Back in Turkey i do: my uncle's duty piece (he left it to me when he passed), some cash and essentials like a few black v-neck shirts and dark colored jeans and a pair of shorts and a bottle of gin because I like gin.

It's not really a "go bag" but more of a "well we're fucked, might as well go out on our own terms" bag - I geniuinely hope I never have to use it but you never know

After the northeast blackout of 2003, I stocked up on medical supplies, MRE, a firestarter, candles, flares, fishing line/hooks, multiple knives, some botany books, water filtration and the holy trinity of protection (handgun, shotgun, rifle)

I doubt there will ever be a need for all this, but better have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.

Bingo.

Feels good to take care of yourself and not be largely dependent on others for your well-being, doesn’t it?

If only more people lived their lives this way...

Yup, being self sufficient is pretty rare these days.

I didn't go through all the pages in this thread, so my apologies if this was previously mentioned... But there are online tools you can use to build bags. Example: http://www.bugoutbagbuilder.com

This is the way I've always understood the terminology. A Go-Bag is for someone who might have the need to travel somewhere on a moment's notice (usually on business). A Bug-Out-Bag is SHTF survival gear.

I don't have a BoB, so to speak, but I use a tactical style laptop bag. I spec'd out MOLLE gear that can be attached very quickly to it enabling it to become a 3-day bag in a rush. One of those MOLLE pouches is a pre-packed first aid kit with quick clot, bandages, antiseptics, alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, basic pain killers, etc. The bag itself already contains two knives, two flashlights (a good SureFire and a cheap one), pens, Sharpe's, nylon straps, extra batteries for everything and two power banks. I carry anyway and have guns at the ready, so I don't have that pre-packed with ammo or anything like that. I have an EDC bag in which I carry an extra gun (my Walther PPQ M2 9mm or Glock 19), extra loaded mags for that gun, extra mags for my carry pistol (currently a Springfield EMP 4 CCC 9mm), and a duplicate of all the gear that's in the laptop bag. If I change carry pistols, I always swap out the appropriate loaded mags for the guns I am carrying as I will switch to the G19 when I feel like it. STHF and I will grab both bags. The EDC is a sling style bag so the backpack goes on the back and the EDC gets slung in front covering my chest. My Springfield Saint pistol is always ready to go with a loaded mag in it with two loaded spares. Fuck hollow points, it's got M855's in it. If shit's really THAT bad, I am going to have it in my hands as opposed to a handgun and I want the bullets going through car doors, etc. The EDC bag always has 40 rounds (in boxes) of Federal HST 9mm. Any other FMJ ammo I would need is readily available stocked in my residence.

It feels good to be somewhat prepared, but realistically, I believe I am gonna die quick in a SHTF scenario, so this preparation is more about going down fighting than actually surviving.:

The two terms are actually used somewhat interchangeably for a bag full of stuff you would need if you had to either "go" or "bug out" from your domicile in a hurry due to an emergency situation.

I understand some people also keep a "get home" bag in their vehicle, just the things that might be necessary to get back to where their go bag or BOB is.
