Hobbies: I love to ride dirt bikes,Fire Poi, glowstringing, paintball, go shooting, woodworking, etc.
My Survival Plan:
Bugging in unless there is no other option.
My BOV: '90 Jeep Cherokee 4.0 4x4 w/Mud Terrain tires and other selected goodies. Used regularly. Clearly I use it as a Jeep is intended to be used. 155k miles on it. Runs like a champ.
My BOB in a nutshell:(updated as changed) >always under construction<
*I now have a comprehensive Survival Kit in my '90 Jeep Cherokee 4x4, to supplement/ take the place of my backpack.*
I use an old external frame Kelty pack. It's from the '80s but it was built better than most of the modern ones. The pack comes out to approximately 26lbs currently, not including the gun. I am working on buying a single shot 12g shotgun than I can split into two pieces and tuck in the backpack. That will cut down on weight and help save ammo.
I may be old fashioned, but at least it's tried and true.

"You're sixteen; do you actually own all those guns? Or are they your parents'? Do you merely plan on getting them in the future?"
I keep the Mossy, Rugers, 30-06, and the Marlin in my room. They are registered to my parents, though they are 'mine'. I can't legally own them until I turn 18.
90% of our ammo is in my room, since I'm the gun lover in my family, along with my dad.
The others, I can access, being in easy to reach places or in safes. There is only one safe of three that I have yet to get the combination to, but all that is in it is the Daisy .22, the Hercules, and the DB.
The BOB stays right next to my bed with the Mossberg right next to it, just in case.
I'll edit my profile for clarification. Anything else you want to know?

In addition to the survival guide you have. There is this book on the market. Its a great big brown book. The name slips my mind. However, it is a COMPLETE , COMPLETE, COMPLETE guide to almost anything you can imagin in the wilderness. Mushrooms to eat, strong weeds to use as string. What water is good/bad. etc. I will try to find the title. I have read it and.... WOW.
