Thanks for watching Survival Bros! I'm here, kicking it at the Mill Ponds
in Seaside Oregon with my boy, Tactical
Gypsy. He's a former Marine in Infantry.
He's gonna show us what he carries on him every day.
So go ahead. What you got? It's actually pretty basic.
I just carry my notepad. That's just something NCO's do.
In The Marines, you carry a notebook and your pen.
In case I need to remember something cuz I'm getting old, and I forget.
Or if I run into a beautiful female.
That's The Black Book huh? That's The Black Book, yeah! (Laughter)
My Casio G'Zone. I'm horrible with phones. It's waterproof so I can drop in the water and all that.
Shockproof (resistant).
Cool. The things that actually
people will be like, OK that's you EDC...
you know. I carry this Nitrolon Sure-Fire G2
with an LED light. I like it. I've had it for a long time.
It's bright. Lasts a long time? It takes CR 123 batteries and
and I think it lasts. I couldn't tell you that like the specs on how many hours but it it
last you know
long enough for me. K. Always carry a lighter.
I don't smoke but I just always carry a lighter.
Sure fire. You can do a lot with it.
Yeah . My Raspberry Lemonade Blast.
Wow! Manly. Hey. The girls dig it. It works huh?
Makes you taste good. I hate chapel lips
and that's why I carry it.
That's cool. That works. Other than that its
you know I got my wallet. Some cash. I always carry cash
my ID's. I'm not going to show those to you. I've just got
my driver's license, concealed handgun permit
my military ID hmm because I'm
actually in the National Guard now. Let's
see what I got. Okay yeah. I got this Coast
DX 356 knife. This is
brand new to me. Cameron just hook me up with this so
Yeah, it's sly. I'm gonna be testing it out and
get back to him or what I think about it.
I'm literally, I'm trying not to cut to cut too much stuff with it because
I actually would prefer to carry two knives, one as a utility knife for cutting
everything you know like my cheese, my apples, boxes
and one just for defense but he wants me to beat it up so I'll beat it up.
Yeah, it's cool. It has the deep pocket carry, dual lock, G 10.
Other than that, let's see...I
always have this Survival Straps bracelet with 550 cord on it.
Yeah, you love that one, huh? You get lots of compliments on it? I actually have.
People like it.
It's kind of unique. Not a lot of people have seen one with this type of clasp
or like the triple braid (double fishtail)
Yeah. So it's cool. They think you made it too huh? And if you guys know about this you
know you can do with it. I don't need to start explaining everything you can do with it.
It's probably fifteen - twenty feet of paracord though. Yeah.
Mil-spec. Cool. I got my watch
this is a Suunto Black Core
One of my ex girlfriends bought this for me.
It's a pretty awesome watch. Yeah I don't know...
it's got a bunch of features on it: barometer, altitude, compass
temperature, Sunrise, Sunset,
you know - chronograph, countdown timer, alarm.
It's a real tool. It's got a lot of features. You know, it has this bezel here
for when you're doing land navigation, so you don't get off course. I like it.
What's that retail for? A couple hundred..
$300-$350 something like that. FREE. Get a girlfriend
that likes you, then you won't have to pay for it. I hear you man. I've hardly had to pay for any of my
Jordans
My clothes just vary
depending on what I'm doing. If it's cold out, obviously I'm going to wear layers.
or I like these Merrell Moab (shoes). Show us those. Those are sick. I wear these when it's wet
out, it's has been wet lately but
I also just enjoy some canvas Vans. So I usually wear those too.
Just if I'm rolling around the city or something, but if I'm going to be out
and it's raining. I'll wear these. Because I really like these.
They're not like cool, but.. Where'd you get those? I got them in Portland somewhere
some outdoor place. I can't remember the name. Waterproof though huh?
They are called the Merrell Moabs. They got a Gore-Tex *** inside.
Sly. They're nice. Alright. What else you got in your pack?
Um, well...The one other thing I carry everyday is
Yeah? Uh oh! Is..
my Glock
Model 2340 Smith & Wesson. I've had this for
nine years, and this thing
goes with me everywhere. This is my baby. Does it have a name?
No. Not yet?
Danger! No..
That's sick. And I carry that in a
inside the waistband Kydex holster made by Blade-Tech.
It's pretty comfortable, and you can see how it just
disappears if I have a jacket one me. I didn't know this was on you.
And you got the leather belt.
The leather belt - I guess you could add that to it. Money.
If you are really going to be like - oh yeah EDC - you can use everything - I mean you can even -
I have paracord in my in my silly boots - you know that I can use.
Right. Re-purpose it. Re-purpose it...
OK. Let's talk about your bag real quick. This bag -
I mean I don't have it on me all the time, but if I'm going to a friend's house
or I get in their vehicle, I'll throw this bag
in a vehicle. And it's not like a, it's not like a Bug Out Bag where it has
like
three days a food, but this has enough stuff in it
where I can either help somebody that gets hurt, because I got like my Med-Pack
right here
that has an extra magazine it right here
for my Glock...Nice. I got a couple Chemlights. I not gonna to rip this thing
apart totally. Maxpedition (Brand) though?
Yeah...What do they call that? Hard use gear.
That's a cool one. A little Med-Pack.
Inside here, I got gauze. I got an Israeli pressure bandage - I got some Quick Clot.
I got some um..
what are these? Like four by four pads, tape.
I mean lot of gauze, lots of tape is really what you need.
You need to pack that wound, and seal it off and tape it. Now that's something that The (National) Guard
would provide you with? Or did you buy most those little things off Amazon or
something?
Oh well, I have my own IFAC - is what they call it for the National Guard. This is just
my own civilian thing that I got
I just threw together a quick. Okay.
I usually got my laptop in here
charger? My charger.
I got this little thing. What's that? Its just got a little Multi-tool.
Oh, OK. And an extra little blade.
Serrated (blade)? Yeah. This is made by Gerber. Alright, cool.
Yeah, Coast you should probably make something like this. With a flashlight that goes in here.
That's nice. Do you keep any food in here?
No. Water? Well sometimes I have like a couple bags of peanuts
but I ate those the other day because I was hungry.
I got this just in case I need to throw everything in it and waterproof if it
starts raining real hard. Collect water with that then too?
Yeah, you could do that too. I have
my Level 2 body armor over here. I don't carry this with the
all the time but sometimes it makes is way in here because I do go work in The
City on security so...
it's in here a lot but it's not something that I like wake up in the
morning and I'm like ohhh...I have my body armor with me.
So don't be messin with this guy
if you see him at the clubs. Haha I got...
my fixed blade. This actually isn't like
this is just a blade that I had. It's actually Gil Hibben throwing knife that
I've had for ever. I don't even know if I've seen it.
You haven't seen this? I don't know. I wrapped 550 paracord around here - it works - does the job for
me. I put a
nice edge on it. This is what I usually use in the woods.
So if you're skinning something, you might use that or?
Nah, I've never skinned anything with this. I usually this for firewood
just whatever. So it's full tang? You can baton with it or
whatever?
Oh yeah! I beat on this pretty good.
It's not like technically a "survival" knife or
whatever you wanna call it. It's a throwing knife that I had
and I needed a fixed blade and I was broke
so I just made it work. Have you trained with it - thrown it much?
Oh yeah. Right now it would be all off because of all this 550 Cord -
Sure. But I have messed around with it., and thrown it. Yeah, they're actually really good
throwing knives.
Let's see what else I've got in here:
What else? I've got my little boo kit
so in here I've got some Neosporin, some duct tape.
Yup, good idea.
www.SurvivalBros.com
All the little tiny Band Aids so if I
nick myself or something I can make sure they don't get any uglier than I am.
Got any Moleskin in there? No Moleskin.
My feet are hardcore. I don't need Moleskin.
You don't get blisters?
What's that? Tooth stuff. No fluoride huh?
No. Some Tom's. Fluoride free. Got to stay away from that! Yeah.
uh...Tourniquet.
I believe this is the Combat Application Tourniquet (CAT)
with this little windlass right here. Looks like a nice one. Yeah, it's a good one.
Tactical (black).
Let's see...
My other little pouch right here, I got this light for it's an
extra light, but this is my weapon light. This is Sure-Fire X 300
weapon light.
So I could throw it on my weapon if I need to or use it as a hand-held light.
Sure. Mount it right on the rail.
black dade central its extra but I didn't get
Just some black tape. Electrical. Some extra
Shoelaces huh? It's extra line I threw in here in case I need it.
Extra batteries. Smart. These go to this guy (flashlight) too.
This is a pouch of crystals and rocks. My sister is into
all different kinds
of healing and spiritual stuff so
she gave them to me. Let's see them.
They're are in there, wrapped in lambskin and everything...
...it helps clear your negative energy? Yeah, exactly.
This is an elk leather pouch.
Yeah? Cool. I could show you this ONE though...
You think it's good luck? Gives you good vibes?
It ain't hurting!
I got this from Indian woman. It's some sort of old fossil.
Before I went over to Iraq she's like...Oh take this with you. It will help you so
hey - whatever. It's all polished up!
Whatever extra you got...those rocks are all wrapped in sheepskin.
It's all good. That's cool.
You guys saw it. So I figured I'd talk about it.
What else? No whistle or anything? Signaling device?
[Whistles] There you go. There's your whistle.
I got a Glock. I will signal just fine with that.
This is my keys. This is odor stuff
because my body armor start to stink, so I spray it with that.
I got a Lensatic Compass. Right here.
This is from The Military.
Probably one of the better compasses you can get.
Someones gonna be like...oh no, you can get a better compass than that, but
I've never had a problem with this. Works well huh?
I've used this to call for fire in Iraq, find my way all around The World.
Kept you safe! Cool.
Headphones! My ear plugs that are not in here right now...
because they're in my other pants.
So you keep this bag on you most of the time, or what were you saying about it?
Yeah, it gonna be not that far from me. Passport...
