Holy cripes. Checked out the Bug Out Bag today and it was embarrassingly ill-equipped. No fork, no multi-tool, no toothbrush or toothpaste, not enough food, no batteries, no flashlight, no poncho, no knife at all, no quarters, no water bottle, holy shit NO FIRE, to name some oversights. Filled it up right quick with 3 types of fire, 2 water bottles, a CRKT spork, tooth gear, the HAKET, a Mora knife, more socks, more undies, another t-shirt, cans of tuna, packets of soup mix.
Still need to add soap, deodorant, a poncho, the old bivy sack, quarters, TP, a solar battery charger.
What did it already have in it? A PUR water purifier, a self-inflating mattress, a Snugpack desert sleeping bag, MREs, plastic bags, clothing, an Esbit stove, etc.
Truth is, a much better pack is needed. Decided to go with the DRAGO Assault Pack which can be had online at US Cavalry for $49.95 and gets 5 very solid reviews. It's cheap, which I like. Has a very sturdy top handle, which I like. Has lots of webbing, which makes for expansion. I have the Drago roll-up pack and it rocks.
Will post more when the upgraded BOB is 100% complete.
