The minimalist bug out bag
I think it depends on your skill level. People who are very experienced can get by with the absolute minimum in their bug out backs, because they can actually pick up stuff on the way. An experienced survivalist can get by with basically just some cordage and a knife. Most people with minimal training will probably want to carry significantly more.
It's pretty much the same with hiking. You don't generally go straight to ultralight backpacking, you generally carry what you think you'll need and you whittle down the weight from there as you gain more experience. Some marines can sleep in just sleeping bag liners, but most people need a pad and bag to get any decent sleep.

Bug Out Bag - is biggest
Not sure why you'd want to take a bug out bag shopping or to work?
It's meant to hold enough essentials to keep you going in the field for a few days.
As for Air travel, some of the things you'd want to put in your bug out bag you'd not get on the aircraft. You can use the Bugout Bag, the 3 day pass and the 3 day elite, as general bags, they are a bit costly, but are well made and have a good warranty, They are also expandable, so you can tighten the straps when you have a small amount in it and expand the straps when you need to fill it. you can also hide away the straps on the Bugout bag to make it hand luggage on aircraft. I recently used my 3 day elite on a trip to Turkey, as hand luggage, had all my main essentials in it, passport, cash, washing stuff, cameras, change of shirt, socks, waterproof jacket, a bit of chocolate and my laptop. fitted neatly in the over head locker.

Bug Out Bag
Hey everyone, there is an extremely important topic when it comes to survival. Bug Out Bags! This is what we will use when we hear on the news about a zombie attack. It will have to last about 3 days at least, until you can find more supplies. Here is my Bug Out Bag:
First-Aid Kit
Weapons (Bats, Shovels, Hammers... Will not be in bag but we will use them)
Food (Canned Food, Snacks etc.)
Water ( Several Bottles)
Blanket
Small Pillow
That's about it... What's in your Bug Out Bag?

Bug out bag question
Actually, if I pack the official "packing list", I'm packing about 52 pounds in my large ruck, PLUS the vest with four plates, 7 loaded magazines, any grenades I was issued, and my weapon.
Use whatever bag meets your needs. I'd suggest finding a way to get to try them out.

Bug out bags
well since i'm new i think it is best to defend my over enthusiastic nature, so here goes. My bug out bag is designed to get out of the situation but if my BOL doesnt play out then i dont have to stress about survival because i have all i need. I got contacts in there because i hate glasses they have NO Peripheral vision, fog up, slide off, break, you name it; but they are a great back up to my contacts. and obviously necessay if the world is screwed (LASIK here i come). i cant believe i have to defend trash bags but i will, here are a few uses; water proofing, quick rain shelter, collecting water, concealing human scent, and zombie disposal. what if i need a shelter from the hordes outside for the evening one where i can lay low but there is a zed inside who i shoot in the head. Now how do i get rid of his body? I dont carry my CBR suit with me since it is heavy and takes up room, so i wrap my limbs in trash bags to protect from the infected blood and go to work disposing of the body so i dont die from disease when the body decays. ziplocks, well obviously just water proofing for ammunition or whatever else in my pack i dont nead readily available. now saying an assault rifle shouldnt be in the mix is nuts, although kalashnikov's are trash i think the rifle of your choice should be as essential as your food. just like the old saying goes; give a man food he eats for a day give a man an assault rifle and he rules the zombie world with an iron fist, full of bullets.

Ironhand's Bug Out Bag
Ironhand,
Great bug out bag, one of the best on the site. I just had a few minor suggestions.
You should definitely bring 2 of pairs of synthetic underwear. If you wear the same underwear for 4 days straight, then your junks going to get a little funky. I went on a canoe trip for 10 days straight with 2 pairs and I was fine. Synthetic underwear weighs almost nothing and you’ll be allot more comfortable with it and it will cut down on chafing, rashes and infection and it is very easy to clean.
I also suggest buying a lighter back. Your ALICE back weighs 5 pounds and isn't as comfortable or as light as civilian packs. Here' some links for better lightweight packs: http://m.rei.com/mt/www.rei.com/product/733276?un_jtt_v_anchor=prodSpecs
http://m.rei.com/mt/www.rei.com/product/778468?un_jtt_v_anchor=prodSpecs
These are just a start. These back are lightweight and like everything at REI, extremely durable.
Think u should also bring a hammock. I have one that weighs a pound that I got from rangers surplus. You will be more comfortable than sleeping on the ground and you can set it up 10 feet above ground and be less visible and safe from zombies. You should also bring a sleeping bag rated to -10 so you don't freeze to death. They weigh less than a pound and u can tie it to your pack, so it won't take up any room.
You should also replace your twine with paracord. Paracord can lift 450
pounds and it is very lightweight.
Your medical kit doesn't have any bandage larger than a Band-Aid. If
you get a serious wound, you will bleed to death. I suggest you bring
some large gauss bandages and medical tape.
You should replace your utensils with a spoon fork knives combo.
Here a like for a picture

Unassigned's Bug Out Bag
That's an impressive load out Unasigned. Do you have a Tac Vest you're thinking of putting some of that stuff in?
Thing's I'd add:
-Loose the Chapstick (Crapstick) & Get Blistex Medicated. I am a voraciouse consumer of Lip Balm. I lean heavily towards ^anything^ by Blistex.
-Add a small container of Baking Soda. It has over 120 uses, & it's a great addition to your Med Kit. Add Baking Soda to a wound & you essentialy have an Artificial Scab being made almost instantly!
-Along with Marriage Certs & Pass Ports, might I suggest Bank Records as well (If Possible)? In the event of say, a Class 2 out break, you will have more info to give to Aid Agencies once you're forcably relocated due to Zeds (or tornados, floods, etc...)
-I'd add 2 more pairs of Shirts, Socks, & Boxer Briefs. This should add maybe only another Pound to your BOB.
Other then that: Fawking Outstanding Sir!

Bug-out Bag
I'm pretty sure that there are several threads dedicated to Bug out Bags and what they should contain. I suggest you check there and in the Weapons + Equipment category. As far as outside the box, sometimes the basic, straightforward answers are the ones that work best.

Decisions for Suburban Bug Out Bag
If you have three bags that can be useful, perhaps you can optimize your resources by finding a role for all three of them.
Have you considered something like:
-Backpack = EDC carry with items like flashlights, rope, medical kit, maps, backup of important telephone numbers, batteries, multi-tool, etc.
-Hiking backpack = Your own personal BOB with everything you would need for 72 hours
-Army bag = Auxiliary bag to be carried by another person if you are not bugging out alone. It could contain additional items that augment the supplies already present in your own BOB or items that would be extremely helpful, but weren't critical enough to be included in your own BOB.

TandC's Full Bug Out Bag
I've been thinking about my bug out bag, and I know it needs some improvements. I can't do it myself as I would be biased towards what I should take/leave. So I need outside help eg. You guys. Please be harsh!
My current issue bug-out bag is a Pathfinder 65. It has been on camping trips with me and it has never let me down. In it I have:
6 days worth of British Army Standard Issue of rations (They can be eaten hot or cold).
2 days worth of snacks (These are to keep me going on a long march).
Hexamine Stove.
8 blocks of hexamine fuel.
2 boxes of matches.
3 packets of tissues (for when nature calls).
2 emergency gunshot bandages (also good for large splinters and bad cuts).
1 Cylume glowstick.
2 pots of camo cream.
2 British Army DPM shirts.
2 British Army DPM trousers.
2 British Army DPM combat jackets.
1 Goretex shirt.
1 Goretex trousers.
1 Facemask.
1 Sliverline electronic ear defence.
3 Classic II ear defence (for when the Sliverline goes kaput).
1 British Army Entrenching tool (hand to hand and a shovel in one).
5 Litres of bottled, potable water.
20 Iodine tablets (water purification).
1 Air-rifle.
200 .22 rounds.
Cheers for reading! =)

Bug out bag for my niece
What you should do is go to her school's website and read their student handbook. Make sure none of the things you're planning on giving her are prohibited.
You should include a small first aid kit and a flashlight. The first aid kit will probably be really useful because I know some schools can't give kids tylenol when they're in pain, so if she ever has a headache or cramps during school, that'll come in handy.
Also, you're going to have to have a talk with her about how these things are not something to show off to her friends. Tell her to put the bag in her locker and forget about it, until the moment she actually needs it.

High Dollar Bug Out Bag....
Alright, I admit it... I'm a survival-nerd. Some guys dig video games or sports, I'm into backpacks, hatchets, guns and hiking boot technology. Earlier today, I was grilling up a St. Louis specialty for my family - pork steaks - and was thinking to myself, "If I won a small lottery and wanted to assemble myself a new high-dollar bug out bag, what kind of gear would I use?"
I guess I'm asking you guys - What kind of bag would you use? Why your bag over the competition? Is there a company you prefer for gear over others (Personally, I dig Maxpedition and Camelbak brand stuff...)? Are you an 'ultralight' high-speed kinda guy like me? Or do you prefer carrying 55 lbs of gear in a 4000 CI external frame pack?

CBOB (Clothes Bug Out Bag)
I never see anybody type this and I feel like it should be a growing need. Think of it guys. We are going to need clothes. Thats is why (since Im still growing) Im putting clothes that are my size and clothes that are two sizes bigger in a shoulder bag. I have my normal Bug Out Bag and now I have packed clothes for the winter and/or summer. I have ran a mile in my BOB and my CBOB to simulate a run scenario. After the one mile I walked three, Ran a mile back and walked three more back. I could easily manuever in it and it didnt slow ME (not you) down. It is a very useful idea that will be needed for the winter time. (I do not mean clothes for every single day. I mean that these should be clothes that you change when the other shirts are torn and ripped up)
