Hey kings, is there a trauma kit any of you might recommend to someone on a budget around 130$?

2019-11-10 20:53:14 UTC  

Not that I can think of, but I can tell you that you can find decent trauma kits for good prices at surplus stores and on the internet

2019-11-10 20:53:30 UTC  

You'll want materials included that can deal with gunshot wounds, of course, just start there

2019-11-10 20:54:21 UTC  

Didn't even think about checking a surplus store, but i'll check a few out and see what i find. Thanks m8

2019-11-10 20:55:06 UTC  

Small IFAK or a full blown EMS-style kit?

2019-11-10 20:56:09 UTC  

Honestly it's relatively easy to make your own

2019-11-10 20:56:19 UTC  

Or customize one

2019-11-10 20:56:23 UTC  

Yeah

2019-11-10 20:56:45 UTC  

Benefit of havin emts for friends

2019-11-10 20:57:19 UTC  

I just have a cheap $30 kit I keep in my car, but no tourniquets

2019-11-10 20:57:34 UTC  

A belt works in a pinch

2019-11-10 20:57:47 UTC  

Looked into a few IFAK's (particularly the LAS elite M-3), but if im gonna spend the money i might as well go all out like Merc mentioned and make my own kit

2019-11-10 20:58:18 UTC  

Yeah, and if you're hella stacked you can cop yourself a personal AED

2019-11-10 20:58:22 UTC  

I just rock a standard one and I have a buddy bag that I'm working on

2019-11-10 20:58:46 UTC  

(Trying to become a paramedic)

2019-11-10 20:59:01 UTC  

Paramedics are such a thankless service

2019-11-10 20:59:12 UTC  

Ot be like that

2019-11-10 20:59:13 UTC  

It

2019-11-10 20:59:57 UTC  

Anyone can shoot n scoot

2019-11-10 21:00:01 UTC  

i take it you're already doing the class work and everything?

2019-11-10 21:00:13 UTC  

One minute you're helping a drunk nigga, next minute you're trying to piece together a guy that was flung outside his car in a crash

2019-11-10 21:00:16 UTC  

Nah about to start once I get settled

2019-11-10 21:00:40 UTC  

But I have a crash course in first aid and cls

2019-11-10 21:00:56 UTC  

I should take a CPR course honestly

2019-11-10 21:01:01 UTC  

Yes

2019-11-10 21:01:24 UTC  

Wanted to become a lifeguard but now I work for an airline so idk

2019-11-10 21:01:37 UTC  

Still just useful shit to know

2019-11-10 21:01:43 UTC  

Ye definitely

2019-11-10 21:01:58 UTC  

^

2019-11-10 21:02:05 UTC  

Idc if I ever use it or not, rather know what to do in case

2019-11-10 21:02:37 UTC  

Especially if you live in a cucked city where terrorist attacks are "part and parcel" for a big city

2019-11-10 21:02:46 UTC  

(Side note, by no means am I high speed)

2019-11-10 21:02:50 UTC  

This is where i get to unironically say "knowledge is power"

2019-11-10 21:02:59 UTC  

Nah it really

2019-11-10 21:03:00 UTC  

Is

2019-11-10 21:03:12 UTC  

It's wisdom that matters really

2019-11-10 21:03:17 UTC  

You're not wrong

2019-11-10 21:03:17 UTC  

Yes

2019-11-10 21:03:17 UTC  

It's the application of knowledge

2019-11-10 21:03:39 UTC  

Jack of all trades master of none n all that

2019-11-10 21:03:58 UTC  

As long as you know shit that's good
