What have you bought lately? (Bug Out Version)

[teotwaki]

I got this crazy idea to try out a chest rig made by Hill People Gear: original Kit Bag V2

Being marked down 27% probably helped the decision.
It should arrive by Saturday but am not sure




500d construction
quick access concealed pistol compartment
comfortable mesh backed H-harness allows you to wear the Kit Bag by itself or underneath of a pack
elastic keepers for the H-harness straps
Velcro loop and dummy cord loop in pistol compartment allow for various retention options
tabs with grimlocs at the top for hanging on another pack, or for use with Lifter Straps (included) for docking to a host pack
tabs on the bottom for attaching to another pack, or for use with the Stabilizer Kit (optional) for running with
Front zippered access flat pocket with two interior slot pockets with dummy cord loops above them
large 1" deep main compartment with dual interior slot pockets with dummy cord loops above them

Bought Clif bars to rotate out the ones from my BOB. Not very exciting.

Just bought a few cases of bottled water to rotate the supply and a 7 pound bag of red lentils from Costco for $11 to help provide variety for all the vacuum sealed rice that's in storage.

Purchased a Ruger LCP II 380 for a bigger bang than my little .22 revolver CCW.

Last weekend, on the way to a lawnmower repair shop, I happened to notice a large number of people and cars/trucks set up as kind of a mini flea market in a commuter parking lot. I stopped to look around. Sometimes it is just junk but as the saying goes: One man's junk is another man's treasure. From one vendor selling mostly clothes/fabric I purchased a cotton beach towel that I can cut into strips and use for cleaning weapons but will probably give as a gag gift for Xmas. $2

Sitting by a rear wheel of their vehicle was a small, unopened bucket that I wanted as well so I haggled with them and got the price down to $8.
1800 bullets and a beach towel for $10. Not a bad day.

I just bought a used NAA Gaurdian 380 for $230 plus $20 transfer... A lot heavier than the Kel-Tec or Ruger LCP, but stainless steel and has a nice feel to it... Nice backup or deep carry piece ... or "just cuz' !"

Bug out...or just get out.
Picked up a Eureka 4 man ecws tent, military surplus. Set up today and found a second tent body in the bag - score.
Everything is in good shape, even the repair kit was full....for fifty bucks I think I did OK.
It should be good for my family of 5, 2 little 1 middle and 2 bigs-

Picked up a Mystery Ranch 3 Day Assault Pack and just plain out love the thing. And the wifey got me some Quickfire All Purpose Fire Starters and they're awesome! www.quickfire.world In the market for a Mystery Ranch ASAP, Medium/Large Yoke in Coyote Brown and can't find it anywhere. Anyone have a lead? Or one used they want to let go?

Just ordered a surplus Molle II medium rucksack (I have the 3 day assault pack which I use as an overnight bag - AWESOME...) but I wanted something a little bigger - I got the grade 2 version -used for $69.99 - based on the reviews of others who had bought them. https://www.midwayusa.com/product/10189 ... e-assembly

They're having a promo for free shipping on orders $99 or more so you could get the grade 1 with free shipping, or go grade 2 and add something worth 30 bucks to give yourself the sense of getting something free...

Three Backoacker's Pantry 2 serving entrees - they were on clearance for 2.50 per at WalMart.

I bought a Maxpedition Entity 23 - would NOT recommend it.
They tried to go "gray man" but by hiding the segmented storage - internalizing it, really, they cut down available space.

[tony d tiger]

Also bought some trekking poles and new Merrill Moab Ventilator shoes - very happy with these.

A Mora Bushcraft Black knife.
