BOB/survival pack. Something everyone should carry.

the general army navy store on redwood in taylorsville sells these individual packets of drinking water-- i have a few of those stuffed in my bag-- and a good water filter system that i can pump from anywhere i find water (i dont like the taste from the tablets)

Iodine Tablets do taste like butt I agree.. I switched to Aqua Muira and the taste is 100X better. Viruses can get by filters so be careful with that.. I use a home made filter to get out the big junk and then use tablets or liquid Aqua Mura..

do you remove it from vehicle every time you get out

some SOB breaks your window know he has it.

I don't understand what you are talking about:confused:

oh, never mind, I guess we shouldn't try to be prepared in case someone might steal it.

This is a good consideration. For me, my vehicle is in a secure location at work (posted guard and fences) and while at home is locked in my garage. If I am in an area that is not secure, the gun comes with me in a holster (often just to compliment the other gun I have on me). I also have a lock box in the jeep that is fairly secure.

Everything is in a very handy backpack that is easy to pull in and out of the vehicle.
 
Great reply's and useful idea's you guy's :greg:

I hide mine pretty well for the most part and it is very doubtful that someone will steal it right before you REALLY need it. If it does get ripped off for whatever reason most of this stuff (aside from firearms) isn't going to kill the budget to replace. I'll bet one could put together a well stocked bob for under $50 if you're a bargain shopper and that's cheap insurance imo.

If I plan to be more that a mile or so away from the vehicle in the back country I carry mine without thinking twice.
