Ok, so I am involved in a "high risk" sport that we all enjoy here (gun shooting) and more than once I have heard instructors or experienced people (Pat Rogers comes to mind) say that it is stupid to be shooting without some kind of trauma kit. (Lest you are wondering, I heard Pat say this via DVD). So, I am wondering if all the INGO experts could share with me their knowledge about what they put in their "tactical first aid kit" and then what they put that kit in.
I am looking to put together a kit that would handle a range-type accident and could be thrown into a range bag, but also something that could be used/carried apart from a range bag for use in the event of a general, serious accident or firearm injury that was intentionally inflicted (read: perp shot me or I shot him [preferably the latter]).
Some basic things come to mind:
tourniquet (or 2) (what type is best?)
medical gloves
bandages
some kind of blood clotting agent (what method is best, powder or treated
bandages?)
etc, etc, etc.
Could you guys help me fill in some etc's? Thanks.
