To avoid going OT and polluting the EDC thread, a new Go Bag specific thread has been created.
Speaking generally, a Go Bag is a bag containing pieces of kit which are helpful or potentially necessary for some to have, in the event that do not have access to their regular places of residence, work, etc. in the event of an incident or disaster of some sort. They are most often intended to be grabbed quickly in the event a rapid exit is required.
As has been demonstrated in the last few years, the potential causes which can temporarily force someone out of their home wor workplace are myriad. These range from natural disasters like a tropical cyclone/typhoon/hurricane, tornado, blizzard, earthquake, wildfire, sinkhole and more, to manmade events or causes, like a bomb threat, hostage situation/LEO standoff, structure fire or damage, or a HazMat incident.
In many of the above cases, people can still safely remain inside their work or home. For times when people cannot, and have to leave rapidly, a Go Bag can be invaluable.
Now, as I offered before, I will list an inventory of my Go Bag(s). My Go Bag(s) itself/themselves are actually two different bags. They are a 5.11 RUSH72 pack and 5.11 RUSH MOAB10 bag respectively, which can be strapped together using the 5.11 RUSH Tier system.
Contents of the MOAB10 will go up first. The RUSH72 contents might be a few days.
-Cheers
EDIT: I have included links to some of the more specific and 'high-end' pieces of kit which I have and like/prefer to use so that people can see what items looks like. I have no stake in either company, so there is not advantage or disadvantage to me in what people might select, I just happen to personally like using 5.11 and AMK products, but others might have different preferences. People should use whatever works for them.
