Organized gear

[Hardshell]

Some of my gear lives neatly organized and some of it just gets piled into a tote. It depends on how rushed I am. How do you pack and store your gear?

What is this "organized gear?"

I go back and forth with organization. I have a duffle bag I keep my truck gun in. It’s an ar15 pistol, so I can conceal it. I hunt with it and it’s handy to have all my gear related to that particular gun and my few hunting extras. Then I go hunting with a friend and I take a stronger rifle and a backpack. Then half my stuff is forgotten in truck. So I get so organized it messes me up. Then I get unorganized real quick. I do the same thing with my tools.

Outfitting a new-to-me pickup truck, I got one of those 'seatback organizers' that is set up for attaching small packs and pouches via mollie straps and/or velcro. So, a med/trauma kit is there, a few different meds, spare loaded mags for the G19 that's always in the truck, a couple of different knives, multi-tool, zip-ties, paracord, binoculars.
In underseat storage I have a plastic ammo can with a variety of ammo for whatever I may need on most given days - .22, 9mm, 10mm, .45, 5.56.
The mounted toolbox has all sorts of recovery gear, tow straps, gloves, camping blanket, MRE's, Sterno stove, inflator, tools, machete, crosscut saw, tarp, etc. Not as neatly organized, but I kinda know where everything is.

My gear is all neat and tidy when it's not hunting season. When the season starts, it all winds up in totes with labels. Doing what works beats being perfect when you don't have much time.

I really harp on this, but if you keep anything firearm related in your vehicle, do not put any pro gun stickers on your vehicle. It’s just a big sign that says come steal my gun.

Not to mention legal jeopardy if you have to end up using a gun in self defense. The prosecutor will claim you were just WAITING to kill someone. "Look at the bumper stickers!"

As crazy as it is, you’re probably right
