Military survival LBV Load Bearing Vest Aka. ITLBV TLBV LBE 24, 48 or 72 hour bug out bag setup

[@usmchs2993]

I was active duty Marines from 1972-76 and used the Vietnam era alice setup with the Y harness. after a few tries at other setups I fell back to this old Alice setup over LBVE, molle etc.. This system never failed and is as versatile as the newer systems. Plus I can wear my ALICE Med back pack over it. Great video just different eras.

[@0122358]

your right about the GPS sattilites. thats why i learned first and foremost how navigate by map and compass, heck thats all i use.

[@opalprestonshirley1700]

I have an LBV system just like yours, my butt packs a bit different but thats ok. The setup gives me a clearer picture on how to load out mine. Thanks

[@nextexhale]

Nice set up, man. I recently got one of these LBV's and like it. Glad I came across your vid to give me some ideas on how to set it up.

[@Wimberson2]

Very Nice Set up man!!

[@stormpoet76]

a spade can dig you a shelter in the middle of a field with no trees. Until you need a shovel,or saw/axe which most military spades have lightweight it is non essnetial you are correct. I personally like my spade for the simple fact it can be used as a rudementary grapple...an effective non threatening weapon, an all purpose tool hammer,axe/shovel/pryba/hoer/ firepit digger etc etc. but hey each to there own weight limits. to me it is absolutely essential for survival.

Aluminum is the third most abundant element in the earth's crust (after oxygen and silicon). It is in air, water and soil, and ultimately in the plants and animals we eat. There is Stainless Steel for those interested. I myself am sticking with Aluminum.

[@t48fff]

I wear the enhanced LBE on hunting and fishing trips, minus the handgun and I do have the butt pack. The vest is very comfortable compared to a backpack and it can carry everything you may need. The key is buying quality items for the vest and try everything out, you can buy the .99 cent whistle and .99 cent compass but items like that are good to give away at a kids party not trust your life with. The tourniquet is dangerous unless you know what your doing get in a free first aid class from the red cross or fire dept and ask about everything your not clear on. I added one of the folding shovels that Walmart has in the camping section, it mounts up on my belt in a small black pouch.

[@AppalachianFreedom]

Very nice setup Sir!

[@848kasper]

Nice setup. Im gonna do that with my vest soon. Im also adding a SOF shovle. And 4 mags.

[@bushjared89]

This vest rocks!! I just got mine on ebay for $15

[@d.l.hemmingway3834]

I like your kit.

[@stormpoet76]

one piece of equipment that is ultra heavy but absolutely essential is the spade. one of the most valuable pieces of equipment you should carry. it would fit perfectly where your butt pouch goes. You should also have firestarting equipment which is lacking. I didnt see one of those little poncho packs either

[@OneWildSurvival]

John Koning, M.D., from Riverside General Hospital in Corona, Calif., responded, "most ingested aluminum is recovered in the feces, and much more is ingested by a person taking antacids than one could ever leach from an aluminum pan." A buffered aspirin tab may contain about 10-20 mg of aluminum.1 antacid tablet can contain 50 mg of aluminum or more.Worst-case, a person using uncoated aluminum pans for all cooking and food storage every day would take in an estimated 3.5 mg of aluminum daily.

[@amackey313]

i suggest checkin for a carpenters belt liner, it rides on the inside an has thick padding an large velcro to secure it.

[@ericfredericks6502]

If you are a right handed shooter you might want to move the compass and first aid pouch to a different location. You might also want to throw out that model flashlight and get something different. It is also a good idea to use some zip ties along with the alice clips.

[@0122358]

@OneWildSurvival not to mention, ive tired ACUs in the woods. the only place they camo you is in a rock quarry. in the woods they make you stick out. My firend had to jump in a mud pit and roll around to hid during our E&E exercise.

[@thomasnugent7602]

Very good, Thank you very much

[@OneWildSurvival]

@marc7898 I don't mind the LBE but there just isn't enough places to stash things so it was time to move up the chest. I prefer to keep as much on me as possible so if I have to ditch the ruck I can make it with what I normally have on me.

[@OneWildSurvival]

Used as directed it'll remove almost all the floating debris depending on your filter material and adds chlorine. Tastes like water if you don't like the chlorine then let it sit in the sun for awhile.

[@OneWildSurvival]

@60odeeman Those are in the buttpack and will be shown in another video. The canteen cup is not a cooking tool. Cook in the mess kit to be shown l8tr. I've have to read the studies on that new one on me. Aluminum is often used in cooking utensils, containers, appliances, and building materials. It is also used in paints and fireworks; to produce glass, rubber, and ceramics; and in consumer products such as antacids, astringents, buffered aspirin, food additives, and antiperspirants.

[@TheBgcheez]

Just a suggestion - get rid of one of your canteens and put a small water filter there. IF you've ever ran with 2 full canteens you'll know what I mean. Also think last means of survival with your LBV. You won't need 2 compasses etc. to much weight. In the Marines our smoking lamp was 99% of the time out. Which means no LIGHT, no hot food etc. just something to think about.

[@stormpoet76]

Id keep a hardplastic foldup map of your area and its surrounding in your gps pouch, GPS is good but good maps are better when SHTF

[@OneWildSurvival]

@mrSugarglider the vest is called a LBV ( Load bearing Vest) search online for military surplus or head to your local surplus store.

[@tlt61]

I was thinking the same, what he has is nice and all, but the lbv should be carrying about 180 rounds of ammo (6 30-rnd magazines).

[@OneWildSurvival]

You'll enjoy it.

[@OneWildSurvival]

@tHeWasTeDYouTh I think your talking about the molle vest. I don't have those so search "molle II FLC".

[@OneWildSurvival]

@counterxstrikex , you'll have to remove the current sewing and have and resew the pockets and cover.

[@SgtBooker44]

great video and set up. I havent' heard of Chlor-Floc before, I'll be looking into it. How does it effect the taste of water?

[@USAFXBMW]

Invest in an AMES entrenching tool.. VERY useful tool to have on your belt..

[@OneWildSurvival]

True it is a brick but shoots great. Love to have a Springfield XD but $900.00 in a LBV setup is already more then I wanted to pay. If we make it another year I'll switch it and put it back in my truck provided my kids don't hit me up for more money.

[@THENEWWRANGLER]

I took my similar rig out on a hike in the mountains. 8km. It was not very comfortable under a small backpack. And my rig has far less stuff on it.

[@OneWildSurvival]

@Calbrazil2007 yep sure did I hate to have too much extra stuff hanging off me.

[@OneWildSurvival]

@RECOIL64 I'm fairly busy myself I hope to get a video out soon myself so maybe I'll look around during fall when I have time.

[@OneWildSurvival]

@cole91v check out the butt pack video. it's attached to the pistol belt but removed for this video

[@N4ANE]

You need some way of making a fire like a lighter or some thing like that and where did you get the mil water things at?

[@semperfi-1918]

Crap I just realized this video is almost 10 years old. That setup is a good start but I'm sure by now he's worked out the bugs on how he wants to run the gear.

[@OneWildSurvival]

@M1919A Well plan out what you think you'll need for however long you think you might be out there. Then get the gear that'll carry it all.

[@OneWildSurvival]

A spade is not essential. Shelter, Water, Food are essential. Fire starting is located in the butt pack which is in another video.

[@Antunez99]

@OneWildSurvival Look would you recomend me this over the Y suspenders i use the Y suspenders, they are great but they need to be very tight and the back needs to be very close to your neck. cheers

[@OneWildSurvival]

@N4ANE Lighter and 3 other ways to make fire of course. Never keep all your eggs in one basket.... Internet I believe the link is posted in the comments below what to look for.

[@blootoons]

i donnt see why people get so hung up over the use of clip vs mag. as long as you communicate what you mean to the audiance then its all good. its like when you ask someone to hand you the thinggymagig next to them as your pointing on it. not the right name for the thing but they understand you all the same

[@OneWildSurvival]

When I get a nice day I'll make another video on it. I need to get caught up so give me a little bit. Quick instructions: All beads are up. Pull down one of the bottom 9 beads for each 100 meters you travel. When you reach 1,000 meters, pull all 9 of the bottom beads back up to the starting position and pull down one of the top 2-4 pace-count beads. When all are back on the bottom your at 5,000 meters or 3.1 miles if you use 4 beads on the top.

[@OneWildSurvival]

My load works for me. Everyone needs to assess what they need for where they are and the situation they will be dealing with. I just provide some ideas.

[@exohead1]

Why did you put things on your strong shoulder? Don't you want that clear for your weapon?

[@redriverscout4404]

I am putting together a very similar setup with an old Canadian Army LBV I got for 25 dollars.

[@OneWildSurvival]

If I was still in the service I'd catch all heck for saying gun instead of weapon. I also prefer to say speedloader since everyone knows without confusion what that means unlike clip. As long as you and the folks your with know what your talking about I wouldn't stress over it.

[@geetarbube]

what's with the compass next to your watch?...your watch IS a compass!

[@cbr6864]

i have the hipoint 45 i just keep it in my truck. dont know how you carry that thing?

[@rainmechanic]

@OneWildSurvival ... I dont believe plastic frame rucksack frames are all that new and untested... The Molle II riflemans pack has been fielded for over 20 years now... Also your comment seemed strange to me since the handgun in your video is made from Plastic....ie polymer... Glass Reinforced Plastic frames on backpacks scare you but plastic frames on pistols dont? Anyhoo, I think the Vest idea is the way to go for a survival / bug out kit... It allows high mobility and ease of carry

[@ozziestunt5250]

OneWildSurvival, I dig your setup man, would like to copy it almost exactly. Have been looking on eBay for the vest but can't seem to find exact one. What is the name exactly? Cheers mate.

[@CircleWilliams]

Just type LBV on ebay. It's an LBV-88/ITLBV. I ended up removing the mag pouches, and made it an upgraded/retrofitted ALICE suspender.

[@AirsoftReviewArgentina]

BlueHyena Have you tried the South Afrcan Assault Vest or M83 vest? It can pack more gear than a CIRAS vest and weights half as much. Great video anyway! Greetings from Argentina

[@OneWildSurvival]

@SuperDwang not sure of the G36 mags what's the sizes? Length width depth

[@OneWildSurvival]

BTW. let the canteen cup full of water sit in the sun not the tablets as that will render the tablets in effective.

[@OneWildSurvival]

Chlor-Floc. There are expiration dates so something to keep an eye on.

[@OneWildSurvival]

My watch is digital NOT ANALOG. You really don't need a compass anyways, just 2 sticks in the ground but that's for a video later on when I get into land navigation.

[@maineiacacres]

So how do you shoot a rifle or carry a ruck comfortably with all that stuff up top?

[@OneWildSurvival]

I'll increase the audio in future videos.

[@0122358]

btw, ive kinda always been confused on how to use ranger beads, how do you use them? if you dont mind.

[@Calebscott360]

Which is better for bugging out, A.L.I.C.E. pack or LBV?

[@OneWildSurvival]

I really wanted something different but no way could I put down $350.00 for anything. Ya know the HP weight is about the same as the Army issue Springfield 45. I'm a disabled veteran with kids and divorced so I barely get by right now.

[@OneWildSurvival]

@zatebolt5, Military surplus stores

[@Calebscott360]

Is there a way to connect an LBV bag to my Alice pack?

[@OneWildSurvival]

@t42beal13t , Yes I'm aware of that but most like clip.

[@OneWildSurvival]

@M1919A what are you trying to do?

[@azazelRising72]

Some people actually hate cats, so : clip, clip, clip, clip, clip, clip, clip, clip, clip, clip, clip, clip ...

[@enfeildnagant1972]

ok this guy has more features on his setup than nixon had excuses,simplify that setup.on your vest you need ammo period,any additional gear goes in your pack

[@superassassin47]

wat site can u buy it from the lbv im talkng about

[@MRFLIP]

high point 45 in pouch

[@gjcoins]

very interesting , i was thinking more for survival items like food , not for guns and shit...

[@superassassin47]

thx

[@PrideV6]

How much Magazines can you hold

[@metrophreaknokia]

what is that gun holster called?

[@MRthekid0ne]

Amen!!!

[@OneWildSurvival]

A gun is really a firearm or weapon like many things words take on different meanings. Technically they still are clips as defined by the dictionary. " a metal frame or container holding cartridges; can be inserted into an automatic gun"

[@treytonbrown9740]

We're did u get the knife

[@MarineChaps]

OORAH!

[@OneWildSurvival]

@metrophreaknokia, UTG Adjustable Leg Holster for Pistol/Flashlight, Army Digital

[@tHeWasTeDYouTh]

can someone put the new LBV, the one for the ACU

[@B_Well32]

Magazine not clip.

[@OneWildSurvival]

U.S. Army Angle Head Flashlight MX-991 / U

[@OneWildSurvival]

That's with everything shown in the video. Not the best but good enough to do the job. This really isn't something that can be done cheaply. If your short on cash, just buy what items you can, too get you by. Then work towards more things as time progresses. I may dump the gps since it will probably be worthless to use. Sun wipes out everything electronic it's dead weight. If government goes nuts, I'm sure they'll scramble the signal again since it is a military satellite.

[@001tonbushcrafting]

tourniquet buy and keep it close in place of a field dressing and more ammo you don't even have a full combat loaded if you are rocking a ak why not a ak bayonet to save weight thy not use the cleaning kit in the stock of ur ak

[@OneWildSurvival]

@t42beal13t , I'm not going to go around screaming about silly stuff. If I did I would be all over the place screaming a gun isn't a gun it's a weapon.

[@0122358]

@OneWildSurvival 900 in your LBV? wow...well you want the best, you need to buy the best, most of the time...

[@OneWildSurvival]

local military surplus stores, E-bay, Internet

[@buggymak]

nice setup. but i don't see you walking around the town with martial law with road blocks and so on !!!! you are going to be spot or worse been shoot at.You have options,make your setup simple and not screaming i'm armed,no military green or camouflage gears to blend in the crowd.a lot of preppers make's that mistake just my opinion.

[@OneWildSurvival]

@tHeWasTeDYouTh I don't think I would be going ACU for a while. ACU is new and doesn't have the years of true life testing. Example the plastic ruck frame might last 1 day in the field before it's a broken mess. (Whoever thought plastic was a good idea to use should be shot.)

[@MostWantedOHA]

why is it you say ''clips '' slip of the tongue perhaps ....'''

[@t42beal13t]

They're magazines, not "clips"

[@t42beal13t]

@OneWildSurvival Shouldn't you be one to correct people since you know the difference, instead of fueling their misinformation?

[@reddevilparatrooper]

Man i remember this!!This system is a complete fucking abortion!!My shit was completely new and never used it unless we had a barracks inspection.In the field i still used my beat up Panama Invasion ALICE LBE set with 4 mag pouches,butt pack,and 2 canteen set up.It felt like wearing a wool coat wrapped around you just trying it on standing in formation.Some of my guys passed out during a change of command ceremony wearing this shit.I often wondered who was the "Ass Clown" who designed this shit for Infantry?

[@miketaylor5212]

special forces lol

[@reddevilparatrooper]

Mike Taylor LOL!!

[@reddevilparatrooper]

***** The MOLLE system is very versatile in my opinion because you can custom tailor it to what you want on your gear and even out your load to what you want and it and balance it when you go to the field or prior to combat.

[@reddevilparatrooper]

***** The problem with the LBV system from when other infantry units got them they were a fixed system.Each part had a certain place where they had to be.The LBE can be attached in a few different ways like add on M16 pouches and other items that have the metallic LBE clips.The problem was not solved after around the late 90s when the Ranger Battalions started getting the RACK chest rig which was held down with a standard LBE pistol belt.This was the first system which the MOLLE system was first used in.Regular infantry units or certain units who were smart enough to grab them from the Army supply system got them in time for the initial Iraq Invasion during 2003.By then they stopped production of the RACK so they are quite rare.By late 2005 the Army went with the FLICK vest in in woodland pattern which is rare too.By 2006 when the rest of the Army was wearing the ACU pattern then the FLICK in ACU became general issue which i got in the summer of 2006 before deploying to Iraq.

[@miketaylor5212]

you should see the guys passing out wearing molle even the material is heavier molle is made for mechanized warfare and mout the lbv is for straight leg in the boonies mine was great in the heat once i sweated enough to where it got wet

[@dirtyscoundrel2013]

Clip? Lol thats a magazine. Clips are used to load magazines

[@stormpoet76]

I wouldnt use aluminium either. being poisoned slowly by your drinking tin= very bad long term survival. stainless steel the only way to go even if it is slightly heavier.

[@itallafuckingjoke]

A pistol that accepts stripper clips? Damn, what pistol is that?

[@kylekocin8672]

Ummmmm.....not one of those things you have is a clip...those are alllll magazines...I'm sure you know that,its just annoying af...

[@OneWildSurvival]

Ebay

[@ax275]

Firearm...

[@TMX130]

why is god on youtube watching survival videos?
