I came across this bag and HIGHLY recommend it. Much better than my previous, and it really holds everything I could ever need while waiting for EMS to arrive on a scene.

Hope you enjoy the video review!

I'd show mine.. But then I'd start to get harassed. Though, when I was 16; the age I became an EMT. I sold a garden railroad set, G Gauge, to buy a few things. Among them, was one of those kits like you have, though pre-stocked, and orange. It was good for a few years, then it began to dye everything, including the floor of my SUV at the time, orange. Had to go. Now I use a Red, Pacific A200.

Yup we sure did harass you about your zombie bag. :P:lol:

If only I could understand why bags with cool pouches and tonnes of gear you will probably not "legally" use continue to be so pervasive among the culture of EMS?

The same reason newbs insist on having 15 different items hanging off their belts.

I worked with a young medic years ago who had a duty belt that weighed 37 pounds with all his equipment hanging on it. You know the type. 5 different kinds of shears & hemostats, 2 glove pouches and holster with center punch seatbelt cutter mini mag lite. another holster with a "C cell maglight and electrical cable cutters, 5 pens and 2 different EMS guides, rolls of tape and a trauma dressing pack.

I'd get a hernia toting all that stuff on my belt.

My own trauma/ first response kit is a plano box that I've had for 30 years. It's not a big 747 , just a nice small tackle box that has lasted all these years. Yes: It's not cool, but holds all I need until the truck get's to me.

I roll with a kit that is pretty similar to the OP, only not that nice. I only carry shears, multi-tool pocket knife and pulse ox on my belt. I have tape on my stethoscope and 2" roll of saran wrap on a carabiner.

dude where can i get those seperate pouches. Ive been looking across Galls last half hour trying to find your bag. Its olny a 10$ increase from the bag I received yesterday

They were sold as "Organizer Modules". I use those pouches in our MCI bag, each one has certain items, and all of them are the same. Makes triage quick and easy, IMO. Or at least that's a theory. And it must be a good one, because I see now they have vacuum sealed pouches of little bits of stuff to go into similar MCI kits. If only I could sell my ideas.

Dyna Med sold the modules separate from the bag, and Dyna-Med no longer exists as a company separate from Galls. Galls doesn't sell them. Now I went out of my way and called Galls to confirm that sooo... just sayin'..

Plano sold unequipped medic boxes. Large was the 747, small(er) was the 727. Which was yours, island EMT?
