Reply to: Best bug out bag backpack Posted July 7, 2022

Thanks for a great review. Looked at this thread a few days ago before buying a decent backpack and this one sold me on Tasmanian Tiger. Got 30litre one for starters to test it myself ofc, but looking like it’s going to exceed my expectations. Lads at outdoor sports store https://gritroutdoors.com/ told me that they don’t have 45 atm, but planning to get more, so I might use 30 litre one as a bug-out backpack and get 45 for my camping trips. Huge thanks for first hand review!

1. CCW handgun(G43 or Sig P320) 2. 308 rifle(Tikka, Rem or Savage) 3. Small-game rifle(Probably Ruger 10/22)/ Shotgun( Mossberg 500) CCW is self-explanatory – you want something to carry all the time, not bulky, close range 308 rifle for hunting/long range, caliber should be the easiest to find or reload from brass you have. Small-game rifle – small game+pest control = a good option. Other would be shotgun for bird hunting/medium range home defense. I’ve got myself G43 a few years ago and that thing is as reliable as it gets, but Sig reviews are so good that I would consider getting that, since it looks more reliable. Savage 110 is one of the bestbeater 308 rifles https://gritrsports.com/shooting/firearms/rifles/308-winchester-7-62×51-rifles – got it on sale few months ago, had leftover cash to get a few boxes on ammo for it on top. Ruger 10/22 – got one from my dad, probably the best rifle out there with how much you can customize it(on top of how reliable it is). Mossberd 500 is an honorable mention, never used it, but if I were to get a shotgun – probably would be that.

No activity yet.
