I carry w me everywhere I don’t have to go through a metal detector. Signs, alcohol, etc. be damned. I’m about to start carrying something concealable in a backpack that’s rifle caliber. Also have an IFAK with me at most times.
Sweet. The only problem with IFAK kits is that they don't (and legally cannot) have pain killers such as morphine injections. A huge part of treating a trauma and keeping a patient from going into shock is to deaden the pain.
I believe the only ones available are with drugs for typical ailments, prescription level stuff, but no pain killers. That's a weak link (IMHO) of any emergency medical kit. I've read of natural pain killers, like wild lettuce being boiled down to a thick concentrate and added to tea to help with pain, but for the kind of America we might all be facing, true med kits, military grade, with pain killers, bandages, scalpels, forceps, and all the rest might be mandatory.
I have enough gov provided medical training to equate to EMT-B. Knowing how to use all of gear is critical. I wish I had the opportunity to train more.
But yes, there may come a time when we’re on our own. I’ve got heavy stock of meds, prescription and OTC, including pain meds. But not the type you need for battlefield trauma. That’s very hard to come by.
my 9 goes everywhere I go but an AR pistol with a cpl 30 mags in the truck may come in handy especially if we have to bug out fast, it will already be in there
Florida here....starting to get more from Middle East through Miami...that is why President Trump mentioned it in his statement...The first encounter will be Miami and Palm Beach County and due to where the RICHEST live....
However, since Florida has enacted NO PERMIT FOR CONCEALED CARRY...let's just say I am carrying more than one...
Ruger 10/22 takedown breaksdown to be quite small and is a very accurate rifle as long as the iron sights stay true. Also, you can get a 50 round drum mag for it. With that, don't really need accuracy at 4 cents a round.

Morphine is for pussies ; ) JK - I’ve been jabbed w it. Thank God for it. Would be nice to have some IZAS injectors on hand.

I try to grey man things, so I tend to pack 9mm PDW as I go into big city buildings in NC and don’t want to be too obvious.

Aren't you worried your car will get broken into? That's a huge concern where I live.
Exactly.

I’ve been wanting one for a while with the integral suppressor. Great for plinking. Not sure I’d want that in a SHTF Escape from NY type of situation.
Yeah it's definitely a plinker/squirrel gun.
