RELIGION IS LIKE A PENIS
Its fine to have one,
Its fine to be proud of it,
But please dont whip it out in public and start waving it around,
And PLEASE dont try to force it down my children's throats.
An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life.
Not really. AT the time, I didn't have one, so I was giving MTR a freebie.Originally Posted by Stormfeather

Ceramic water filter.
Solar Oven.
Firearm.
Are our top three in order. why?... Because!
You don't need to be the strongest
or the most intelligent to survive
but by having the right tools and
the adaptability of change
is where you will prevail.
Can I count my Jeep and everything I routinely carry in it as one item
Sure hope I can as it is a mobile shelter that has food and self-defense as well as cash, basic tools, and recovery gear.
Am just getting back into hiking/camping and can see where some of that gear will serve more than one use.
So far, think my SAWYER All-In-One Filter to make clean drinking water has to be on the list.
Non gun best 3 are:
My Rush 24
Katadyn portable filter
Gerber Prodigy
A good bag and knife are a must have
Because of my living arrangements I can't really store water so having a filter that can purify hundreds of gallons of H2O saves on space.
I don’t have “hobbies” I’m developing a robust Post-Apocalyptic skill set.
Ok...I've avoided this thread for three years....mostly because I could never really describe something as "the best".
As a card carrying, and certified, gear-queer, I am also adding new toys the the bin so today's "best" is quickly yesterdays "that was sorta cool but...."
So here goes....
1) Personal protection: Blue Force Gear LMAC plate carrier
Simple, light, flexible, just enough room to mount needed items without so much that you turn into GI JOE.
2) Force multiplier: Aimpoint T1 red dot
Insane battery life, crazy rugged, very accurate and lightweight makes this a personal favorite. Plop it on a LaRue mount and it's not moving.
Toss a 3x magnifier in a flip-to-side mount for bonus points.
3) All around handy tool: a spade shovel
There's so many things you can use this lowly tool for it's amazing. From digging a latrine to smashing a zombie to cooking an egg this guy can do it. This isn't my actual spade but I use mine constantly for all sorts of outside chores.
Not sexy but I think between this, a good pair of loppers, a decent handsaw and a drill press I can do about anything.
If you think that come SHTF you are gonna jock up in all your kit and be a death-dealing one man army, you're an idiot - izzyscout
Thought I might trot this one out again since I saw it while looking for something else. Any updates?
Consilio et animis
Essayons!
As somebody already stated I can't qualify a best piece of gear because everytime I pick something up it would bump yesterday's purchase lower on the totem pole...
If I could qualify knowledge (or ready access to knowledge) as gear I would have to take up my top 3 spots with it. I scavenge the interwebs, bookstores and libraries daily for articles and homesteading/pioneer living content. If I don't purchase it (even if I do and it's too large to realistically carry in a bob) I will retype it into smaller print and bind my own books. I have a whole tote box filled this way with hundreds of recipes, survival tips, how to's, diy's, homesteading and farming info, etc. it's essentially a complete library condensed down into a 40-50 lbs treasure chest of knowledge. It's by far the best thing I have acquired over the years that can be brought with me all but the most dire of circumstances
Cant come up with much, but recently:
Tapco mags for my AK, both 30 & 20 rnds, have worked FLAWLESSLY!
I just bot a chest rig for AK mags from Blackhawk
http://www.botach.com/products/black...for-ak-47.html
Up until now, I had no way to carry mags... This one fits eight AK mags with full cover pouches, which I like..
plus two mag pouches on either side for pistol mags..
Thats about all for now... Ive got my eyes on a few other things, I want to adapt a set of Wouxon radios to
patch into electronic shooter's muffs, so you can hear "normal" and radio traffic, but ambient sound shut down
on report... also fix wiring to lapel mic so the mic still works, but no sound out the speaker.... (Im an electronics hobbyist)

I've got a set of Howard Leight impact pro muffs that came with a jack and cables. That sounds like a cool idea.Cant come up with much, but recently:

Common sense is so rare these days, it should be re-classified as a super power.
