Bug Out Bag Master List (on-going)

Under Shelter and Water please consider the following:

• Renovo Trio water filter - beats the heck out of Lifestraw
• TITAN SurvivorCord - mil-spec paracord that also includes three extra strands; waxed jute that can be used for starting fires, 25 lb. mono-filament fishing line and a conductive wire that is also useful for snares.
• TITAN Two-Sided Emergency Mylar Survival Blankets, 5-Pack - IMO better than the cheapies.
  
• Snugpak Jungle Blanket - in warmer climates it may be a better choice than either a wool blanket or a woobie.
• Men's US Waterproof Ripstop Hooded Nylon Festival Poncho - this is as good or better than a GI Issue poncho which, unlike a rain suit, can also be used for shelter.

In Tools you might consider replacing the P-38 with the larger P-51...which works much better for opening larger cans like #10s...or better yet, have both.

FYI, Titan is a Veteran-owned company.

 

Funny you got this up now. I'm working on a kit for a company, and a lot of what I have been lookin' up made te cut.

 

@arleigh was there one recommendation in that dissertation?

@Brokor asked for additions as he updates this annually, this isn't a discussion about what defense strategy.... unless I missed something in @Brokor's post.

 

I see this file needs a number of pricing updates. If you would like any help doing it, let me know. I will be happy to help.

 

This is a great reference resource! Links to everything! This is a one-stop shopping list and a great starting point for anyone and everyone. You wouldn't even have to leave the house to shop for all this. I had to go through every link to see what was there, what it cost, if it interested me or maybe sparked a few ideas of my own (a rare occurrence),

I’m just assuming it was a name change somewhere along the way, but the listed item comes up as "not available" and "do not know when or if the item will be in stock".
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00L4KEDPS/?tag=survivalmonke-20

But a quick search and here is the item I believe you were referencing.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00L4KDBME/?tag=survivalmonke-20

I know nothing about radios other than PTT and to let go of the PTT button when not talking.The link of the spreadsheet goes to:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007H4VT7A/?tag=survivalmonke-20

...and while viewing the page is shows: There is a newer model of this item: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MAULSOK/?tag=survivalmonke-20

The only difference I see is 5 watt vs. 8 watt, but like I said “I know nothing about radios…”

Anyways, great list and thanks for taking the to put it together.

 

I haven't had it but a few months but I'm quite satisfied with this light right now.

BORUIT V10 Small Powerful Flashlight with 365nm UV Black Light - Super Bright 1000 LM, USB C Rechargeable LED Keychain IPX4 Pocket Flash Light with COB Side Light, Magnet Buzzer- 12 Modes Amazon.com

 

I would go with a single wall stainless water bottle and cup also a lightweight tarp in addition to a poncho

 

A fixed blade knife and a Swiss army folding knife, a compass, a ferro rod, tarp and 50ft. paracord, axe, a folding saw and water purifier and you have it covered. Weight wise you could drop the saw.

 

A little red wagon the haul all of this.....stuff around in.
