Yea TD has some really good ideas, I'm with Wolf, I am preparing to be on my own for at least 2 weeks, even longer, I have a backpack that I keep with me always, it has a mini maglite, a GI Tritium compass, a flint striker, some can openers, an emergency blanket, a 5'' fixed blade RAT survival knife, a painters mask, 2 shemaghs, and my .45 with some mags. My vehicle keeps an axe, hatchet, machete, tool box, coveralls, boots, and a ghili suit (don't ask). I have individual specific items stocked and I try to keep at least 10 gallons of filtered water on hand also. What I'm lacking is a packed first aid/trauma kit, some 2 way radios, and some kind of power source. I have been stocking ammo, just because I heard it was the currency of the new millennium, and got a few tactical items incase we loose all semblance of law. A good exit strategy is also important. Im nowhere close to feeling totally secure, but I have tons more than most people I know.
