5 Awesome Backpacks That You’ll Want to Bug Out With

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Whenever anyone starts getting interested in prepping, one of the first purchases they make is for a bug out bag. It’s a very simple and affordable thing that any newbie prepper can get, and it will immediately make them feel safer.

Of course, once they get around to doing some serious research about prepping, they usually realize that bugging out should always be a last resort. Doing so would make you a refugee in any disaster scenario, and it’s not be taken lightly. It’s far better to stock your home with supplies and prepare to hunker down during a disaster, and only leave when you have absolutely no choice.

But if that day comes, you’ll want the best bug out gear that you can afford. There’s only so much stuff you can carry on your back, so you’ll need to carry them in bag that you can stake your life on. If you’re just now taking an interest in prepping, here’s a few of the bags that you might want to consider.

Standard Tactical Backpack

You can’t go wrong with an ordinary tactical backpack. Just a comfortable, no frills bag with lots of space and plenty of pockets to organize your gear. Plus it’s water-resistant, and comes with a waist belt that will help take the weight off your shoulders.

Firearm Scabbard

When most people think about taking a rifle or a shotgun with them, they just assume that slinging it over their shoulder is the only way to go. However, sometimes a scabbard can make it a bit easier to carry a weapon. You can give your firearm the protection of a case while still having easy access, and many of these scabbards can be attached to your backpack. This is important because if you’re already carrying a backpack, you don’t want another strap digging into your shoulder. Depending on what you intend to bug out with, there are scabbards for shotguns, rifles, and scoped rifles.

Rubberized Rucksack

If you happen to live in an extremely cold or wet environment, you might want to consider a rubberized bag. No backpack is truly waterproof, but bags that are made of rubberized canvas are about as close as you can get to that. Unless the bag is completely submerged in water, you can trust that your stuff is going to stay dry. And as an added bonus, these types of backpacks are ridiculously durable. They’ll last a lifetime.

Internal Frame Backpack

Ultimately, bugging out means carrying as much stuff on your back as you can reasonably manage, and you can’t go wrong with the type of bags that long distance backpackers typically use. These have the largest carrying capacity of any backpack, and they typically come with an internal frame and a waist belt that helps balance and spread out the weight you’re carrying. Essentially, they’re designed to help you carry a lot of weight as comfortably as possible.

Tactical Messenger Bag

Sometimes smaller is better. Obviously, a tactical messenger bag doesn’t have enough space to carry everything you need to survive for several days, but it does have its place in your bug out bag ensemble. You can carry one of these in addition to a regular backpack, and if you don’t want to wear the strap, there is a belt loop in the back that will let you carry it around your waist. These are really handy for traveling in rough terrain. Sometimes you need to drop your main bag so you can quickly scout ahead, or when you’re settling down in your campsite. With the tactical messenger bag, you can carry the most basic essentials with you at all times without feeling encumbered.

While this is hardly an all-encompassing list of bags that you should bug out with, hopefully it will give you a starting point. Everyone has different gear, personal needs, and challenging environments that they would have to overcome in a disaster, so take your time and do your research. You’ll find the bug out bag arrangement that works best for you.

      Ignorance is highest lost of time, money, & brain power.
      EXAMPLE: Say you believe in BLACK HOLES of which there is no PROOF.
      By the time you realize the probability of the improbability. You might start notice double talk sounds good on the surface and still has no value.
      EXAMPLE: NEWTON had a theory =(guess) not bad disproving the old theory which was in place for hundreds of years. His theory has been in place for hundreds of years he probably died believing himself. His theory
      has been disproven yet it is still being taught to your children as fact. In fact
      it is it’s own religion. You will die quoting people who’s theories have been
      disproven proving your own incompetence.
      Number 1 trend forming NOW.
      Truth is the number 1 trend.
      SO WHAT IS TRUTH? DO NOT BE AN IDIOT TRUTH IS DEFINED. Truth is
      for humans the 5 senses of humans that are concrete in nature to the value
      of their mathematical probability of success. Inspection procedures incorporated into the theory given. What is the tolerance probability.
      So say you do not want the government to rob your grand children blind!!!
      To late for you personally Your grandparents would had to start the process.
      So if you are capable to understand with your 5 senses this SHORT SIMPLE
      statement it’s to late for you your lifetime is broke already. So how do you stop the ALL POWERFUL GOVERNMENT???? Easy take away the value
      they steal BY MAKING THE LAWS YOURSELF & DESTROYING THE ACTS
      OF 1871 AND ALL LAWS CREATED AFTER THIS DATE.
      DON’T WORRY YOU FEARFUL WORMS YOUR ONLY GOING AGAINST
      OTHER MEN. DESTROY THE ACT OF 1871. THEN HAVE ALL PROPERTY
      CONTROLED BY THE GOVERNMENTS DISTRIBUTED TO ALL THE
      “NATURAL BORN AMERICAN PEOPLE EQUALLY”. SO EVERY MAN, WOMAN, CHILD, INDIAN, MEXICAN, BLACK, ASIA, WHITE ECT. ALL WHO
      WERE BORN IN THE United States even the criminals. Put in place that this
      property can not be sold only leased for a 49 year period maximum. The reasoning is self evident. No corporation or trust or government or any other
      thing can own any thing. Because it does not believe that all humans have
      LIBERTY. You cannot tax it either or refuse entry or withhold mining rights or anything else. No law can be passed to change this. MORE TO COME WAKE UP NATURAL BORN AMERICANS.
