Letter Re: Tactical Vests as Wearable Mini Bug Out Bags

James Wesley Rawles November 26, 2006 November 26, 2006

Hi Jim,
Don’t know if this has been covered before, but I think that a 5.11 tactical vest could serve as a “bug out bag” in a vehicle. Easy to slip on, no worries about taking it on and off as you get in/out of a vehicle. Everything you need right within reach. It may not carry as much as a knapsack, but it sure could provide enough gear to get you through a day or so. Best, – R.S.
