It can also double as an emergency bail out kit for a vehicle, once the bolt-hole is abandoned. This kit is not intended for long term survival.
Contents contained in a small olive drab (OD) backpack.
Weight: approx 5.50 kg w/o weapons
approx 9.75 kg w/ weapons

I include a Browning HP-35 and a TMP issue personal survival kit, which is part of their regular issue, in a sealed bag within the capsule. No additional equipment, just what they were already issued in an immediate use condition. The pistol is in a sealed mylar bag oiled with preservatives, two loaded magazines, and two replacement magazine springs.

Hornet and Long Rifle are not interchangeable……. So you have 3 kinds of .22 in your kit and the rifle and pistol ammo are not compatible.
1 Black-widow .22LR back-up pistol, 50 rounds .22LR Magnum JHP ….. absolutely not. A gimmick at best. Dump this and use the weight saved for something else.
1 Short range survival radio, range 10 kms. One channel only.
1 Heavy duty reinforced space blanket, OD on one side, silver on other
1 Light weight OD rain poncho
2 Large heavy duty trash bags . More… these get trashed fast and weigh under 4 oz.
1 Water filter straw
1 Personal MP Issue Survival Kit (see below)
1 Personal first-aid kit (see below)
1 Small collapsible plastic bucket Why?
1 Water storage bladder Why? Unless this holds a significant amount. However, there isn’t a way to purify a significant amount with this kit anyway.
1 OD plastic canteen & canteen cup all that is necessary.
1 OD BDU pants
1 OD tee-shirt
1 OD wool sweater
1 OD wool watch cap
2 Pair grey socks
1 OD light weight wind-breaker
1 Pair black leather gloves, w/ OD liners
4 Boxes of water/ wind proof matches, w/ OD plastic container (one maybe two)
2 Disposable lighters (these fail so much, but their light and I take them anyway.)
1 "Tommy" cooker and 3 boxes, of 25 fuel tablets (one box) I would sub the whole thing for a pot like a “corn boiler” that would boil significantly more water. There isn’t anything that needs to be cooked in the kit anyway.
1 Set KFS (Knife, Fork, Spoon) Why? The MRE has a spoon.
1 Folding pocket knife
1 Knife sharpening stone
20 m of OD para. cord
1 Note pad w/ pen & pencil
1 Signal mirror
1 Signal whistle
1 Small flashlight
1 Folded local map (probably useless with the speed and range of TMP vehicles.)
1 Compass
Toilet paper in sealed plastic bag
2 MRE meals (too bulky, LRRP rations maybe?)
