(Before It's News)

Irish-7 was nice enough to share his survival kit/bug out bag system with all of Rourke’s Patriot’s – that’s you. He sent this in response to my article http://modernsurvivalonline.com/redoing-my-get-home-bags/.

Thanks Irish-7!!!

 - Rourke

As mentioned in my post, attached is the listing of the different size kits that I put together in the past 18 months. Some things to keep in mind:
 
1) My Survival Kits are backpack / rucksacks with mainly camping items.
2) My Bug Out Bags are mainly food and clothing, as if we would be staying indoors.
3) Webgear / Buttpack is my “Battle Rattle”, the pistol belt, vest type suspenders with ammo pouches (holding survival items because I attached the ammo cases to the belt, anyway. Also, canteens, and a buttpack (civilian fanny pack) that holds all kids of necessities.
4) Ruger 10/22 Takedown Rifle came with such a neat bag, with so much additional space, that I converted it to a survival kit.
5) S&W Governor Pistol Bag is a military map/photo case beefed up with additional survival items. The Survival Tin (mirrored after the British Special Air Service Survival Tine) is a Cabela’s wallet case filled with small goodies. I have the kit inside the Governor Bag.
6) To save time, I purchased self contained cans and bottles that were already filled with survival items. I deal with a company down your way, CH Kadels/BUDK/Kennesaw Cutlery. THEY HAVE GREAT STUFF!
 
Let me know if you need clarification. I did not write out my Every Day Carry. I was always one of these guys that had a ton of stuff in my pockets, way before I was a “prepper”. Thirty years in the Army afforded me more pockets (and reasons) to be prepared.
