Default What do you put in a bug-out bag?
A popular topic on gun fora is what to put in that "bug-out" bag. To definitively answer the question, we took the top 3% of the responses (meaning the things most often deemed to be absolutely essential), and made a list of those items. We then assembled them into a single pack, at the 2008 SHOT show. The result is shown below:

Are you saying that pack contains an AK and as much steel core 7.62x39 that will fit inside?

Nah. You should see what people think they need to have with them at all times ... more than a pack-mule could carry. One gun for this, one gun for that, 3,000 rounds of ammo .... blah blah blah

But the pack was a hoot! I wore it around awhile.

Too Funny. Looks like you need a dog team too. Or do you have one in that bag?
