- missing from this bag is the tarp, wooden, poncho and hammock... So yeah, it's incomete - I'll have to dial it in and maybe lighten it up a bit
- Jak na to + styl
I’m a prepped, and long haul hiker. And a Certified Professional Trainer, carrying all that gear you better be working out four time a weekend. Along with cardio five times a week.
You'd be shocked at how quick you can get into shape to hauls all that crap if you're in just OK shape to start out with - The Marine Corps taught me that well over 30 years ago - Truth is this was just a "peace of mine" kind of project, reality is you don't "need" all this stuff
The hacky sack is a underrated piece of that pack. Something to keep the mind and body occupied is extremely important. Anyone who’s been stuck on a COP definitely understands
Enjoyed this one .
Great video, thanks for showing your loadout. Good to see new videos on the Alice pack. Actually not bad for weight, being an INCH bag. I have large and medium Alice packs. I've been trying to dial in my medium Alice for years now, trying to see if I could make it into an all season pack. I like the medium better since it doesn't hang a mile off your bag behind you like the large does.Thank you for your service and for the video. Take care. 👍
Smart 👍 nice load out interesting and useful well done 👍
Nice video. One thing you may want to do is make a master list of everything you have and number your bags/containers so you know what's in them and when they were put in. I would check the ammunition to see if it's still good and the magazines. I'm not sure if keeping them loaded that long is good for the springs, big fan of 1911's 👍. To ensure the flashlights work, keep the batteries either out of them or have them turned upside down so the flashlight won't be accidentally turned on. Seems the INCH Bag has held up well over the years. For food, Mountain House would be very good or homemade Pemmican which the Pioneers used. I would include some Hunza bread too before bugging out. Good video again 👍
i keep a note pad right on top and i hv listed everything in my pack and what pocket it's in,, very handy
@@tomcatt998 Very good idea 👍
Great kit. Thank you for your service also. I was in the us army national guard and I can tell you that the gear nowadays is not what it seemed a decade ago. The ruck sack they gave us would fall apart after few months of usage. You also have to pay for everything.
Excellent Franken-Ruck! Nice add-ons, your load-out seems to be exactly what you want for your goals, good on you. Maybe add a pair of old shoes/boots?
Your dad sounds like mine, 22mag, he stop using bigger calibers. I still use a lbe and a alice system with frame plus the alice shelf for the bottom .
Nice looking workshop...Any video tour of your tool organization? Ever considered using a bicycle as part of an INCH system?
Yes, I build bikes and originally got back into it for that purpose...
So funny, I have harmonicas and hacky sacks in both my Bushcraft/Camping kit (Med. ALICE) AND in my truck pack (get home bag/hiking). So true about “misplaced” gear, just YESTERDAY I remembered I had a couple of those ‘Permanent Matches’ (yours was yellow) and have no idea where they are! 😅
I have considered an INCH bag for awhile and have the ILBE + Assault pack (I was USMC ‘04-‘14) which would work great but we moved to a rural island and would probably hunker down. Semper Fi 💪
thank u bro catching up on acronyms inchbag
Interesting stuff!
I made a BOB with cheap gear in a 70L hiking pack a while ago and now I'm looking at all my brand new great quality gear I use once in a while and the brand new large Alice pack hanging next to the main door and finally figured it's time to upgrade my BOB like never before. Best case, it will serve to keep all my good gear together so I don't have to ask "where did I put that?"
THINKER THUNKER T SHIRT
THE BIG FOOT MAN.
I’ve got so many pack and bags I find stuff I’ve looked for months, some stuff I forgot I had
Instead of just a bedroll strapped to the bottom of the pack and frame, you could maybe attach the enhanced buttpack with poncho+liner inside and sleeping pad on the lower straps for the summer, or the waterproof NBC-bag or even the MOLLE sleeping system carrier for all seasons! Wow U got the Kendo scissors too? Take good care of it - made by BACHO of Sweden ;D
What about pistol belt with ammo pouches canteen and a knife?
Not a bad kit, maybe a bit too much redundancy but I have been guilty of that as well. Maybe delete some of that and add some premade snares and a dedicated fishing kit? I don't know you're AO so not sure if those are viable suggestions.
Thanks, There's a USMC USGI fishing kit in there, it's in the survival shirt I made along with snare wire - I grew up doing all that stuff with my dad who was a child soldier during the Greek civil war - Everything he taught me is exactly how it's done in the SAS Survival manual - This was something I threw together at a moment in time when I needed to do it for peace of mind - I seriously doubt I'll ever need it but at least it's there - I have SO much, SO much redundancy even with other kits on top of my kitted out 4x4 Astro van I'm in pretty good shape :)
Old maxim from the S.A.S: you can never have too many matches or hexi blocks. Also, about half of this ends up in your pockets. And, it's better to have it than to need it. Have a GOODN.
@@nomadmarauder-dw9re people often forget pockets! I have often seen people wearing a British or British style smock and have asked, "why are your pockets empty?"
I am not British but I know the value of pockets!
Still waiting for the video on the survival shirt ahah
There's at least two of them - Look in my playlists
Good video stumbled on it try to figure out if the medium Alice would make a good assault pack
Looks about right for a 2day pack for recon
If you keep it to under 35lbs you don't "need" the frame
I like the dint in the knife handle, bowdrill puck am I right?
yes
Heyyy. ThinkerThunker shirt
Oh rossie makes a youth gun. Get that and the right set of barrel and you need no other gun. Id go with a collapsing bow and arrows but again that is preference.
should upgrade the 1911 internals of shooting 45 super if you haven't already
Done
i go over mine every year & replace the food,, but i notice every year it gets heavier & i haven't added anything to it,,,
i must B gettn old
(66)
Regarding the sustainment pouches. I know they work with LC2 with no mods, but did you add 1" bars? Or replace the LC2 webbing bars?
there's wider webbing on the sides of the ALICE pack that the straps on the pouches run through then snap back to the pouches - I didn't modify anything
@@AstroVanTribe yeah, I was messing around and discovered that.
6:45 can you do a video on how you did the fastex buckle mod?,yours is diferent than mine
Maybe some day, it was pretty simple but I did this years ago and am focused on other things these days...
Great pack, but at 60 pounds+ how far can you hump it?
If you're in shape you should be able to haul a third of your body weight. Having said that, this was just an exercise, I don't really need all that crap....
Hey can someone explain the difference between the nalgene canteens and what makes them better?
Google is your friend
@@AstroVanTribe Google doesn't tell me what makes them better over the original military canteens pal so I was hoping someone with personal experience could answer. Clearly, it will not be you.
@@JohnDoe-cd6ro The materials, the weight, wider opening, lighter - The Nalgene doesn't take on the sent of things other than water like the military ones PLUS, you can see through them which is huge
@@AstroVanTribe Thank you. I appreciate it.
That’s a Frankenstein pack ROFL 🤣
i have the smaller version of the schrade survival knife
If you’re trying to evade capture, skip chowing those sardines down. They’ll smell your mouth a mile away 😂
The Schrade knife is a copy of a Chris Reeve knife. It's a decent knife but isn't a true one piece knife like the Reeve.
I've been hep to the Chris Reeve knife for decades - I didn't look too far into the manufacturing of this knife and the truth is it just lives in that pack so I also haven't used it for anything in quite some time. I do remember watching videos on it and it holds up pretty well to abuse
Going through youtube videos on these Schrade hollow handle knives and they're saying they are made from one piece of steal
@@AstroVanTribe They're not. I removed the finish and etched with bluing to reveal the seam and pin. This was back around 2005 ish when they came out. We beat the shit out of it with no problems. I had a knife shop and was a Reeve dealer and carried their full line including Sebenza models. I'm very familiar brother.
I know this is a year old. I see only one down fall to your inch bag. As a soldier you know what you are supposed to carry. You are missing one pair of boots. You need the ones on your feet and a pair in your pack. In my opinion i would add a grail water purification system or what we used in the military. And i prefer the stainless steel jug as well. But that is preference. Boots and socks . That is the only down fall to your bag. Well its a bit heavy but your bulky. So yea boots where out. Walk three states and you need boots. Good kit otherwise.
Good thinking... Id have a pair of boots and a good pair of hiking shoes
Way too much, way too heavy, way too big. We have learned a lot in ten years, well, some of us have
