FINALLY, FINALLY a brother showing urban get home bag. What we need is to show the daily grind of just getting oriented with using the atlas. That’s the most important part. Having a small radio and then maneuvering around the chaos to get home even just traffic jams. If you can do that for us would be great KZfaqrs don’t show that. You know your city better than anybody else. This would be a great effective way of really dealing with the urban grind. People want to show the worlds gone to hell instead of being lost and confused especially if in another city. Showing how the compass would be useful while on foot 🦶 inside the city. Thanks SEMPER FI

An "urban" get home bag? I'd suggest losing 4 of your lighters and swapping your black electrical tape for Gorilla duct tape. Just take the map pages that are relevant. You can easily lose a few pounds and save space. Movin along.

Husband and wife team truck drivers here. We both have 72hour bags set up and stored under our bunk. With how things are these days in emergencies we have to be able to take care of ourselves. I never thought about a silcock key before, that’ll be something I’m adding into my bag. Good video, thanks for taking the time to show us.

Well thought out. PIcked up a few tips. Forgive me I missed it, but a p38 or p51 can opener is a small, lightweight addition. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.

Well done, sir! I started carrying a sillcock key a few years ago. Havent needed it yet but there can always be a first time!

If I can suggest a few things. Add a way to filter water and boil that water. I didn't see a shelter or poncho. A Bic lighter is a huge help too. The sillcock key is great though. I didn't see any food. Perhaps add 3 days worth just in case. I'd remove some of the gadgets but love the medical kit. ❤

The hat clip on the pocket light is a must have for any light I buy. I like what you did with your bag and every bag needs to be specified to the person carrying it. I took out a lot of redundancies to reduce weight so I can move faster because if SHTF every day is going to be worse and more dangerous than the day before. Something I like to carry is a sandwich bag with dryer lint as its a great fire starter and will even work with that ferro rod. As always thank you and anyone serving in the military for their service. Glad I found this video and Ill be checking out more of your content!

First time viewer, subbed within 2 minutes, Sav, Ga. In the house. Thank you for your service sir. And yes, In GOD WE TRUST!! Amen

Great video, like the urban get home bag. I never thought of the toilet seat cover. Thanks for your service and your time making the video.

Thank You for your service brave Sir

Thank you for your service. Subbed. Good vid. Useful gear. These bags can be harder to do than people think.

Great suggestions. Thank you for sharing!

So many people forget to have a map. Good video.

Well thought out bag, thanks for the video.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and wisdom on these get home bags. Thank you for your service God bless and take care.

Now that makes good CommonCents brother! You have a great start here and you are thinking about being prepared which is more than most people. Really enjoyed your video!

Hey Bro, 1st off I want to say THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE!! 2nd, you have a damn good set up with that bag! Well thought out and you gave me some good ideas for my bag! Thank you for that! Stay safe out there! 🤙

one of the best video i have seen on get home bags

Thank you for your service

Excellent bag. Love the redundancy. Especially with fire and water. I use the PACE method for my kits… P- primary A- alternate C- contingency E- extra This bag works well with that system. If you have one, I might have missed it, but I keep a mosquito headnet with all my hats. Sewed a pocket inside the tops of them to store it. Also, I keep a small-ish prybar in my urban bag, as well as a lock-pic set (a great skill to have). Great video, got my subscription. 👍🏼👍🏼🇺🇸

awesome video thanks 👍👍👍. God bless you Always.

Just subscribed you have a few things i never thought of in my bug out bag like the electrical tape and wrench and a few others.I will be adding those my next trip to walmart or loew's .

The toilet seat covers were a nice touch and a great idea that I havent seen others use, great job! 👍

Keep up the good work brother

Just subbed.. Great work and God Bless

You had a Sill Cock key to obtain water, but no water bottle to store your water. You said you could attach it to your bag. If not in your bag you most likely won't have it when you need it. Stay safe😊

Good video with good info!

Great video! I may have missed it but I didn’t see anything to eat and drink. I carry protein bars and electrolyte powder. In stressful situations your body will need fuel and hydration to continue to move and think clearly.

Good things to consider. Good video

Put either an MRE or a pack of SOS Emergency Ration bars into that pack. Or make your own MRE with snacks and anything that lasts a long time. Depending on how far you have to go on foot to get home, you're going to get hungry. Ready to eat rice packs and ready to eat tuna/salmon are great to mix up in a pinch and dont take up a lot of room. Don't forget to pack some gummy bears too. Also for urban and some rural GH/BO, a pry bar comes in very handy. Doesn't have to be anything big and heavy. Something to pry open doors or anything with. There's also small pocket sized pry bars that will save the blade on your knives. Don't want to damage your knife if you can have something dull to use. Also, for carrying water, a nalgene water bottle is a must have. If you're trying to get home, you won't have time to stop and boil water. That's what you filters are for and you should also pack some aqua tabs to purify water you collect while you're moving. There's an excellent water bottle called the Grayl GeoPress and another one from a company from Germany called Bachgold that has one like the Grayl for much less $ on Amazon. Also, this is very important, SAWC(Size and Weight Constraints). Be mindful of how much stuff you pack into your bag. Every item adds weight. Ounces add up to pounds. Us bigger dudes can carry a lot but in bad times, low on calories, high stress and long distances to cover, that weight takes a toll on you. Take your kit out for a weekend of hiking and camping. By time you're done, you'll know what you really need and what you dont.

Amen - In God we trust. God bless!

Thanks, kindly add links to get these items. Moving along.

Great bag I got to build one out for sure

I liked your video and the gear... Being in Georgia you are ready for the Walking Dead..

Thanks for sharing great content. Keep making the vidoes. Good gear. Good bag. "Possible" recommendedations for your urban get home bag 1. gator neck to shield face and mouth, to keep warm and protect from inhaling hazardous air particles. 2. Pocket knife+Glass breaker combo. 3. Grayl water filter bottle. 4. Mini crowbar. 5. Small binoculars.

great video, very practical and not all GI-Joe costing thousands

Great stuff!

Change of shoes and socks. You have rain jackets but if you have ever walked in wet shoes ans socks or boots it will destroy your feet and attitude. Also mole skin patches to stop potential blisters on your feet.

Awesome!

What about a sleeping bag or something similar if it took more than a few hours to walk home?

thank you

I've put together a bag that's a little of both, because it might take me a while to be able to get home as i travel thousands of miles a week.

Cool

Is this urban bag meant for getting from one city to another or within the same city?

Like and subscribe 🙌🏽✅

Do you mark the pack with your last name on it? and inside it? Paracord? Duct tape? Bear Spray?

As a black man I appreciate this brother.......

I can't really imagine a scraper or a wrench coming in handy in either a bug out or get home scenario. If you really do find yourself needing things like that they should maybe be in your vehicle kit if that's even an option for you in the first place.

Nice.

Full water bottle, can't always find water and after a few hours going the thirst will be painful

#MovinRightAlong 😂😂

In god we trust 💪🏾

A prepaid cash card with a 5$ bill wrapped around it, super glue, I carry a little pic set and knee pads for changing tires. I also always carry something to cut tape if I get grabbed and a handcuff key. Med kit and always have something to barter with. Mace.slapjack I've ran into crazy stuff in urban settings. That seal key is great idea man. Also I carry an airhorn or alrm like for doors. All in my edc fanny. Lol

How many times does he say “movin rights along”

Nice bag, but it seems to me that the trauma kit and the rain poncho should be more readily accessible.

Well, at least you're doing more than most. But 80% overkill for get home. Imo

Coast and nebo are great and cheaper in price

When you place God first you get a new subscriber in me.

Holy hell. Ok lets play a game. Get 2 or 3 friends, 5th of booze, and some shot glasses. Now evey tome he says "guys" ya take a shot. I promise you by the 5th minute nobody is gonna be sober. Nobody will make it tthroughthe video. I mean nobody.

Guys guys guys guys guys guys

Thank you for your service sir, I did my 20 and retired. That said, I have been building these kinds of bags/packs for a few years now. And as you said, when I started, I got a lot of information on how to do it from KZfaq. I'm sorry to say, and I mean no offense, but perhaps you should engage in some study from KZfaq yourself. This is one of the worst GHB videos I've seen. Where's your water? Where's your water purification systems? What do you plan to use as a non-lethal form of self defense? It looks as though you have two med kits, put both the blow out kit and the boo boo kit in one pouch, save space, put that kit on the outside of the pack for easy access, with a molle pouch it will attach right to the side of the pack without issue, for first aid you want to be able to get at it fast. Fire......you have torch lighters strewn all over the pack, make a fire kit and include more options for making fire, a ferrocium rod with a striker, matches, and tinder. Again make a fire kit all in one pouch. Keep an extra lighter or two in other areas of the pack as a back-up in case you lose the fire kit. This makes things more organized. Food.....I believe I only saw one food source in the pack, you could easily carry a bit more food in a pack that size without adding a lot of weight, and you should. You have two beenie caps. Why? You only need one to cover your head. I'm a believer in redundancy, but for a beenie cap? I don't think it's necessary. You have two headlamps, and a small flashlight. Why two headlamps? Keep the one that is rechargeable and take out the other. And increase the charging power of your charger (in other words get a new one with a higher milli-amp hour rating). And the flashlight should be changed out for something more powerful, preferably with a crenelated bezel for self defense use. Clothing....Have you included a change of clothes? Or, a partial change of clothes? I say that not so much so you can just have a change of clothes with you to make you feel cleaner, but what if you're spotted and pursued by some bad people? And they have your description? A quick change of clothing could throw them off your trail. Part of GHB philosophy is to avoid conflict with others, you don't want to get caught up in a fight with other people if you don't have to, it's best to avoid that at all costs. At the end of the video you state that you're a neat freak. Well, I have to be honest, looking at the pack, it doesn't look that way. I see no real organization at all. You have multiple items strewn everywhere in that pack, things that should go together but haven't been organized. If you're in a situation that requires you to walk home, then things are likely in dire straights. You don't want to be fumbling through your pack trying to find something you need like, right now. In addition: The way that you speak and move throughout the video, it's all very fast. It almost gives one the impression that you're just making a video on this subject, just to make another video, and that you really aren't interested in the subject matter of the video, you just want to get it done quickly so you can post a video. I would suggest you re-think the whole pack, the concept of the GHB, and organize it properly. Again, none of what I've stated here is meant to offend you, I hope that you don't take it that way. If you have then my apologies. I'm just trying to help 🙂

LOL! You have 'Dude Wipes' (LOL in and of itself), why do you also need a head seat cover? Space being a premium in a 'Go Bag', filling it with non-essential redundancy is ludicrous.

seems to big to be a get home bag.. least my mindset. a get home bag is something for small (fanny pack size) that u can bring about anywhere and get yourself home within a few days on. water purifier. small first aid. map? fire. knife. flash light. maybe a few rounds if u carry. space blanket. granola bars or similar. the idea is to imagine yourself 3 days from home and figure out the bare minimum you need to get home. and get your stash. the bag in the video seems to be more of a bag to keep in your car that would last you for a week or more to get to your next location. bigger the bag the more attention you might draw to yourself. just my opinion. by absolutely no means any kind of an expert.

If duct tape and zip ties can’t fix it it’s not salvageable lol

Good video man. Outdoor channel here here from Midwestern, Illinois check it out.

Nice video man, maybe just try not repeating "guys" every 2 seconds pleaaase

Love the intro & nice bag. I don’t want to come across rude but for the sake of viewership try to limit the use of the word “guys” in the future. I loved the video but it became distracting. Look forward to more content. Liked and subscribed. Cheers.

Not a proper pack goto REI and get fitted you will thank me

I would recommend that your (Get Home Bag) should look less tactical. Your main mission is to get home, avoid people and not drawing attention to your self. You also got to think from the prospective of other preppers who didn't prep their own get home bags properly. They may also be on the same road as you when SHTF the'll grab your stuff because it's probably more valuable then a (Get Home Bag) that looks like a high school back pack. Also people may want to be around you because camo usually mean active or former military in general.
