Review The Tactical Traveler Bug Out Bag. Lets face it.   No matter how much we hope we will never have to evacuate the comfort of our homes, there is always a possibility that circumstances will require that we gather our emergency supplies and leave on a moments notice. When that happens, you want to be ready to grab your spouse, your kids, the family pet and a well stocked bug out bag with enough gear to get you by for at least 7. Where do you start  If you are like me, you started with a very basic kit using items you already owned. From there, you advanced to a more robust pack filled with the esoteric items of survival an emergency radio, a tactical knife, some rudimentary shelter, a first aid kit, and fire making supplies. As easy as it may be to be smug in the knowledge that you now have a Bug Out Bag, over time you are going to want to refresh and renew, or even start over. Today I am thrilled to present the Tactical Traveler Bug Out Bag from Ready to Go Survival. Not only that, the nice folks at RTGS are providing a Tactical Traveler valued at over 4.

This pack is fabulous  Okay, I am done with my review. Just kidding, of course. My first observation when I took Tactical Traveler out of its box was that everything arrived, all at once, pre packed in a military grade Rothco Medium Transport Bag. Now why is this important  Because when I order a package of something, I want it to arrive together not piecemeal over a matter of weeks. Plus, having everything packed inside the bag allowed me to see how to take advantage of all of the nooks and crannies of the pack and to maximize its space. The stated weight of the Tactical Traveler is 2. I weighed it myself and yes, it was almost exactly 2. Weight is important because if the pack is too heavy, at best you wont get far and at worst you will hurt yourself while carrying it. I took a 3 mile hike with the fully loaded pack and had no problems whatsoever. Granted, 2. I am on the small side and was concerned about carrying even 2. I need not have worried. The design of the pack is such that you can adjust the straps so it fits perfectly. The other thing is that the pack itself is narrow, meaning you can pass though narrow openings without bumping into the sides. The loaded pack was such a non issue, carry wise, that I ended up staying outdoors with the pack on, getting water out of a local pond actually, quarry nine and even playing ball with Tucker the dog on the green in front of my home. The Gear. One of the problems I have with purchased kits is that often times the gear consists of cheap, no name items being sold at a premium price  Not so with the items in the Tactical Traveler. Here is a complete list of what is included 1       Mil spec Rothco Medium Transport Bag. Piece First Aid Kit. Potassium Iodide Tablets 6. Mg. 10     Ammonia Inhalants.

Multi Tool add on itemI wish that Ready To Go Survival had been around with the Tactical Travelerwhen I was first putting my bug out bag together. It would have been a lot easier in the long run to start with all of the gear I needed, nicely organized. Whats Missing No pre packaged emergency kit will be 1. With the Tactical Traveler I will want to add few personal items such as a flash drive with copies of important documents, toilet paper, hand sanitizer, pet food, No Rinse bath wipes and prescription meds. And of course, my personal weapon. Extra clothing will need to go in a secondary pack. It is worth mentioning that Ready to Go Survival will customize a pack for you. So, for instance, if you want 2 rain ponchos instead of 1, no problem. Just let them know. The Giveaway. Here is the part you have been waiting for.
