Man, you are making me want to build one of these now I also see that you aren't a true operator since you didn't do any ninja moves clearing left and right after firing :tsk:

Okay, good info, thanks for that. I wasn't aware of the tissue damage concerns. I pretty much assumed it was one of those last-resort items, but wasn't sure. I have a big box full of first aid supplies that vendors would give me as samples, ranging from band aids all the way up to 100 person...

@ATLEMT, what are your thoughts on QuikClot? I have a couple small packs of it that I keep with my kits (also have some of that blood clotting spray stuff), but I've wondered if they are worth the cost compared to a large trauma pad. I've never used either, figured you would know.

Trauma pad, tourniquet, antiseptic

Usually carry 3 extra (1911), 2 in a double mag holster and 1 in my pants mag pocket

I can be bought for 50% discounts ........ just sayin

Depending on what you are looking to do, you might be better off arranging it yourself. PM Inbound

I'll have to read up on them; Any idea on taste and cleaning?

One of the perks of the 72 is the ability to fit a 3L bladder (I'm still on the fence between a Camelback & Osprey) along with the expanded section that nearly doubles the pack's capacity. I liked the idea of being able to leave the bag loaded with the essentials and then shove a wad of clothing...

The 72 is bigger than I need (purposefully bought larger just in case I decide to expand my contents), but capability is awesome ..... that price tag though :(

5.11 72hr Rush bag currently, thinking about getting a rush 24 for the vehicle.

I don't drink whiskey, only marinade with it ;)

You'll need to double those amounts for anything above an 8oz steak; you can also adjust amounts for taste, but what I listed tenderizes and imparts a little flaor.

For steak, I've had good experiences with a quick Jack Daniels marinade: 1 Cup JD 1/2 cup apple juice 1/4 cup Worcestershire Let sit for 30 mins, (flip bag half-way through), remove from bag, add kosher salt & cracked black pepper, grill hot (600+) and fast, let rest for 5 mins under tin foil...

Yeah, you definitely need a beer then
