Dwight Schrute

I realized last night that in case an earthquake or other disaster hits, I'm totally fucked, and so would my wife and kids.

I decided to start putting together disaster kits at home and in our fleet of vehicles in case shit happens (AKA ChickenFucker's relatives decide to start rioting again like in LA in 1992).

Are you ready in case shit goes down?

Do you have:
- Water and water-purification tabs
- Flashlights (with extra batteries)
- Freeze-dried food for at least 10 days
- First Aid Kit with medicines
- Knives, Guns, Grenades, etc. to fight zombies

Currently I am 100% unprepared.

However, This summer I'm building a storage shed (aka Zombie Bunker) in my backyard which will have space for disaster preparation provisions. I won't have unlimited space, so it's just going to hold enough supplies for a week to 10 days. Normal stuff like you listed. Plus diapers, baby food, formula all that crap you need with little ones. I've got a couple of firearms, but I'm not too stocked up on ammunition, so I guess I should do that too, just in case I have to blast some brain eating undead bastards trying to suck my penis...I mean skull.

You need lots of water and lots of food. Impossible to store enough water if you live an an apartment or condo.

Ha!, Its funny, I thought about this the other day when I read about the Florida zombie guy..I was like what would I have if hell broke loose, right then...what would I have to work with... Luckily I hunt and camp a lot, so some things carry over.

I have a lot of useful stuff in storage, not on this list...But this is what I have right now...if it all went down today.....

1. LifeSaver Water Purifier - Its for camping, but it would be useful during another hurricane or Zombie attack.





The LIFESAVER bottle is the World's first water bottle to remove all bacteria, viruses, cysts, parasites, fungi and all other microbiological waterborne pathogens without the aid of any foul tasting chemicals like iodine which is now banned substance within the EU. LIFESAVER complies with all British, US and European Drinking Water Regulations for Microbiological Reduction as tested and certified by the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine.

Note: A lot of people don't know this, if water is ever shut off in your house....you have about 2 days worth of drinkable water in you hot water heater. If its zombieland, and you are no where near any fresh water...you can ransack homes for the water in their water heaters. I would probably still use a purifier like the one I have to be extra safe though. (especially if time has passed..but like I said, it is completely drinkable as is)

2.Mathews Solo Cam MQ1 Compound Bow

This is my baby, its got about $1000.00 put into it. Its good to know how to hunt for food, incase of the collapse of society. Incase of a zombie apocalypse you can't beat a high powered, silent killer...with reusable ammo.







3.Bushmaster Survival [/B]Knife
This is a survival knife, its pretty bad ass...and pretty large. It came with a lot of little survival things, some cool, some more novelty that I replaced with my own stuff. A good knife would be ideal for any emergency...especially this one in a zombie apacalpyse...because its fucking gigantic =D





So you can see its size


Knife Specifications:

Total Length: 15.25 inches
Blade Length: 10 inches
Blade Material: 420 Stainless Steel
Blade: Clip point, straight edge, and saw back edge
Handle Material: Black cast aluminum
Push tang construction
Compass built into the butt cap
Detachable hand guard
Nylon sheath

Survival Kit Components:
Precision compass
G.I. can opener
Sharpening stone
Animal snare
Snake bite kit
Flashlight
Sewing needles
Band-aides
Matches
Surgical blade
Magnifier
Fishing hooks
Line and sinkers

4.Gamo Silent Cat Air Rifle
This is a pretty bad ass Pellet gun, would be great for hunting small game or self defense...and you can easily carry a ridiculous amount of ammo with you that is really light.

Its surprisingly quiet for how powerful it is and even though it is a pellet gun, it is a powerful one that you would NOT want to get hit with. Mostly though, it would be good to kill a few birds, squirrels, rabbits etc if you needed food.




People have taken out things as big as a fox with it.



And Here is a guy shooting an apple
apple shot with Gamo Silent Cat .22cal - YouTube



5. Hiking/Climbing Hydration Backpack
This is a light back back, with a hydro bladder in it so that I can bring water along with me when I'm hiking or climbing. Inside of it I have a lot of little goodies that would be good to have in case of an emergency....this pack isn't large..but would be good anytime you needed to scout out. If you had to venture out and go hunting or scavenge, it would allow you to carry what you need, and not only BRING water with you....if you were out and FOUND water and needed to bring it back...this would let you.



Other Items Inside:
Handwarmers
Fishing Hooks and line
Emergency Thermal Blankets
Lighter
Water proof Matches
Fire starting kits
Mirror
Couple Bags of M.R.E's for emergency food
Gloves
Multivitamins

6.U.S. Air Force Survival Handbook



I've had this for awhile, and I always keep it in my bag when I go camping or hunting as a small failsafe. A lot of people in the military agree that the U.S. Air Force Survival handbook is one of the best ones out an it has some really good information in it, with a lot of details. Like the back says, it has...

"First aid for illness and injury, finding your way without a map, building a fire, finding food and water, using ropes and tying knots, mountain survival, concealment techniques, signaling for help, survival at sea, building shelters, animal tracking, predicting the weather and much more".

...and it does. Its really a great book to use for reference or learning new things.

7.Paracord Bracelets
Nothing special, but its always good to have a bunch of these..you never know when you will need rope.

8. Hand Pump Flashlight



This is good for anything, whether camping or your power goes out...or any other time because as long as it isn't broke...you'll have light. All you do is pump it, and that pumping action provides the power to light the flashlight.

9. Collapsable Shovel, Saw



Nothing special here, self explanatory. Something that is always in my bag.

10. Multi-Tool



This is a must have, it gives you a lot of things on one tool. Knife, saw, bottle opener, philip's and flat head screw driver, pliers, wire cutter etc.

11. Wolverine Claws





This has no real world application...but it is bad ass. This would really only have possible use in a self defense situation, or a zombie apocalypse but when talking about this scenario, I have to include it =D


So how about ya'll, what do you guys have on you if shit hit the fan?

I realized there are some other things I had or had packed that I didn't pull out in the house the other night....I snag some picks off of facebook of them though.

12. Food Source





I don't have anything fancy, I grow a few garden veggies. It wouldn't sustain me, but it would help better than nothing...and I could at least take the seeds and start somewhere bigger if I needed to. At least having a general understanding on how to grow your own food, is a plus. If you have a little space in you back yard, I would do it. Its nice having fresh tomatoes or peppers or even salad, fresh out of your own yard.

For those of you that live in apartments, they actually have indoor hydroponic, layered gardens that plant miniature food. You can basically grow everythin you'd put in a salad, and grow the lettuce as well. Cherry tomatoes, onions, lettuce etc. And it's small enough to fit on balcony or even inside your apartment and you'd grow it like people grow weed to smoke =D


13. Camouflage - Ghillie Suit

This is good for not only hunting, but scouting out or traveling anywhere in a world were chaos rules. The ability to choose when you can be seen and when you can't is a huge plus. I have a ghillie suit for hunting and I also always wear it, with this freaky skeleton mask on Halloween.

It is amazing how easily you blend in, even in urban areas. The great thing is, you can wear almost anything under it. Its really elastic and you can quickly pull the pants up and throw the jaket over every day clothes and BAM.. you can vanish.

Note: You can get these for like 20.00 - 40.00 at like academy. Or you can go big and get some really fancy ones for more.

Here is the suit when I wore it on halloween last year. (It was literally the funniest night ever, I scared so many people it was ridiculous)


Here is how well it works...in the DAY time.


Here is flat on the ground, at night. If the flash wasn't on, you wouldn't see anything at all.


Here is another on the ground


And one just simply standing infront of a fence.


Sitting on a pile of logs


With Flash


These are close ups, and your expecting to look for something camouflaged, so they are more noticeable. In real life, you go unnoticed. On halloween night, I would literally lay on the grass and people would walk right past me and I'd jump up and scare the shit out of them.

14. Tent and Kayaks



I don't know how much I would want to stay in a tent in a zombie Apocalypse, but other disaster scenario's, you might want to get out of the city and until you build yourself another shelter, its nice to have something to sleep in.

Or even IN a zombie Apocalypse, depending on where you live...cities, mean people..and people = potential zombies. So taking off out into the woods, deep, and setting up camp until the dust clears...wouldn't be a bad idea...as long as you could set up some traps and warning signals.

The inflatable kayaks would be good as well. I have a lot of water and rivers around me... I have two jetski's, but they are gas hogs so I don't know how much help they would be. If I needed to get across water, I'd use these.

Im going to also assume zombies can't swim, so If I need to travel to different parts of my city, there are canals that run deep in to the urban areas with a lot of places I could pop out at. So I could use them to travel quietly and hopefully, where zombies aren't walking around =D

If zombie is a metaphor for mobs of desperate people trying to get your stuff then ok. But if you're worried about undead people then you need to stop watching so many brain eating movies and you won't be worried about brain eating zombies.

Personally I am prepping for 3 people for a year's worth of survival.

Do you know you are put on a terror watch list for buying lot's of foods for preparation?

Don't forget a lockpicking tool set. Everything you need to survive is out there. You just have to unlock it. When you know how to pick locks, the whole world opens up to you.

If you're concerned about unlawful detention during such an emergency, take the Urban Escape and Evasion course here:

onPoint Tactical LLC - Legendary Skills for Today's Professional

You'll learn how to escape handcuffs, rope, zip ties, and telephone line (most common restraint for home invasions).

The last day is a training exercise where they handcuff you in the back of a windowless serial killer van with other classmates and put hoods over your heads. Then they drop you off at some unknown location. You escape and they try to hunt you down. Most awesome experience ever!

Dwight Schrute

What type of food are you buying?

I've been looking at Mountain House meals, which seem to have a decent shelf-life, but have also weighed buying MREs since those don't require boiling water.

I'm at a casino in Parker az on an iPad so I can't type much. But I'm def a prepper. Ive stock piled more than just a 10 day earthquake kit. I've stock piled over 20,000 rounds of ammo (42 cent avg) hundreds of gallons of rice in Mylar bags with desiccant, I've got like fucking 20 guns (at least). I've got gillie, nuclear, masks, pills, meds, ways to make meds, night optics, rechargeable batteries with solar setups.

I obviously have no faith in the government. I'd prep for more than just a few days

I don't know why you need 20 guns, but agree that preparing for more than a few days is a good idea. I have rice stored in 5 liter PETE water bottles with dry ice CO2 purge, seems to work very well. All that dehydrated food and MRE crap mentioned by some posters is a pretty poor source of food but I guess if you have minimal space and weight budget you can't do much else.

just buy canned beans. got all the nutrition you need minus maybe a couple vitamins. get those from pills. doesnt taste fancy but do you honestly believe that survival meals taste anything like youd like something to taste? and theres a couple kinds of beans to choose from so you can eat something different with every meal!

i dont prepare for these silly scenarios, but if i had to, id buy a couple cans of red/white/green beans. the green ones are not nutrition superstars tho.

webjedi

That's what I am fuckin talk 'bout there!
Now I am sure there is nothing new that you need to know.. but talkin is good SOOOOOOO...

Have you thought about gun caches? The ol' rifle in a PVC pipe buried in the backyard idea.. list of gps locations with food caches buried..

You know the first thing they will do is take everyone's guns ..

Dresden mentioned rice storage in mylar bags with dessicant. I started storing rice in PETE bottles with dry ice oxygen purge. Here's a pic:



What's kinda cool is that after a few days a partial vacuum forms (see bottle sort of collapsed at the top) giving a visual indication of a good air tight seal. If you're interested in the process I've got a blog post about it here Rice storage using dry ice to purge oxygen « geomark

I stick to two primary calibers, 9mm/223. But I do have a 50 caliber, 3006, 45, 22, 357, 40 and could go on. Although I only need one thigh strap and one rifle, having more guns with the same caliber or make/model allows you to have more parts. Also a lot of my shit is buried in Mylar bags in PVC burial tubes in random caches within a mile of my mountain home.

Why spend $1 used for a can of beans when you can spend $2-3 and get a whole bag that would last 30 years and have 5x the amount if stored correctly?

Already done, see above. However I don't rely on gps for my caches.

Get guns.. Because with my guns I can take your supplies, remember that. After 3-5 days, people will lose their fucking minds and do anything and everything to get what they need

Obviously defending from zombie hordes is not meant to be taken literally. I was just showing what I had in my house if I HAD to survive some apocalyptic scenario, including a fictional zombie one.

Like I said, I have this shit for hunting, camping etc. Except for the wolverine claws...I just saw that on amazon and wasn't very expensive and I said fuck it lol.

That depends on whats happening, and how long it happens. How much food that doesn't depend on electricity and your refrigerator do you have? How much water when the water goes? Where you going to get food that the rest of your neighborhood isn't trying to get it?

I live in Texas and I've been through two major Hurricaines....the last one, IKE, depending on where you lived, shit was shut down completely for anywhere between 2 weeks to a month.

I've been in a "comfortable house" when shit hits the fan, and let me tell you....that "comfortable house" gets real uncomfortable when there is no electricity (so no TV, no computer, no fridge, etc) No A.C. or heater (So either hot as fuck or cold as fuck, depending on when it happens) and the food you DO have...there isn't good ways to prepare it. (No oven, no microwave, etc)

So if you think your going to be comfortable there, you're crazy...I've been through it, and it sucks....unless you've prepared for it and have generators, MRE's and shit like that.

A lock pick set is actually a good idea, I used to have a set a long time ago. I could pick some simple pin tumblers....but that shit is harder that it looks. Then again, I was young and impatient when I tried. I should get some more and go through some refreshers.

I have cash and guns. All that other shit seems pretty unnecessary considering I can get my hands on anything else I might need when the time comes...

I think knowing how to fight and defend yourself really well would be a highly desirable skill to have. That's probably the one area I'd focus on if I had more free time.

If you had cash, guns, and lethal hands I mean shit, what else do you need?

jryan21

Speaking of LDS, here is their manual about disaster preparedness - storing food, etc : http://www.abysmal.com/LDS/Preparedn...eparedness.pdf


If you're wondering about where to go, this guy's done a lot of research:

swiftclick

no ones gonna want your worthless paper money

HKSEO Rotzee

Depending on the situation, cash may be worthless. Guns are always great. Im not sure what you mean by "I can get my hands on anything else I need when the time comes". Do you mean you are going to use your guns to go steal from people? Kill them?

If so, thats exactly why people have THEIR guns....to kill you when you come get it. What about for minor disasters...ones where you know society will be there afterwards. Are you really going to go murder people for food?

I agree with learning how to fight. Jiu-Jitsu has been amazing in my life. Its great for your health, stress levels and fitness...but is also really good to know how to handle your self in unarmed combat. Most people are oblivious to what a real fight is like and they overestimate their own abilities.

Some think if they are larger than a person they will automatically win, or if their muscles are bigger. Some think if a person "looks mean" then they automatically CAN fight. Tattoos do not win fights.

When you fight everyday, against people of all shapes, sizes and skill sets...you learn not to ever size anyone up. And you also learn, that there is a significant difference between someone trained to fight...and has dedicated years of his life learning how to fight...compared to someone who has never fought...or only been in a few highschool/college fights.
