Just wanna say, i took a bullet during a home invasion 3 weeks ago, cop had a Bradley (didn't know the name but I instantly recognize it because I was staring at the damn thing.) Officer slapped on a chest seal and my ass was in that ambulance not long after.
Hope you recover quick and I am glad you're okay!
Prayers for you sir. Speedy recovery
@@kierseq5696 physical part is easy, I get kidney stones on the regular and I can actually say wholeheartedly a gunshot ain't as bad lol. Mentally however is the real struggle. Appreciate the love though.
Hope you doing well, not so much for the dirtbag who shot you.
@@yoursafeplace8476 I took one in the left leg 15 years ago. Dislocated my femur 2 years ago… 10 times worse lol
Nice video, but let me correct one EXTREMELY IMPORTANT INFO: the duct tape. You surely want to KEEP THE TAPE, specially for an active shooter scenario (I would suggest to even PACK MORE of it). The tape can be used to make chest seals (small piece of plastic, tape 3 sides, 1 side open for the vent) that are very important to prevent pneumothorax on open chest wounds. The tape is also excellent for stabilizing the neck/head, both with regular cervical collar (tie across the forehead to both sides of the pad/litter), and it also helps to fix improvised “neck devices” for the transport of the victims. The tape also makes excellent improvised wound closures: any fabric, even some rip-off clothes, tied with duct tape, help to stop the bleedings, leaving your hands free for other actions/transport. And the tape is also excellent for stabilizing bone fractures (so common in active shooter scenarios, where the high kinetic bullets make major bone fractures): some rigid material alongside the fractured limb, and duct tape to immobilize. (PS: I am a Medical Doctor, with decades of experience in pre-hospital medical care of very critical patients. So, please, put that duct tape back on the pack)
I always carry an over-abundance of duct tape for its multi use applications for medical reasons as well as gear repair and it is also a fantastic fire starter :)
Why not just carry a few chest seals
The duct tape also works better when there’s lots of blood medical tape doesn’t like to stick to anything
In Canada that kit needs to be 4 times bigger... no carry laws means an active shooter can take his sweet time. Awesome video as always, thanks!
Then why is the United States ranked above terror states in 3rd world nations for active shooter attacks with higher casualties and amount of attacks?
@@DjMakurimaru Look at the active shooter locations where the casualty rate was high... All have firearm restrictions. When a citizen stops an active shooter, they don't even count it as an active shooter event. Gun control is people control, and nothing more. Criminals don't obey the laws.
Cite your source.
@@PrepMedic I've attempted to cite my source... CZcams keeps deleting it... because google/youtube are a tool of the gov't. Guns aren't bad.. people are good or bad and there are more good people than bad people. My point is when you restrict firearms from law abiding citizens the criminals win... every time because they aren't bound by those rules. Fill a room with a million random armed people... even under stress, there will be no murders. Fill a room with a million people and ban guns, only the bad people will have guns. It's really that simple.
Sorry, directed at White Lama. I know that particular stat to be false.
I really enjoy your reviews of the medical kits.
Excellent video! Thank you for sharing your knowledge on these kits. I will certainly pass this video along to our local school police department who was inquiring about such kits.

As ever, another great video, many thanks UK
Wow, what a great video and the irony it was posted today. Just took the NAEMT Tactical Emergency Casualty Care class and was looking to get an IFAK
The workouts are paying off! Nice cameo of your quadz 💪🏽
Great video. I appreciate you breaking down those kits.
Great looking new kit.
I carry combat gauze, soft t , gloves , hyfin chest seals and a space blinket in mine.
Great review as always!
Awesome review!
An idea for a video: Building an active shoooter/MCI kit.
Thank you.
I've been entertaining this question a bunch lately from LE. Comes from patrol cops and SWAT operators alike. "The boss gave me an IFAK, but what should I get for an active shooter kit (or scene with multiple injured)?" Maybe you could make a video outlining a decent setup for a basic active shooter kit, something responding LE can grab in an active shooter incident? This video makes reference to active shooter kits, maybe put out a video as a reference?
@Lone_ Scout no doubt. I can tell the guys all day what they aight to have in a kit. Just thought it would be an interesting video. Differentiate ifaks then active shooter kits then ccp kits.
100% agree, would love to see that sort of video
And he did just yesterday!
Excellent review.
Good kit for emergency response for the officer who can get to those in need, especially like my self who worked in housing high rise building complexes and responded to medical emergencies..
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
Couldn't find a vid on this kit until now!
A made a kit somewhat like that with a skinny medic ifak, spare supplies i had laying and a double mag pouch from us grunt gear
I’d love to have this to carry in the car off duty. Having the mags and the ifak is a good sub for carrying a battle belt or carrier around….. cause I don’t. This would be compact enough that I woukd
Could you do a video showing us how you would use this kit and the things you would put into it!?
I just started watching you and your content is 👍 👌. Questions do you recommend one of these or something else for a maintenance person working in school?
Maybe keep a flat gauze pad inbetween chest seals so you got something clean to wipe with befor sticking? Or if you were handing them off to someone they would have somthing and doesn’t add much bulk.
I got tough to mark all my medical bag pulls with red. So in an emergency everybody in your Unit knows were you medical equipment is and if the enemy is that close so that they can se the red strap then you got A different sett of problems on your hands (in my opinion).
It's similar to the Condor kits.
I have to disagree on throwing out the duc tape, especially if someone had an exit wound, you have to put the chest vent for a sucking chest one over where the round entered and they using the packaging it came in to cover the excit wound and taping all the sides with duc tape. Last thing I'd want is to not have anything to make an air tight seal on the back.
I made a pretty decent kit for only about 120:
NAR intermediate bleed control kit (CAT T, ETD, 2 packs of compressed gauze, shears, blanket, sharpie, HyFin seals, Nitrite gloves) - $70
QuikClot - $20
Boo boo kit by Coleman - $10
LIIVANS Trauma pouch - $14
Burn cream - $3
This kit will act as a common FAK to a trauma FAK if need be. I really went cheap with the pouch that holds the gear but that is something that can be upgraded later. Hope this helps anyone trying to build a relatively cheap trauma kit.
Keep up
For that much it would have been nice if they put higher quality shears.
Next video... Daddy emergency quick response edc. Your opinion for those of us who will soon be there 😁
Hello, I just found your Channel a few days ago, but I love your content.
Could you please make a video about a First Aid Kit for hunters or other people, which have to wait for help for a few hours or even days, cause they are so wild into the wilderness.
Cause I was out last year, with some friends for camping and hunting and one guy got injured on the leg (nothing fancy, it was only bleeding pretty strong) but no one had a First Aid Kit (now everyone carries one), so we tried to stop the bleeding, with clothes and duct tape
Luckily a guy came along us, which owned the land nearby and helped us with his kit and brought us to his house.
Since then I know the importance of a first aid kit, but I don't know, what I should put into it, to be prepared for nearly everything.
So I would like to see a kit like this, which maybe also deals with problems, like heart attacks or something else ..
I would check out the outdoor adenture kit series from "Tactical Medical Solutions". It has some trauma supplies and other items more pertinent to things the average person may encounter while doing outside activities.
Ok, so serious question for you. I am a retired medic and currently an EMR , but I run the Canadian national program for Amateur Radio Emergency Services. My question is these drop legs do they come in a more diagnostic setup, with quick access to key medical intervention items. A common practice is to provide communication at public events. I also offer when I am on site locally the additional first response until EMS arrives. I want something quick and on me. I have a large conterra kit for extended care. I am debating on a drop kit. Yes we do wear vest for visibility but no need for armour. Any suggestions
TraumaPak has a new “micro kit”. Have you checked it out yet?
Please review the bearfak from refuge medical
As LE, I noticed the low hang issue from pictures I'd seen, so I'm glad you confirmed that for me... Do you see any potential for personally customizing it to sit higher?
The owner reached out and said they are coming out with a C2 that will sit higher. So hopefully that will come soon. In the meantime any drop leg molle panel will work.
@@PrepMedic great news! Thanks man
Sam can u do a video of you on ground ambulance next
personally i would not throw out the card incase i the person with the kit if the one that needs the help i keep it right there in the front easy to see for who ever might be working on me incase they dont have the training and i cant walk them thru it yes id rather have someone with training but in emergency
Is there any way to run this drop rig without the pistol/rifle mag pouches? I don't carry my weapons while working EMS. And I think it would reduce the bulk if it could run without the mag stuff.
I don't know how they can say cheap trauma scissors when they look much better than some of the older kits I have seen over the years. I would like to see what they consider expensive pair but all you have to do is resharpen them using a knife sharpener. They have a lot of new models now that seem to be hitting the market. I am sure a lot of you have bought cheap scissors at dollar stores before and kept them a really long time. Some of the videos I have been reviewing on prepping shows guys saying that Leatherman tools in some of these prepared kit are cheap just because there not name brand Leatherman's. It's not a big deal there just as great as the expensive ones.
Do you have a video about building an active shooter kit for a BLS ambulance? Our department would like to get a kit together since we cover 3 major schools
So much more handsome without the beard!
Drop leg holsters have never been good, and never will be good, because people’s legs taper in the wrong direction, so the leg straps never stay tight to the leg for more than 30 a few steps before they turn into a dangling, sloshing, mess.
The solution to that issue for holsters at least has already been made with the Safariland UBL mid/low, and the TRex leg strap, which is really only there to support the holster from pulling away from the leg as you draw.
There is never a time when a drop leg system will work well, and I can’t see myself ever wanting one, especially for a purpose like active shooter response. All that dangling would be silly.
Current solution for expanded med pouch for me is a cheap Condor EMT MOLLE pouch stuck on the side of a Rush 12 backpack, which is pretty much the same med pouch for only $15 or something. That pouch can also be stuffed into or woven onto a 5.11 Bailout bag.
Pez dispensers and stuff go in chest rig/placard.
Sometimes I think these companies don’t consult with medical pros before releasing new kits. Idk if they do or not but it seems like a no brainer to me….if you’re going to produce an active shooter kit that’s supposed to be capable of treating multiple patients you should have someone that’s been in that situation or is trained in that area to tell you what contents the kit should consist of. IFAKs are super easy to put together and it would take a real moron to screw that up but I feel like something like this takes a lot more thought and strategy.
Hey sam where are those pants from?
The only reason i haven't got these was because they would hang too low if anyone has a good way to ride it higher post it!
They are making a V2 taking this into account
@@PrepMedic no way! What! Cannot wait for that!
Could either be modified for use with safariland QLS platform?
I am not intimately familiar with what male connection items are available but I think it would work
Whats brand this pants ?
UF Pro
10:10 is that an Israeli bandage?
Cops ARE civilians, my man.
i love your videos but all of these kits are extremely expensive. a budget kit build/amazon kit build would be great for non professionals
What's your budget?
Most paks are going to run you $40+; (I opted for Vanquest 5x8)
Basic Budget Trauma Kit:
4x Nitrile gloves, latex powder free ~$10 for 1 box of 100.
1x CAT gen 7 TQ ~$30;
1x Shears $4;
1× NPA 28f w/lube is ~$6;
1x Quickclot ~$15;
1x Hyflin chest seal, twinpack (2) ~$17
1x 4" NAR/Olaes/Israeli Emergency Trauma Dressing (ETD) ~$8.00 / 1ct
1x Black/Red Sharpie ~$1.00
Depending on sales/promos/discounts everything listed above can be had for ~$130.00.
Add-ons:
Always best to have 1x extra gauze (~$4 - $8 depending on length);
2x Emergency Blanket (heat loss) ~$2 - $3 each; &
some form of 1x Gecko Grip Tape (~$14 per roll)
@@Ceyx000 that's a nice setup!
Ah but cheaper has worse gear
I am sorry but nearly $300 and I get .50 cent trauma shears? There are a couple places they cheap out that really annoys me for the price.
They should add a SWAT-T, flat and multi-use. Low-hanging leg rigs are the worst, hate them.
Swat-t is a bad tourniquet type; CAT is better
@@zfjames it's not a "bad" tourniquet, it's inferior to a windlass tourniquet but it works for the intended purpose.
The SWAT-T is a tool for all kinds of trauma, not just as a tourniquet. It can be used to put pressure on a wound, keep packing in, it can be used as a sling or to tie legs together, in addition to several other uses. It's affordable and compact. No one in their right mind would suggest replacing a windlass tourniquet with a SWAT-T but as a complement it's great.
@@swe_nurse8121 Completely accurate and fair assessment thank you
A thigh rig med kit? I don’t know any leo that would be interested 👎👎
Larpers may love it tho.
I mean, a chunk of our SWAT team uses setups similar to these and so do a majority of our special teams medics. Was issued one when I was in Iowa as well….
@@PrepMedic
More power to em. Everyone has a personal preference. The idea of more gear flopping around on my person has no appeal for me. But options are good. Some gear gets tried and chucked, some works and sticks. A no for me tho.
You shaved?
🍫
First !
how dare that isnt good for a F,,,,, BOO BOO
To much bulk and non-essential items for what they're designed for.
Please tell me what cop wears really any medical at all. Please show me😂😂
Every single cop In our city does and every deputy for
Where I came from in Iowa
So the hundreds of videos on police activity that show officers saying word for word “who has medical” or screaming “get a TQ”. You guys are the chosen ones that have it? Maybe it’s just LAPD and all my friends that say they barely were taught or even know how to use one.
@@PrepMedic I’d like to see a video of an officer pulling out a med kit or ankle kit with decompression needles, chest seals, Israeli bandages, 3 TQs which should be worn at least as police or military on their person, quick clot or some form of packing gauze. It just doesn’t happen for 99% of officers brother. They just aren’t trained that well unless prior military. 99% of cops say “I just want to go home and have a beer yet they only work 3 12s or 4 10s. They could be training but they are incredibly lazy for the majority and I love officers. It’s just the truth. Not to mention weapon knowledge and tactics. Some of the worst I’ve ever seen. If you aren’t doing hundreds of dry fire training every single day before the start of work or after. 99% you’re going to miss in a real life situation. That’s what it takes because in real life you’re going to be 30% of your 90% when training on top of a medical situation. You’re going to forget the training if any of you don’t practice medical at least a few times a week doing scenarios.
I was wondering the same thing. Are cops out here really getting medical training? Also who are these kits for - other cops or people that they shoot?
You shaved your beard
The barber fucked him up so he went clean💀

One big con I see is the BULK.
For the record anyone who doesn't know: you cannot use celox or quickclot on someone with a shellfish allergy as the agent those products use is derived from shellfish. Yay me.
That is a myth and is not actually true
@@PrepMedic literally says on the FAQ found on the website "It is made of a proprietary composition which contains chitosan. Chitosan is a natural polymer extracted from shrimp shells and highly purified. Celox’s composition is protected by 3 patents."
And it has been proven not to cause allergic reactions in people allergic to shellfish. It removes the components that cause anaphylaxis. Also, quickclot uses a clay material. Completely different mechanism of action
@@PrepMedic source? I would love to read more into that, and I couldn't remember which of those it was so I had said both, thanks for the correction.
@@PrepMedic is the source: trust me bro?
I responded a few active shooters , and responding an active shooter, casualties are not the main objective !!!
Neutralize the shooter is the main objective, so I will carry more ammunition than bulky medkit !!!! If I am down, I will still stay on the fight til I am completely out or the shooter is out !!!!
We ain't got no time to deal with casualties, that is your dept !!!!
Wow… yet another product review. Because products, not knowledge of body systems, identifications of symptoms and procedures, saves lives.
Move on from reviewing the free stuff you got and go back to educational videos like you used to do.
maybe you just are not notified of my videos but if you count the last 10 videos, 6 of them were educational in nature and had nothing to do with product reviews…..
