    The next white whale when it comes to gear is an EDC bag. Figured it would be easy to find what I'm looking for, but apparently not so much; my preferences don't exactly go with the norm. Best candidate right now is the HPG Aston House. Runner up is the Aston House BC.

    Been wanting to get a Z-Packs Dyneema 8.5x10 Tarp for a while. Lived outa one of there tents for two months strait, but would love the carry-ability of a 6.4 ounce tarp.

    Have also been looking at single person tents from TarpTent. But will probably only get one of those if/when I have a big trip coming up.

    Eventually a HPG Umlindi will be had as well (hard to justify though as I have a London Bridge 72 hour that I use for the same purpose)

    Would really like a super solid US made folder. Something from DPx, Southern Grind, Houge, or Emerson would fit the bill

    - More cast iron, it’s all we really cook with. Specifically, a Dutch oven.
    - To get drawn for deer and elk this year—rolling old school 54 Cal stink stick/muzzleloader this year.
    - HK P30 9mm for my wife, nice gun and it fits her well.
    - Izula II to round my collection, I’m sure they’ll be more.
    - HPG pack and kit bag for scouting/hunting.
    - Boreal shirt.
    - Gear: complete my med kit (have GI IFAK/mine, Cat Tourniquet, mixed dressings and bandages, trauma shears), bivvy sack, fire starter (ferro rod), titan survivor cord..too much to list.

    I’ve spent my life outside, yet I’m such a newb at this. I’ve always kept a case of water, another jacket, space blanket, woobie and fresh GI MRE’s in my truck. The basics I guess. I’ve learned quite a bit from you guys so my list has grown considerably.
