Milspec Monkey Adapt Pack (Update)
• Milspec Monkey Adapt P... - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
You are definitely prepared. Im 71 and I to have a get home bag. Mine is much smaller. I ruck frequently and have downsized 3-4 times. Mine is geared for speed....shelter, staying dry, water etc, medical and bang bang. I have a chest rig with binocular, maps, compass, phone/charger and snacks. Thats it.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
the Escape Bivy saved my life, when a night expected to be 5°C became much colder (-6°C with sleet and wind) unfortunately it is way too small for most people, I am a small guy, I am lucky.
Yeah, it’s certainly is not my primary plan, but it is there just in case. Thanks for watching. Thanks for commenting.
great video and pack...my 2 cents: everyone focuses on all these items for every scenario (such as 3 water filtration systems) when in reality, you should be physically capable of walking/jogging/rucking/running 20 miles. Physical fitness is the most overlooked asset for preparation.
I cannot agree more, this is something I’m in the process of doing that now. Thanks for watching and commenting.
This. Absolutely, this.
I like that bag! I'd probably want a little smaller and minimalistic though while still fitting the essentials.
I think when i looked they had a few in that style of different sizes.

Subscribed.
Hope to see many more videos on your channel.
I appreciate the sub, there are over 200 atm. If there are any topics you want to see covered feel free to let me know.
Great video add some otc meds for your boo-boo kit. Benadryl, Tylenol or whatever. I would also add single packet of triple antibiotic and burn gel . Small comfort items, but needed. And the Benadryl also you don’t know you are allergic to Something until you are exposed. I may know where you can get a fully stocked boo-boo kit.
I think the Rufuge boo kit may have that covered, but I’ll check.
Looks like u mixed ur everyday with your truck with your emergency leave home but all good stuff
It really is but mainly because of the distance I work from home. The thing I think most people miss is, I can always ditch stuff for weight or if I am not using it. Thanks for watching and for commenting.
Good stuff brother. I'm of the same mindset of getting home versus bugging out. I have alternate places l can go but getting home will be my default choice if anything goes sideways.
Thanks for watching and commenting, see you in a few days hopefully.
I've been in emergency medicine for 55 years... you have too much medical gear! 4 tourniquets???? In reality, you probably don't need one. If you need one, you're not getting home. You need more water transport: bottles, bladders etc. Get a Silcock key and scout places on your path home where you can get water (don't forget public buildings such as schools and libraries). I was in an infantry platoon in Viet Nam (as a medic) and I think you need to ditch some of the ammunition. The sooner you leave the less likely to meet armed resistance. Even then, avoiding confrontations increase your chances of getting home. Also ditch most of the food and fire-starting gear. Jerky, nutrition bars, even SOS lifeboat bars will sustain you for the trip home. Keep eating. Keep drinking. And keep walking. I don't know what's in your EDC bag but a good poncho to keep dry is a must. Finally, I'd never heard of trail toes. I'm going to Google and see if they're going in my get home bag.
Thanks for the comment. No matter what i always have 4 tq’s because i have 4 limbs. That’s just my standard, never gonna change. I have a bladder in my edc pack, plus a Nalgene that goes everywhere with me, plus another collapsible one in my water kit that includes a silcock key. As far as the ammo goes I’m more then willing to have more then i need, better then not enough, but i am also all about avoidance. And again with the food, also with some of the other gear, i can always stash/dump what i don’t think i need. And yeah food wise all i should need is just the meal bars i have. Although this is my kit for winter too, and in that case i might need/want something warm.
Nice self defense tool !
Solid kit Max, I would put an actual road flare in there you never know when you need to make a distraction with a vehicle lol and that would make Jay super happy if it was in there.
I am thinking the same, thanks for watching bro.
@@maxspath always I always watch them. I don't always comment though I need to fix that.
@@gunfighterconcealment no worries bro, i have the same issue
Nice idea I suggest converting to rechargable headlamp and flashlight and power bank can also recharge your cell phone
Yeah i have a couple of power banks in my edc bag, but i also have spare batteries for the headlamp
What pack model of La Police gear wear you running prior to new upgraded pack ?
Thanks for sharing n' God bless brother
Nice Yota brother! Map and compass I'm assuming you probably have in ur EDC bag. I would change a thing other than a battery bank. I also carry a small jar of honey! Great video! Beautiful bag! 🤙🏼
Thank you, sir, and yes, map and compass live in the EDC bag and would be transferred over.
@@maxspath 🤙🏼👍🏻🇺🇸
If you can’t walk 20 miles in a day you need to lighten your load and get out and practice walking. 20 miles should only take 5-6 hours under decent conditions, and if you move slower it’s better to just keep walking than to spend the night in the bush at that distance.
I appreciate your input, but I’m painfully aware of my walk home and the pace i can keep. I plan always for worse case scenario. I would rather have stuff with me that i can always dump or stash, then need it and not have it.
All good gear. IMO if the purpose is really as a GHB and your likely scenario is a 20 mile walk home, you could eliminate 75% of that gear and have a much lighter load that would let you make up those miles a lot faster.
Thanks for watching and commenting
Roughly 3 miles an hour, we’re looking at 7-1/2 hours with breaks. It’s bad enough that for whatever reason he’s having to walk, can’t catch an Uber and he’ll be doing it kitted up, with a rifle... Why would he not get home as fast as possible? I’m just trying to wrap my head around the philosophy of the get home bag and choosing not to get home in a VERY walkable distance in emergency circumstances, as quickly as possible. I agree, very much overkill for the task.
@@MochiMoose Probably closer to 2 MPH with that much gear. I have the same distance commute and have a GHB in my car. It weighs 10.5 pounds including water. I would say his would be more suitable as a multi-day pack.
Most realistic comment right here. I find a lot of these videos turn into a show and tell, look what I got type of nonsense.
I need to get home, 20 miles, but just in case I can’t make it in 2 days I have to be prepared to be out here for about 3 weeks type of loadout, totally unrealistic.
@@justdigit777 hmm i would love to hear your experience. I know i can’t walk 20 miles in 1 day, but i know i can do it in 2-3, so that is what this is set up for. What would you take out, specifically? I want to hear other people’s opinions, i encourage someone to respond with thought, i have no time for people that just decide they want to shit talk.
A GHB for most get homes could fit in a fanny pack. These massive bags with carbines and the food that requires you too stop and cook is so out of touch.
Water (water filter).
Couple protein bars.
Caffeine pills.
Duct tape as repair, bandage and moleskin, etc.
Torch lighter (wind proof and have never failed me, ty dollarama).
Rechargeable flashlight with a battery pack (already charged up !).
Painkillers.
Navigation - I.e. map and compass.
Wool socks.
Proper footwear (something you've done this in before).
Weather appropriate clothing.
Poncho, even disposable one.
Knife.
Pistol (Concealed).
Max 3 mags.
Decent watch to track your pace.
About a fanny pack or chest bag or sling bags worth I'd say.
Keep your head on a swivel. Keep checking your phone for news updates and communications with friends/family. Mind your own business on the road. Don't sleep just rest. Keep moving.
Can’t wait to see you make said video.
How much does all of this weigh? THis seems like way to much stuff. maybe just 1 tourniquet if you need more than 1 you likely are not making it home. Ditch the hammock, fire making, and less ammo and all that water decon stuff(a sawyer will do just fine), way less rope maybe like 10-20 feet paracord wrapped around something you are already bringing instead of all of that plus the reel thing. I would think keeping as low of a profile and making the least signature as possible would be ideal. Bivvy with a sleeping bag is a great idea, low on the ground. I would however add like a couple of aleve and ibuprofen if thats not in the med kit,2nd pair of socks and like a tiny 5000mah battery bank. Maybe instead of the food, add meal bars. SOS labs and ready hour make some incredibly calorie dense bars. Ive had the sos labs one, it taste like a very dense first try of a shortbread cookie. Also good choice on the backpack mystery ranch makes fantastic products
It actually weighs less then my other pack did, and yes i do have redundancy on a bunch of stuff and have started working on eliminating some things. But Medical, fire making, and shelter aren’t things i plan on reducing. Thanks for commenting.
One thing that i didn't see anf probably one of the most important items if you are walking home, is a change of socks.. yes you have a foot medical bsg, but you really need an extra pair of wool socks in there
I have a bag in my vehicle that has spare clothes including spare socks. Thanks for watching and interacting.
I would say wicking sock liner. Very light and low profile. Can be found at most outfitters. great gear, i always bring a few on my backpacking trips.
Definitely ready for a gun fight.
Several comments/suggestions (take with a grain of salt as all bags should be different):
Caffeine pills. Absolutely no reason to not have in your bag. Most overlooked essential item in most bag videos. Alert is alive and stopping to rest may not always be an option.
Ditch the mountain house. This is a get home bag, not a camping out bag. The goal is to keep moving. All food should ready to eat for eating on the fly. Having to stop for meal prep is not a necessity, it’s a result of bad planning.
A compact pair of binoculars. Being able to know what is ahead of you could be a lifesaver.
One thing I see in a lot of GHB videos is a first aid kit with a tourniquet. Let’s be real. If you need a tourniquet for yourself, your chances of completing the journey home are close to nil. Good idea should you need to help others but even then, their chances to get home are slim to none as well. Not to say you shouldn’t carry one. But if needed, it’s just a matter of time to “game over” unless you find quality assistance.
There are more than few other suggestions but those are the big three.
Ok so i am going to first thank you for the comment and thoughts behind it.
First point the caffeine pills….i have no had the best reaction to them, which is why i have Mio water additive.
I love mountain house because it weighs nothing, but got the most part I’m depending on just the few meals bars i have in the pouch.
I will always have a built out ifak with me, Ava that’s top of the Medical in my edc.
I used to have a monocular in the bag, but it was cheap and broke. I really want to add a pair of small bino’s maybe even something with a range Finder.
@@maxspath regarding the caffeine pills. I generally never have a full one as I don’t normally have caffeine. I don’t want to be jumpy just alert. A full one would almost make me act like a tweaker.
@@thatguy2408 yeah for some reason my stomach never reacted well to them. And i have tried a few different bands, so i resign myself to the water additives.
How heavy is your bag?
Have you tried any miles with that on your back?
In the plans, but it’s lighter then the last one.
Mine is 28lbs with food and 3 quarts of water. But I am at any given time 104 miles from home. Sun-Wed
His bag is totally camera hyped 😂
@@silvercommander not hyped at all, rides in my car every day. So far i have done about 5 miles with it to get a feel for it. But i have done any long rucks yet.
@@silvercommander and please do a video on it, i would be curious to see how it’s set up.
Let’s be realistic 90% of the people have nowhere to bug out to. Why would you want to leave when your home is your home base with all of your preps. Bugging out should only be if you are being overrun or being hit by some sort of sudden storm out of a syfy movie.
I think it should be part of your preparation’s to a certain extent, but yes, for me realistically, I am bugging in.
In Cali, I call it an earthquake kit.😅
It depends where you live... Tornadoes, Hurricanes, Floods, Tsunamis, Wildfires, Avalanches, Blizzards, freezing temperatures and a Blackout, Earthquakes, Volcanos, Chemical disasters, a nuclear power plant broke down or a war may be good reasons to bug out. So having a good network / bol > 100 miles away would be on your top5 list
thats why he calls it a get home bag and not a bug out bag.
I would hate to see the size of your bug out bag lol
PUBG loot moment
Your more then welcome to try, but you would probably want to try doing something outside of a video game first.
@@maxspath correct, life isn't a game
Great if show bag first not all countries allow guns
Well thankfully for the moment i live in one that does
50L for a 2 day walk 😂
Please let me know how far you have walked, and with what you walked with? Have you ever had to deal with unknowns with shit hitting the fan? I’m really curious to hear your experience.
@@maxspath more than your 280lb fat a**
20 miles from home and you need a get home bag for it? I walk that distance in 4 hours maximum. What if you work 200 miles away? There you really need a get home bag.
Maybe you should make a video of you doing that, would love to see it.
@@maxspath walk that distance in 4 hours? I walk on treadmill 5 miles in a hour with normal speed. It's not rocket science to count how many hours I need to cover 20 miles.
@@Elias.Agg. like i said film it would love to see it
WTF. A big bag of paranoia. I watch these videos for ideas for an overnight bag. Planning for an apocalypse seems a little excessive..
Hmm then it might have been labeled a overnight bag, but hopefully you have a good time at your future sleep overs. Also make sure you apply to get your money back, once you have a chance.
Gosh, why do some TH-camrs not understand that you don't want your ears busted? Can you please equalize the volume? You're talking quite silently, then the intro blasts my ears.
Hmm first complaint of that, are you a subscriber? Do you comment or share or even like my videos on the regular?
Getting home to shave that scragly beard? Why are so many "preppers" unable to shave or keep their body weight to an acceptable % of bady fat??
Really a profound statement, thank you so much for commenting. More importantly for identifying yourself as a waste of space. Always good to know who those people are.
can someone link the med kit from the top pouch?

That is not exactly that kit, it looks like that one isn't being sold anymore.
