    Tactical Vehicle Survival and Medical Kit

    The Tactical version of our Vehicle Survival Kit has stealth as a consideration for military personnel, government contractors, and anyone else that would rather not call attention to their survival situation to just anyone. The Tactical Vehicle Survival Kit is loaded with survival and medical tools and equipment, yet manages to keep a small profile so that it does not take up all the space in your vehicle. All of the equipment fits into a water and weather resistant hard shelled dry box manufactured in an ammunition case style, and lockable. The dry box is triple latched for security, with a tongue and groove O-ring design, and contains a built-in compass and reflective bottom for use as a signaling device. The components of the kit address the fundamentals of survival: shelter, water collection and purification, first aid and traumatic bleeding treatment, signaling, and fire starting. So, if you are on mission and moving through not necessarily friendly territory, this is your kit.

  • Sale! WetFire Tinder Pack of 8

    WetFire Tinder Pack of 8

    WetFire Tinder, the perfect accompaniment to any fire starter, can help you get a blaze going even in a downpour. In fact, the cubes actually burn longer when wet!

    WetFire Tinder was born from the need for a universal lighting material that was safe, odorless, easy-to-carry, and unaffected by wind or water. Elite military troops can find themselves anywhere, in any kind of weather. They require something that will light a fire in a rainstorm if needed, yet extinguish instantly to avoid detection, leaving virtually no residue, no odor, no smoke.

    WetFire Tinder is the best fire-starting tinder material available anywhere in the world. It is individually packaged in a lightweight solid cube form that cant leak or foul up your other gear. It leaves none of the residue of inferior petroleum-based products and is non-toxic. The cubes burn without smoke and can be started even in high winds and nasty weather. In fact, the tinder burns while floating in water.

    WetFire Tinder burns at over 1300 degrees yet cools almost instantly when snuffed out. A small pile of shavings is enough to start a campfire, warm your hands, or pre-heat a backpacking stove. Always have some of these cubes available when you go outside.

    While WetFire was developed for military personnel, anyone who needs to start a fire can benefit from this amazing fire starting tinder. For decades, mountain climbers have struggled with gooey fire starting gels to light their stoves at high altitude. Not only messy, these gels are hard to use. At high altitude you have enough to worry about without wasting energy trying to light an uncooperative stove. With WetFire Tinder, this problem is solved. Just sprinkle a small amount of tinder shavings around the backpacker stove, and it lights instantly. No goo, no mess, no hassle.

  • Sale! Thompson Survival Snares 3 Pak and Micro Fishing / Sewing Kit

    Thompson Survival Snares 3 Pak and Micro Fishing / Sewing Kit

    Exclusively at Survival Metrics! The Survival Snares 3 Pak and Micro Fishing / Sewing Kit was designed for us exclusively by Thompson Snares, the trusted leader in snare technology. Inside the kit is essentially everything you need to maximize your potential of catching food in a survival situation. Three snares, plus tie wire and instructions form the land component. A micro fishing kit (which doubles as a sewing kit) provides the water component. All of these tools are enclosed in a heavy duty 6 mil carrying pouch which you can easily pack into any emergency preparation or survival kit.

    CONTENTS:

    SURVIVAL SNARES 3 PAK:

    • (2) 00S-20 Snares
    • (1) 0S-30 Snare

    • Instructions

    • (4) Safety Pins
    • Thompson Snares are made in the USA, and these particular snares are designed to capture small game such as squirrel, weasel, marten and other climbing animals. They are also good for snaring grouse, rabbits or woodchucks. These snares are the ultimate in small snare construction and efficiency. Made of steel cable and steel locks/swivels, they enable a sure-secure trap that significantly out performs typical wire snares. Thompson Snares are also more humane to the animal, because they are less likely to fail like other snares that can injure the animal and allow them to escape. By using Thompson Snares, you give yourself the best advantage in a survival situation, and that can make all the difference.

      The addition of the Micro Fishing and Sewing Kit rounds out this combination package to handle survival food security for both land and water opportunities. Together, they form a comprehensive survival food security kit that is lightweight and compact, but comprehensive enough to handle the vast majority of food opportunities that occur during a typical survival scenario. It is well known that trapping, snaring and fishing are the best methods of securing animal food supplies during a survival scenario. It takes less energy to perform, is easy to manage, and is less dangerous to the survivor than traditional hunting when done properly. Trapping, snaring, and even fishing can be done in a passive manner whereby once you set lines and traps, you need only check them about twice daily; attending to properties such as positioning, bait types, camouflage and of course, harvesting. This saves vital calories during a survival scenario versus hunting, and is usually much more successful at providing food.

      Survival is oftentimes more than just starting a fire, signaling, and staying dry. At some point, you will need to think about food.

      Give yourself the best chance for food security you can by getting the Survival Snares 3 Pak and Micro Fishing / Sewing Kit, exclusively at Survival Metrics!

      WARNING: Use of snares is a regulated activity. Thompson Snares and Survival Metrics are not liable for any customers violation of local, state, or federal regulations. It is the trappers responsibility to comply with all local, state, and federal requirements. International regulations must also be complied with.

    Survival Matches Bulk Tube – NATO

    Sold Out

    These survival matches are the best available, and issued by the British Military to all their service components. Each waterproof sealed vial contains ~25 matches that burn for about 12 seconds each – even if wet!

    Stop buying those cheap, supposedly “Strike Anywhere” matches that barely give you enough burn time to light anything with, and will not light if wet. These matches are time-tested by military forces worldwide as the best anywhere.

    Each waterproof vial comes with their own strikers, so you always have the perfect surface to strike the matches on.

    Now do the math: about 12 seconds per match at about 25 matches per sealed vial = ~300 seconds or ~5 minutes of fire lighting burn time, even under wet conditions. That is a lot of fire starting power in such a small, lightweight vial. Perfect for survival kits, bug out kits, and emergency kits of any kind.

  • Sale! Survival Straps Parachute Cord Survival Bracelets

    Survival Straps Parachute Cord Survival Bracelets

    Sold Out

    Survival StrapsTM are the original, U.S. made survival bracelet. They are hand-constructed from approximately 16 FEET of Seven-Strand, 550 pound test heavy-duty military specification parachute cord. They contain approximately 1.75 of parachute cord for every inch (wrist size) ordered.

    That means that 16 Feet of seven strands, plus the shell, equals about 128 FEET of high-grade nylon cord immediately available for a wide variety of tasks when the inner strands are removed for a variety of applications. In an emergency situation, you can unravel the bracelet and deploy the parachute cord for use. A tough plastic side-release buckle keeps the bracelet on securely, but can be released to deploy the bracelet very quickly. After unbuckling, simply slide out the working ends of cord on the underside of the bracelet, and unravel.

    U.S. Military Forces use these survival bracelets every day, and they are proven to be a vital component of any survival-minded persons gear. Survival experts worldwide suggest that survival tools be carried on the person, not just in their gear or equipment pack. Wearing one of these bracelets ensures that you will be able to utilize the high-grade nylon parachute cord for quick shelter building, snares, repairs, fishing, fist-aid applications (e.g., slings and splints), and much more.

    An “Owners Manual” comes packaged with each bracelet that describes your bracelets features, tips, and how to deploy it.

    Measure First!
    These bracelets are already made and ready to ship to you. Please pay close attention to the sizing: These survival bracelets are intentionally made to be slightly larger than your measured wrist. To measure, use a string to wrap around your lower wrist and then measure the string. (The lower wrist is where the bracelet will fall naturally due to your own wrists movements). If you are in between sizes, use the larger size. Ensure that you measure your wrist prior to order, as exchanges or returns for size issues are not allowed. Note: completely soaking the bracelet in water and drying completely will shrink the bracelet by about one-quarter of an inch.

    Each purchase supports the Wounded Warrior Project!

  • Sale! Ranger Pace Counter

    Ranger Pace Counter

    Ranger Pace Counter: The time-tested way to keep track of distance you’ve traveled in difficult terrain or conditions. Military personnel have used such simple devices for decades as an easy way to keep track of distance traveled during terrain navigation. This becomes essential during night time movement. The beads work by separating them according to a reached pace count to calculate the distance you’ve traveled. (It’s not as hard as it sounds).

    1. Place the beads on an easily reachable but secure place on your equipment, such as a shoulder strap.

    2. Find your pace count(s): The average used is 65 paces on flat terrain for 100 meters. However, you will want to know your own pace count. A “pace” is counted by every time your left foot strikes the ground while walking at a reasonable stride. (Yes, you can use your right foot if you prefer).

    • Measure out 100 meters on flat terrain.
    • Walk this distance counting your paces (again, every time your left foot strikes the ground).
    • The number you reach at the end of 100 meters is your pace count for 100 meters of flat terrain.
    • It is suggested that you get your pace count in several ways: 1) flat terrain, lightly equipped; 2) flat terrain, heavy equipped; 3) medium-steep terrain, lightly equipped, and; 4) medium-steep terrain, heavy equipped. Thus, 4 pace counts are made under these conditions. (Very steep terrain tends not to work well with pace counting). Remember your pace count for each.
    • As you age or your physical condition changes, your pace count will likely change as well.

    3. Using the Pace Counter:

    • Pull all of the beads in the up position.
    • The bottom half of the pace counter has 9 beads. Each of these 9 beads represents 100 meters.
    • When your pace count for the terrain you are on reaches the mark for 100 meters, draw down one bead from the bottom half of the pace counter.
    • When all 9 beads are down, you have traveled 900 meters.
    • The top half of the pace counter has 4 beads. Each of these beads represents 1,000 meters (1 kilometer).
    • Thus, after you have traveled 900 meters, and all of the bottom 9 beads are down, the next 100 meters traveled will be 1,000 meters of travel (1 kilometer). When that mark is reached, you pull one of the top beads down to mark the 1 kilometer of distance traveled, and pull the bottom 9 beads back to their up position.
    • Continue to do this process until all 4 top beads are down, representing 4 kilometers of travel, and repeat the process by moving all of the beads back to their up position.
    • Now, the only number you need to keep in your head is the total kilometers traveled after the sequence is complete (4k, 8k, etc.)
    • NOTE: Some use the technique whereby the down and up position of the beads is used to determine whether you are on the first set (4k) or second set (8k) — and variations of this. Whatever the method you choose, the beads will enable you to keep very few numbers in your head while you continue to travel, while maintaining an accurate pace count related to distance traveled.
    • ALSO NOTE: This method is best used in conjunction with a topographical map. If your map is in “standard” or English / Imperial measurement (feet/miles, etc.) then be sure to know the conversion between metric and English, or, perform your pace count measurements in the format best used in conjunction with your maps.
    • FINAL NOTE: This method works best on direct azimuth traveling (straight line distances). If changing direction, it is best to mark the position on your map where you change direction in order to not only measure the distance traveled, but where you are precisely in relation to your map. It will not help you much to perform pace counts while traveling in variable directions without notating the changes on your map.
