A Bug Out Bag or BOB is a pack you can carry that contains various items you will need to survive for a short period of time when you have to Bug Out and leave modern conveniences behind. There are a number of emergencies that can come up in your life where you may find yourself in a situation that requires you to leave town. This could be caused by a force of nature, social uprising, a bad day at work, black plague, terrorism, or even a ZOMBIE OUTBREAK. No matter what the cause, you need to be prepared for anything. The most important resource to be prepared, besides a level head and experience in dealing with the specific situation, would be a handy collection of tools and supplies.

All packed and ready are a 3000 degree fresnel lens for starting fires and burning zombies, my favorite coffee cup, a nice cashmere sweater, and my little dog, good for zombie bait and possible food. Pretty much everything else can be looted later from someplace like Costco.
------------------------------------------------------
Deganveran: My current Bug-Out-Bag is an slightly modified Alice Infantry pack. In it, for food and such, are four cans of soup/beans, two MRE's, four packs of dehydrated food substitute sticks, beef jerky, tea and instant coffe bags with condiment packs. For general stuff I have6 glow sticks, a waterproof (and non waterproof) notepad with pens, pencils and grease pencils. For fire needs I have regular matches, water proof matches and water/wind proof matches and fire starter sticks. I have chlorine tablets and three leak proof water bottles, a canteen attached to the pack. I have maps of the national parks in the area and the city. I have nylon paracord (550 lbs limit, fifty feet), twine and sewing thread. I have antibacterial wipes and lotion.
I have a iron cup with a long handle to drink from/boil liquid with and plenty of cloth towels/eye protection and mosquito spray. For first aid kits I have three, two large ones and one small, bag-able one. The large first aid kits I have added extra things to such as vitamins, pain killers and visine.


What I need is weaponry. If I have my choice I'd want a Calico M-950 with the 100 round cylindrical magazine firing 9 mm parabellums. I'd want three spare clips. For close up work I could use a machete or my baseball bat (which I am much better attuned with combat wise). For long range Id want a Winchester Centennial High Wall Hunter with 30-06 caliber rounds or the new sport hunter model shooting .22's.

Residentmganum My BOB bag it is a general purpose bag (GPB). Crank radio / flashlight, alarm, cell phone recharger. I found it at k-mart in the out door / sporting goods section. Batteries may be hard to come by. Also a miltary survial book, another book on basic first aid. A road map along with an atlas Because I may be on the move. Two of those blankets that are also sold in the sporting good section (foil things) a sleeping bag. first aid kit nothing will help for the bites but other wounds can be treated. along with the maps have a compass. a gas lanter, if not a grill but a section of it the rack it can be placed over fires to cook food or sterilize water. I would have a life straw for those who don't know what that is. It is a a special device for African children to drink dirty water and not get sick. it filters bad water to good water all you need to do is suck up the water like a normal straw. ACE bandiades, bandades, basic items to make a spint, cotton balls, anti-venom you may come across other who are hurt or you may be hurt yourself so think of a wound you could survive or an extra bullet so you don't become a zombie Tools are easy enough to come across so unless you need a specail tool or like to have a heavy tool belt normal don't bother. their heavy and most of the time you may never have the right tool at the time. But carry a bolt cutter, hammer, Phillips, flat head; bolt cutter can cut locks off doors. the hammer to smash lock. the screw drivers to remove coverings. all also double as bludgeon or stabbing weapons. Unless someone cuts off the water the pipes should still be working; America, 1st world countries. Everywhere else you take your chances drink the water. so a good heavy pot to boil the water just in case or raid stores for food and water. If you need to carry food stick to energy bars, candy bars, jerky, chips, ect. stay away from; fish, meat any kind, fresh food and vegetables will parish quickly and could poison you if no careful. Some places are easy to get lost in string, paint pins, glow sticks, road flares or what ever you are comfortable with. make a symble for safe, sespectful, cleared areas, mark doors accordingly. if later you choose to hunt down and kill the threat to humanity or want to help other humans find you (your help that may be coming don't count on it) or notes about the places if you need to back track. Carry at least one change of cloth. zombie blood may not always be dangerous, but come night fall it could attract other zombies. For abit back packers you should do well enough. stay on the move and carry light. A thick heavy club can double as a staff to walk with as well as a blugen. Knives used on the zombies never should be used for killing animals for food or no matter how clean ever used for medical purposes or to cut up your own food. For those with medical issues medicen for; boold pressure, heart problem, diabet, ect. most likely there is no help coming take a cotail of drugs to kill yourself now. Sorry!!! My weapons of choice would be my 30-30 riffle and a 22 riffle. don't forget zombies are stupid and mushy in shouldn't take much to smah thier heads in. Many of theser items can be found in sporting goods section of stores; k-mart, walmart, meijer, pharmacies, stolen off of dead bodies after z-day, hard ware stores, home depot, lowes for a good pratic or a way to survive try to play dead rising on x box 360 or reseach by watching hours of zombie movies. take notes on what would you do different if it were you. also don't forget about reality write down how much food you eat a day you don't want to starv to death. go on a fast for as long as you can, but don't forget the warning signs. possible you may not have gone to the store the day before z-day. Bad luck but if your careful it wont be the end of you. Plain for both the best and the worst. Please commit if you would do something different or this is to much to carry. residentmagnum@yahoo.com good luck to all the zombie hunters and those who just want to survive z-day! Update 50 pounds max Back Pack / wheel barrle water bottle knife Sledge Hammer / your favorite melee weapon for z-day food at least two mre's quick energy at least 4 candy bars / endergy drinks multipurpose tool (swiss army knife) Saftey Cross tool__________Flashlight / compas / radio / cell phone recharger / siren:: a crank recharges it no batteries basic med kit Battery powered drill (break locks to get into a safe place) kitchen items (keep it light and what is most needed) Dragnov (sniper riffle) .357 magnum (your favorite pistol) SMG / Shotgun Map of the general area The human Brain plan don't panic don't loose hope no more than 2 fire arms as ammo and over all weight just updated Sgt.schultz : My BOB would contain 2 knives, a few tins of dehydrated food, 2 water canteens, 100' of rope with a metal hook at the end, a .22 rifle with a crapload of rimfire ammo, a water filter, an advanced medical kit, two handguns w/ a back-loader set, a few lighters, a tin of matches, 2 copies of the zombie survival guide, anarchist cookbook, and a general survival guide, 2 laser sights, a oracle scope, a camo poncho, a few glow-sticks, eating kit, 2 changes of clothes, shake-up flashlight and radio, a combat machete, amulti- tool,and night vision goggles Pfc.Nevarez:Update!

Springatron: If I were to pack a BOB it would have a Camel Back water blatter inserted in it, two MREs, a handfull of Hooah! Bars, Gortex jacket, one pair wool socks, long sleeve under shirt, gloves, gator neck, lighter, Leatherman multitool, and a bat or single bit axe in arms reach would be useful. Marsden: My bag has several canned fruits and vitamin tablets down the side compartments. In the main bit I keep a sleeping bag and a swiss army knife. You cannot get guns over here in britan so I will have to rely on my hockey stick and stealth. I would also bring a torch, a phone (depending if communication is at this point useful at all), an assortment of spare batteries, some various medicines (Pennicillen, Painkillers etc. they are easy to get in Britan.) and finially some matches.

------------------------------------------------
one, my bag will be small like some cross the chest backpack. mp3, AAA battery 5 MRE 5 with the pull tab heater, boot knife with stealth, some gold like rings pendents ect 10 (for trading), core-man med bag 1, three pint bottle with water but can be used for other stuff 1, rain gear 1, metal bat 1(hollow steel) , nylon hammock 1
heat powered led hand light 2,


GunnerGraye:My bag is sort of simple. A flint striker ('Cause lighters run out of fluid eentually but the flint will last much longer even though it might not go on the first strike.), 2 first aid kits, a bolt cutter, a switchblade (Not meant to take on loads of zombies but if one come close a quick stab to the head could take care of them..and also, if a survivor freaks and tries to take over or something, it can also be used to show them who's boss.), machete, a baseball bat, and i dunno what this bag looks like but if it was a backback like mine, then I'd have my skateboard within reach (Not like it's gonna hurt anything, but it would be nice to cruise around a bit if you were in a place without many zombies, and it's always a little bit faster than walking.), and for the last things in the bag..a couple cans of lighter fluid (A nice building full of burning zombies is always a great way to start the day!), and food and water...more preferably canned foods rather than something that would spoil easy (Fruits, Meat and Fish.).

ShotgunMan: In my bag (a gym bag), I would have a 9mm handgun (whatever one I can get my hands on first) and extra magazines for it, a box of 12-Gauge shells and a survival knife in one pocket with the shotgun tied to the outside. As for survival supplies, I could take a lighter and a can of fluid, a radio, a cell phone and battery charger, a road map, a flashlight, a first-aid kit, batteries for the radio and flashlight, and my wallet (with money, ID, etc.) I would also take a couple boxes of Kraft Dinner and crackers and bags of chips (maybe a couple of candy bars), and a few cans of pop and bottles of water in the other side pocket.


Loki_Mast: for this to make sence i should let it be known that im in iraq right now and my bug out bag here is entireley different from the one back home....My bug out bag here contains 2 mres 1 spare uniform 3 pairs of socks, 3 tan tshirts 3 pairs of undergarments, a magnesium fire starter my m16a2 w/210 rnds of ammo(7 full mags) zippo fluid 2 books surefire 3 volt batteries plus some random aa and aaa batteries camel pak improved first aid kit and k-bar. my wallet is always in my back pocket w/id debit card and checkbook if the system dosent go down plus im a smoker so i always have a lighter on me also sunglasses boot knife watch surefire multi tool. the first dead person that i come across carying and 9 mil will be relived of said weapon and that is bug out bag here.
statside bug out bag only differs in the clothing and weapons.
clothing: 1 extra pair jeans 3 tshirts 3 extra socks, undergarments. boots right beside my bug out bag
weapons: glock 29 (10 mil for those of you not gun smart thats about a 40 cal)in a shoulder holster one mag in the weapon with a round chamberedw/3 extra mags 61 rnds total(gotta love cc permits) plus a 22 remington rimfire rifle w/200 rnds (lets hear it about 22s...anyway) iron sites zeroed to me at 300 metters plus scope zeroed at 500 meters



Mikeandberg: The following is this list of what is either in my bug out bag currently or nearby, I put an approximate weight at the end but it may not be accurate as i've recently added and removed a few items...

• Pack is a large alice pack with frame and straps
• multi hatchet survival tool- features axe hammer and prybar in an all in one tool
• Sig Sauer .45 ACP/100 rounds and holster
• 22" Martindale Gator machete and sheath
• 1 Quart Canteen
• Coghlans Water filter system and two replacement filters
• one pack of water purification tablets
• map compass
• signal mirror
• five pack of cricket lighters
• Magnesium Fire Starter
• General Purpose First Aid Kit
• Shaking flashlight
• Mini-Maglite flashlight and spare batteries
• Sleeping Bag and Hammock (when not in a group I can set the hammock between two trees about 15' (5m) off of the ground and stabilize it with the rope
• 6 MREs (enough for lunch and dinner for three days)
• Dehydrated fruit (enough for breakfast for three days)
• One Gerber Knife (useful for more of a tool than a weapon)
• Atlas of my regional area (with carefully marked routes to my safe haven)
• Binoculars
• Change of socks and underwear
• one bar of soap and container
• carton of cigarettes
• one roll of duct tape
• one roll of toilet paper
• one bottle of vitamins
• one sokkia engineers cross-section book (more functional than a diary allows ease of taking notes and drawing diagrams for planning, pages are waterproof)
• handful of mechanical pencils
• 30' of 1/2" dia. rope
• Max Brooks' The Zombie Survival Guide

total estimated weight 606 oz or 38 lbs or 17 Kg
I understand this pack is weapons-light, however, this pack was conceived as part of a group initiative, other members in my group had packs that contained similar items with different weapons. Also, at nearly forty pounds, this is a heavy pack (not including the weight of the pack itself), adding much more equipment would make it far too heavy to be comfortable. Sorry, I can not give a cost estimate of the items in the pack, most were purchased over a period of several years.

Duoman420:

My Bug out Bag contains the following items(mind you all of this is in a military-style backpack:

First Aid:
Flashlight, band-aids, sewing needles and fishing line(for bad gashes), Hydrogen Peroxide, Isopropel Alcohol, anti-biotics I have saved up, marinol, vitamins, pain killers and anti depressants/anxiety medication.

Food and Drink:
Jack Daniels, spring water, compressed loaves of bread, crackers, cans of tuna, beans, corn, and other canned food items, kool-aid mix, powdered milk, dried jerky and other non-perishable items.

Shelter:
Sleeping bag, a small tent, matches(waterproof), three lighters, lighter fluid, portable cooking utensils, radio and cell phone

Misc:
mountain-climbing gear, extra jackets and thick blue-jeans, ammo, homemade napalm and other weapons

Klesh: in my non-existing bug out bag i would use just in case of an extreme emergency i would first get my "dress for success" clothes on which consists of some army digi pants with a belt that has a drop leg pistol holster (which is where i put my sidearm), my glock knife, and a bunch of random extra mag. pouches. then i put on a regular black shirt and camo jacket over.

In Hand: in hand i would probably carry a .22 or a shotgun. something maneuverable so to not get tied down.

The Bag: The bag would consist of all other firearms and ammo i have or could find/buy. (The guns don't work as well without ammo!). then i would put any band-aids, peroxide, lighters, matches, and water and canned goods as i could find. i would try not to carry to much of it for too long AKA- safe drop point or secured locked location. Then make the best of it and get me some zombies!!!!!!

Sporezombie
My Bug out bag is a three bag setup one to give to all of my teammates because you can not live through Z-day alone.

Bag 1:( mountain climbers style backpack) 12 gauge shotgun as primary weapon with 50 shells of ammo, a machete as melee weapon with sharping tool, pistole with 100 shots of ammo, a lock-pick system, cable cutter, crowbar, hatchet, two flashlights that charge themselves, one day supply of water, two days supply of food, a two way radio and a map with info on terrain, buildings, suggested zombie hot spots, and objectives. Finally directional equipment.

Bag 2: (big gym bag) a long range rifle as primary weapon with 120 shells and range finding equipment and scope and silencer, a short edge blade for a melee weapon, a map with the set up as the map in bag 1, binoculars, compass, small video camera, small assault rifle to be carried out of bag in your hands with 200 rounds, As much water and food as possible.

Bag 3:(two one armed bags) one holds a full field medical supply kit plus extra if it can fit. The second bag holds a semi-automatic rifle with 175 rounds and scope. A gladius for melee weapon and a semi-automatic carbine that share the same ammo as the rifle

Don't have everything you need? Below is a list of websites that sell/suggest defensive items:
Ollin Sword Design's Zombie Defense Collection
Techblog: Zombie Defense Station


this is one that kicks arse by Cpl. Parker


Marsden:
My bug-out-bag is filled for maximum mobility and so sacrifices luxuries.

2 large loaves of bread (Compressed into a tupperware container)
3 packets of various vit tablets (To save me carrying around buly vegatables)
1 pair spare socks
A med kit (take out scissors and any other tools, and replace them with;
A swiss army knife.
26 plastic bags sewn together (makeshift tarpaulin)
1 packet of matches (dump the packet after taking the side strips off, place all matches and side strips inside the med kit)

I don't think I have missed anything important. All this weighs 1.76kg, bag included.

TJDOOMSLAYER:
i think a great consept for a bug out bag is a resue bag (i'm not gonna plan that one out, i hate resue missons) or a personal defence and outdoorsman bag. it could contante:
1-string up hammock (for sleeping in trees at night)
2-space blankets (if you go in the back of a hundey and look in its first aid kit you'll find some metalic blkanets made to keep heat in and water out)
1-small firearm
5-clips (one in the gun)
1-colaping rifle(or an m16 form the militarys failed effors to stop the invashon[harder to fnd ammo for])
1-box of 80 rounds for the rife(or 3 clips for the m16)[thats all you can hope for]
4-days mre(meal ready to eat)[gotta eat mate]
1-copy of the zombie survival guide (by max brooks)
1- copy of the anrkists cook book (i know its hard to get but totaly worth it.
1- first aid kit. (lets face it most ingurys you get from zombies will kill you.)
5-cyanide tablets (for the fue sain survivors who have been bitten)
1-nonserated combat knife(or a nice huge kitchen knife)
anf finaly, i'd keep my fzva licence on me for the fue pepole who know what that is so we can reconise one another.

kinda lenthy i know but that would fit in a average sized dufflebag and most of it of small stuff and ealy stored.

Resident-Adam

My Bug out bag is pretty basic to be honest, i'm thinking short term survival til i flee my city, then i'll forage after i get out! I have a "Blackhawk" 3-day pack with an intergrated "Camel-Back" water pack, 3 Meals, ready to Eat packs, a change of socks/underwear. My trusty sleeping bag and K-Bar Combat Knife. For nightime i have a "Sure-Fire" tac-light mounted on my M500 Pistol grip pump shotgun, with a bandolier that hold 50 rounds. My back-up weapon is my baby, my modified GLOCK-17 combat pistol, with 6 18 round magazines i'm good to go. By my bug-out bag is my KDH body armor with intergrated knife sheath/ammo carriers and first aid med-kit. And a crowbar, its like American express never leave home without it!!!


Grant Hatman I probably will only make a 48 hour BOB becuase I dont actualy have a bag big enough to hold much stuff.
6 cans of Green Beans and a hand can opener
4 pices of beef jerkey
1 box of matches
1 bic lighter
1 Hunting Knife
1 .22 rifle and 50 bullets
2 2 liter bottles of water
1 leather jacket
1 pair of boots
and that is about all I can fit in my bag, sadly. If I had a bigger bag I would put more in it, but this keeps it lighter I guess.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

StrykerPez: My BOB is packed in a mil surplus ALICE pack that I removed the frame from for added storage and portability convienence. I had to use some electrical conduit to replace a small part of the frame where the straps attached. It is packed with water and rations for 72 hours, a small first aid kit, a small amount of cash (in early stages of any disaster / outbreak, some people will still want cash), one change of clothes, NIOSH respirator, a handheld spotlight, a LED flashlight, a hunting knife, a small folding tarp, small tool kit, water purification tablets, duct tape, .22LR Ruger 6 shot single action pistol (general purpose shooting if I have no time to grab my other guns), baby wipes, portable CB radio and portable scanner, and extra batteries for all. The idea is that if I have no time to assemble the rest of my gear, this a last resort that would give me an edge over people without any preparation. However, it is something I hope I never have to touch.

______________________________________________________________________________________
HossDelgado: Wow, I guess those with huge BOB’s don't really plan on doing a whole lot of running during a zombie outbreak - if you've ever tried going for a jog with a full Alice pack on your back it's not the easiest thing in the world, and don't forget the hordes of undead chasing you who won't be burdened by days worth of supplies - you're their supplies. And whoever it was that thinks they'll be able to lug around 300+ rounds of ammo is crazy – the objective is to survive, not close with and destroy zombies! Keep it light, keep it down to the bare essentials, and keep it simple - water, IFAC, ammo, small amount of food (3 MRE’s max), spare socks, flashlight with spare batteries a survival tool (Gerber, knife, etc..), a lighter and some 550 cord.
As for a firearm, there's really no reason to be lugging around a .45. It's large and the ammo is large – and weight is an issue here. On top of that, the magazine capacity is almost half that of a 9mm. Reloading is going to be a pain in the arse when you have hundreds of your former friends coming at you. At this point it’s all about shot placement. There are only two places where you are going to successfully disable a zombie – the T-Zone or the pelvic girdle. A 9mm will cause sufficient damage in both regions to drop the zombie. Accuracy is also an important consideration. A .45 isn’t as easy to fire accurately as a 9mm, especially for follow-on shots. For those of you who spend every weekend at the range and are ‘sharpshooters’ consider this – the first time you get in a high stress situation all the blood will move from your extremities to protect vial organs, leaving you with decreased motor functions. You’ll develop tunnel vision and forget everything that you learned. When this happens, you’ll want a round that’s easier to place on target initially and for follow-on shots – that’s the 9mm.
Let’s move on to long-guns. The key here is something that is relatively lightweight, easy to aim, easy to transition from target to target, and easy to fire rapidly. There are lots of great options out there, all with their pros and cons, but I would have to say initially that your best bet is a shotgun – my preference is the Remington 870 pump action. Pump actions are more reliable than semi-automatics and Remington makes the best pump in my opinion – it’s relatively inexpensive and easy to find. Additionally, the shot pattern of a shotgun makes aiming all that easier which, as I said before, will be an issue once the adrenaline kicks in. I would recommend 2 ¾” 00 buck shot, which will allow you to fit more into the gun’s tube than the 3”. Range is an issue with the shotgun, which is one of the cons, but the idea here is survival and evasion so you shouldn’t be firing unless you absolutely have to – when the zombies are almost right on top of you - so it shouldn’t be that much of an issue.
To appease the proponents of the assault rifle-styled fire arms, I would have to recommend any of the variety of M-4 type models that are sold out there. They are light, compact and the civilian versions, when properly maintained, are reliable. Additionally, the gun hardly kicks at all, making follow-on shots easier. The cartridge is very common and easy to find, and it can reach out a lot further than the shotgun if you find the need to shoot longer distances. For optics, I would probably to with the EO-Tech holographic sight which provides a good aiming point with smooth transitioning, all without causing tunnel vision, and works off of AA batteries.
** For any gun, I would strongly discourage the use of three point slings. Reason being, if the zombie decides to grab the gun, which is firmly attached to you, you’re screwed. Not having a sling allows you to let go of the long-gun and transition to your sidearm or get the heck out of dodge. Enough said**
For melee weapons, let me start off by saying that, if you find yourself in that situation, I suggest you start getting used to the idea of eating brains. But, we got to go down fighting and take as many of them with us as possible, so I suggest something simple and easy to wield – an axe or tomahawk. They can be swung by almost anyone with enough force to cause significant head trauma and are designed to cut through tough material (wood). Forget machetes, forget katana blades (unless you’re a samurai then go for it) and forget chainsaws – I don’t know too many people that would want to lug one of those around along with their week worth of foot, water, and enough bullets to take over a small country. There are a large selection of axes and tomahawks designed specifically for combat that can be purchased.
In summary, those who find themselves surviving the initial onslaught of a zombie pandemic probably want to stay a survivor for as long as possible. Survival is about common sense - don’t weigh yourself down; water is the key to not dieing of dehydration; and most important, don’t let a zombie bite you. Thank you and enjoy.

Strictly if possible items- Thing’s I’d like to have, if I can get them, but not mission critical:
Body armor (worn); Riot or motorcycle armor (worn); Motorcycle helmet; My digital camera and chips;	2 or 3 pairs of self-tinting glasses (I’m slightly nearsighted, and light sensitive, so it would help); Gas mask (on gun belt); Winter mittens
Vanity items: These are things I know I should leave behind, but I can’t.
My battle flag; My certifications (especially my pepper spray cert); A couple novels; A Cutterman’s Badge;	Portable CD player (music is sacred to me; I would kill you for desecrating the greats); My black On The Town jacket (packed at the bottom of the bag)

My pistols (I know I’ve said pistols against skin jobs is bad, but all I have is a pair of pistols because AR-15’s are illegal in CA); I’ll be carrying these in my thigh and shoulder holsters (the thigh holster is rigged to the belt with my combat knife sheath with a nylon leg belt; it’s held up using a shoulder holster as suspenders, negating the need for proper suspenders or belt keepers); For my holster, I sewed the nylon holster to a nylon combat knife sheath, with a nylon leg belt; This puts the knife and the pistol not only in reach, but also on the same spot on your belt freeing space for other gear. (I also attached a dual mag pouch to the leg belt, feeing up that little bit more space; However, I carry a multi-tool in on and a large pocket knife in the other, rather than mags- places those where I can easily reach my most critical tools.) Something to consider: In order to increase your load, you could try moving things from your backpack (or sea bag, in my case) to other locations; For example, rather than carrying a gasmask in my pack (where it does very little good anyways), I’m carrying it on my gun belt (over the holster, making it harder for an unfriendly person to access). Balancing you weight around your body (and reducing your shoulder-to-back transfer load) allows the load to be increased up to 25%.

Simplicity is the key. Remember, this is stuff you want to be able to keep on you for a VERY long time. Remember simply that this is all stuff you cannot live without. This isn't Spaceballs, and you are not Princess Vespa. You do not need that industrial hair drier. Think of things that can assist you in many tasks, not just one. Anything you are going to have needs to have at least a dual purpose for it to be required in my opinion.

Body:
Blackhawk Industries makes several good chest rigs, myself I prefer an H-harness myself, as it leaves more options for pouches, configurations, different types of ammo, etc.
-Four SAW pouches with fastex clips to keep them closed. (can hold all sorts of goodies, ie: 6 x 30 round m-4 /Mini-14 mags, 5 x AK-47 mags, 4 x M-14 / FAL mags)
-Extra large Butt Pack. I have one that has a zipper, and two side pouches, and haev lived out of it for three or more days. Inside: Compressed chow. Protein, protein, protein! Your muscles need that stuff so you don't collapse. Keep also things like matches, lighters, maps, compass, GPS, whetstone, magnesium fire starter, cord or rope of some kind, Zip Ties are useful in a LOT of situations. Zip-loc bags are a must to keep things dry.
-Emergency strobe in pouch. Yeah, live people will probably not be responding to it before the batteries die, but it would work well for a distraction.
Bag: Blackhawk 3-Day Assault Pack
-This is where you put the things that either you will not necessarily need every second. Most of your food should be here, since it is a nice consolidated place for it to all be together. Go for the astronaut chow if available. It is freeze dried and compact, not to mention light. Military rations work well too, as they are small and pretty easy to get ahold of. A further bonus is that they do not need to be cooked, and can be compressed down pretty well. Drop the Charms and the M & M's though, as the sugar will do next to nothing for you, and that's room you can use elsewhere.
Spare ammo is a must in here. Keep it already pre-loaded in magazines so that you don't need to worry about loading up right away when your body rig runs out. I suggest at least 4-500 rounds total in here for rifle and pistol. Hydration: Camelback is great for this, as the bladders are a lot more convenient than bottles, and can be compressed and saved for later filling when empty. I suggest at least two 120 ounce bladders. Like they say, "Hydrate or Die"
First Aid is good to go in here too, but the simple fact that if you are bitten by a Zed, you can forget about the band-aids, and swallow your gun.

There are many other tings that can be included, but you all get the idea.


Tacticalplanner:
My BOB consists of:
1 2-quart camelback
water purifier tablets(amount dependant on situation)
160 Coleman Waterproof matches
3 Coleman waterproof pouches (keeps everything from food to your socks dry)
1 Coleman 5-in1 survival whistle(contain signal mirror, match container, compass, whistle, and fire-starter flint)
2 emergency blankets 1 space and the other a 2 man capacity blanket(for 2 people or a tent!)
1 Cabella's multitool with LED light
2 extra pairs of socks
foot powder(trust me on this)
Designed for 24-hour survival

Expanded BOB:
All the above
cold weather jacket
3 days of food
spare boots
change of clothes
LED glow sticks
batteries
Designed for 72 hour survival

Add-ons for Z-day:

z warrior's BOB
I already have my basics packed and it's really light (one or two days at most). It's designed to make it to a safe distance and stay for a night or two until I can make it back to the fortress.

In Bag
1- Smooth edge pocket knife with a 6" blade
1- 1liter water bottle
1- compass
1- personal mess kit (frying pan and 2 sauce pans with 2 measuring cups) all collapsible into each other with a carrying bag
1- lighter
1- whet stone
1- small fishing kit (bobbers, line, stringer, lures, and hooks)
1- poncho with detachable hood.
1- hobo tool
1- med-kit (sterile gauze, alcohol wipes, various band-aids, tape, q-tips)

Weapons
1- short sword with scabbard attachable to belt
1- .22 cal rifle with 10x scope (semi automatic)
1- 12 gauge shotgun
1- slingshot
1- brown paper bag with ammo and fireworks (1 box of M-100, 10 shot gun shells, 20 rifle rounds)

The reason for the sling shot is to launch the M-100's a safe distance and use noise to lure the zombies away. I can pick a few off before returning to the fortress and finishing the rest of the mob.
