Just to clarify , the fact that we are applying for EU membership doesnt mean , me or my friends , or patriots agree , we all know is not good for our soul , our traditions and our deep culture , we stand for independent Georgia , no to everyone ! God Bless Georgia , we have few thousand year history and no mega empire was able to make us fall , many empires fell but Georgia always stood up , thats because we love God and we love freedom, this will never chance no matter what year we live in.
🥲 I am so amazed by the sturdiness of the Eastern European countries. Men, women, children, heck I thought I saw a cow with a weapon. Even the land itself knows who’s supposed to be there. 👍🏼. Stand strong
Ukraine Gov is a Nazi government, this is not conspiracy is a fact since the world wars. You not being a “partigiano” supporting a Nazi Government that kills their own people.
@@recondrone1776 Sorry but I’m not into propaganda I deal with reality. If Ukraines want to hide in residential buildings and hospitals and schools and attack Russia from those positions, more power to em, but don’t then say Russia attacked civilians. You know this war has been going on since 2014 right? And all those civilians Ukraine killed? I could care less about Ukraine or Russia. But let’s stop pretending that Ukraine is some kind of democracy fighting for freedom 🤦♂️ I can call out the wrongdoings of both sides, you cant
one little note regarding the info on your map, try to carry the map untouched and instead get a sheet of transparent acetate to write the info on there. only you should know exactly where to put the acetate sheet so it overlays on top of the map. that way you wont compromise your other shelters if the map gets captured. godspeed man
Also, be aware that anything that can transmit (send) a signal can be tracked (traced) (triangulated) back to your current location. So GPS, radios, internet, cellphones etc. can compromise your positions. But if you are going to use them, then you must maintain strict radio silence until an actual enemy contact takes place. Because the enemy would already know the general vicinity of where you are already when enemy contact is made. I personally wouldn't take any two way radio's, of course you lose the communication factor, but it allows your team to be ghosts. If you do opt to use radios etc. then after you leave the area of enemy contact, you must go back to radio silence. Most communication issues can be resolved through the initial, training, orders and rehearsals prior to any attack or ambush. So if you have any electronic devices that ONLY receive signals. Then you have nothing to worry about. Just make sure to keep the volume down or use head phones. If you use any type of electronic devices that can SEND signals. Then these signals can be captured, triangulated and your location can be compromised. I think most people could figure out what would happen next.
@@stupedcraig Yup some do, like the Garmin Rhino 750 2-Way Radio/GPS. They transmit when you talk through them to other users and I believe they can also transmit your GPS location to other Garmin Rhino's. All of these could be intercepted.
There is some tacticool guy out there in their feelings. Simple and to the point. Not all that fancy bs. Oh one thing to add, this man's gear is tested. He uses his tools, each and every one.
he is carrying a ton of weight on his back. Fine for a trained soldier (pack mule), but pretty difficult for a citizen militia if we're talking about more than backyard woods.
@@abyssaldision5134 maybe that is all he could get his hands on. Maybe it is a multi-use platform that will be beneficial for survival, self defense, and hunting. Maybe the only knowledge you have is from call of duty.
I have total respect for this Georgian patriot. He tells it like it is. Welcome to the Western world my friend. Didn't honestly know that citizens could own firearms there. Like your arms choices.
Western World doesn't tells it like it is. Our mainstream media are nearly full infiltrated by neocons/Destrukturalists, deconstructivsts, globalists, internationallists, Transhumanisten.
I’m in the Army. I recommend adding a small shovel to your kit. They can be used for many things and help build shelter or foxholes. Also, a durable fixed blade knife. I’d add more food in your pack, as well as some gun oil and rags to wipe your weapons down. Make sure you have plenty of socks and undergarments, I also recommend some good quality boots, at least 2 pairs. Your feet are your lifeline. 2-3 changes of durable clothes. Along with that, foot powder and much more baby wipes. That’ll be your shower for however long you’re out there for. Also a small inflatable camping pillow is nice.
This is a terrifying concept. I hope things go in a manner where you don't need to bug out. These past few years have taught me I need to train, learn, and practice. I wish you the best, brother.
I don't know how war would develop in Finland, Baltic States, Poland or Georgia(well we saw how that one went) where hills and forests are everywhere you go, but here in Ukraine our entire partisan movement is concentrated in the occupied cities. Especially in those with main transportation knots. Think about it: if your enemy is borderline "special education" but has areal reconnaissance and 20k artillery shells to waste per day would you risk sticking out like a sore thumb in the forest or mountains or just going "grey" in the city, with all comforts available to you and also your targets being at your hand's reach. You can't do much from the forest or mountains, that's what i'm getting at. Not with modern tech in hands of your enemy. You might kill 10 000 russians, but what would it change for their high command? Exactly zero. We killed and disabled 90k they still don't care. You need to destroy their logistics, supplies and collaborators so their advance would halt. And you can do that only from behind the enemy line. That means looking and acting as inconspicuous as possible, playing along, gaining their trust. But that's just me, a random Ukrainian.
@@just-incase3483 but he is carrying what most Americans own, not all people have the luxury of having anything else even in the USA. .06 was used during Nam for sniping and was very effective ask Carlos Hathcock.

It’s my hobby and I like hardware and well pissing off gun hating liberals 😉 I don’t hunt I think it’s over commercialized and I don’t even own a 30 06, the closest thing to a dear rifle is a FN FAL I built From a Argentine parts kit that’s 7.62-51 (308).
I'm from the 🇺🇸 and my family and I are praying for you and your countrymen. I love the shotgun, I love your channel. Stay strong and hold on to your faith. God Bless.
I also like the fact that you carry a mora knife. Mora knives are very dependable. I would have gone with the Garberg but that's a personal decision. I would recommend a larger knife such as a becker bk 2 or bk 9. They are full tang and built to take punishment. Also God forbid it comes down to war fare, a large knife has proven to be a great asset in battle where CQC is a factor. I recommend the becker knives because they are very affordable and as a edged weapons instructor I feel they meet both bushcraft, urban survival and close quarter combat needs. Just something to consider. Praying for you brother be safe.
As someone who's done a lot of camping, especially in colder weather, one thing I would suggest you add to your sleep system is a mattress or sleeping pad of some sort. Even the best sleeping bags can't protect you from the cold ground because of how the fill on the ground side of the sleeping bag gets compressed when laying on it. A good sleeping pad can give greater comfort, which leads to a better sleep and a better rested fighter.
Very true. You can add a paracord hammock which will get you off the ground. If you use 90 or 100 percent wool blanket and wrap up like a taco you stay pretty warm especially if you can't make a fire for security reasons. If you have a smaller blanket besides your wool blanket like a blanket shard, you can pit it inside the hammock and let it drape over rather edge so that it blocks convection.
@@bayoubushcraftandsurvival8842 I've tried hammocks but can't seem to get comfortable in one. I can see the advantage of a hammock in certain environments and terrain, like in warmer climates and the bayou for example, but that's rarely my case as I'm in the Pacific Northwest. I've found that in cold weather I still need some form of insulation - like a blanket as you've suggested - or with a sleeping pad.
@@dancancade7101 good point. Not living in hard winter conditions, I don't have the experience you and others might have in that regard. A good sleeping pad is not that heavy and would be beneficial.
@@bayoubushcraftandsurvival8842 trust me...when it's 3 a.m. & you're in your sleeping bag with your teeth chattering & you're shivering all over...a ground pad would be worth a fortune to you. No matter how good the bag is the ground leeches the heat from your body unless you out something in between it & you.
@@jefflockaby702 Leaves, straw, even torn up newspaper make a really good ground cover. My son and I did a true winter survival camp last winter. 5⁰ F highs for 3 days. No high dollar sleeping bags or tents, just tarps, wool blankets, and what we could carry. I am not going to lie and say that it was comfortable, but we survived.
If you have locations marked directly on your map that doesn't end well if it's lost, someone is captured or killed and searched. Have some sort of simple code masking coordinates and use an overlay or a ziploc to do any marking on the map so the map itself is clean and everything else not encrypted can be destroyed. Another easy way if you're doing an overlay is to make sure it's not the same size as the map but offset and ybut offset and use a couple of of major features on the map app to align it. This makes it difficult for someone else to understand your overlay. Good hunting
So a good way to secure this is to have a bottom part of that ziplock sealed off from the rest of it with waterproof matches you strike one of the matches and it will ignite the overlay. Quick way to instantly deny useful Intel
@@brianc9374 If you are referring to Nazism /Fascism; it's a minority subset minority factions within the Ukraine and doesn't define the entire country the way that they do the Democrat Party in the USA. Remember the Klan and the American Bund are affiliated with the DNC, but they definitely do not define the USA.
"Who wants to go to war with a dirty ass?"...lol, hell yeah man! Love it! Run fast and shoot straight, keep your eyes and ears open...my family and I are pulling for you guys, you're in our prayers. Long live the warriors who fight the good fight!
@@marineshtf9954 you can certainly miss your target with a shottie, so shooting straight still applies...in any case, I suppose that's why he has that 30.06 with him.
Stop eating crayons and get out to the range more… dont blame others for your admittedly poor skills. Ps there are these type of shotgun rounds called slugs, they are single projectiles rather then pellets like bird or buck shot. And slugs will shoot straight as long as the sights are good and shooters can shoot..
Great video, thank you for sharing. If I may make a suggestion for items to enhance your "pack". This is what I have done for my 'grab-n-go' bag: Take large diameter plastic beverage straws, pinch off one end with needle nosed pliers then melt that end and quickly pinch the end until it cools and seals (about 10 to 20 seconds). Then, fill the straw with what you need most (water tight). Then seal the open end in the same manner. This is what I put in my straws: spaghetti, rice, salt, sugar, coffee, creamer, cocoa mix, matches and striker, cotton balls (soaked in vaseline), small beans, dry spices, sewing needles and thread and assorted other items. These straws take up very little space and you can store enough food for at least one day, to supplement other food items in your backpack. I am not the originator of this technique, I learned it from a mountain game hunter years ago and share it with anyone that wants to learn. Sincerely hope you never have to defend your homeland like Ukraine is doing now.
Noticed some people have mentioned camouflaging your large bag. That is the only thing in this video that stands out to me especially the neon orange accents on it. A cheap option would be to buy an assortment of green and brown spray paint cans that match the forest colors and just spray paint it. That’s what we do in the military as a quick camouflage option as we always have Army issued spray cans lying around. Proud that y’all are taking your freedom and preparing so seriously being that I’m an American 🇺🇸
Also another tip move the tourniquet to your chest rig on your right side right next to the shotgun shell holder and above the knife. You can use rubber bands and loop them through the Molle loops and put the tourniquet through the rubber bands that way it’s secure and can be easily pulled off. If I could send pictures I’d show how we set that up on our plate carriers.
If you have to scavenge ammo, 30.06 is not readily avail. There will not likely be 30.06 ammo on the battle field, plan on getting a battle field pick up in AK47 or AKM74 cal

@@pseutube Do you live what your government is doing? Is YOUR government acting exactly how your people think and feel? Probably not. So try to use your thinking skills instead of nasty insults, and realize that a HUGE portion of our U.S. citizens do not agree with most, if not all, of our governments actions. That’s referring to you as well as ourselves. You know, I’m sure, that governments get to power crazed and do only what is in their best interests. Because it certainly isn’t for their country or anyone else’s. So to be fair... “we” aren’t liberating anyone. Our government has went rouge. They are taking all of us down, not only other countries. So I hope you realize that it’s not as you are made to believe about us either. We are all in this mess together.

As a US army ranger and combat veteran, I commend you on your kit and patriotism! A few things we always carried in field the though, duct tape and stainless steel wire. Duct tape is the Ranger God's gift to combat and survival. You will be sruprised what you can do with a good bit of wire, from snaring dinner to weapons and vehicle repair to improvised anti personnel devices.
I’m American, I’ve always said Freedom isn’t Free! But when it hits this close to home I take it not so well. If there was any way I could take your place I would with joy! Your still young enough to make a difference, my time has passed.
Mad respect for what you're doing. Coming from a fellow leftie! Same happens in Poland and the Baltics as we speak. Finland has always had it's militia. I think this is the way to deter pootin from attacking more countries. As you understand , a partisan rig and loadout differs from a 3 or 5 day mission loadout. I like your patrol-bag , though it is a bit limited in size for overnight patrols. I love my Vorn lynx 12-20 litre backpack. it carries my rifle in a genious quick-release pocket. Rifle ready in 2 seconds. I carry my shotgun in a sling like yours. A main battle rifle is heavy, and made for a fighting style you try to avoid. And if you don't get a really good one, you would still need your .06' for that distance kill. If you could get a H&K in 308, or a FN-FNAR, or a accurized AR-10, you got your sniper rifle. If not, you're better off with a .30-06 and a maybe exchange the shotgun for a pistol caliber carabine in the same caliber as your sidearm. That's the Norvegian partisan setup from WW2. (Mauser, Stengun and sidearm. Short and light AR15 or AK74 variant could make do, but then you must carry 3 types of ammo... I would try to get a magazine fed rifle and some spare mags. I got a leftie Tikka M65, original 5 round mag , and aftermarket 7 round mags. These are plentiful in Scandinavia, and cheap. (500€) Magazine price is a killer though.. I would ditch the raincoat and go with a army poncho instead. covers your pack too, and can be made into a shelter. Try putting all your shotgun shells on your chestrig pointing the same way. When you have emptied the right side, you should be able to get the shells from the loops on the left using your right hand and same technique. Training will tell. And as others have pointed out, don't mark positions on the map, use a overlay, or write positions in a caesarian cipher or similar. Try to get a rangefinder. That .30-06 is good to 800 meter , but you need to know the range. Plastic zip-ties and electrical tape! A mini salt and pepper shaker. To deserve peace, prepare for war!
Salute from Finland. I am confident you will stand your ground and destroy invaders should they come. High spirits are the foundation of homeland defense as history has shown for Finland, Ukraine and Georgia. What you will need is a good body armor and NIR compliant combat uniforms.

Forgive me, as I am not familar with the Georgia Constitution or the rights it grants its citizens. Nevertheless, I see another capable warrior using the right to bear arms. Ready to defend his liberty, and property from any enemy trying to take it or cause you harm. Good bless what you're doing and what you stand for. I hope too that both you and myself will not have to get involved in this conflict, but if we do we will be ready! Stay safe and free brother, Greetings from New Jersey, USA.
"Who wants to go to war with dirty ass?" Best line from any prepper info video I've ever heard. Nice work, I learned a lot. Respect from the Philippines, we have a similar situation because of our aggressive neighbor.

I'm very glad I live in a country where war isn't at my doorstep and that I know the importance of actual freedom and there is no compromise to that.

Hey brother. Just a side note for your combat ifak. If u put it closer to your center line you can reach it with both hands in case one arm is unusable. Also have the one on your person clearly marked. Generally in combat it's a buddy treating you with your ifak so the need to be able to find it themselves in case you're unable to communicate. Also if your in group its good practice for everyone to keep their ifaks in the same basic area to further quicken treatment. I'd also have one tourniquet out of the pack or pocket and either banded to your carrier or in your map pouch. Hope that helps and saves lives if it ever comes to that.
Saying hello from the US and your scoped 30.06 is better than gold. All I would add is a Mylar type emergency blanket or even a high percentage wool blanket to hide from thermal drones. Peace is always best, but conditions change fast.

First of all: I absolutely *love* that wool hat!! - It looks so warm, comfortable, and sturdy that I just want one ... that fits like that. Secondly, and more importantly, you do seem like a genuine, regular person in your presentation. That kept me involved long enough to get past the awesome hat, and you were still interesting. So interesting that I considered sending you a camouflage backpack that is, realistically, too large for my older body to ... fully utilize. I'll have to think about that for a bit though. Bravo! - Well done video. Really like the background of the shelter. P.S. With a 30-06 & a 12 GA, which are classics, I could see a 1911 (in .45ACP) as your pistol in the same picture. Although, a nice little 22LR could be a good choice for better reasons ... and I don't even know if those are options for you. 😶
Best wool hat is the OD Green Merino wool Magpul hat for $30. Very comfortable, better than the standard GI originals or copies. Always get Merino wool. Next best wool thing is Real Tree wool socks.
Put a few TAMPONS in your first aid bag. They don't take up much space but CLOSE GUNSHOT WOUNDS QUICKLY. I didn't need to try it out myself but learned that from a French Foreign Legion veteran here on the tube. His name is Thomas Gast and he served 17 years in the Legion (and 4 years for the German Paratroopers). Later on, worked 14 years as a private military contractor. Guy is still a beast with 60 years.

May the Good Lord watch over you all, and hopefully you can avoid the pain being inflicted upon Ukraine. If this should befall you, may you survive to tell your grandchildren about the defeat you helped to inflict upon the aggressors, and how they ran from your attacks and counterattacks.

The Finnish people are incredible. “The Russian people are our friends, the Russian government is not.” More true words have never been spoken. God bless you and the Finnish people
Love the .06 it's a great hard hitting cartridge. Keep a shovel to bury and hide stashes of ammo and food in case you ever have to leave. Use the shotgun in clearing buildings and mid range. Good luck to you sir. Much love from Texas
Great build. I would really encourage you to leave that cell phone at home though, and tell your friends to do the same. If this truly is designed to resist a powerful force like the Russian military, there are a lot of reasons you don’t want to be bringing cell phones to your hide sites. Wish you well in the days ahead.
A couple points of critique I noticed: Keep your main TQ exposed in a minimal, but sturdy pouch or retainer. If you go down alone and you have to open a pouch to gain access to your TQ then stop arterial bleeding, you're going to lose to that bleeding. There are tons of cheap TQ pouches out there that retain it, but allow for easy access. Also, store it high or open and visible so you and your buddies know exactly where it is. TQs save lives, but only if you can apply them in time. Not sure how all the cold weather gear affects their effectiveness, but its definitely something to look into for that environment. Next, move the radio pouch. You cant be effective in a prone position with a piece of black gear shoved into your stomach. Put it on your side, or at least to the side on your chest so you can lay prone with no inhibitions. Finally, paint your shiny. Shiny is the enemy of concealment. The outside of your survival kit, your canteen cup, and your chest mounted shells. Shove the shells all the way into the elastic so they don't give off a shiny profile, and paint the outside of your messkits. The orange on your mainpack isn't as bad, but if you can make it tactical, then do so. A comment below touched on your map. I can only agree to what @Alejandro Ayora said. OPSEC (Operational Security) is extremely important. Don't be the guy that gets all the other guys killed when the enemy figures out where everyone's shit is because you didn't police your map. The orces are pretty stupid, but they're not that stupid. One last thing, look into COMMSEC and signal footprints. Not sure what your background is or how much you know about radios, but when you key that radio or turn on that phone, the enemy can find you. Research that and know how to be effective in spite of it. Comm windows and minimal communication are essential. God bless you and I pray you never have to put these things into practice, but Fuck Russia.
Another good idea is to have 4 tourniquets one on each limb snugged but not tight secured maybe with a clothes pin so if you are hit all you do is tighten the strap and crank it down
@@americanmilitiaman88 I would say absolutely not. There is no way in hell that that's good advice. You don't need to carry four when you can carry one. You don't need to pre-apply them when you can have them stowed, but available. If your buddy goes down, then you use his equally readily available TQ to stop his bleeding. However, if it isn't readily available, then you need to use your own. There is no way in hell pre-applying a TQ will ever be a good idea. Keep them stowed and accessible. Carry one, maybe two. And don't sacrifice the durability by keeping them exposed and "wrapped around each limb." Unless that reply was bait, then gg.
Love the kit. If I may offer some constructive criticism, the Baofeng radio and especially the cellphone, are very easy to track. In conflict, I would abandon the cellphone altogether. You can use the Baofeng but understand that your communications will likely be intercepted and used against you. Best of luck defending your homeland.
One thing you could try getting is just remove the SIM card and get a mesh static system so you can use your cell phone with other people while having a really great encrypted set up. The baofang you might see people jamming you soon as they figure out your using it. But there’s not much of a better system you can have than a radio unfortunately .

I hope it never happens for real. 🙏🏻 Stay safe. I would upgrade to a tougher backpack. I have used the Teton Sports and they’re not too strong. It would fail on you if you have to use it for many days. Regarding the camp, you could use a camouflage pack cover. It’s an easy way to change the colors without changing the whole pack. Just a thought. Stay safe, and I hope your country never get invaded by the Russians. God bless you.
I have a “kidney belt” that I can put the hot hands in and wear around my waist for extreme cold at night or when staying still for long periods. It’s made from lightweight webbing and has two light pouches with Velcro fasteners. The two pouches are right next to the kidneys and the blood goes through the kidneys, keep blood warm and you stay warm. Also I wear sock liners with Marino wool socks. Loose layered clothing is the best. I too would rather sit and praise God for blessings and have a good meal and fellowship than to fight and kill.
So far so good,easy and practical.BUT one point relocate your first aid kit to a different location where you could reach easy with both hands,and putt your TQ in front of you in a separate easy access pouch.if you need it,you don't have time to mess around with your first aid pouch trying to open the zipper.
Great presentation! Prepared for peace, ready for war. I don't know if it is available to you in Georgia as surplus but the Dutch have a large nylon DPM pattern back pack cover that would match your smock very well. I like the Soviet butter dish as a mess kit. I'll have to look for one now.

I’m praying that it doesn’t come to that for y’all. . Like I told Vadim on his video it’s a shame the politicians and the bureaucrats aren’t the ones doing the fighting instead of the citizens . Stay safe
I was in the second battle of Fallujah, the Marines in the first battle about had Fallujah secured when a political Paul Bremmer said he was going to negotiate with the insurgents holding the town. Well for 8 months they "talked" basically he gave them 8 months to fortify and set up weapon caches and booby trap everything, and we had to go in. We lost 31 Marines there, a 1/3 of my platoon had been wounded, and the ones of us that served there carry those memories daily. Paul Bremmer should have been there with us so he could see the result of his 8 months of "talking". Proud of my Marines and what we accomplished, but I agree 100%, they should be there with us, then they wouldn't throw human lives around so freely
@@hatfieldmccoy0311 I have no use for bureaucrats or most politicians for that matter. Thank you for your service. Damn shame the politicians don’t fight the battles they start and oversee. Put them all in the colosseum…
I would consider moving the radio more on the side, as a sniper you would lay a lot and it will at the very least disturb you a lot. Baofengs are also not very robust, so you could break it when you need to hit the ground and there is for example a stone under you. I wish you and your group all the best, my country also has a border with Russia so similar preparations are ongoing. I hope we won't need them!
Nick, I will pray long and hard for you , your fellow countrymen and those you love on a daily basis. I know what you are going through. I served in the US Marines during the Vietnam era. When I was a young child, my parents and I left Czechoslovakia during the Russian takeover. They wanted to kill my parents and rape my mother. We were in displaced persons camps in Germany and left Europe by way of the US Army. We became naturalized citizens here. All Slavic people are brothers and sisters who simply want peace but the Russian government will not allow it.The places it has sent it's military are only the beginning, it wants to dominate all Slavic countries and regions as well as other nations as well. The Russian government has failed to remember that communism doesn't work as they embrace communist China, which also shares in the desires to dominate. It makes me think that the Russian government has become puppets of China. This is a danger in their alliance. The entire world is in trouble if this is the case. China is pouring money and resources into Africa and South America creating highly volatile and dangerous situations for neighboring countries. It is imperative that Georgians defeat the Russians along with other threatened Slavic countries. Nick you are a brave man, survivalist, bushcrafter, outdoorsman and warrior. I just wished that some of these commentors and viewers would send you money to help you. I am praying about sending money to you, maybe through patreon. I am talking about this tomorrow with my wife, to see what we can do. I will be looking at all my options and you don't have to send me anything, if I choose to send you money. You don't need to worry about such things because you need to stay focused on the war in your area. I would just like to know how you are doing and to get a progress report occasionally. You take good care of yourself and I will try to figure out if I can send you something. God bless you and be with you and keep you safe my brother ! Semper Fidelis ! (Always Faithful) is the meaning. It is the Marine motto.
I'm currently trying to save up to buy a pistol and body armor , if you can contribute to that , it would really make a difference to me. Thanks for sharing your experience and thanks for watching Nick
@@HFSurvivalSchool best sidearm or pistol would be a revolver. Yes they aren't as fast as most semiauto pistols, but more reliable and less prone to jams, and you don't have to worry about magazines.
@Kašpar Johan a sidearm's weight vs another rifle is a huge difference. A simple revolver can weigh as little as 2lbs, and depending on the ammo type, he could carry 500 rnds of .22lr or even 200 rnds in calibers up to .44Mag. A basic no fancy optics and gaer AK platform rifle is 9.5lbs by itself, add in the additional weight of roughly 2 lbs per loaded AK magazine, he would max carry 10 AK mags. Personally a revolver seems more useful in conjunction with the hunting rifle, and shotgun, less hassle and weight to carry.
@@middknightdream1577 except for the fact that you are talking about face to face combat with pistols. I've never fought in a war. At my age not likely i ever will unless it comes to my door. Pistols are for the oh shit time when all else has been expended and it's your last resort. I'd much rather take shelter and fire rounds from 30 round magazine than to have to look into the eyes of my enemy.
Sure they get rid of the map get use to it . Hide grids coordinates in note book some simple to the person code. Memorize most important ones. Wouldn't just program in GPS.
Very good and interesting video sir, we’re praying for your safety and that you’ll never have to use those skills and tools. As far as the color concern of your bag. It can be fixed when a can of spray paint. Look at all the picture of the gear guys were carrying in the early days of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. They spray painted everything rifles, web gear, whatever it was it most likely was spray painted.
This is an epic video and very thought provoking. It's great to see you have it planned out and there is resistance ready. If you need your backpack to blend in, an easy and cheap option would be to get a camouflage waterproof cover for it but the negative to that option is you lose the ease of access to the backpack. Also I'm curious, how come you don't have an AK?
I'm not a soldier and not trying to look tacticool , I'm a hunter , I move my way up , started at 12 years with single barrel shotgun , at 18 got a double barrel shotgun, at 23 got a pump action shotgun for hiking and survival , at 25 got a long range hunting rifle , all of this are firearms that I use at least monthly or weekly , I really want an AK but its more of a luxury item then a daily necessity , when I will have extra funds I will buy it without a doubt , if a war starts they will be handing out full autos though. Thanks for watching Nick
@@HFSurvivalSchool To me that 30-06 is ay better than one that waste ammo . it only TAKES one shot not 500 rounds of hitting nothing. I have 270 ,30-06 , a 40 hp 10shot, a 10 shot 22 mag- & long hand gun . But I to also a avid hunter to feed family and self so I go to the range with hand guns to keep me in shape for close range . But for hunting , trapping. Wealso are preparing for the worst hoping it never comes. Stay safe GOD bless you.
@@patriciahibbert6139 Have you ever trained combat? It sure doesn't sound like it. Now I'm not trying to sound superior, it's just that in combat taking the kind of shots you do when hunting is very dangerous. The 30-06 would be great if one can remain stealthy, pop one guy and then bugger off. But an AK would be more versatile than a 12ga as a combat weapon if you get sticky. That said. A 12ga is a lot better than nothing and if skillfully deployed it can be a great ambush weapon aswell.
Interesting. A few thoughts, just based on my study of History: 1. Stay light. The large axe is overkill. Replace it with much more food and the smallest hatchet or large knife that will do the job. 2. Carry way more food. You should be stocking up on food to last you months, and you should be carrying enough to keep you going for many days in the field. 3. A space blanket, both for survival purposes and to hide from IR, which will be a big deal. 4. Get as much training as you possibly can. Going to war is no joke, and poorly trained partisans will be slaughtered if they don't really, really know what they're doing. Focus on intelligence, logistics, and communication and cooperation with larger forces. 5. Don't get in the way of regular troops, and if at all possible, try to cooperate with the main army or government, or whatever remains of it. I imagine such an offer will be rejected until the situation gets desperate. But in either case, don't get in the way, and I stress again, focus on intelligence and logistics. 6. Learn as much as you can, and take advice from people who have served in the military, especially those who have served in higher command roles and logistics or intelligence. They'll be able to offer you far, far better advice than I can or any other keyboard warrior on the internet.
A smaller Axe means you'd have to work harder when cutting firewood and shelters. His axe is not big, probably less than 2lb head, it's high carbon steel and can do everything a knife can and more. He only needs more food if his forest doesn't have much available. I'm an indigenous man and can live in my own backyard without carrying any food. This is his backyard and his family has been there for generations. I think this man did very well for himself. The only thing I'd recommend is a slingshot for birds and small game. A slingshot helps conserve ammo as well as hunt without noise. Also eat every edible part of anything you catch. Pluck birds instead of skinning, eat the eyes and brains (these are high in fat) as well a organ meat. Some people think eating these parts are gross but I believe throwing away edible parts of an animal is truly gross and incredibly wastefull. Good luck my friend and stay safe.
@@billygauthier9512 I'd feed what you said people think is gross to eat to my Dog because he has to eat also. I'd hate to be in that Situation. I hope we USA never gets invaded. I really feel sorry for this Man. Maby he will contact me so I can send him some Super Special 12 Gauge Rounds. This will be like I did something to help him and the Ukrainian People.
Mr DuPont he probably didn't have a Hatchet but will defently need that small Axe. As far as the Emergency Space Blanket, it will get you killed being that it's Shiny and bright silver not Camouflage or even Earth Color. That's good about what you said with staying out of the way. Unless to get organized into Guerrilla type Warfare Teams and get Supplies or Weapons & Ammo. You say some good things Mr DuPont for being an Armchair Warrior.

I can call out the wrongdoings of both sides, you cant
one little note regarding the info on your map, try to carry the map untouched and instead get a sheet of transparent acetate to write the info on there. only you should know exactly where to put the acetate sheet so it overlays on top of the map. that way you wont compromise your other shelters if the map gets captured.
godspeed man
That is a great idea! I would never have thought of that...thank you so much for sharing.
wow thats intense man great thinking
Also, be aware that anything that can transmit (send) a signal can be tracked (traced) (triangulated) back to your current location. So GPS, radios, internet, cellphones etc. can compromise your positions. But if you are going to use them, then you must maintain strict radio silence until an actual enemy contact takes place. Because the enemy would already know the general vicinity of where you are already when enemy contact is made.
I personally wouldn't take any two way radio's, of course you lose the communication factor, but it allows your team to be ghosts. If you do opt to use radios etc. then after you leave the area of enemy contact, you must go back to radio silence.
Most communication issues can be resolved through the initial, training, orders and rehearsals prior to any attack or ambush.
So if you have any electronic devices that ONLY receive signals. Then you have nothing to worry about. Just make sure to keep the volume down or use head phones.
If you use any type of electronic devices that can SEND signals. Then these signals can be captured, triangulated and your location can be compromised. I think most people could figure out what would happen next.
@@KiwiBushcraftAndSurvival I don't think GPS receivers transmit signals.
@@stupedcraig Yup some do, like the Garmin Rhino 750 2-Way Radio/GPS. They transmit when you talk through them to other users and I believe they can also transmit your GPS location to other Garmin Rhino's. All of these could be intercepted.

I’m in the Army. I recommend adding a small shovel to your kit. They can be used for many things and help build shelter or foxholes. Also, a durable fixed blade knife. I’d add more food in your pack, as well as some gun oil and rags to wipe your weapons down. Make sure you have plenty of socks and undergarments, I also recommend some good quality boots, at least 2 pairs. Your feet are your lifeline. 2-3 changes of durable clothes. Along with that, foot powder and much more baby wipes. That’ll be your shower for however long you’re out there for. Also a small inflatable camping pillow is nice.

This is a terrifying concept. I hope things go in a manner where you don't need to bug out. These past few years have taught me I need to train, learn, and practice. I wish you the best, brother.
It’s not just a concept. Russia invaded Georgia once already back in 2008 and still occupied parts of the country.
I don't know how war would develop in Finland, Baltic States, Poland or Georgia(well we saw how that one went) where hills and forests are everywhere you go, but here in Ukraine our entire partisan movement is concentrated in the occupied cities. Especially in those with main transportation knots. Think about it: if your enemy is borderline "special education" but has areal reconnaissance and 20k artillery shells to waste per day would you risk sticking out like a sore thumb in the forest or mountains or just going "grey" in the city, with all comforts available to you and also your targets being at your hand's reach.
You can't do much from the forest or mountains, that's what i'm getting at. Not with modern tech in hands of your enemy. You might kill 10 000 russians, but what would it change for their high command? Exactly zero. We killed and disabled 90k they still don't care. You need to destroy their logistics, supplies and collaborators so their advance would halt. And you can do that only from behind the enemy line. That means looking and acting as inconspicuous as possible, playing along, gaining their trust.
But that's just me, a random Ukrainian.

I would recommend a larger knife such as a becker bk 2 or bk 9. They are full tang and built to take punishment. Also God forbid it comes down to war fare, a large knife has proven to be a great asset in battle where CQC is a factor. I recommend the becker knives because they are very affordable and as a edged weapons instructor I feel they meet both bushcraft, urban survival and close quarter combat needs. Just something to consider. Praying for you brother be safe.

As someone who's done a lot of camping, especially in colder weather, one thing I would suggest you add to your sleep system is a mattress or sleeping pad of some sort. Even the best sleeping bags can't protect you from the cold ground because of how the fill on the ground side of the sleeping bag gets compressed when laying on it. A good sleeping pad can give greater comfort, which leads to a better sleep and a better rested fighter.
Very true. You can add a paracord hammock which will get you off the ground. If you use 90 or 100 percent wool blanket and wrap up like a taco you stay pretty warm especially if you can't make a fire for security reasons. If you have a smaller blanket besides your wool blanket like a blanket shard, you can pit it inside the hammock and let it drape over rather edge so that it blocks convection.
@@bayoubushcraftandsurvival8842 I've tried hammocks but can't seem to get comfortable in one. I can see the advantage of a hammock in certain environments and terrain, like in warmer climates and the bayou for example, but that's rarely my case as I'm in the Pacific Northwest. I've found that in cold weather I still need some form of insulation - like a blanket as you've suggested - or with a sleeping pad.
@@dancancade7101 good point. Not living in hard winter conditions, I don't have the experience you and others might have in that regard. A good sleeping pad is not that heavy and would be beneficial.
@@bayoubushcraftandsurvival8842 trust me...when it's 3 a.m. & you're in your sleeping bag with your teeth chattering & you're shivering all over...a ground pad would be worth a fortune to you.
No matter how good the bag is the ground leeches the heat from your body unless you out something in between it & you.
@@jefflockaby702 Leaves, straw, even torn up newspaper make a really good ground cover. My son and I did a true winter survival camp last winter. 5⁰ F highs for 3 days. No high dollar sleeping bags or tents, just tarps, wool blankets, and what we could carry. I am not going to lie and say that it was comfortable, but we survived.
If you have locations marked directly on your map that doesn't end well if it's lost, someone is captured or killed and searched. Have some sort of simple code masking coordinates and use an overlay or a ziploc to do any marking on the map so the map itself is clean and everything else not encrypted can be destroyed.
Another easy way if you're doing an overlay is to make sure it's not the same size as the map but offset and ybut offset and use a couple of of major features on the map app to align it. This makes it difficult for someone else to understand your overlay. Good hunting
really loved that idea of the plastic overlay, even just for regular use!
So a good way to secure this is to have a bottom part of that ziplock sealed off from the rest of it with waterproof matches you strike one of the matches and it will ignite the overlay. Quick way to instantly deny useful Intel

Great video, thank you for sharing. If I may make a suggestion for items to enhance your "pack". This is what I have done for my 'grab-n-go' bag: Take large diameter plastic beverage straws, pinch off one end with needle nosed pliers then melt that end and quickly pinch the end until it cools and seals (about 10 to 20 seconds). Then, fill the straw with what you need most (water tight). Then seal the open end in the same manner. This is what I put in my straws: spaghetti, rice, salt, sugar, coffee, creamer, cocoa mix, matches and striker, cotton balls (soaked in vaseline), small beans, dry spices, sewing needles and thread and assorted other items. These straws take up very little space and you can store enough food for at least one day, to supplement other food items in your backpack. I am not the originator of this technique, I learned it from a mountain game hunter years ago and share it with anyone that wants to learn. Sincerely hope you never have to defend your homeland like Ukraine is doing now.
Noticed some people have mentioned camouflaging your large bag. That is the only thing in this video that stands out to me especially the neon orange accents on it. A cheap option would be to buy an assortment of green and brown spray paint cans that match the forest colors and just spray paint it. That’s what we do in the military as a quick camouflage option as we always have Army issued spray cans lying around. Proud that y’all are taking your freedom and preparing so seriously being that I’m an American 🇺🇸
Also another tip move the tourniquet to your chest rig on your right side right next to the shotgun shell holder and above the knife. You can use rubber bands and loop them through the Molle loops and put the tourniquet through the rubber bands that way it’s secure and can be easily pulled off. If I could send pictures I’d show how we set that up on our plate carriers.
Or just use a black marker and cancel the orange part at least.
I'm glad you're prepared for the worst, may you never NEED any of that. Thank you for sharing! Good luck to you and yours.

So I hope you realize that it’s not as you are made to believe about us either. We are all in this mess together.
I always put a cap or some Electrical Tape on the end of my barrel to keep things from getting into it. Good luck and stay strong.

You don't need a camo backpack, just get a $5 elastic camo rain cover for it.
Quick tip. You can wrap the tarp around your bag in order to camouflage it and secure it with elastic cord/ bungie cord or other rope/cord.
I use small tent rain fly it has 4 hooks 2
Georgia has a very proud and rich history. Keep your independence andd culture alive at all costs my friend. Much love and respect from America!
I was a Marine Infantryman from 1999 to 2010. Did multiple deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan, from one warrior to another, I hate you will see the things I have seen, but give them hell brother. I am hoping to make my way over to help with the fight. Stay safe my brother
Thank you !

Where do i find good weapons? I need to be ready for war
@@zyskor8828 Depends on where you are, but if you are in America the correct answer is that you don't need to prepare for war.
@@TheBackslash1 Always be prepared for the worst to be a possibility at all times. Anything can happen, and if it did, the ones ignoring to do so and be prepared will be the first ones smoked
This guy is awesome. I live in the US and there are alot of people who are "ready for and invasion" and don't have a tenth of the practical knowledge or set up as this guy. May God grant your country victory
Americas been compromised their won’t be an invasion until after we’re burning to the ground with our satanic politicians
It's more likely that the United States will invade somewhere again.
great bag setup very practical. I like the idea of having a smaller bag packed so you can switch when needed 🙌🏻 and I was thinking about getting an axe but wasn’t sure if a full size would fit but you showed me it does so I’m definitely getting one now. Thanks for making this video it has given me some good ideas for building my INCH/bug out bag. Stay safe and good luck from 🇬🇧 to 🇬🇪 🇺🇦
Thank you very much , im happy to hear that you like it.
You can get a tomahawk like the Cold Steel Trail Hawk if you don't want to carry a full weight axe.

A few things we always carried in field the though, duct tape and stainless steel wire. Duct tape is the Ranger God's gift to combat and survival. You will be sruprised what you can do with a good bit of wire, from snaring dinner to weapons and vehicle repair to improvised anti personnel devices.

Great video brother. You have our support. The media does not reflect the ideas of the average American citizen
Thank you very much !
Mad respect for what you're doing. Coming from a fellow leftie! Same happens in Poland and the Baltics as we speak. Finland has always had it's militia. I think this is the way to deter pootin from attacking more countries.
As you understand , a partisan rig and loadout differs from a 3 or 5 day mission loadout. I like your patrol-bag , though it is a bit limited in size for overnight patrols. I love my Vorn lynx 12-20 litre backpack. it carries my rifle in a genious quick-release pocket. Rifle ready in 2 seconds. I carry my shotgun in a sling like yours.
A main battle rifle is heavy, and made for a fighting style you try to avoid. And if you don't get a really good one, you would still need your .06' for that distance kill. If you could get a H&K in 308, or a FN-FNAR, or a accurized AR-10, you got your sniper rifle. If not, you're better off with a .30-06 and a maybe exchange the shotgun for a pistol caliber carabine in the same caliber as your sidearm. That's the Norvegian partisan setup from WW2. (Mauser, Stengun and sidearm. Short and light AR15 or AK74 variant could make do, but then you must carry 3 types of ammo...
I would try to get a magazine fed rifle and some spare mags. I got a leftie Tikka M65, original 5 round mag , and aftermarket 7 round mags. These are plentiful in Scandinavia, and cheap. (500€) Magazine price is a killer though..
I would ditch the raincoat and go with a army poncho instead. covers your pack too, and can be made into a shelter.
Try putting all your shotgun shells on your chestrig pointing the same way. When you have emptied the right side, you should be able to get the shells from the loops on the left using your right hand and same technique. Training will tell.
And as others have pointed out, don't mark positions on the map, use a overlay, or write positions in a caesarian cipher or similar.
Try to get a rangefinder. That .30-06 is good to 800 meter , but you need to know the range.
Plastic zip-ties and electrical tape!
A mini salt and pepper shaker.
To deserve peace, prepare for war!
Salute from Finland. I am confident you will stand your ground and destroy invaders should they come. High spirits are the foundation of homeland defense as history has shown for Finland, Ukraine and Georgia. What you will need is a good body armor and NIR compliant combat uniforms.
Need a pouch on the front for those shells. They sitck out like a sore thumb, shiny brads, blue and red hulks. Your literary putting a target in the center of your chest. Looking good, stay safe
You have my respect brother,as a fellow patriot myself albeit from a different country I still have MAJOR respect for a man who is willing to put his life in danger for his country and loved ones. Stay safe, stay vigilant
Good luck from a Vietnam Veteran ! I will pray for you and all the Ukraine People !
🤣
Everything will be fine with the Ukrainian people when the Russian army liberates this territory from the Nazis, as it was in 1944.
Forgive me, as I am not familar with the Georgia Constitution or the rights it grants its citizens. Nevertheless, I see another capable warrior using the right to bear arms. Ready to defend his liberty, and property from any enemy trying to take it or cause you harm. Good bless what you're doing and what you stand for. I hope too that both you and myself will not have to get involved in this conflict, but if we do we will be ready!

"Who wants to go to war with dirty ass?" Best line from any prepper info video I've ever heard. Nice work, I learned a lot. Respect from the Philippines, we have a similar situation because of our aggressive neighbor.
As an American I shall be viewing peoples kit from actual war zones or places that have had real life catastrophes. Georgia as well and many of us are aware of what happened in Georgia nearly a decade ago. Nice rig. Keep the faith man. " Semper Fidelis."
I'm very glad I live in a country where war isn't at my doorstep and that I know the importance of actual freedom and there is no compromise to that. I hate the thought of dying and losing everything I have but I would go to war so my son doesn't have to. I have the most respect for the innocent people and children caught in the crossfire and for the men fighting who have alot to lose..
God bless you and all the Patriot freedom fighters Nick. I agree, pray for peace but prepare for war. In America our biggest concern is preserving our God given and constitutional rights.

He may have been an ass but he wasn't a psychotic bloodthirsty dictator.

Hey brother. Just a side note for your combat ifak. If u put it closer to your center line you can reach it with both hands in case one arm is unusable. Also have the one on your person clearly marked. Generally in combat it's a buddy treating you with your ifak so the need to be able to find it themselves in case you're unable to communicate. Also if your in group its good practice for everyone to keep their ifaks in the same basic area to further quicken treatment. I'd also have one tourniquet out of the pack or pocket and either banded to your carrier or in your map pouch. Hope that helps and saves lives if it ever comes to that.
Saying hello from the US and your scoped 30.06 is better than gold. All I would add is a Mylar type emergency blanket or even a high percentage wool blanket to hide from thermal drones. Peace is always best, but conditions change fast.

First of all: I absolutely *love* that wool hat!! - It looks so warm, comfortable, and sturdy that I just want one ... that fits like that.
Secondly, and more importantly, you do seem like a genuine, regular person in your presentation. That kept me involved long enough to get past the awesome hat, and you were still interesting. So interesting that I considered sending you a camouflage backpack that is, realistically, too large for my older body to ... fully utilize. I'll have to think about that for a bit though.
Bravo! - Well done video. Really like the background of the shelter.
P.S.
With a 30-06 & a 12 GA, which are classics, I could see a 1911 (in .45ACP) as your pistol in the same picture. Although, a nice little 22LR could be a good choice for better reasons ... and I don't even know if those are options for you. 😶
My dream pistol is a 1911 colt.22 that is sold here , I love that thing so much...
Thanks for watching and for your thoughts
Best wool hat is the OD Green Merino wool Magpul hat for $30. Very comfortable, better than the standard GI originals or copies. Always get Merino wool. Next best wool thing is Real Tree wool socks.
I want one of those hats, too!!! How can I get one??
@@dannycurtis2591

Put a few TAMPONS in your first aid bag. They don't take up much space but CLOSE GUNSHOT WOUNDS QUICKLY. I didn't need to try it out myself but learned that from a French Foreign Legion veteran here on the tube. His name is Thomas Gast and he served 17 years in the Legion (and 4 years for the German Paratroopers). Later on, worked 14 years as a private military contractor. Guy is still a beast with 60 years. He has some English clips as well.
not True.
You should pack gun wounds with gauze
Lol no get an actual first aid kit.
@@baneofbanes The guy served 21 years in the military and took part in countless operations. That's confirmed with countless reports about him. I'd do what he says.
@@elg0rdo351 yah I don’t give a shit. I’d rather have actual medical supplies.
Hang in there Brother some of my buddies have already left to help out in Ukraine and I'll be leaving as soon as I get some personal stuff wrapped up. I'm also waiting for extra supplies and equipment to arrive to take with me. Stay safe and keep your powder dry.

Great overall kit and thought process behind everything too.
May God bless georgia, may you keep your culture and land sovereignty.
At first i thought he had a .410, the shells on his chest rig looked awfully skinny but that may also be due to them not being viewable up close and i have an old iphone 6s w small screen.

@@grumpyolesilverback7211 Covers the basics - long rang and close range. And, assuming he had some slugs, even mid range.

Love the .06 it's a great hard hitting cartridge. Keep a shovel to bury and hide stashes of ammo and food in case you ever have to leave. Use the shotgun in clearing buildings and mid range. Good luck to you sir. Much love from Texas
A .06 is a hell of a round, just ask any German, Italian, or Japanese soldier.
God Bless .. most of the citizens here in the USA are praying for you ❤️🙏
Thank you
Freedom isn't given. It is taken.
I appreciate that the arms you're using are not self loading rifles or a combat pistol. True partisan fashion

Anything louder than a .22 for gathering food is just like shooting up a flare and waving a red flag for anyone nearby.
Wishing u the best! I'm very proud of your skills that your not only prepared for but ready for action
Great build. I would really encourage you to leave that cell phone at home though, and tell your friends to do the same. If this truly is designed to resist a powerful force like the Russian military, there are a lot of reasons you don’t want to be bringing cell phones to your hide sites. Wish you well in the days ahead.
God speed to you sir from USA. Be ungovernable.
God bless you in these hard times. May the odds be on your side.
A couple points of critique I noticed: Keep your main TQ exposed in a minimal, but sturdy pouch or retainer. If you go down alone and you have to open a pouch to gain access to your TQ then stop arterial bleeding, you're going to lose to that bleeding. There are tons of cheap TQ pouches out there that retain it, but allow for easy access. Also, store it high or open and visible so you and your buddies know exactly where it is. TQs save lives, but only if you can apply them in time. Not sure how all the cold weather gear affects their effectiveness, but its definitely something to look into for that environment. Next, move the radio pouch. You cant be effective in a prone position with a piece of black gear shoved into your stomach. Put it on your side, or at least to the side on your chest so you can lay prone with no inhibitions. Finally, paint your shiny. Shiny is the enemy of concealment. The outside of your survival kit, your canteen cup, and your chest mounted shells. Shove the shells all the way into the elastic so they don't give off a shiny profile, and paint the outside of your messkits. The orange on your mainpack isn't as bad, but if you can make it tactical, then do so. A comment below touched on your map. I can only agree to what @Alejandro Ayora said. OPSEC (Operational Security) is extremely important. Don't be the guy that gets all the other guys killed when the enemy figures out where everyone's shit is because you didn't police your map. The orces are pretty stupid, but they're not that stupid. One last thing, look into COMMSEC and signal footprints. Not sure what your background is or how much you know about radios, but when you key that radio or turn on that phone, the enemy can find you. Research that and know how to be effective in spite of it. Comm windows and minimal communication are essential. God bless you and I pray you never have to put these things into practice, but Fuck Russia.
Another good idea is to have 4 tourniquets one on each limb snugged but not tight secured maybe with a clothes pin so if you are hit all you do is tighten the strap and crank it down
@@americanmilitiaman88 I would say absolutely not. There is no way in hell that that's good advice. You don't need to carry four when you can carry one. You don't need to pre-apply them when you can have them stowed, but available. If your buddy goes down, then you use his equally readily available TQ to stop his bleeding. However, if it isn't readily available, then you need to use your own. There is no way in hell pre-applying a TQ will ever be a good idea. Keep them stowed and accessible. Carry one, maybe two. And don't sacrifice the durability by keeping them exposed and "wrapped around each limb." Unless that reply was bait, then gg.
Love the kit. If I may offer some constructive criticism, the Baofeng radio and especially the cellphone, are very easy to track. In conflict, I would abandon the cellphone altogether. You can use the Baofeng but understand that your communications will likely be intercepted and used against you. Best of luck defending your homeland.
One thing you could try getting is just remove the SIM card and get a mesh static system so you can use your cell phone with other people while having a really great encrypted set up. The baofang you might see people jamming you soon as they figure out your using it. But there’s not much of a better system you can have than a radio unfortunately .
I don’t know what to say but good luck nick im with you! We’re with you and all the Ukrainian people! I’ve been a fan of yours for years now I’m really sorry about what you guys and girls are having to go through but try and stay safe and strong

I would upgrade to a tougher backpack. I have used the Teton Sports and they’re not too strong. It would fail on you if you have to use it for many days.
Regarding the camp, you could use a camouflage pack cover. It’s an easy way to change the colors without changing the whole pack. Just a thought.
Stay safe, and I hope your country never get invaded by the Russians. God bless you.
How ur skills gonna work against Russian rocket system?
I have a “kidney belt” that I can put the hot hands in and wear around my waist for extreme cold at night or when staying still for long periods. It’s made from lightweight webbing and has two light pouches with Velcro fasteners. The two pouches are right next to the kidneys and the blood goes through the kidneys, keep blood warm and you stay warm. Also I wear sock liners with Marino wool socks. Loose layered clothing is the best. I too would rather sit and praise God for blessings and have a good meal and fellowship than to fight and kill.
So far so good,easy and practical.BUT one point relocate your first aid kit to a different location where you could reach easy with both hands,and putt your TQ in front of you in a separate easy access pouch.if you need it,you don't have time to mess around with your first aid pouch trying to open the zipper.
Great presentation! Prepared for peace, ready for war. I don't know if it is available to you in Georgia as surplus but the Dutch have a large nylon DPM pattern back pack cover that would match your smock very well. I like the Soviet butter dish as a mess kit. I'll have to look for one now.

Thank you very much my friend !
I was in the second battle of Fallujah, the Marines in the first battle about had Fallujah secured when a political Paul Bremmer said he was going to negotiate with the insurgents holding the town. Well for 8 months they "talked" basically he gave them 8 months to fortify and set up weapon caches and booby trap everything, and we had to go in. We lost 31 Marines there, a 1/3 of my platoon had been wounded, and the ones of us that served there carry those memories daily. Paul Bremmer should have been there with us so he could see the result of his 8 months of "talking". Proud of my Marines and what we accomplished, but I agree 100%, they should be there with us, then they wouldn't throw human lives around so freely

Good backpack bro... and good luck out there...
I would consider moving the radio more on the side, as a sniper you would lay a lot and it will at the very least disturb you a lot. Baofengs are also not very robust, so you could break it when you need to hit the ground and there is for example a stone under you.
I wish you and your group all the best, my country also has a border with Russia so similar preparations are ongoing. I hope we won't need them!
Thanks for watching
Nick, I will pray long and hard for you , your fellow countrymen and those you love on a daily basis. I know what you are going through. I served in the US Marines during the Vietnam era. When I was a young child, my parents and I left Czechoslovakia during the Russian takeover. They wanted to kill my parents and rape my mother. We were in displaced persons camps in Germany and left Europe by way of the US Army. We became naturalized citizens here. All Slavic people are brothers and sisters who simply want peace but the Russian government will not allow it.The places it has sent it's military are only the beginning, it wants to dominate all Slavic countries and regions as well as other nations as well. The Russian government has failed to remember that communism doesn't work as they embrace communist China, which also shares in the desires to dominate. It makes me think that the Russian government has become puppets of China. This is a danger in their alliance. The entire world is in trouble if this is the case. China is pouring money and resources into Africa and South America creating highly volatile and dangerous situations for neighboring countries. It is imperative that Georgians defeat the Russians along with other threatened Slavic countries. Nick you are a brave man, survivalist, bushcrafter, outdoorsman and warrior. I just wished that some of these commentors and viewers would send you money to help you. I am praying about sending money to you, maybe through patreon. I am talking about this tomorrow with my wife, to see what we can do. I will be looking at all my options and you don't have to send me anything, if I choose to send you money. You don't need to worry about such things because you need to stay focused on the war in your area. I would just like to know how you are doing and to get a progress report occasionally. You take good care of yourself and I will try to figure out if I can send you something. God bless you and be with you and keep you safe my brother ! Semper Fidelis ! (Always Faithful) is the meaning. It is the Marine motto.
I'm currently trying to save up to buy a pistol and body armor , if you can contribute to that , it would really make a difference to me.
Thanks for sharing your experience and thanks for watching

@@HFSurvivalSchool best sidearm or pistol would be a revolver. Yes they aren't as fast as most semiauto pistols, but more reliable and less prone to jams, and you don't have to worry about magazines.
@Kašpar Johan a sidearm's weight vs another rifle is a huge difference. A simple revolver can weigh as little as 2lbs, and depending on the ammo type, he could carry 500 rnds of .22lr or even 200 rnds in calibers up to .44Mag. A basic no fancy optics and gaer AK platform rifle is 9.5lbs by itself, add in the additional weight of roughly 2 lbs per loaded AK magazine, he would max carry 10 AK mags. Personally a revolver seems more useful in conjunction with the hunting rifle, and shotgun, less hassle and weight to carry.
@@middknightdream1577 except for the fact that you are talking about face to face combat with pistols. I've never fought in a war. At my age not likely i ever will unless it comes to my door. Pistols are for the oh shit time when all else has been expended and it's your last resort. I'd much rather take shelter and fire rounds from 30 round magazine than to have to look into the eyes of my enemy.
Just a thought, if one of your crew get captured or killed with a map marking your locations that could be the end of the rest of you.
Sure they get rid of the map get use to it . Hide grids coordinates in note book some simple to the person code. Memorize most important ones. Wouldn't just program in GPS.
Very good and interesting video sir, we’re praying for your safety and that you’ll never have to use those skills and tools. As far as the color concern of your bag. It can be fixed when a can of spray paint. Look at all the picture of the gear guys were carrying in the early days of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. They spray painted everything rifles, web gear, whatever it was it most likely was spray painted.
Thanks for watching !
And some stencils, either natural (leaves etc), man made (your own)...or perhaps purchased online, loads of interesting patterns available
Yeah that bag color isn't the biggest problem. it's relatively minor.
With all necessities loaded up how much does your pack weigh?

May gracious God be your guiding star. May God give your country freedom.
This is an epic video and very thought provoking. It's great to see you have it planned out and there is resistance ready.
If you need your backpack to blend in, an easy and cheap option would be to get a camouflage waterproof cover for it but the negative to that option is you lose the ease of access to the backpack.
Also I'm curious, how come you don't have an AK?
I'm not a soldier and not trying to look tacticool , I'm a hunter , I move my way up , started at 12 years with single barrel shotgun , at 18 got a double barrel shotgun, at 23 got a pump action shotgun for hiking and survival , at 25 got a long range hunting rifle , all of this are firearms that I use at least monthly or weekly , I really want an AK but its more of a luxury item then a daily necessity , when I will have extra funds I will buy it without a doubt , if a war starts they will be handing out full autos though.
Thanks for watching

I'd take an 30-06 bolt gun over an AK any day... if it gets that bad cap a commie in the head with your 30-06 and take his AK and all his gear...
@@HFSurvivalSchool To me that 30-06 is ay better than one that waste ammo . it only TAKES one shot not 500 rounds of hitting nothing. I have 270 ,30-06 , a 40 hp 10shot, a 10 shot 22 mag- & long hand gun . But I to also a avid hunter to feed family and self so I go to the range with hand guns to keep me in shape for close range . But for hunting , trapping. Wealso are preparing for the worst hoping it never comes. Stay safe GOD bless you.
@@patriciahibbert6139 Have you ever trained combat? It sure doesn't sound like it. Now I'm not trying to sound superior, it's just that in combat taking the kind of shots you do when hunting is very dangerous.
The 30-06 would be great if one can remain stealthy, pop one guy and then bugger off. But an AK would be more versatile than a 12ga as a combat weapon if you get sticky.
That said. A 12ga is a lot better than nothing and if skillfully deployed it can be a great ambush weapon aswell.
@@ambjornborjesson5481 Partisan warfare is all about taking one pop and disappearing.
Interesting. A few thoughts, just based on my study of History:
1. Stay light. The large axe is overkill. Replace it with much more food and the smallest hatchet or large knife that will do the job.
2. Carry way more food. You should be stocking up on food to last you months, and you should be carrying enough to keep you going for many days in the field.
3. A space blanket, both for survival purposes and to hide from IR, which will be a big deal.
4. Get as much training as you possibly can. Going to war is no joke, and poorly trained partisans will be slaughtered if they don't really, really know what they're doing. Focus on intelligence, logistics, and communication and cooperation with larger forces.
5. Don't get in the way of regular troops, and if at all possible, try to cooperate with the main army or government, or whatever remains of it. I imagine such an offer will be rejected until the situation gets desperate. But in either case, don't get in the way, and I stress again, focus on intelligence and logistics.
6. Learn as much as you can, and take advice from people who have served in the military, especially those who have served in higher command roles and logistics or intelligence. They'll be able to offer you far, far better advice than I can or any other keyboard warrior on the internet.
We have many friends who served , had been in wars and are hardened men.
Thanks for your advices and thanks for watching

A smaller Axe means you'd have to work harder when cutting firewood and shelters. His axe is not big, probably less than 2lb head, it's high carbon steel and can do everything a knife can and more. He only needs more food if his forest doesn't have much available. I'm an indigenous man and can live in my own backyard without carrying any food. This is his backyard and his family has been there for generations. I think this man did very well for himself. The only thing I'd recommend is a slingshot for birds and small game. A slingshot helps conserve ammo as well as hunt without noise. Also eat every edible part of anything you catch. Pluck birds instead of skinning, eat the eyes and brains (these are high in fat) as well a organ meat. Some people think eating these parts are gross but I believe throwing away edible parts of an animal is truly gross and incredibly wastefull. Good luck my friend and stay safe.
@@billygauthier9512 I'd feed what you said people think is gross to eat to my Dog because he has to eat also.
I'd hate to be in that Situation.
I hope we USA never gets invaded.
I really feel sorry for this Man.
Maby he will contact me so I can send him some Super Special 12 Gauge Rounds.
This will be like I did something to help him and the Ukrainian People.
@@billygauthier9512 I'm sorry Mr Gauthier I got you and Mr DuPont mixed up .
My Bad please forgive me.
I apprentice and enjoyed your input good stuff.
Mr DuPont he probably didn't have a Hatchet but will defently need that small Axe.
As far as the Emergency Space Blanket, it will get you killed being that it's Shiny and bright silver not Camouflage or even Earth Color.
That's good about what you said with staying out of the way.
Unless to get organized into Guerrilla type Warfare Teams and get Supplies or Weapons & Ammo.
You say some good things Mr DuPont for being an Armchair Warrior.
It's not a fairytale my friend, it's reality. Ukraine is the hero of the world. I hope you and your family and friends are in good health. Slava Ukraine ✊
I respect you and your country for standing up for your freedom. I will be praying for you, stay strong.
The old men in government start the wars but it is the people who suffer.
