RECOILtv Mail Call: Mystery Ranch RATS (Rapid Access Trauma System) Pack

In this installment of RECOILtv's Mail Call, we join host Billy Birdzell as he profiles a RATS pack from Mystery Ranch. Often in emergency situations, there's more of a need for medical knowledge and gear, over your trusty sidearm. While being prepared for use of both is a wise decision, the ability to immediately render care in an emergency situation is a skillset worth its weight in gold. The Rapid Access Trauma System (RATS) frontline medic bag from Mystery Ranch is designed for quick, one-handed access to important medical supplies. Being able to deploy emergency care quickly is essential to success when it comes to trauma, and this pack holds everything from gauze to tourniquets, IV kits, individual pack kits within, and even more abundant gauze (You can never have too much!). With water resistant materials, Futura Frame System, and its 23L size, this pack is mobile enough to carry comfortably all day long, but suitable enough to handle a wide range of trauma scenarios. Being prepared is the first step to making it through some hairy situations, and this rig by Mystery Ranch goes a long way to getting your gear adequately prepared for whatever scenario you find yourself running into.
