Alright I'm off to bed. Farewell <:salut:730846445732888630>

2020-11-04 07:11:49 UTC  

Farewell! And thank you!

Also why condoms, facepaint and condiments-

2020-11-04 11:44:28 UTC  

Condoms can be used for water storage or spicy moments. Idk I asked him which it was for and he never responded x]

2020-11-04 11:44:51 UTC  

Facepaint for camouflage just in case you need to do guerilla warfare I'm assuming

2020-11-04 11:44:58 UTC  

And condiments for food

2020-11-04 11:45:22 UTC  

Just a pleasure item so you don't have to eat bland meat.

the machete is for cutting brush as well as if I need it for defense

2020-11-06 19:03:46 UTC  

Only prepping I do is to prepare for defending my city from domestic and foreign threats

Hey hunter

2020-11-06 20:24:11 UTC  

Hi Hunter

2020-11-06 20:24:46 UTC  

Did you fail nnn to

2020-11-09 18:00:17 UTC  

Guys what do you think lifestraw or mini sawyer

2020-11-09 18:00:49 UTC  

I heard the lifestraw can be harder to drink through but then I also heard it wasn't

2020-11-09 18:05:16 UTC  

A mini sawyer is really good

2020-11-09 18:05:26 UTC  

Used one on a camping trip

2020-11-09 18:07:57 UTC  

I got one instead of the lifestraw because someone said lifestraw was difficult to suck through, but then I heard that wasn't true. The smaller size of the sawyer suits me better though anyway

2020-11-09 18:13:50 UTC  

It was easy for me to use and it is compact.

2020-11-09 23:17:05 UTC  

@Nope both are good, i use a sawyer to fill my camelbak but reimbor they only filter so much

2020-11-09 23:17:29 UTC  

Sawyer mini also comes with a straw so its the better buy

2020-11-09 23:17:59 UTC  

But they dont filter chemicals, salt, or viruses

2020-11-09 23:18:17 UTC  

Youd need a reverce osmosis filter (aka a still) to do that

2020-11-09 23:20:15 UTC  

The lifestraw doesn't do anything more than the mini sawyer though, correct?

2020-11-09 23:20:47 UTC  

Nah, they do basicly the same thing

2020-11-09 23:21:09 UTC  

Eithor is a good choice but id recomend the sawyer at the same price

2020-11-09 23:21:22 UTC  

The lifestraw water bottles are cool as well

2020-11-09 23:21:39 UTC  

But require carbon filters that wear out faster

2020-11-09 23:21:48 UTC  

Ah I see

2020-11-09 23:22:02 UTC  

I've thought about getting the water bottle one by never did

2020-11-09 23:22:39 UTC  

Ive got one and it works good

2020-11-09 23:23:18 UTC  

Only thing is to reimbor, a lifestraw or sawyer will not change the taiste of the water

2020-11-09 23:25:12 UTC  

The best collections places are springs, rain/puddles. Ponds/lakes are the worst and rivers/streams are OK as long as theres nothing bad upstream

2020-11-09 23:25:47 UTC  

Wellwater is actually best because its usially already pretty clean

2020-11-12 14:22:57 UTC  

What would y’all five essential item be for this? In the present day, leaving everything behind and becoming a mountain man. Very limited outside exposure say one day every 2-3 months to restock.

Mine would be:
Cap&ball muzzle loader in .54 cal (ball, shot, powder, and caps.
My trusty handmade knife
Metal pot (alum 1 gal)
Flint & steel (modern stick and striker)
Hatchet

Assuming I have a base camp of some sort and am not overly rounds-limited, these are my five.
1) 12ga. shotty (preferably parkerized) with 22lr adapter for small game, small cleaning kit, appropriate tools for gun, as much ammo as I can get to base camp. Ammo could be disassembled and used to start fires in shtf, although it may also be easier to get a set of rubbing sticks.
2) A good ol' ka-bar and appropriate items for maintenance (whetstone, oil, rags) I ofc prefer a good, properly heat-treated stainless blade but I would likely replace the pommel with a carbon-steel pommel as that can be struck against a quartz rock to produce a decent spark. It's not quite a ferro rod, but it works.
3) Steel Pot (AL is nice for rucking/backpacking, but it doesn't last forever. I am going on the assumption that this is some Revelations 6 type shit where "Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and everyone else, both slave and free, hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains," so I intend to stay for a hot minute.)
4) As much cordage as I can get my hands on.
5) My Bible. I think God would be the only thing to keep me sane if I was alone in the woods indefinitely.

2020-11-12 14:46:04 UTC  

That fifth one is always a good idea.

2020-11-12 14:46:25 UTC  

If you only have one thing to read, read something that will teach you new ideas every time.

2020-11-12 14:46:41 UTC  

indeed. it is one of the few heavy items I will carry despite SAWC.

2020-11-12 18:21:36 UTC  

AK over a muzzleloader tbh

2020-11-12 18:22:23 UTC  

Muzzleloaders are heavy, innacurite, powder gets wet and ruined, also large and inconvient
