"This probably sounds paranoid to most, but I like to keep weapons wherever it's practical. For example, a handgun... in the tire well of a car, even in areas where guns in vehicles are less than legal could be a pretty big lifesaver in a bad situation, say rushing home from work when SHTF and your vehicle breaks down.

Here's the question. Is your scramble bag in the same general area as your BOB, so that you'd grab both if you were in the area, or are they separated enough so you could potentially only end up with one? If it's the latter, obviously you need some guns in both, and some solid knives.

What I'd do, ideally is have a .22 and bulk ammo in the BOB, since that's not immediate usage weapon, and have a gunbelt with pistol, mags and primary weapon pouches along with guns, a short distance away."

"I just though about my take down .22. It fits inside 7 by 20 by 1.5in container, so I thought I would have a outer shell of denim, (jeans) middle shell of weatherproof material,(trash bag, the big black ones,) and an inner shell, something soft to protect the gun.(Fleece or flannel, flannel would work better since there would be no static.)

I suggest to you all to make your own bags. You can customize it to your own needs."
