build the perfect survival kit book

[crossada]

i recently finished reading a book by John D. McCann called Build the perfect survival kit

the book is full of useful ideas for building kits of various sizes from psk to vehicle kits. i really liked this book and recommend it:thumbup:

i can't get the search to work so has anyone else ever read it?

I was just looking at it (had it in my hand) when I was at Borders a couple nights ago getting a copy of the SAS handbook.

It looked really good, but I didn't have the money, so I added to my list to get when I can.

Thanks for the review!! It reinforces that I won't waste my money on a copy. :thumbup:

Wnat to sell yours cheap? just kidding.

thanks cecyt1300 but it's not for sale i think anyone who reads the threads on kits around here would enjoy the book

Great Book, Only problem is it leads to more spending!

There was some other forum I found several months ago that had pictures (links) that you could click on and see exactly what he had listed to carry in each of these packs.

Pretty neat I thought...........just can't remember what forum I found these on..... .......seems like it was a forum where the questions/answers were one after the other in a list.

The reason why I was so excited to find this was because he listed my SOG Revolver, with a pic, as a good knife to carry for one of the survival packs.

Here is one link I found of some of the things, (notice "additional info." area to right.)
