Energency gadget... on steroids.
Asus Eee 1005HA
Basic Door/Window Alarm
Emergency gadget
Both tool and weapon, just the right size
Straight edge makes it easier to sharpen, + tougher tip
Gorilla Tape
By all accounts and reviews I’ve read so far, it truly is “The toughest Tape on the Planet”
Transportation
I talked about these some time ago in an article, remember someone asked where to get one.
"Alternative Transportation"
Just found one reasonably priced and with excellent reviews in Amazon.
Best Folder
Emergency blankets. I Have several of these around.
Katadyn water filter
for the kits
and food ...
Got to have water: Klean Kanteen Stainless Steel
Moleskine, the ultimate little black cover notebook :)
Fenix L0D-CE. Perfect keychain light. 80 Lumens in a single AAA
Nice combo. The Soldier is an excellent product.
Sabre Red OC spray
Made in USA
This is the brand I use and always have one in my bag and car. ( same brand used by NYPD)
My wife keeps one in her purse too.
Sabre Red Tear Gas
Sabre Red for ladies
You guys have the coolest stuff up there.:)
Jack Bauer’s bag.:) I’d like to get one of these and try it out.
Fox OC Spray
Don’t have this one but it’s the hottest OC spray out there.
Someone once called it “bottled lava”
Pick your poison people, but do carry OC
1) Even if you carry a gun
2) SPECIALLY if you don’t carry a gun
Firesteel
Classic, and one of the few things I’d call a “must have” I own two of these.
My EDC bag: M1936 Musette Bag
Victorinox I bought recently. Most excellent tool, review coming up soon.
Make that "potable" water
And a more pricey alternative by Tikka
Just added one of these to my EDC bag, mostly for smoke, dust and debris

Ferfal, this sounded like an presentation, though for me stopped at around the 6:20 mark. Is there a technical issue that you know of? Phil in Washington, USA
An interesting podcast. Thanks for putting it out.
Thanks for the info, Ferfal.
I have a few questions, if you have the time:
a) You mention Glocks and Browning HiPower for handguns. Do you think SigArms (9mm, 357 Sig,45 ACP), Beretta 92s and 1911s (38 Super, 45 ACP) are less desirable? Why?
Note: I'm not pushing for a gun flamewar --just your personal opinion. And with the proviso that you shouldn't have to mount an impregnable legal defense of that opinion against every gun nut on the Internet.
b) You didn't mention body armor in your broadcast although you have urged it's use here on the blog. Is body armor something that one generally wears only for dangerous situations (because it is hot and uncomfortable, esp in summer) or it it something someone should wear most of the time?
(It seems that here in the USA, police on patrol are wearing it more and more although I get the impression that there was resistance when it was first introduced.)
Don,
If I may, I will speak to your handgun topic as well. Net, it all boils down to what works for you. Ferfal seems to prefer the Glock platform, and there are hundreds of thousands of people who agree with him. He's in good company. It really comes down to what works for your hand, your lifestyle, your shape and size, weight, capacity, the clothing you wear (if carried concealed), ease and safety of deployment, and a number of other factors. I carry a Kahr PM9 (with spare mag) most days, and a .45 Browning/Sig Sauer P220 (big gun) on cold days in which I can pull it off under bulky clothing.
You can also have an extensive discussion of calibers and ammunition type. I would caution against anything smaller than a .38. The FBI and many police departments in the USA have conducted "bake offs" that are publicly available to view that compare and contrast ammunition type, manufacturer, caliber and ballistic performance.
Read here: http://le.atk.com/general/irl/woundballistics.aspx
and here: http://www.firearmstactical.com/ammo_data/ammodata.htm
Needless to say, there's a huge amount of good information that is a few keystrokes away on google.
I'll finish with a link to an article from Massad Ayoob: "Cheap Guns are good enough"
http://www.backwoodshome.com/articles/ayoob62.html
I recommend you google him to read more of his articles.

Thanks, Black Six.
PS Any thoughts on selection of holsters? Inside waistband vice oustside,etc.
Every half minute it stops and I have to click "play". Then says it's buffering 1% completed. Don't have this problem anywhere else.
Hi Phil, sorry for that. I dont know of any probelms but I'm trying with differnet mp3 creators to see which one works best.
FerFAL
It worked for me just fine when I tried it again the next day.
Thanks--Phil
Don,
I am a pistol instructor. Appendix Inside Waist Band (AIWB) is probably the fastest draw from concealment, is comfortable, and it is very easy to hide your weapon from view. To draw from this position, you use your off-hand to pull up your shirt, grasp your handgun, and begin firing at your target as soon as your gun clears concealment. You should also be running (the most important part of a gunfight is to NOT get shot) and extending your arm toward the target as you run. If you want mor combat handgun tips just let me know.
