Jomax 0 Posted June 26, 2014 I have a simple first aid kit in my truck. I really need to start a BOB. Being I have a full size. I'll probably go big. I always have 5 guys in the truck so extra of everything is probably needed. Do you guys recommend buying a first aid kit or piecing it together? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
91AzXJ 2 Posted June 27, 2014 I like piecing it together, you end up replacing a lot of it every year anyway because of the heat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty close to mine, but I tend to carry a little more Ammo, Magazines, 6 quickClot, 3 TQ kits, and 6 of the obligatory Single dose Narcan nose spray. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
