the 10 items love they why u packed the tarp in around tapered water bottle. No ill carry more to be better off dam good info here. This has become one of my favorite places to go to many good things here folks
I like this new bottle bag the design is much better. I have the smaller one now I'm going to get this one.
That was creative AF. Well done Pathfinder team
Well corporal this old sergeant major is mighty impressed only thing I do differently is I carry more on the man ( on my person) fair winds and following seas.
Your confusing yourself for a Master Gunnery Sergeant. We all know Sergeant Majors don't carry there own gear. I've waited my whole life to say that. ..lol.
@@Devil0983 Bah ha ha ha ha ha...... No Offense to the Sgt Maj, but that's funny as hell.....
@@Devil0983 Master Gunnery Sergeant would use it as a training moment, dress you out with his gear, and then have you carry it and re-equip just like he had it "for training". Sergeant Major would just have all his gear in a big sea bag, find a sturdy Marine and tell him to hump it for him. Either way, no one would complain. I humped the pack of a CWO5 during a long night move, no complaints. Those guys are legends.
Corporal, All your videos are well thought out and well put together. Outstanding job. Hooah!
This was a really good video brother. Though not in the army anymore, I am seriously trying to put together a compact system that I can move out with if needed. I liked this video very much.
I know this is an old video but, I wanted to mention that I liked it overall. Lots of good info in this. I can see that there are things that I need to ad to my canteen kit. Mine is the smaller one by Condor. It's designed for the 40oz Kleen Kanteen. Which is something I was wondering about with your kit. Just think of all the room you would have in that larger bag if you used a 40oz Kleen Kanteen instead. Small IFAK maybe? That beefier tarp you were talking about. More food as well.
Great content brother. It should be illegal to dislike this video, Thank you for making it!
New sub, look forward to watching your older content. Not sure why I hadn't found you before!
thank you for the sub. Now share the tribal knowledge
Yep, I'm a new subscriber too.
This is definitely something worth building. Amazon is in my near future for sure.
Hi Corporal. I loved this video. I was looking for ideas for my car kit, and this is it!!! Thank you!
Absolutely amazing kit you put together! Thanks for sharing...
Super vid. Lots of detail packed into a few minutes. Always pick up something new on your videos. Thx for sharing.
Thanks Sir. That's the best small kit i've seen so far.
Nice video. I took the old bottle bag and laced the Molly straps together . I still have the 32 oz bottle kit. plus I can carry the poncho TARP as cover with stakes and more redundancy fire and tools items.
Great review! You know, you could conceivably replace the little bit of wood under the bank line with fat wood. Just a thought.
Excellent video..so well explained..as you always do..thanks
Outstanding video.....freedom for all people...
Your videos are bad ass! I have learned so much from watching them (as well as others). I have a waterproof lighter case so it doesn’t get wet and more important so the button doesn’t snag on something and all the gas releases rendering it useless. Definitely gonna check out that carrier!
As always thanks for the content!
This is very informative no nonsense straight forward review. Thank you sir. Subscribed.
Just ordered my path finder bottle bag today, I look forward to turning it into a day hike kit.
Great kit. The only thing I couldn't understand was rolling the tarp around the bottle without using the relief for the bulkiness of the tarp's grommets. And, wouldn't you want the relief space at the top, for ease of extraction, anyway? Just wondering about those things.
Edit: After viewing the kit vid again, one thing I have thought of to mod the kit is to have the flat stick be fatwood (for durability and firestarting), and form it into a netting needle shuttle (for making nets and even serve as a hobo reel as well). The multipurpose aspect of the single mod is a powerful force multiplier when combined with the inner strands of the paracord option for cordage. Just remember to wrap some small size 16 trout hooks in a tape made pouch, under the cordage you fasten around the shuttle.
I also pair size 2/0 circle hooks for catching bonifide meal-sized fish from my panfishing adventures, so, I'd wrap those up on the other side.
I use a dropshot rig for panfishing, and a splitshot rig for landing meals, so pack some small weights too (I just use the classic weights for both applications, so hopefully there is room for them inside, or you could expand the kit with a molle attachment).
Good info with a bandana tip at the end. I'm adding ...Always carry water purificatin tablets.
Great idea. I love this bag i got a whole 64oz container and basics in the pouch. The big container is a tight fit but your set up is really a great idea i may have to copy you, peace.
It works and can be adjusted per the individuals needs, thanks for watching
Great review, and ideas! I have always been accused of carrying to much, but better safe than sorry in my book. Thanks for sharing, God bless
If anyone ever teased me about packing to much I'd put a 5lb rock in there backpack when they weren't looking.
Excelente... muy práctica la manera de llevar lo básico en un espacio reducido.
Gracias por compartir!!!
Good kit idea, thanks! I really like the food tins. The packaging makes fluid intake a little more difficult. Maybe there's a way to attach the shelter (i.e., tarp) to the outside of the bag to make water access easier. ? All in all, good job with the video! SemperFi!
absolutely awesome Corporal! I'm pretty sure the wife is getting me this for CHRISTMAS... I will be using your method with this bag for sure! thanks for sharing and great video as always!
I know it's probably insanely simple, but if one of these videos could include a quick demo on how you made the duct tape holder for those needles on your trekker, that would make me feel better about doing that myself. it really is I great way to store needles! I copied your 5c'S shelter kit besides the Trekker cuz I still need to get it but that is going to be my hiking folder for sure.
Greetings amigo. I'm an old former navy destroyer man but served in a special warfare unit for a couple of years back in the '70s. I would like to see a video of the super solar still (not the regular solar still) if possible. Much higher water output, as in enough to live on perhaps, and not much more trouble to fashion. It seems not too many people are even aware of this tool for survival. Thanks. Informative as always.
Solid kit man. I like the modular nature and upgrades you leave for others. Like the cordage wood, I would sub in fatwood or switching out some of the heavier items for lighter options. Considering the size of the bag, adding a few more items to expand the idea of the 10 C's. My favourite takeaway, using the gorilla tape on the ferro rod. I've always used epoxy to fix on a handle but never thought of this option.
Great channel. I’d take a few feet of bank line, and wrap around the bottle/tarp (to decrease diameter) to make insertion easier into bag.
Thank you Corps. Interesting, enjoyable and no waffle. A great vid.
Really really nice idea with the bandannas. Like it and will be using that.
I'd probably strap the tarp on the outside molle webbing with a couple of straps myself as lack of quick access to the water bottle would drive me nuts. Though it was another impressive trick to pack it all in this super small all in kit.
Nice job, great kit I gotta add that to my gear. Quick get away & live!
I'm a new subscriber. I enjoy your organized, concise, to the point videos.
Another great video, thanks Marine!
You can't got wrong with those Walmart tarps, and I really like those tins at the bottom of the water bottle great idea!!
Great rundown Corp! Always nice to see you out and about.
now that's the way you improvise, adapt, and overcome. outstanding Teufel Hunden.
One thing i like to add to my small kits like this is circle hooks and maybe even some fishing line.
Corporal, your presentations are Professional Quality. Well Done.
I really like this set style for my cooking set in the self reliance outfitters website
