      Water BOB - Anyone want to go in on one?

      I found this Water BOB that has gotten good reviews. You put it in your tub and fill it with water, holds like 100 gallons. WaterBOB®: emergency drinking water storage They have a deal where you can buy 4 and get one free. With shipping it works out to about $18.35 each. I'd like one...

      Making a new GHB - What kind of bag?

      I went for a painfully long walk the other day and came to the realization that my current GHB isn't working the way I'd like. It's a laptop-style messenger bag, and while it does great for that sort of thing, it's not a good GHB because it's not comfortable to carry.. Here's what I'm looking...

      Fox 59 news BOB bag

      This morning on Fox 59 they gave descriptions of what we should have in our BOB's. It was a short segment but not too bad. However they certainly did not recommend what firearm you might include...:D

      getting out of indianapolis area in emergency

      I live in the north east indianapolis area and have family in eastern indiana. In the event of SHTH, etc., I'm planning a back road route to get "home" What do you think a person would need to bring? Best gun? I'm perhaps paranoid, but I could see a rough trip in the event of first the...

      My First BOB.

      I'm new to the whole SHTF awareness stuff, and I'm looking to build my first BOB. I guess my questions are: 1) What type of bag? 2) What gear is most important? 3) Where do you stash it? 4) How many of these do you build? 5) Do you build certain BOB's for different situations? 6) Is this hard...

      BOB selection????

      I am in the process of build my BOB. Right now I am using a cheap backpack with a hydration system. I am wondering which pack would be better. A dedicated hiking/camping pack or a more "Tacticool" pack like some thing from Blackhawk or Maxpedition. I kinda like the later of the two because of...

      bugout bag stove recommendations?

      I'm in the process of building a bugout bag for my fiancee and myself. I'm looking at food supplies and I'm thinking MRE's\dehydrated Mountain House food\Freezer bag cooking. So in terms of a stove I am looking at just something to boil water. I'm looking at stoves and I'm debating between...

      Bought a bug out bag at 1500 usgi

      I bought a surplus large molle rucksack and a 3 day assault pack for $90. I was 11m in the army from 95-99 and what a huge improvement they've made in gear. I also bought a molle load bearing vest. They must have done some serious field testing with grunts to design these. Usually if I went...

      SHTF Vehicle?

      Was thinking about this the other day... Who has a spare SHTF vehicle. Old truck, old 4 runner or jeep. Loaded with tools, blankets, hatchets, drinking water, spare fuel etc. Any body have one? If so, what is it? What have you stocked it with for emergencies?

      Bag of Evil and contents

      Like many reading this I am a bag whore and my quest for the perfect BOE (Bag of Evil), the MCS name for our EDC bags, has over the years seen several bags from backpacks to messenger bags. Several years ago I gave up using a backpack for EDC for three reasons. One was that I seldom used both...

      SHTF Vehicle Shotgun

      This could probably go a couple of places but I am putting it in here because the purpose of it is for SHTF. I was thinking about keeping a cheap (<$150), 12 gauge 18'' barrel in my explorer for a SHTF situation. I have a sort of “hidden” compartment under the rear seat where I could keep it...

      My Get Home Bag

      I guess I'll start by saying this is my bag that stays in my truck at all times. I keep a lot of stuff in the back of my Explorer that supplements some of this bag which I will list later. I will also post a link to what my first aid kit consists of instead of completely breaking down my entire...

      Bug Out Addition?

      I was just thinking of adding a laptop into my Bug out kit. One can store insane quantities of info on one. Plus with inverters and solar power options the uses can be endless. Opinions....

      Creating my first BOB ($150 for supplies)

      After doing some reading it makes perfect sense to have a BOB that is always ready to go when you need it. I am not expecting to need it anytime soon, and I am not one to think that zombies will be invading, but a littler preparedness never hurt anyone (much) So, Here's the plan 1) Start from...

      Bug Out Bags

      Just a heads up - Since most of the "Back To School" stuff is on clearance, now is a great time to pick up back packs if you use them to stow your "get from here to there" stuff in your vehicle or packed and tucked in the corner of your closet... I just picked up three for $3.00 bucks. Looks...
