Okay there is alot of what I think is a "fighting" approach I have noticed lately. Some cannot pick up their gear and leave their residense never to return and fight off the for lack of a better word "bad guys" due to the fact that they have a family and children like me. I think this would be an interesting topic to discuss. Has any other familyman thought about what you will do with your kids and spouse if SHTF?
My kids are 3,5 and 9 months so the "fighting" aspect is extremely limited. IMO for people in my situation it is more of an escape and evade thing as in leave and get to a safe location as quick as possible with as much suppliesas possible while not drawing attention to yourself. Am I one the right track? We live in a quiet neighborhood very close to deep woods but I realize some are in more of an urban setting so running undetected to the hills is not really an option. How would that figure in? This subject is one I have pondered alot as of late.
Below is an basic outline of our SHTF gear for our family.
My pack (only listed basic stuff)
Glock 17w/ 5mags and 200 rounds ammo
Keltec sub 2000 (g17 setup)
Food for 3days
2 blankets
4 man tent
first aid supplies and basic medicine
2 change of clothes for me
other basic camping gear
Her pack
Tokorov TM9 with 2 mags
Kids clothes
Diapers
Baby food (rice,lightweight food)
wife clothes
hygiene products
lightweight food
H2o purification bottles
