Solo Overnight with a Canteen Cup Survival Kit!

[@larry6056]

Love making survival kits matches peanut butter jar rope small knives good for days

[@Eidolon1andOnly]

Awesome video. I would love to see you field test any kit you build or buy for a 72 hour period, since most search and rescue operations consider the first 72 hours after a disaster or missing/lost hiker report the "golden hours" of when to find someone alive, and will be when search and rescue efforts are the most motivated and prolific. Would also be a good way of demonstrating all that can be done within 72 hours.

wow, your ask is really well thought out and applicable on many levels. Yep, agreed. Count my vote in too please.

[@Toffeenose1983]

Vote 6 i guess. Plus its been over 72 hours and we havent heard back so lets just assume hes out there testing this now..

[@americanpatriot6918]

Man you have some really nice black soil in that area!! Looks like the upper Midwest if I'm not mistaken.🤔 Great video! Lots of useful skills!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅

[@larryhillman3813]

Cool video as usual. You and Corporal Kelly make survival videos that are both informative and useful.

[@ifyoudontfailyouarenoteven6210]

And both post their videos around the same time on Sunday. Outstanding AF.

[@neoaliphant]

To be honest I think Andrews video presentation skills are much higher than corporal Kellys, and content more engaging.

[@ifyoudontfailyouarenoteven6210]

@@neoaliphant I see both as complementary, Andrew's more military/guerilla stuff, and Kelly's as a civilian, longer-term survival/camping approach.

Great rifle! I've been following you for a good while, and you are one of the few who not only talks the talk, but you walk the walk! Keep 'em coming!

[@Eric-ew8jt]

These are always the best ones! Thanks Andrew enjoy your Sunday Gunday, god bless you and your family

[@bobbieschke599]

The Fox 45 referee whistle is pealess and louder than most! Our US canteen cup will fit inside the Crusader, gives you an extra pot .

[@bc4yt]

Nice. I would add a couple of larger, high quality zip lock bags to act as water bladders - saves trips to the crick and also lets you take water with you on the go.

[@mountaineer5596]

Your videos are the high point of my Sunday mornings. Your valuable, no-nonsense education are greatly appreciated. Thanks.

[@cindyjean3208]

“Hope you really like this video “… Absolutely love your videos… You are so “in your element “ that it makes me wish I was there…🥹 I need to go back through your videos… in a survival setting, There are times when you don’t want to leave your vehicle? Maybe show some survival techniques specifically using your truck or SUV ? ( that’s probably a dumb request with all the survival information you’ve supplied, huh? ) See you next Sunday… Be safe…🙏🏻😇

[@memathews]

That's a great request! Working SAR we don't want people leaving their vehicle, it's generally the largest sign that someone is in a location. Every year there are lost or stranded families on car trips in Nevada, Idaho, Oregon, California, etc., an understanding of what to have in a car and hope to use it would be helpful to some folks.

[@TurnipGreen]

That's actually a great request. With winter coming? It's actually way more believable that someone would actually need that video

[@fredfreiberger7878]

Thanks for all you share I appreciate it. I would add some type of small soup pack to my survival meal it can be used in conjunction with game animals or by itself

[@willk605]

Thank you sir! Another great video ,and kit! Keep them coming!

[@kevinwiens4804]

The solo overnighter PROVES you're not just "playing Cub scout" you're out there doing it for real! Thanks Andrew. I learn something new every time you do a video..

[@saritaford3667]

Great video, as usual, sir. You break down the information so that it makes so much sense. Keep 'em coming!!!

[@johnmbrown6627]

Another excellent video. For reference, the Henry AR-7 can hold a magazine in the receiver brining it to 3 enclosed magazine. The Armalite and Charter Arms versions kept you to 2 mags. Just a heads up

[@psubs2001]

My Charter Arms AR-7 from the 1980's only holds one magazine in the butt stock. A magazine in the receiver prevents the receiver from sliding all the way inside the butt stock. You have to remove the magazine from the receiver and slide it into the butt stock magazine cavity. I truly appreciate the improvements that Henry has made to the AR-7.

[@johnmbrown6627]

Henry sells the insert for the stock.

[@robertchavez5900]

Another excellent video! Two days ago it was 115 degrees here in California and at noon I tried out starting a fire with dead pine needles and a concave mirror I got from Dollar General. It absolutely worked fantastic! I learned it from your video I saw last month! Thanks for a valuable technique I’ve now learned! 👍

Been wanting one of those little rifles for a while. I like the over-sized cup as well. Glad you named the headlamp. Excellent video as always. Have a great evening.

[@OutpourOutdoors]

Dude I loved this video so much man. Really blessed me!! I see vids all the time on small kits like this but almost never so I see it demonstrated with an overnighter!! Really putting your money where you mouth is so to speak haha 😂 bless you man! Thanks for all the info on the channel.

[@tenchraven]

Good to see you doing full videos again. Challenge- you can put anything you want in a match case, and can wrap it with cord. That, a space blanket, cravat and a Swiss Army Knife of not more than three layers.

[@ajherring92]

I like this canteen cup survival kit idea. I have a smallish haversack that I store the 5 C's for my wife's car and a Ranger roll as well. After watching this I'm gonna add a few other items to make it a little more substantial. I keep going back and forth between wanting to get the Henry or TPS arms M6 survival rifle, I like the dual caliber capability of the TPS or the semi automatic option with the Henry. You're definitely one of my favorite survival channels on here, you and Corporals Corner who turned me on to your channel. Keep it up and I'll keep watching.

[@mikebsbd]

Thank you for another great video. Maybe you can add the plastic liquid bag from an mre or one of those collapsible tear resistant bags that you've used before.

[@rodneymiddleton1044]

Good one Andrew with the canteen cup keeping it very light.

[@douglasmckee4982]

For the average person or person's that was one of the best instructional videos on Rescue Survival I have seen. Awesome work Major Andrew..

[@henchman_ben3725]

Loved this. Also, that Henry is fantastic, for an emergency tool.

[@PEDAgent]

No nonsense training; always spot on Ranger! Keep it up.

[@brianwojtas6396]

Great video Brings back memories of 1983 hunter safety class. Having to build a survival kit out of a bandaid tin. Wish I still had it. Bandaid box was container Tiny mirror Stike anywhere matches dipped in candle wax Water purification tablets Needle and thread And so on Couldn’t believe it all fit but what a awesome kit we had to build for hunter safety and I caried it for a few years until being a dumb 11-12 year old lost it somwere.

[@aodhanoceallaigh8533]

Cool little setup. always neat to see alternate setups for mini kits

[@davesauter8374]

I can now save space in my MK2 rig for hunting! Great compact kit with everything. I have always loved the AR-7. efficient and effective in the right hands. Thanks again, Ranger!

Great video, I really enjoyed it. JT

[@gordontyree4308]

I also have the Henry AR-7 in black. I tricked it out with a sling and butt pouch. I place extra mags in the pouch along with a small survival kit. Works out great! Love that rifle! Really fun to shoot too!

[@flymanhorse]

Realy love the idea of a cup kit. Makes sence for an emergency situation

[@stephenspencer355]

Thanks Major for taking the time to do another outstanding instructional video, especially on this day.

[@paulh9727]

Enjoying the videos, thank you. A small hack you may be interested in; I bought several swaths of 100% cotton material, 2 black 1 orange at 4x4'. I hemmed all the way around then created linear pockets on opposing sides and double stitched. These trough sleeves add some function to these fabrics as well as maintaining the already 10 thousand uses. They can be slid on to poles for a litter, suspended in a frame for a chair, used for multi-stage filtration, signaling, clothing, medical, multi satchels, hammock..... A second hack was to take two large swaths of differing camo colors (desert, woods) and stitched them into a large bag config, 42x42" finished size. This has many uses of course but the reversible camo is pretty slick, has come in very handy for warmth and concealment while hunting, stowage, blind, shade, gathering, bed/bedding, bear bag, coat, pants, can be stuffed with insulation between the 2 fabrics.

[@memathews]

Those matches are as big as a 5-minute road flare! And that chain saw is impressive in how quickly it cuts. Thanks for the video on a weekend we are kept out of our nearby forest fire to wildfires in the PNW.

Well done sir thanks.

[@asmith7876]

I LOVE those Crusader mugs, I’d love to have one. You can find them for sale but I recall they were too pricey for me…or maybe I’m just cheap! But I do love my steel canteen cup, I’ve joked for years I could use it as an entrenching tool…and there you did! 😆

Great vid! Cool canteen kit. Never thought of putting items into a canteen cup to make a ( very effective ) survival kit. Cool survival rifle. My Uncle had one of those. Also didn’t know they make the blankets with green on one side and orange on the other. Never have seen that before.

[@psubs2001]

I typically carry one whole Ramen package, some jerky and dried soup vegetables for a survival meal. Doesn't weigh much and you can crush down the noodles in the packaging to save a bit of space. Since the Jerky already has salt I wasn't using the flavor packet due to hypertension. I'll now use the packet as an extra hot drink.

[@Adventuresonabudget67]

Great video. Love that you mention that commando saws are great if you know how to use them. Too many people jump on the hate nadwagon without ever trying one. The chainsaw commando saw is awesome - used one this summer and loved it.

TY for another helpful video. I love the outdoors, & I enjoy learning new ways to survive etc. Love the compact 22. Been saving for an AR 15 kit at PSA ( Palmetto State Armory) , under ,$500 for complete AR.. just have to learn how to build it. But dang it,, I love that 22. Perfect size, quiet for small game or ? I might have to start saving for that as well. And a kit exactly like yours with the cup etc... Have a Safe Day brother.. Big Jim New Hampshire USA aka BOSTON STRONG

[@wjf213]

Good video. Something you might want to consider doing that was taught to me, is plugging your ears with your fingers before blowing that whistle. If it's loud enough to be heard a long way off, then it's probably a little too loud for your ears that are just six inches away. You don't need your ears ringing when trying to hear a reply to your emergency whistle. It made sense to me, but what do I know. Keep up the great work.

[@usernamemykel]

Quite coincidentally that you enjoy Mt. Hagen coffee, as I do (and it's the ONLY coffee my lady will drink), and I save the ramen noodle (monosodium glutamate-heavy) flavorings for survival only. I like the "Rich Chocolate" Swiss Miss, which is harder to find, and have that also in kits. The ramen noodles, by themselves, I enjoy with a splash of soy sauce, regularly, at home.

[@KT_survival]

Great video, as always. You're true survival 🏆 Beside that, your personality makes all of this so enjoyable. You rock Andrew! Rangers lead the way!

[@richardkibler3870]

That's a Great bit of kit,Of course it's up to us to find what work's best for us,in that configuration.Boullion cubes or ramen base are small & cheap but full of too much salt.I would substitute with a Jello pack, as they are the go to's by SAR crews.Thank You Andrew for keeping us in the "Know",Cheers!!

Now I know what to do with my Jello packs. Thanks, mate. When I get over my possible Covid-19 heart inflammation and right foot soreness I want to carry 12 stone in my ruck over Breton Becon, eh?

Salt is good, you need electrolytes. Better than a drink mix as it can be used in cooking too

[@danielcotts8673]

"... and I think the cats are winning right now." Well, it's a full time job for them. Problem is they catch and eat the small rabbits which means the rabbit population does not reproduce. Add in a few coyotes to cull the large rabbits and it's back to fishing. BTW The plastic signal mirror looked scratched. Maybe time to drop the $$ for a glass one (which requires extra protection). Great and useful video as always. Many thanks.
