Hey! Someone is training! Gud for you bro! I like that your now field stripping. I remember the days you didn’t. Learning and growing. If you aren’t learning, your not living.

Another good one. No legal carry here, .22 semi-auto's only, and some limitations on shotguns, but still have kit , and can do similar but much more bushcraft orientated over here. Even our knife carry is severely limited. So beware of losing your rights folks, especially the 2nd. Regards from the Irish Republic...which is somewhat debatable!

Good 'spaination of what the line designations are for! Thanks Bear!

Excellent video and breakdown. My Line 1 EDC consists of pistol, knife, one reload, a seven year old & very dependable Streamlight Strion flashlight, a small amount of paracord, 2 lighters, and fingernail clippers. Shalom

Very well equipped, Bear. One thing that I do differently is that I carry my comms on line 2. If things get loud, I’ll shed line 3 in a heartbeat. Good video. Keep up the great work.

Great video. I enjoy your channel. Don't forget that duct tape burns really well if you need a flame extender. I seen some people carry a couple sand bags (empty) in their line 3 since if you're out long enough to need your pack, you might need to setup a defense. I'd probably put a couple water purification tabs in the duct taped MRE to purify your gallon zip lock of water. Easy to say while warm and dry in front of my computer :)

Bear I've seen some interviews they've done. Occasionally they pop up on the radio. I'd like to support them if you have a link. Honestly, everytime I hear about them i kick myself for trashing my body in my youth. I'd try to run with them in a heart beat. I had to pull over driving home from work one morning. When I heard about what they were doing in Syria I stopped to pray for them on the side of the road.

I'm from the UK, so we don't have this sort of thing over here. Because we don't have any guns. We can't even carry a knife. In the UK if you have a baseball bat in your car. You can be arrested, unless you can explain why you have it. But as an ex infantry sniper I love the video. I see many video's from people who obviously don't know what they are doing, and they will get people hurt. So it's good to see a video from someone that makes sense. Well done I'll be watching your videos from now on.

I have heard of different ways on how the line system is done. We used a method close to yours: Line 1: Things on your person and in your clothes and not only your pockets&belt. You could add a few E&E things which, depending on the application wouldn`t be a bad idea (if you`re interested i have learned a few very interesting&usefull things about this in the last few months that could be interesting/usefull for preppers/everyone and i could write things down here). Depending on what we did we wore a smock, which was in a way line 1 but i`d call it 1b . A strange but interesting piece of clothing&concept. Line 2: Primarly the LBE, whatever it is. Line 3a: Daypack/assaltpack (about 30 liter, might be bigger or smaller). If line 3b was worn it was under the cover of the backpack. Line 3b: 110L backpack. Probably simmilar to yours. Line 4: Vehicle/storage (although not called as such and usually not included in the line system).

You mean 52gr AP rounds? The only Armor Piercing ammo for 556 is 52gr black top.

i have a line one and a line three...working on a line 2 tomorrow

Hi Bear love the videos I only recently found your channel. I have been into hiking camping and buchcraft for years. I only recently got into fire arms 3 years ago. But due to recent let's say situations home and abroad I'm not just getting into preparing. I know a bit late but I've always been into it . Done alot of reading an watching vids. I have alot of fear buchcraft wise and survival wise. But I need to start setting up Bob bags for myself and my wife and son. So my question is your wearing a battle belt or whatever chest rig and pack ! How much does all that weigh ? What about plate carrier , does the chest rig go over that? I thought that you molled all the mag pouches and stuff on a plate carrier? I'd like to get myself a whole set up similar than yours plate carrier with some pouches mag and first aid small dump pouch. Belt and pack . I have alot of packs already. I'm just no building 3 of them into dedicated Bob for me and my family .Is there a website you have with information on some of this stuff I can read.

I’ll note that you said the reloads on your ruck waist strap are for when you’re wearing your poncho over your line 2... Won’t your pistol be under the poncho as well?

I'm digging everything my friend, but I'm afraid it may be worse than what your preparing for. I personally think that we will be at war when the lights go out....so for me, a bug out bag would be good to have.....but honestly I believe the stand your ground rule. Besides, where in the hell would you go? It's going to be a blood bath! Nice video, God speed.

Are you sure those mags aren't loaded with dummy rounds????

Hi Bear! Long time no see! Although your combat line gear load-out is a "heavy 55", it is quite awesome and quite the "Cat's Ass" if I may say so myself! The overall thought that went into your gear make-up is most awesome too! I would only hope to assemble to build or put together someday, something almost 3/4 the weight modeled after a scout or patrol type version. Would that challenge you or give you any strange new way of or idea as such to model a different style load-out system?? I know that you are indeed pretty damn hardcore but try and conger up something that could very well suit the lighter alternative that is suggested! The overall makeup of the weight that really tips the scale is perhaps/surely the rife, sidearm, water and radio. Mags n ammo might be pushing 9-11 pounds?? Radio 1.75 lbs? If you had to really scat in an all-fired hurry, a range of 3 miles, you could shave some time quite expeditiously. I hope that Christmas time is all great for you and your family! Great video and once again: "Cat's Ass"!!! Keep up the great work and God Bless!

Thanks for taking the time to make the vid. I do have a question from those of us that are uninitiated and not tacticool. When would a plate carrier be utilized? Is that a different line?
