    Just wondering how many of you that carry guns every day carry some form of medical. The likelihood of using medical gear is much higher than having to use a gun, but it seems to be overlooked by a lot of people.

    Or maybe I’m just weird. Lol

    I have a complete kit in a green ammo can in my truck on the floor in back of the driver's seat.
    It is marked "FIRST AID" with a cross. It also has a tag that lists when last checked/updated/rotated.
    I do not have a kevlar helmet,plate carrier,or 1000rds of ammo in my truck. --- SAWMAN

    I carry a CAT gen7 tourniquet, H&H compressed gauze, H&H mini compression bandage, Quickclot bleeding control dressing, Hyfin vent compact chest seals (2), and a pair of nitrile gloves.

    I recently started using a Sof T Wide in my pocket because of how small it is compared to the CAT. I backpack carry a CAT Gen 7 as well as leave one in my vehicle.

    I always have an IFAK and First Aid kit in the truck and typically will pocket carry a Cat7 TQ in some fashion.
    Dare I say, I agree with Sawman...we are highly more likely to use these items than spare mags and a "truck gun"

    Since being an AF brat in Germany, I've always carried a First Aid Kit in my vehicles. Hell I even carry a weather/season/regional specific survival kit in my vehicles, you never know when and where you'll break down......
