- Lots of Medical Questions lately from viewers, as there should be; if you are going to prepare to defend yourself, you need to prepare for Trauma. Have medical gear. Carry and store it properly; and get medical training.
First, and foremost: Do NOT buy cheap medical gear!!! AirSoft Med Gear is just for looks. Seriously, I have seen fake tourniquets break. Literally BREAK.
Second, you do not have to order from me. There are great kits and medical gear out there. I would prefer that you buy medical gear from your medical instructors, so you are using the actual gear that you trained with. Example: I bring tons of my EDC Medical Kits to all my classes.
If you are interested in buying my EDC Medical Kit, that I used in this video; you can reach out directly to me at Tacticalrifleman1@gmail.com. I sell the following:
Basic EDC Medical Kit $55
Advanced EDC Medical Kit (with QuikClot Gauze) $81
CAT-7 Tourniquet $42
I offer a discount for Patreon Patrons
I charge Flat Rate Shipping: $8 for 1 or 2, $16 for 3-10).
Again, I'll have them for purchase at all our TR Courses this year.
I hope you enjoyed the video. Crush the like button for us. Strength & Honor, TR.

The 5 people who disliked this video must not have been in a shoot out or helped a friend that has been shot...... This is good content and educational. I have been a volunteer firefighter and 1st responder for 20 years and seen something’s that normal people could not handle. I have saved lives and lost lives.
We all know haters are gonna hate. If you dislike Tactical Rifleman and the TR family.......... don’t let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya!
Karl as always, Thank you for your services, sacrifices and your knowledge brother!

Thanks for the support
Tactical Rifleman always my brother!
Well, the point Karl made at the 8:30-9 minute can go both ways.
I really carry specialized medical equipment (like a decompression needle) to keep my medic from running out of supplies. I prefer to carry my medical supplies in case my whole team gets shot, stabbed, run over, or eaten by wolves. That way, the medic can save his supplies for civilians or whatever else.
If you're running around playing airsoft, then you probably should not carry syringes and saline lock kits, though.

I've learned several ways to fold TQ and this one is a game changer. Thanks for what y'all do.
Glad to help!
Your skills and experience are literally life saving. Thanks again.
Great video. We have far to many people in the tactical community that's medical knowledge consistent of slapping a bandaid on a scratch.
Its crazy how many people dont think of carrying a medical kit. Long before I even got into a career field where holes were possible, I knew it was important to keep good medical equipment around. But so many people also forget that training and knowledge of how to use the equipment is the most important thing in your kit.
For a minute reminded me of a CLS class that we had to take every year in the regular U.S. Army teached by the 68Ws and sometimes civilians.
I my self am a army vet just a cook and squad designated marksmen with a little clearance never cooked much but I'm now teaching folks how to be proficient with there fire arms so this video is fantastic we have been discussing medical lately du to current events on our soil and abroad its verry important I'm trying to get my self and fellow vets to classes do brush up or for some of us simple learning what to do not every one had to use it so brush up are great idea thanks for fantastic video
This is why I like your programs, depth. You cover not just shoot move and communicate but every associated aspect of a self defense situation. Keep up the good work.
Brother you should come to the live streams! 🤣🤣🤣🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Ive heard a lot of ppl say that if u don’t no how to use it don’t carry it. I always say that just because I don’t know how to use it doesn’t mean the guy next to me doesn’t know how to. I keep all that stuff on my belt and range bag.
NAR is where I have been buying from and they carry a wide variety of med supplies. You can also look at Bleed Control and they sell med too but not as wide selection as NAR. Great info here, thanks Karl. 🇺🇸
Only other thing I would include would be a mylar blanket. Chances are, during severe hemorrhage, the likelihood of hypothermia setting in substantially increases! That's just what I keep on me! Keep releasing good material, brother
Good tip with stowing the C.A.T. 7 TQ Carl!!
Between my battle belt and plate carrier, I carry 4 C.A.T. 7s, and will reconfigure them!!
“You don’t have to the fancy kydex specially made tourniquet pouches” Fieldcraft, shots fired.
Absolutely. $45 for that piece of stuff. Not illegal but not in spirit of helping neighbors he preaches.
@@rueridge7597, but understand that Mike is also trying to profit. They are rather expensive, and I do not own one, but I can see the mitigation of the price.
Great stuff as always. Someone watching these med videos will one day use a kit to save a life. Guaranteed. If it hasn't already happened.
My girlfriend: "Are you really going to bring that stupid backpack?!"
Also my girlfriend:"That bicyclist got run over, somebody should call an ambulance!"
If you've ever gotten into an argument with the misses because you wanted to bring the CLS kit to family dinner, go ahead and hit that subscribe button. Like, comment, all that good stuff... The comment section is out of control.
First aid lives on my backpack.
Take it everywhere, almost forget about it.
Proud to say I thankfully haven’t had to use anything serious, just bandaids and disinfectant.
I have actually gotten into arguement about bringing my trauma bag with me. Because my friends and I were just going to pick up some supplies and head to the Grocery store.
Just reading this comment, I can hear him saying it
Hm. For once that was the final thing the first time.
Ain't that the truth. My family bags on me all the time. I do not leave the house for ANYthing without what they call my "Fallujah bag"! It's basically a 30 liter commuter backpack with all my EDC kit in it...plus full trauma gear with redundancies for my kids, etc. The wife says "I'm COLD, do you have a jacket"? I pull out a synthetic insulated jacket or vest. My kid says "dad I forgot my sunglasses...for our mountain bike ride"...I pull out a spare pair of Wiley X shades for him. Ten seconds later, the wife says "My sinuses are killing me, do you have anything"? I reach into my pharmaceuticals/meds kit and give her sudafed...It is freaking hilarious! Then the other kid says "I forgot my asthma inhaler at school! Dad can I borrow YOURS"?
So whenever they bust my balls about taking it with...YEAH WHATEVER!
Thanks bud - best thing I have learned all week. 👍👍
Thanks Karl. Have RATS tourniquet but it is much more narrow than the one you have. Time to upgrade. Live on acre and 1/2 with grandchildren and am realizing that first aid is about much more than gun shot wounds.
rats tourniquets failed the CoTCCC tests and didn't get approval... So yes, pick one of the 7 (if I remember correctly) tourniquets currently approved you like most ;)
Keep your RATS. Especially if you have children around. Small limbs and animals is where RATS shines. Just because some groups nix it doesn’t mean squat. Baling wire and a stick will work if that’s all you have.
@@rueridge7597 there are tourniquets which are proven effective, then there's the RATS. Would you risk your life with a product that might work, when there are some that will work? Consider that is the child is grown enough adult tourniquets will work, if he's so small that the tourniquet does not work you could not even need a tourniquet because putting direct strong pressure on the limb will suffice. Of course you do with what you have, but not planning is like planning for failure... Check all the pictures of men dead with all sort of improvised tourniquets on the thighs
@@rueridge7597 there are more studies demonstrating the CAT is effective on children than the RATS.
What I always suggest at tccc courses to the students is to have custom kits according to what you are doing/where you are going... You want to be prepared for the worst case scenario, but you also want to be prepared for the most likely scenario, which fortunately is less dramatic. What I also tell people is to get good basic "civilian" medicine before approaching tccc, because tccc is all about exceptions and forcing rules... But you should know the rules first, otherwise if you use tccc skills in civilian life without a clear view on what you're doing you are most likely going to get in trouble.
True words of wisdom. Thanks, Karl. I think your kit is the only one I've seen with 200" of duct tape. Nice touch. Makes sense.
Nice! I like the “pull handle” set up for upper torso! 👍👊
I've been carrying a gun for a couple years and realized it's stupid not to have first aid so I got a march medical ifak resupply kit, it has everything I need and then some. I also went to the methadone clinic in my town and was able to get some Narcan. It's not just for drug abuse, my grandma mixed up her medication once and almost died of an opiate overdose, now I'll be prepared if something like that happens again
Thanks! Great tip on prepping the tourniquet
Glad it was helpful!
Got my TCCC, EMT, and AEMT from North American Rescue.
Online EMT?
If you're a Veteran you can awsome discounts from North American Rescue! I bought the T.O.R.K which is normally $140. After discount $100!! Gen.7 Tourniquet will cost $20 instead of $30 etc. You'll have to send them a picture of your DD214 then wait for their approval.
Thanks for sharing
ANOTHER excellent video Karl.👍
Thanks for sharing your invaluable knowledge and experience with us!!!🤜🤛🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thanks Karl for this approach of using the gear with the "wrong" hand. I have always the thinking of a medic (much stuff in a backpack or ambulance) ... but not such an Action Situation. Thank you for sharing in such transparent ways.
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome tip on Tq setup for self care! Thanks Karl. 🇺🇸
I appreciate the detailed explanation and walk through. Thank you for taking the time.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good kit I took TCCC awesome training, keep up the awesome videos
The information that you put out is AWSOME. It’s important to be prepared for yourself, your family and others. Thank you very much for what you have done and continue to do.
Excellent! This was the best demonstration on how to store and apply a tourniquet. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you, very important information ,I like the mini bandage, very smart, That maid me realise that I need to practice again, Thank you Brother. God bless 🙏
Hmmm? I’ve always folded tourniquet but left larger loop for getting around leg quickly. But like idea of “handle” fold you showed. Might be helpful handling when in pain or impaired judgement. Have to sit tonight and experiment. 10 gauge vs 14 gauge needle for t-pneumothorax. Opinion. 7th gp 18D suggested it to me if only carrying one. Less clogging etc.
Great info as always. Hopefully Chad will dry gulch slap you some night and after he’s been Kraken’d you can do live as it happens demo. Lectures are OK but lab always better. 🤣🤣🤣
In this smaller 250k city, 911 will get you an ambulance anywhere in the city in 5 minutes or less. I should carry a more complete kit, but I have one tourniquet, a 3-inch gauze roll for wound packing, and a pressure dressing. I should carry chest seals and quik clot gauze.
Great training video. Like to see videos on essential items we should have and how to properly use the gear.
Great job! Always a good item to review.
Thank you for your time and effort.
Awesome video, Karl.
I am 1000% with you, that medical gear and stuff ALWAYS should real and not for decoration only.
Also on playing airsoft, biking, hiking and whatever of kind on outdoor activities.
I always have my ifak with me when I work as a garbage man with the truck. And also by playing airsoft. (no real shooter, just for fun, cause weapon laws in germany are very strengh and i don't want to kill anybody)
No need for expensive gucci stuff, just the basics and sometimes refreshing the first aid knowlege.
You can looking cool with other stuff...
This is for saving lifes. 👍
Appreciate that.
Thank you for all, Karl.
Lovely greetings from germany.
😉🤗🤝🍻🇺🇸🇩🇪
Thanks for watching, TR
Awesome video as always Karl. Thank you for giving us your military knowledge (as much as you can ofc). Keep it up dude
The people asked and karl delivered.
I carry my IFAK equipment in an ankle kit I got from Warrior Poet. I can easily reach it with either hand as it's on one of my ankles. I wear mine everyday all day. It has a pouch perfect for the tourniquet.
"Tactical Rifleman": Thanks for the excellent video G.I.!
Thank stay safe out there on the Range
I am trying to reach out to everybody I can think of. You have a practical, down to earth channel. Thankyou for sharing :)
Thanks for the support.
Appreciate what you are doing, man! Very educational content!
I appreciate that!
That's a great one. Thank you
Asked my brother/sister, first responders; how to set up a IFAK?
-for what cuts, burns, chem...?
They said that its like a tool box, very personal and up to you...
i feel you should carry the 14 ga. needle even if you don't know how to use. IF you got shot and require it someone may know how to use it, but may not have one.
But Mom always has my first aid when I get a bo-bo in airsoft
Bo-bo?
It seems a small boo boo kit is necessary
NAR doesn't make the tourniquets, they buy them from C.A.T resources.
Thanks for the info, good to know what to have just in case its needed.
Thank you Karl! As usual very informative video. Excellent advice on tourniquet readiness!
Karl, i have been trying to work out how to say thank you for mentioning me in some of your videos without trying sound like some sort of kisser, or putting you down over it? Even though knowing I am Scottish with a Scottish Sense of Humour? But Sincerely thank you anyway for mentioning me in some of them! Thanks for been Awesome! Karl, And keep up the Awesome! Work yous do, your Aussie Bud, Gav!
SHIT, Son... Pre-setting up that CAT tourniquet how you did: SOLID. I’m telling you. I just set up all of my CATs like that right now. Thanks again for the vid, brother. 👏🇺🇸
Glad to help
Great video! Thanks for the advice. It is really nice to not have to learn some of these tips from experience. Very much appreciated!
Thanks for watching
Thank you!
Other than the overly long intro, good vid. Thanks.
Good basic aid kit...
Thank you!
My knowledge in this area is a little weak. Great video
Awesome! Great video excellent instruction and information, thank you very much for sharing your knowledge.
Strength & Honor
God Bless
Glad you enjoyed it!
Take my strong hand...
Thanks for this video.
Great info and products! Thanks Karl!
Suckup 😂😂😂
Perhaps a bright colored tourniquet next time so a person like me with and old iPhone se can see the tourniquet better hard to see the black and how your folding it
But I think I did it correctly 🍩
Karl did you see the video of the person who got shot with a rubber bullet and the people around him were acting like he was going to die even though he had a tiny scratch. They put a tourniquet on his leg that wasn't at the top of his leg and also he wasn't bleeding that much.
Yes. 🤣🤣😂
Good info. I like how you demonstrated pulling the strap towards your core. (A good way to remember it is red tip towards the heart) Pulling away from the core can be done, but its not as efficient( like throwing a football cross body). I use my old gen 6 C A Ts to practice and carry gen 7. Any thoughts on training scars in regards to having someone else remove the tk after practicing putting the tk on your own extremity?
Nope. Just happy that you practice
Awesome video 👍
They probably dont need NPA. I need to get more npa, along with 3, 1/2 needles, and I have plenty of chest seals with good hydra gel. No gel no deal. Oh yeah if you cant duck It.......
I have used duck tape and super glue. Dont ask that was a bad day.
No happy ending
Thanks for the video
I'll have to start staging my tqs that way!
I got a bear mini IFA
North American Rescue Gen 7 Tourniquets for $24.99 at LAPD Gear. First time order 10% off.
Just joined LAPG site and ord'd 3 tourniquets. Missed the separate 10% discount email from them while I was ordering, but should be able to use it for next order, whenever that might happen.
@@retnav92 / Glad I could help, they're my go to site for Tourniquets why pay $30 plus when you can get them from LAPD Gear. Be safe & GOD Bless You & Yours :)
@@arthurdsoto5751 Thanks. At that price I couldn't resist buying 3 of them at once. One for range bag IFAK (ifak stays in truck), one for wife's car, and one for off-body edc shoulder bag.
@@retnav92 /I have 2 on my IFAK in my Truck, 2 on each camel pack & 2 on my carrier. Never can have enough.
Thoughts on olaes bandages? Especially as a edc do-most bad day medical piece.
Duct tape really works like magic on almost everything
1 or 2 turns after ow that f****g hurts
Good food
The family never understood why I have a trauma kit, 2 bleed out kits and a couple of booo kits. I carry most of the stuff every where I go. It’s better to be prepared and never need it.
I completely agree, at 16 I have what i think is a high amount of first aid knowledge, and i’ve spent around $700 in first aid kits and my parents hate it. I always believe it’s better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.
@@Pugrug. Yes sir. You may get some flak but when T.S.H.T.F you sir will be the most needed guy around. Bravo I salut you. It’s expensive but worth it if and when a emergency comes. Some people spend money on stupid stuff at least we spend money to be ready in a crisis. Nice to see a guy so ready at a young age.
Китайские турникеты хороши только для тренировок. Спасибо за видео.
Not to be the odd ball, any more than I already am. What order ring is that? It does not look like blue lodge.
Carry it anyway. Someone around you will most likely know how to use the gear you don't. Or learn
Hey Karl, what kind of sheath/multicam molle pouch are you using to retain that belt knife?
The cheap MOLLE sheath that came with each knife. Just attach with Zip ties
Duck tape comes with a degree numbers...wich one is the best or stronger?
Youre not set, you need to pull up on the windlass after cinching it down to take up the slack, then twist the windlass.
You also dont turn the windlass until bleeding stops, you turn it until peripheral pulses go away.
What if they have an amputation, what pulse should you assess?
@@andrewfisher5359 more than 1 pulse point on an extremity.
@@mcal9320 cessation of pulses or cessation of bleeding are both adequate means to assess for proper tourniquet application.
@@andrewfisher5359 wrong, a tourniquet is designed to stop pulses. If you have no pulse but a bleed, then you didnt stop the pulse, despite not feeling it or multiple arteries and or veins are involved.
Its not uncommon to need more than 1 TK on an extremity.
Its also possible to have a pulse and appear to have stopped the bleed. But infact because the pulse is still present. Although it may be weak, blood is still getting past and pooling into the extremity. Thus, not stopping the bleed, only slowing it.
Whenever a tourniquet is applied to an extremity for hemorrhage control, it should be made tight enough to completely obliterate the distal pulse. This is to ensure that no blood is getting past the tourniquet and into the extremity.
@@mcal9320 most organizations that offer instruction on tourniquet application and hemorrhage control have cessation of hemorrhage as an indicator of successful tourniquet application. May I ask your reference for this?
Hi there , what the story behind SADDAM HUSSEIN picture???
I took it from one of his palaces during the initial invasion of Iraq in 2003. He didn’t need it any more.
@@TacticalRifleman a thing to remember
Couldn't find that kit on the NMR website.
Gotta order from tacticalrifleman1@gmail.com
@@TacticalRifleman Roger Sergeant Major.
Are there any good sources you would recommend for learning emergency medical aid? Unfortunately, it seems like this subject is overlooked far too often.
Check locally. Many fire departments others will steer you
Pretty good information. I do not agree that high and tight is needed for TQs or that anyone should be carrying items for which they are not qualified to use. One last thing, CoTCCC recommends items and doesn't approve.
42.00 for a Tourniquet.........no
Sorry, I have to buy them and then piss time away away shipping. If you come to classes, I sell all items ten bucks cheaper

Karl what about tourniquets from here?
I have never been there
@@TacticalRifleman I looked at the website and they seem pretty legit im trying to get a confirmation on that.
When I typed in the address a website came up for tourniquets and it claims its the original CAT tourniquets.
Yes, red blood cells are important. Just ask vampires.
Because if you can’t duct it …. F….k it! 🇺🇸💪👍. Fjb

dude, its very evident north American rescue is your sponsor. Its better to have something vice nothing. Quit pushing your sponsor
Actually, they are NOT a sponsor. I but my kits from them. Wish I had a promo code or affiliate code, but I don’t.
