Sorry, I couldn't watch it. I scanned just a bit of the link and it had first aid kits, knives and shit.
In survival mode I got a Mossberg 500, I'll just fucking take what I need.
Oh, you mean lost in the wilderness survival mode? I'll just fucking kill enough shit to survive.

He just has a shotgun with doodads on it. I bet I would outdo his ass with a simple Marlin in .30-30 or some shit.
If you guys are interested in outdoor survival, I've actually done quite a bit of the stuff. Nothing terribly formal, but I have disappeared for lengths of time with very little equipment, so I know what works and doesn't. Not to mention the trapping, fishing, etc, I learned growing up.
It could be a fun thread.

i know a guy that keep this with him. Plenty of room inside the tube for stuff and it's easy to grab in a pinch.

To be honest a small backpack and my taurus raging judge would be a better survival setup then what this guy is doing, although it would in a sense be more to carry its easier to carry. Trekking around a shotgun is not as easy as people think and its easy to leave it or drop it somewhere if an animal startled him. His setup is useless if he came across any decent sized animal, his bird shot will not kill a bear or mountain lion hopefully he could scare them away but animals have been known to get more aggressive after such things.

Apparently he's talking about running out and having one thing to grab, which he chooses is that silly gun. Ol' Creek there seems to think something bad is going to cause him to grab his gun and head for the hills. So he's prepared. I got about a minute into the first video, 30 secs into the second.
If he's done all this, why not have your 'special' gun set aside in your special 'grab for your life' spot along with a backpack of survival tools?
You guys watch that show on one of the Discovery channels about those people who live preparing for the worst?

Why does everyone discount the shotgun as the best survival weapon? If I had only one choice, it would be a shotgun any day of the year. To me this is not rocket science.
As I stated earlier, the shotgun is the gun that really won the West; not the Colt, or the Winchester lever action. It was the shotgun because of its versatility. The fact that he found all those handy niches for packing in survival gear, is an example of being well thought out.

I agree about with the versatility of a shotgun, if I could only have one weapon to do some killing or surviving it would be a 12ga shotgun. I just don't need one turned into a rambo knife to get the job done.
I do own a Mossberg 500, it is not my first shotgun choice though, although my first choice would be a pump gun, just not the Mossberg.
