- Reviewing My 48 Hour EDC Get Home System. This system usually accompanies my Bugout bag and or get home bag and has been modified to adapt to the 2023 summer season. Thanks for watching!

Nice set up. For 48 hours I would add: 1. Water filter. 2. Thin rain poncho 3. Cheap set of sun glasses
Great ideas, thanks for the tips and thanks for watching!
One thing on comms. All radios, cell, even satellite phones can be down, turned off, scrambled and Cray computers are always listening. If yours works, always speak in code that you and yours can understand. And dont talk long as your location can be triangulated.
lol
Consider adding a four way will dock key. In an urban environment they would be indispensable to procure more water from outside commercial and industrial buildings. For five to ten dollars you basically have a key to the city.
Really clear picture and great sound! Good video
Glad to hear you’re all safe.
Thanks for sharing your iteration of a get home bag. It does seem like you've hamstringed yourself on water though... Especially for 48 hours...we all have opinions and mine would be with your set up to carry something like a Condor or similar water molle cozie with shoulder strap, so you'd at least have a Nalgene quart water bottle... and at minimum water purification tablets or a mini sawyer... But just my opinion of course...
Thanks for sharing n' God bless brother
Awesome video, just one thing: take the tourniquet out of the bag. If you need to use it on yourself, you don’t want to be fumbling with packaging/trying to open it with one hand and a mouth
smart, I roll with a chest rig aswell for that rapid deployment at a moments notice. People think it looks ridiculous but thats the difference between the assets and liabilities.
Facts
I don't understand the love for chest rigs. In high intensity situations or if you have to run far it keeps a lot of heat in chest/core area which makes it harder to cool off. Fine for Fall/winter but a nightmare in the summer or hot climates. It's also a bit of an obstruction if you have to get low or squeeze into a space.
Personally, I prefer a sling bag because they can be repositioned for chest or back carry. Most of the military style have a clip for quick detachment and you can get to items you need with just about the same speed. I'm never gonna need a power bar or a map where I can't spend a few seconds flipping a sling pack around. Even the ubiquitous fanny pack is better than a chest rig. Its dorky but easy to carry, on your hips where weight is easily distributed and certainly non threatening which can be a positive in most situations.
If I'm going anywhere fully armed, I'm going to have my FLC on me!! My sling pack has non-gun stuff...
Thanks Joe for this video, I have prepared an EDC like this to keep in the car. Here in Europe, bad times are expected.
Y’all are possibly in for some nasty crap in the near future. Situational awareness is your best bet. That and train with whatever you decide to keep with you, and always keep it with you.
Stay safe.
Keep them coming brother . 👍👍🇺🇸👏😎🌴
Cool kit, I like the idea of the emergency water an a electrolyte tab to super charge the water 👍🏼
At least you have a plan n are prepared
Great vid bro! I love the Wynex pouches, I have several in my bag.
Finally a solid planned get home bag!!! Thank you sir!! You nailed it! Everyone else has a bunch of crap that is totally useless in urban areas. You don't need a damn ferro rod or water purification system in the city! Perfect kit! Well done!!!!
thanks for sharing man, stay safe out there 💪
Thanks, you too!!
Considering you live in a dry climate, I would consider a small water filter. Living In Wyoming, the one package of water may not sustain me for 48 hrs. but you would need a canteen. Otherwise, I like what you carried.
All the tacticool stuff will just get you identified as someone who most likely has gear worth stealing. Civilian gear doesn't look cool, but it will help you look more average. Try out brands like nike, under armor, and puma for your clothes, hats/accesories, and backpack. I love tactical stuff; however, my get home situation would require me to walk through rough urban areas to get home.
Great video brother, but I hate to say it. You wouldn’t survive 1/2 day with what you have. Most of those things, you don’t need. May I suggest a camel bag, with 2-3 liters of water and the basics. Knife, headlamp, gun, ammo and the emergency blanket. 2-3 extra mags for the shield.
All great ideas. I would suggest an extra pair of clean socks and moleskin for blisters. Your feet will be doin most of the work. If their down…it’s the end of the walk home. Other great suggestions in these comments.
There are more than a few ways that show how to affix a water bottle/Nalgene type to that rig.
Launch that stock antenna. The retractable Nagoya is good.
I’d love to see 48 hours (late spring or summer) testing of this kit. Go hike how many ever miles with this and camp out for two days. Nothing like a good test
Well thought out system. I carry more water than you do. I like to have the capability to have one gallon of water. In summer under high exertion, I need one to 1.5 gallons of water a day. I have found that water can found in my area, S-E Georgia, readily. However, if I want to move quickly and without concern for immediate water resupply, I need a minimum of three quarts of water storage, a gallon gives me a margin of safety. In S-E Georgia, S-E South Carolina or N-E Florida? Looking for a group? Checkout South-East Georgia Freedom Forum.
I agree with what you did. My only criticism is to get a MRE in there.
Grabbed one of those bags I ended up putting the flashlight and electronics into a mini faraday bag to carry in it as well
I purchased two 15 round mags for my Shield Plus and the more extended real estate makes it a game changer. It almost feels like a full size pistol now. Maggots and Magshack have them. Just something i noticed that you might like, other than your 13 round mags. 👍
Nice
Good job. Everyday items. Not a bunch of expensive gimmicky stuff. 👍
Thank you!
I would use a blue chemlight and yellow highlighter with your map. Mark out your path home beforehand, the other colors won’t show the highlighted route but the blue one will. If they are good enough for Rambo , they are good enough for me :)
For your radio comms. Print and laminate frequency lists, FRS, GMRS, MURS frequency lists. Along with local fire and ems etc. Keep them with your radio...
Good advice! Thanks for watching!
Ever consider adding a sillcock key to access water?
Great video but i saw one thing u said that your light and radio and lighter are electric and my opinion is that is better to have those things on batteries because outdors u cant recharge things
Good video. I ordered the pack it’s better than my Danny pack as I like to cycle.
what is have that is different
Those caffeine gummies things go bad. I added a small energy boost liquid
I carry a flashlight with a ball cap clip so can work on the truck or walk at night if I have to do so. A 10:18 leatherman wave on my belt and the watch pocket of my jeans has eye drops for dust or whatever
I have spare glasses instead of just readers that are impact proof
A big handkerchief
Nice basic minimal kit.
thank you, and thanks for watching!
Carry pretty much all the same, but in a small non tactical looking north face pack. Look more like a day hiker or student. No moral patches or anything that denotes me as prior military or affiliated with any 3% er or paramilitary organization. I want to blend in with the masses as much as possible.
Basic bug out bag
Not bad setup. I'd swap out the pen for grease pencil for writing on maps,Windows, and drywall sometimes sharpies don't always work
I have that same pack and really like it. Seems well made and like the organization. Stay safe and NEVER APOLOGIZE FOR BEING A PATRIOT 🇺🇲 🇺🇸
Thank you for watching, 100% agree!
One thing that’s an absolute must in my EDC is an InCharge 6 n 1 charging cable, a must and also a hank of cordage
Great tip! Thanks for watching!
Nice down and dirty set up. Personally I’d substitute a headlamp for your flashlight so you can go hands free.
Thank you, yes, a headlamp is always a good choice! Thanks for watching!
Good system. Maybe add extra batteries for light and radio.
the pouch itself is nice and the items are usable, but for 48 hrs you will have a problem without more water or at least an option to transport more water. just a normal sunny day and you have to walk a few mile will bring you on the edge of dehydration. that´s a point you have to rethink
Can you make a video elaborating on your radio plan for communicating with your family
Quick question regarding the three Chen sticks. When you say the different colors represent different threats; is that for people that knows you and your family and are they aware of what each color means?
What is your weapon of choice for your bug out?
To me that seems more like a get home kit than an edc.
My edc is much smaller and lighter and not so doom and gloom.
Edc shoukd have cash! Most every problem you will face that may stop you getting home can be solved with cash.
Hydrapak collapsible water bottle and purification tabs, will leep you going if you can find a water source
Put $100 in 20’s in the bag, and one or two Mainstay 1200 bars. That would give you 2400 calories of lightweight durable food.
Cool pouch. What is the name?
Interesting…..
Don't forget the torque wrench.😅
Why are your pistol magazines facing different directions?
You’re missing a cheap poncho. Getting soaked sucks, a 1 dollar Walmart poncho is small and easy to store.
I like where you are going with this, but, I have to be "that guy" and say that you should drop the Chinese knock off and get a USA made original Hill People Gear Kit Bag.
Take the TQ out of the packaging
If you need 48 hours to get home then you have bigger issues than making sure you have a tourniquet, personal protection and radio. These are getting really ridiculous.
In what sense ? You need to think about the situation you’re in. Civil unrest, absolute chaos, no vehicle, and what’s the distance between your location and home? All things to be considered.
You've got pretty decent gear, some like the knife is even top notch, but your holster is hot garbage, especially the BS plastic clips that WTP puts on their holsters. That seriously needs an upgade.
Thanks for watching… got any recommendations?
@@idahoprepper actually yes.
My recommended holsters include PHLster, Dark Star Gear, JM Custom Kydex, and Tennicor. All are solid gear, built by people who are actual practitioners. Too many holster companies are run by people who don't actually train, or even carry.
If you do nothing else, at least get rid of the garbage plastic clip and install a DCC Monoblock clip to replace it.
So sleep under a tree in the rain ok
