Ok, perhaps this should be in Bags, although that appears to be more for larger EDC items.
Searching for a new large FAK bag after the zip on my old Subaru Rally Team one busted (thanks Possum, RIP). Want something that has fold out panels on it for flat dressings, decent zippers and material. MOLLE compatible is useful, although not required. Its for storage in the truck, so it doesnt have to be backback EDCable.
There are a ton out there, and heaps almost fit my requirements. Like the 5.11 6.6 has no fold out wings, but has the rest. Condor has wings, but is by all reports pretty shoddily made.
Thoughts on a bag?
Generally responding to automotive accidents, occasionally MVAs but mostly single rollovers or fallen asleep and driven on. Current kit is based on a St John’s off the shelf one with a bunch of added stuff.
This is what it had in there last time i did an inventory*
4 Triangular Bandages 110cm x 110cm
8 Crepe Bandage
4 Heavy Crepe 10cm
2 Combine Pads 20cm x 30cm
2 Combine Pads 10cm x 10cm
6 Non-Adherent Pads 7.5cm x 10cm
1 Burns Sheet
1 Bag Antiseptic Steritube (Bag of 2)
2 Eye Pads Large
12 20mL Saline
1 Hypo-Allergenic Tape 2.5cm x 9m
1 Bag Safety Pins (Bag of 12)
Disposable Splinter Probes (Pkt of 5)
1 Stainless Steel Sharp Forceps
1 Stainless Steel Sharp/Blunt Scissors
1 Emergency Shock Blanket
1 Pkt Paracetamol Tablets (Pkt of 12)
Gloves
1 Disposable Resuscomask
3 Sterile Gauze Swabs 7.5cm x 7.5cm
1 Bag Disposable Towels (Bag of 3)
IV Kit
Intubation Kit
Sterile minor surgery kit
*there is a full inventory in the kit, but thats the last digital one.
My wife is a doctor so we have a small drug kit in there too, plus the IV cannulation stuff/intubation after we came across a single rollover where the lady had a punctured lung and was unconscious.
Also since i posted im now considering the Condor Rip Away EMT Pouch which apparently is better made than their other Medical bag.Have you tried any of the EMS companies? I personally have in my truck a Iron Duck EMS bag very similar to what we carried on the ambulances.
Have a look at the offerings from Conterra Inc. They make some very nice & modular kits.
Also “Check it out two moons
Also “Check it out two moons”.
Hahahaha, i hadnt seen that ad in years, classic one.I had a look at Iron Duck after the recommendation, but most of their bags i think are geared at a fuller kit. Will keep looking through their stuff though.
The Conterra gear is good, the IV kit bag is what we have for the IV lines, only its been rebranded under another company.

I have an Omni-Meret pro and it would fit all of that in it pretty easily.Yeah, would fit it all in with tons of room to spare. Hoping for something relatively slim line.
I have owned the Condor Rip Away EMT Pouch for a while now and really like it. You never know what’s going to happen…so I carry decent FAK with me in my EDC bag. 🙂

I so love the fri-fold design…for easy and fast deployment.
