I dig you. I subd...thanks man!

[@HOLLYHOUSE11]

youre so right...train for what you live in...and the bottom line is that most of us are urban ish at least.....I wish there was a damn code word we all had...lol...I say that kidding...but it would actually be cool if all of us had a damn code where we could run into someone and know that this is a person with compatible skill sets/ ideas etc that would be good to team with. Anyway, I agree with you and appreciate your work. Cheers

I love seeing how ill prepared and oblivious my competition is.

[@tomcatt998]

Most people i know don't even rate as ill prepared..

[@karl28560]

My suburban prep kit is to get me directly home on foot as fast as possible and regroup. Not playing Darryl, Carl, or Rick.

[@garypease7414]

you just need a bag, like an of gym bag, to carry things you find. Generally a shopping bag might do, but you could roll up an old gym bag and tie it on the side of your pack, then use it if your "shopping" gains are more than a Walmart sack will hold

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Good idea..I got more than a few old gym bags

[@Greatlakesprepper]

a few ideas/tips: get under the car and poke a hole in the tank..if needed use a foam ear plug for a stopper if you'll be back a pair of large side cutters work better on chainlink,can be use to cut wire,rubber hose,etc and would be lighter then the bolt cutters a spiked tomahawk can be inserted into padlock hasps and twisted quickly to break. a small 'packable' backpack could be quickly deployed to care any extra loot you may find a 2-3' section of house with the female end intact can be coupled with the silcock key to allow a quick shower and/or easier filling of larger containers a can of bright colored spraypaint to mark areas you've "visited"(you may know your city now but post disaster it could look a whole lot different)

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Good points I've changed this gear ALOT in the years since I filmed this. I do like the idea of marking territory.

[@BigFootWalker]

Knee pads would be something that I'd add. Then you might want something (camo tarp or sniper's veil) for camouflage to avoid others finding you should they wander near you.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

+BigFootWalker1776 Both great ideas, I figure in a good ole wrol situation, I'll be out scouting in camouflage or at least something like you imply that I could use to hide in if people got close. Thanks for watching!

[@MooKau_]

Would just small scrim / local foliage to cover full bags you'll hide for the walk back too. .... or incase you need to dump large bags to leave an area too.

[@chrism6904]

Thats a good idea!

[@WTF-vv8ic]

J. Mario lol

[@saetmusic]

Two Excellent ideas!

[@RobbTZombie]

Leatherman or any other plier based Multitool, that may be more an EDC thing but it's amazing how handy they really are.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

+SkollTheMoon Absolutely, I'm kinda of shocked I left that out. Such a great multi use item. Then again, I can only fit so much in that pack :D

[@WastelandSeven]

Another thing came to me. I don't remember the exact name, but, it is put out by Stanley (and several other companies) and takes reciprocating saw blades. A collection of hacksaw and wood blades could come in really handy in an urban environment. And gives you a tool you can make use of the tons of saw blades left lying around in a collapse. I saw one at my local Ace hardware store.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Cool, I'll keep an eye for it next time at the store.

[@WastelandSeven]

The Survival Outpost There's two different models, one is just a handle you screw the blade down in a chuck to make something like a rigid jab saw, only with removable blades. The other kind (which I saw in the store) was in the form of a folding saw. Either one would do.

[@cbrooks97]

Good thoughts. I don't think eye protection is a "might be nice." Post-SHTF, with no health care around, eye damage is the last thing you want. Protect those eyes. And I think a real mask might be a better choice for your vulture kit. On the road you want things that can multitask, but this short range pack can be more specific, and a real mask will work better than a rag over your face.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

No doubt, you could even up your game with a helmet depending on the structure you might be in. Who knows, but like you say, no healthcare means you need take extra care. Thanks for watching.

[@marcgg1227]

there are dust masks up to medical issue ones wich protect against "big" viruses and stuff...they cost less then a shemag :P helmet and heavy duty tools, are imo not needed, it slows you down in the long run to carry too much, if the building is about to break down you shouldnt go in no matter the szene, you wouldnt right now i hope.

[@marcgg1227]

i wonder about your water collection, you can not drink from a creek that ever touched human civilization, may it be a village or farmer fields...human manipulated areas put in things into the water you cant filter with a regular trekking / mobile filter, but you dont have that either? great vid but that i dont understand :)

[@tetrarhetoric7647]

Marc Gg Does anyone know of any portable filters that could handle those types of pollutants?

[@kan-zee]

11:20 the Shemagh can be used as a Mask. I agree, there are better masks , for protection.

[@RonDicken1971]

I'm pretty sure that if you get stopped carrying a pry bar, bolt cutters, and lock picks that you'll be detained at best, if not arrested.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

The only use this bag has is in a post shtf environment with no rule of law...at which time I'm not so concerned about cops

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

I appreciate the input. Trust me that I don't plan on just absently wandering up to building and letting myself in. There is stages to the process, the first being observation from a concealed position. Then depending on the size of building and my observations I might pass it up completely but mark it for future return with a team. Lots of variables to take into account. Although not shown in the video, I have a semi auto high cap rifle and handgun. Check out this video for more details: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4Xdl6ukmpmZfqc

[@alphabears6342]

In our age where you get protest everytime a black person commits a crime, the cops do not have time for burglary. Look no further than Portland, a shitplacce where hippies and idiots protest and riot anytime they feel.

[@alphabears6342]

@Knight of Saint Michael agreed

[@benveach9689]

👍🏽Absolutely right Ron and would you break into some one else’s property to begin with? Play stupid games~Win stupid prizes like a bullet in the back~A just kill. I know you can’t go much over 4 days w/o water but can’t see breaking into a structure unless it’s sub zero~

[@jimmydigital]

great vid. you've earned yourself another subscriber. also agree with your parting comments. a lot of preppers just seem to be camping enthusiasts or knife or firearm enthusiasts. they're forgetting many of the vital skills needed.

[@Grayman58]

Don't forget guys those large strong garbage bags can be used for sleeping in an emergency and also wading across small rivers or ponds keeping your feet dry no need in getting the feet wet if it's not necessary.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Great advice, trash can liners are good choice

[@WastelandSeven]

Another thing you might use tubing for is distilling water. If you had an enclosed metal container you could boil the water and the water vapor would collect in another clean container. One problem with urban (and some rural) water is that it can be contaminated with chemicals and heavy metals. Especially if you gather it from near an abandoned factory. In that vein another thing you might consider adding is a cheap plastic cammo tarp, casualty blanket, or the kind of space blanket that's heavier and has gromets. A poncho might work, but, I'm thinking your ponchos should stay with you for emergency shelter. You can tie it out in an area during a rain storm and get fresh water that doesn't need purifying. I would say get some surgical masks (the real deal, not dust masks) because black mold is nothing to sneeze at (no pun intended). I have a friend who had a friend die because the black mold got into his lungs during a bathroom renovation. Another thing I'm assuming you have (since I've seen some of your other videos, but, mentioned in passing) is a multitool. But, I'd add that I suggest a multitool that has a screwdriver bit socket with it. The reason I say this is that you can add some security bits to your tool kit in case the lock-picks can't get through a rusted padlock and you don't want to make noise with the prybar. Might come in handy. In this vein, a little lubricant of some kind might also help get into some places. I have a cheap oil pen from the Dollar Tree and it works just fine, weighs nothing, and takes up no more space than a Sharpie. Just a few thoughts.

[@johnjames218]

your right, we need to look at the urban situation in a lot more detail

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

I wish it was different, but that's the reality, thanks for watching!

[@JohnDoe-vj6gq]

First of all great video. Alot of things to consider. Instead of a syphon for gas just puncture a hole in the bottom of the gas tank. No need for that big syphon taking space. This can be used for any car fluids. fluids drop into abowl or whatever container you have. You can drain 4 cars at the same time while you rummage through some other things and quickly pick up your fluids when you're done.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Great input, I've added a sharp metal punch tool for that specific purpose. The gas tapper kit is great, but takes up serious room

[@trailerfitter2]

A little tip if you are going to syphon fuel. Take two pipes and a handkerchief. Syphoning with your mouth is the worst way of getting fuel for obvious reasons. (your health). Put two pipes down the tank neck and stop the excess area up with something then blow to pressurise the tank. IT will push fuel out of your pipe...This works on the small tank or full tanks.

[@shithappenedwhatnow3028]

First aid in case of need to wash eye (free, light medicine cup as eyebath), disinfectant and bandaids/ bandage of some sort. Infection of minor wounds in shtf can kill you. Sewing needle to repair damaged clothes on the go, sew wounds, remove splinters etc. Long hair can replace thread in a pinch. Tooth floss is strong as thread and has many uses as well. Stocking. Seriously undervalued by preppers. Can act as bag, net, prefilter for muddy water, extra layer of warmth, etc. If you have a small wd40 that's a good add. Reduces noise from rusty hinges, helps loosen rusted on bolts etc. A multitool with -pliers -good quality tweezers- screwdrivers etc. Does your torch have a red light option to reduce your visual at night? Great kit, thanks for sharing :)

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Thanks, glad you liked it. In this build, I was primarily focused on tools and related equipment. I would absolutely supplement the pack with first aid kit and whatever else I needed at that time.

[@shithappenedwhatnow3028]

Have you got an emergency sewing repair kit? They are small, and useful. Easy to put together. A few scraps of old denim, old tshirt (useful as its jersey knit which means it doesn't fray and has stretch.), a few buttons (assorted sizes) salvaged from shirts/pants you are throwing out due to wear, a few GOOD QUALITY needles threaded through the material scraps or stored in a needle case to protect them and ensure you don't loose them. These can usually be found cheaply from yard sales of older folk who are keen and experienced, but may have arthritis or failing eyesight. Find the right one and you maybe able to trade some yard work etc for darning/repair sewing lessons. In shtf, having well maintained gear is essential.

[@rossg4788]

Loved the name for your kit. Solid ideas that everyone can adapt/adopt to their own situation. Thanks!

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

[@averagejoe6966]

In relation to the smaller bolt cutters, I see you have an alternative now however, if you did need to use it and wanted more leverage you might try this. Tie some strong cordage around the handles in a loop and start a square knot. Put the axe handle in and do the second part of the knot. Now twist. Like on old jail break movie when they bend the bars. Same method can be used to pry off locks if you have another fixed anchor point!

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Awesome, I gotta try that, makes perfect sense.

[@ctrain8900]

Schrade survival hatchet (strong, reliable, durable, and has fire rod in handle. Very lightweight yet powerful) Multitool? Hello? And one big thing you're missing, battery pouches. They don't take up much space, and are compact and save you a lot of time and money. Life straw, that's a no brainer Survival knife, it'll save you in these conditions one of those days. Matches, I know you have a lighter but might as well. Don't take up much space and weight. If you're super hardcore, and want unlimited electricity, get one of those solar panels that can attach to your pack. Very good video, this man is smart and prepared. The suggestions should be followed through, because they are compact, lightweight, and reliable.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Battery pouches are a good idea as well as filter straw. This pack demo is more focused on the tools specific to forced entry, siphoning gasoline, etc. Schrade makes good quality tools, have a few of their knives.

[@ctrain8900]

this is a few months late, but i was looking for a good tool for this specific forced entry type of thing, and i came across the "timahawk" (yes, with an "i"). Look it up, not sure if you've heard of it or if you can still buy it these days but it looks like it was made for this purpose. And the axe, not the smaller one.

[@Tailspin80]

Sir, please step out of the car. We’re getting reports of a burglary in the area...

[@christophereddy5284]

You think in a SHTF scenario when you need to scavenge to survive the cops are patrolling for burglaries? This isn't a get home, bug out, or everyday carry bag that you would always have with you. This is a specific purpose, after SHTF scavenging bag.

[@Tailspin80]

Some good ideas. I use a reciprocating saw blade handle and several different multi purpose blades. Diamond, pruning, metal, wood and their cheap.

[@christopherellis2663]

very good! the large number of homeless do urban survival successfully or not, depending on how discreet they are. Part of my travel kit is for sleeping out. I suggest a red or blue light for maintaining night vision in dark places. Shelter, water, toilets and showers, and feral food sources, including fishing, are easy to find, if one looks. Safety goggles are a must

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Yes staying discreet is vital. There are indeed more resources for survival in the urban environment than in the wilderness, just gotta get on the ground and find them!

[@nightwalker5278]

Awesome upload. Lots of ideas, well thought out and above all realistic and practical. I have a great deal of the kit you listed, now I need to consolidate. Thanks for sharing. ATB

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Glad you liked it. One point to note, the fuel collection kit has been replaced. Its great for use at home in a controlled environment, but in the field it proved to be a mess and overly complicated.

[@justalurkr]

I don't see eye protection as optional if there's a need for a dust mask in a demolition context. could be a bias from having had eye surgery, but... Otherwise, that seems to be an admirably comprehensive kit! Question: doesn't the type of fuel we can siphon expire in three to six months? How could you tell the fuel from the boat was still good?

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Agreed, eye prop is not optional...I had to learn the hard after this video lol. Great point about the fuel, I would think at a bare min, one could use old fuel to a bit of a boost for starting a fire if it could not be used in an engine. That being said, you can add a fuel stabilizer to "good" gasoline to make it last longer

[@justalurkr]

The Survival Outpost oh, man I hate to hear about people learning eye things the hard way! hope it wasn't permanent damage. will now be researching stabilization

[@justalurkr]

The Survival Outpost and I just discovered that the eye protection industry has the more mature prepper (like me) covered with bifocal eyewear. not sure whether to be delighted or depressed!

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Lol I got mixed emotions on that :D

[@ericlinder317]

You'll want to have two mult-itools on your kit! :) One to hold the nut and the other to turn the bolt! :)

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

That's a great point!

[@ericlinder317]

Thanks! :) Most of the people out there prepping try and pack EVERYTHING, but that is really impossible realistically. I pack for 3 primary things. 1.) Potential, 2.) Redundancy, & 3.) Multi-function. I think that if you can't carry it on your body in load bearing gear without encumbering yourself, then you don't really need it. For me, backpacks are potential scavenge/forage collection space, not for essentials so if necessary they can be dis-guarded in an emergency . But that is me! :) When I scavenge or forage, I cache a.s.a.p. That way I am never caught out and have re-supply when necessary. I really like what you are putting out there! :) Smart! :)

[@panzermacher]

I'm kinda living this right now, only I don't carry a kit, just an empty daypack for foraging wild edibles, just walking the roads in my neighborhood I have found, coins, socket bits, Drill bits, screwdrivers, a D shackle, Bic Lighters & what I consider the most valuable item, over a pound of Lead Wheel weights I use for casting Round Fishing Sinkers/Shotgun shot & Bullets.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

It's amazing what you find just by exploring right? Like you, found some good stuff just laying around.

[@panzermacher]

The Survival Outpost years ago I found a Remote Control for a garage roller door on a steep corner, it had obviously been sitting on the owner's dash & the passenger window was open & it slid right out when they turned the corner..

[@panzermacher]

The Survival Outpost bugger, I forgot, I have also recently found a a spent 12G hull, an unused one with a miss-fired primer & a .243 shell, I home reload both calibers, so that was another bonus, I live on the edge of town where hunters frequently pass through, those shells have probably just rolled off of the tray back of their trucks.

[@panzermacher]

Teresa Gideon yes?

[@ismschism5176]

Two things caught my eye: the pry-bar & the hatchet. Might be able to find something else laying around the area that can be used to pry with, without lugging that weight everywhere; same goes for the hammering-power of the hatchet. How about a glass-cutter, or part of a glass-cutter? edit: ... And nobody ever says T.P.; gotta clean that crap off the fan; amiright?

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Lol yes, probably will need a roll of paper towels, when it hits, it's going to be bad :) Since I shot this video, I've invested in a combo axe/pry bar with a hammer head. The glass cutter is a good idea, thanks for watching!

[@WastelandSeven]

Good idea on the glass cutter. Would make ingress much easier in some cases. While I agree that you may be able to find something to pry with, my experience is that Murphy will make sure that when you really need to improvise something there won't be anything to improvise with. I'd rather carry a prybar than waste energy having to hunt all over the place for something to substitute for it. And, if you are going to do much salvage, you're probably going to use it quite a bit. So it wouldn't just be for breaching. Still, I'd carry a smaller hatchet and lighter duty prybar. Though in an urban environment you could probably get by with a claw hammer (straighter claw like a roofing hammer) and a folding saw.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

I like this combo tool design, not sure on the quality of this one though: amzn.to/297G4nh

[@WastelandSeven]

The Survival Outpost I can't say to that particular brand. But, I got one when they came out and had wooden slab handles and they tended to bend at the handle junction. (I think the one I got was only carbon steel from the handle up, and they welded some mild steel on for a handle) I'd try a few abuse tests before I'd trust it far. (based on my personal experience that is, like I said, this brand may be better)

[@marmadukegrimwig]

Excellent video. Great, no-nonsense advice. It’s good to see more urban advice!

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Glad it was helpful!

[@mattbrown5511]

A respirator with extra filters is a must, preferably a chemical set of filters as well. The last thing you want to deal with is black mold or fungal infections in your lungs. A proper means of self-defense is also on call for your bag.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

I've since added a 3M respirator with chemical filters, picked up the entire set on Amazon for dirt cheap IIRC it was about $50 total

[@saturninc3786]

excellent video - never heard of ayone who made a kit/bag especially for foraging, to enable and find ways to collect what you need. Truely very very smart and helpful. I have all the items you mentioned, now all I need to do is make an extra bag for it. btw there are mini plyers as well, found some in a hardwarestore some time agoi and bought several for all my packs. excellent video!!! thank you very much!!! ps some ducttape won't be bad either...

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Duct tape is for sure a good idea. I added some small needle nose pliers, better than the usual pliers on a multi tool

[@mikedifeo8344]

Great kit. It will give you a lot of help in an urban setting. The urban setting is different than the bush and the tools are different. You have what it takes to get anything else you might need.

[@jerdog333]

That's a really good kit you built! I live in Los Angeles, and you are 100% correct that Urban Survival skills are so important and under represented in the prepping community. There are 1,000's of wilderness survival / bushcraft videos, but good urban survival videos are harder to find. Great job and I can't wait to see more videos like this.

[@paulmccummiskey5892]

I would use the DEAD ON multi pry bar hammer tool . I would also bring pepper spray for that occasional dog that might be holing up in or being left to guard property that youmight not have seen going in. I would also bring a multi tester to test any electronic parts or maybe some batteries to test any flashlights radios I might find. I would also bring a flashlight. In case you are suddenlt surrounded by other marauders and have to hunker down and hide until dark and slip out at night and find your way back with your map in the dark. And bring some hot dogs or bologna for any multiple dog packs that might be guarding a high value property that you needto get into. You throw the bologna about 50 yards away and make a dash for the target and hopefullyget there before they can get back. And keep another slice of bologna on you to repeat when leaving the target house or property. I would also bring a slide bar and screwdriver or a FORCE OVER tool to start any vehicles you might encounter along the way. Why walk back to your camp location if there was a vehicle you might have been able to drive and drive back with all your stuff and more. I use to repossess vehicles in Los Angeles. I would also Bring a couple of locks with me in case I find or need to stash some of the stuff I found at a nice location and needed to make sure other LESS PREPARED VULTURES want to wander on the property. NOW I LOCKED IT UP SO I CAN COME BACK. I would also have a few signs from HOME DEPOT or LOWES that say NO TRESPASSING OWNER HAS A SHOTGUN. If I did have a property that wasnice for the pickings I would post it where everyone could see it. That way the less motivated VULTURES would move on and I can come back to the property. If these were helpful to you shoot me back an email

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

+paul mccummiskey Tons of great information, spoken like a guy who has experience. Agreed 100% about the dogs, they are a factor to consider, had more than a few close encounters when I've been out and about. A good treat turns any dog into a cute little baby. Good point about putting up the signs to deter others. You gave me some excellent points to consider for a new video. Thanks and appreciate the support!

[@cactusdufresne7241]

Urban survival brings about several challenges that are going to be tough to get through, now then let's talk about knives a regular bush craft knife isn't gonna be as practical as say a Ka-Bar BK 2 which is perfect for shoving into door frames and window frames and being able to work quickly and quietly when an axe and a pry bar are gonna get you noticed. Also Ontario knives makes small pry bars as well which will seriously compliment your knife. Something else to think for an urban environment is your actual pack a surplus military ruck will get a lot of looks in a shtf I would suggest using a good civilian backpack to keep a more grey man persona. I think it is fantastic that you're thinking this way. I would seriously think about adding a shovel (a fold up military one) to hide in your kit as well as some heavy duty duct tape also,

[@joeyjones9041]

My INCH bag is the USMC ILBE main rucksack and i freakin love it. I have rucked 70 lbs of gear comfortably. I do plan on getting the assault pack and the Source 3 litre hydration carrier to go with it. I'd really like to have the Recon version of the ILBE system. Great tool kit. Lowe's has a smaller one handed hacksaw and a smaller packable prybar. Both would be good for breaching urban structures. I know how to pick locks and on a police gear website i found lock pick sets and slim jims. To get gas outta vehicles you can puncture the tank. Or use a hacksaw or small tubing cutter to cut the fuel lines.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Same here, loved my ILBE and FILBE packs. I gotta work on my lock picking skills they suck...wondering if a bump key would be a good option?

[@joeyjones9041]

@@TheSurvivalOutpost Bump Keys are an awesome alternative to lockpicking. I worked with a certified locksmith in a factory and he taught me how to do it. Patience is the key to success lol. Doing it with paperclips and bobbypins can be done, but it's absurdly hard. In SHTF honestly bump key might be faster, it would suck being out in the open, maybe look into a glass cutter, like Mission Impossible shit lol.

[@RogueReplicant]

Any "kit" or BOB should be assembled with 1 priority in mind: WATER. Finding it, collecting it and FILTERING it. Add some water filters and a couple of high capacity USB power banks with dual charging mode (AC & solar cell). Otherwise, your Vulture Kit is awesome!

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Thanks for the input, water is definitely a top priority. The power banks are also a good idea, but I don't see how they fit into resource collection. Thanks for watching!

[@rfross771]

@ The Survival Outpost another reason to use a lock pick set aside from being discreet is that you preserve a resource. Meaning if someone is following you in a Temps to do you harm now you still have a door WITH A LOCK to place between you and a potential hazard. Resource preservation is one of those things that very few people think of in a deuce hitting the air circulation device situation

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Great point, preserving the lock can also give the impression that the property has not been disturbed. In the end it depends on your goals for that site. Are you simply getting in and then getting out with what you find? Then maybe its not a big deal to knock off the lock. But if this is a location you want to use for a few days or longer then keeping that lock functional makes good sense.

[@tygerarnett1804]

I think you are right on point with having this type of kit I do have some suggestions for you in pretty much of the modules that you have.... 1. Intel- You might want to think about adding some type of small radio so you can hear if there is any weather things you need to know about, places to avoid. Perhaps a 2 way radio to communicate with another person, maybe even a short wave radio, an possibly a police scanner.. Some of these can be bought as combined units I highly suggest you look into them. Especially with the intentions of this kit. You do not want to be going into a HOT zone. What i mean is you dont want to be leading yourself into like a riot zone, or something like that. 2. Cordage... I think it would be a good idea to add some type of cordage that is better at supporting weight an also some cordage that doesnt have such elasticity to it. Such as bankline perhaps a #36. Just make sure you get real bankline not the walmart crap. An I would also include in this section several carabiners that i would trust my weight to an several that i could use as a make shift pully system. 3. Water System... In addition to the clear tube especially when getting water from already filtered source if it is not compromised I would suggest adding a marine grade hose. If you are getting water that is some how not filtered that i would use the clear hose so you know the difference. I would also suggest getting like a sawyer mini an putting a carbon filter in the mix it will help a lot... for filling up that msr water pouch. Also just a type when prepping your water storage containers use hydrogen peroxide an water in a 1 to 4 ratio this is what hospitals use. They do not use bleach. 4. Breaching Tools- I just recently learned about this oddly on youtube an have tested it myself it does work. You might want to add some heavy duty wrench 5. Personal Safety- 1. I think you should have some type of firearm on you... you have zero mention of this. 2. You should definitely have eye protection, an a filtered mask a couple of them those N-95 masks arent that expensive. I would also think perhaps some foam ear plugs might be good if you are doing tons of banging on something in a factory type place, also perhaps some knee pads. Lastly, I was just thinking you might want to put together a small tool roll of like a universal socket set. They have ones that in cover a lot of sizes in just a few pieces good set. I would also put in a a screw driver set that has the same set up. I just think these few more tools might be helpful in the event your needing something to help with electricity, cars, security. Where you might be taking batteries, alternators, electric panels. This just also popped in my mind perhaps some discuss on this items usefulness might be warranted an what i thought of is those collapsible luggage or grocery carts that you see a lot of older people using? it might come in handy to have that in your pack. An than as your getting stuff take it to one central place where that is at putting it in that. So you can get it back to your location easily. What do you think? Hope you enjoyed my ideas. I have a similar kit myself. Glad to see someone else is on the same wave length as myself.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

I appreciate you taking the time to write up all these details. Agree 100% about the 2 way radio, got any suggestions taking into account price, quality and range? Already upgraded the cordage with two mountaineering carabiners, great minds think alike :D Good point about the Sawyer Mini, I have two already, wouldn't be much effort to find room in the pack considering how compact that filter is. I think I saw that video about the wrench, did they use two in combination to snap a padlock? I didn't mention the weapon aspect since I figured it would great an unnecessary debate. My carry weapon is a Glock 19, never leave home without it. Got the eye pro covered now, but still need to order those N-95 masks. Liking the idea of a socket set and multi drive screw driver, big thumbs up on that one, good call! About the cart or someway to transport, grocery carts are a dime a dozen, would be probably easy to locate and use on. Maybe I could use one of those large game carts that hunters use? Thanks again for the input, stay tuned for Version 2, should be putting out that video in a month or so...

[@WastelandSeven]

Maybe even better would be an older model hand held scanner. The old ones could pick up police and air traffic frequencies. (the police frequencies are blocked on a lot of the new ones I understand) That way you could keep track of about anything that was broadcasting in your locality. Also, keep in mind that if things get bad enough, the bad guys might be using police cars for 2 way.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Was looking at some bearcat scanners yesterday. Even beyond use in a SHTF situation, it provides great intel on what's going on in and around your area. When I used to visit my Grandfather for the summer, we'd sit in the garage listening to the scanner and reloading ammo. Good times :)

[@peterbehringer63]

@@TheSurvivalOutpost Hi there! ...good rainy afternoon tropical greetings from Caracas. Answer: Depends on the acceptance of the script/screenplay and/or a proof of concept short film or a episode (10-15min.+/-)...if one of the cable channels or streaming platforms agrees to buy a complete season episode package, we could have a launch ready for airing for the public by early 2023 under ideal conditions. A Teaser Note: the content in the story should be of great interest to the prepper, bushcraft and outdoors enthusiast communities as well as the post-apocalyptic fiction fandom, so i am expecting influencers in those areas to get on board to lend a hand if the production here gets a green light! Synopsis: The story is a mash-up of elements of The Walking Dead, Mad Max, Lara Croft Tomb Raider and The Book of Eli, with a spicy tropical flavor, and the eventual triumph of good over evil, as our main protagonist evolves from a city slicker professional young woman (who bugs-out on foot from a chaotic ravaged capital city towards a rural community sanctuary) to become a survival skill savvy local folk hero. Some memorable villains and dangerous critters are guaranteed!

[@stevetaylor1778]

The bolt cutters could be removed from the pack if their primary purpose is to cut chain link fence. A leatherman, pliers or similar tool, is all that is needed to make passage through chain link fence. Straighten out a "loop" on the bottom and un twist the same vertical wire at the top. that wire will spiral out toward the top very easily.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

That's a great point, thanks!

[@MrGunny2009]

Getting rid of the lockpick tools and the bolt cutter will also reduce your "burglary tool" profile if you get stopped and searched.

I like the concept you have for the kit. I remind me of gears use in breaching rescue or force entry.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Thanks, I tried to consider what I would need and want if there was no rule of law.

[@warlockcommandcenter]

When doing a B&E you may find it best not to leave the location wide open so your first choice should be a to pick the locks so the can be left lock if you find a real big hoard of food. That requires a number of trips. Your right about this whole concept, remember most of us will consider going vulture to be simple looting and kill a looter so be careful. If thing get hard someone may hold up in a lock building going out at odd hours that could run you into a conflict. I know if I'm resorting to looting the stakes are very high.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

I couldn't agree, yes it could take more time to pick a lock, but keeping that entry discreet can make a big difference for many reasons. Even if it's not full of "treasure" it could still maybe be used for shelter or cache gear or weapons short term. And when it comes to being careful, you can bet I'll be moving at low light time keeping my profile low and always toting the AK and Glock! Thanks for watching!

[@warlockcommandcenter]

My brother is a Meth Head and they seem to lay around the house all day then go out at Night. Then they steal anything not tied down. I know how they are about stealing. My concern is that they would show up at their nest with a fresh dose of Meth. I don't care if I had to shoot one but I also don't want to leave a bullet that can lead back to me. Like that wouldn't happen all that stuff isn't registered any where. I use to work at a place that locked up all the tools and supplies they purchased for their employees to use. So two shifts a day you could not get to a anything. I put my skills at B&E to good use unlocking lock doors and windows so people could use the supplies and tools that were there for them to use. My most common tool was a very thin blade folding knife this was good for windows and some locks. one time there was a door that the Company kept locked but I noticed that the window next to it could be unlocked easy with my thin knife so I unlocked it one evening I worked there 4 more years and no one ever saw it was unlocked.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Yep that's their SOP, steal anything not tied down. We have a huge meth issue here in Tennessee, run into my fair share. I too have a thin blade with me and an old credit card that helps with most cheap locks. Too bad you had to break into your own work place to get tools to do work!

Given how trigger happy most preppers seem across the pond I'd be happy to have a periscope if I lived over there. The ability to see round a corner without putting your head around would be a certain life saver. It would be interesting to see a video on any strategies that you might have too. Where to target, what to look for etc. Me personally I would try to avoid one of these situations going alone. Ideally you'd have comms with at least one other person and have a number of diversions set up. I would also suggest any strategies possible to ensure that you are not being followed. Changing routes, trip wires, doubling back and an overwatch if possible

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

a periscope could come in very handy. diversions and kill zones and funnels. i don't about trigger happy, I don't see any news about preppers shooting people

[@fdnyesu]

Nice pack! Where can I get one of those multi keys? If you don't already have one I suggest getting a police scanner for your pack. While your smart phone has scanner apps in a shtf event your phone won't be much use. However scanners run on AA batteries and transmit on the UHF/VHF frequency which will allow you to not only hear your local pd/fd but amateur radio also. Having the upper hand on knowing where people are is key.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

+BlindShooter Declan Good point on the scanner...you can pick up the 4 way key here: amzn.to/1scTIzS

[@MasterK9Trainer]

I thought since the idea is to breach obstacles, a possible option would be to use a demolition tool that's like a crowbar and hammer combined such as the Fatmax by Stanley. The second thought, was to have rope or a rope ladder to help get into basements, lower rooms, or to climb up and then ascend when finished. Tarps, canvas bags, or maybe a bucket and a few carabiners can be used to collect and lift or lower supplies. It's probable that after a breakdown of society that those who tend to seek trouble will damage and vandalize resources before thinking how it's useful.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Those demo tools are awesome, I considered getting a Fatmax. Really depends on your intention. If you are simply want to get into a facility to loot, then break down the door. If you are considering a building for shelter, then you want to be a bit more discreet I would think.

[@MasterK9Trainer]

Certainly, but sometimes we might just need to remove a few boards or pry open a window. I personally have yet to buy or train with a lockpick set. I am not too bad with old credit cards and door knobs. :)

Also adding cheater bars to the bolt cutters will give the leverage needed to cut locks and bolts. ( for those who don't know a cheater is a small pipe that fits over the tool handle to add leverage)

To get gas from modern cars in SHTF the easiest method is to take a screw driver and puncture the plastic gas tank. It's a lot less weight and bulk than the siphen kit.

[@TheSurvivalOutpost]

Good point, less weight and easier to operate. I guess the only issue would be if you did not have a way to get a can fully under the tank, let's say if the vehicle was literally sitting on the ground etc. The hose makes it easier to get gas no matter the position of the vehicle.
