Mystery Ranch Rapid Access Trauma System (RATS Pack) 

I have a RATS pack that I got from a senior medic prior to me. He took it to Afghanistan back in 14’ as well as numerous training events after. He gave it to me when he left the Army. It’s held together on multiple airborne operations, a 2 month training event in Africa and now my deployment in Afghanistan and its’s held together incredibly well. My most recent use was a few weeks back, treated multiple trauma patients out of it which is one example of many. It provides a capability that most bags do not in the form of space and organization that has quite literally been a life saver. For the other Army Medics reading this here’s a tip. If you are doing a 3-5 day event, you can strap two sustainment pouch’s to it, one on each side. It provided you with everything that you need and nothing that you don’t. Would highly recommend to anybody looking for an upgrade from the standard issue crap.

I usually don’t like things with the name RATS but this is nice

*Don't worry about the bare walls and the echo!* *The sound is great, the lighting is great already... and we're here for the content.*

this new studio reminds me of your old videos! Also you should do a video on Stethoscopes, good companies, what to look for in a good stethoscope, and some suggestions for ones for EMS, not just the one you currently use but maybe a few different ones including that one.

RATS pack > RATS “TQ” Also great review of the pack! I have the HOT RATS I use for my volunteer service. Great pack, big enough to hold a small O2 tank but small enough for the outdoors

Great video Sam! You are by far my favorite RU-vid channel! Always a highlight when you post a new video!

I have this aid bag...one of the best aid bags I've ever had. Used it when I was an us army medic

Congrats on new position at work. keep up the great videos..keep safe.

Just got my ticket to go to a trauma medicine training course. Thank you for inspiring me! (Great vid as always)

Your houses dark interior design looks always cool

This is my Bucked List bag of all time. I love it.

Congratulations for new studio

Looks good , good luck with it !

You have my attention. Great presentation. Semper Fi

RATS usually makes me cringe but THIS is awesome! I‘m really looking forward for the video on what you‘ll carry inside! Congratulations on getting into a leading position! 💪🏼 Keep up the good vids and the good work!

Great video of a great backpack!

Looks like its a great bag, but i’m so in love with the 5.11 Operator ALS, that really can see upsides in this RAtS. Eventhough as aleays great info, and perfectly explained!

Great vid. At $500 definitely high end. Congratulations on work and the new studio.

You cant put price on saving lives.. wait how much.. lol.. great video I'll order one for next deployment

I have finally gotten away from dealing with the typical “it’s broken, figure it out” with supply in the military. Got my own so now all I have to worry about is consumables.

Finally he reviews it !

Just ordered one and I am excited to fill it. Best investment us Medics should make.

Damn, just bought one and was wondering how to fill it. Itching to see ur setup!

I recently pulled out my olds rats pack from my 2012 deployment. Literally the day you posted this video. I think I will be ordering the nice rats w the hitchhiker. I’m looking forward to your setup of it. Do you have a “favorite” aid bag so far?

finally！thats what i want to see！！！！

Got lucky found one for $370. Love it.

👍👍 thank you

Haha, i was just browsing MysteryRanch's catalogue...

New studio!

Awesome pack, love mystery ranch. You mentioned Pre-spiking fluids, is that a thing when y'all respond to a call? When do you spike it?

I rarely comment on RU-vid videos.. but can you do a review of what stethoscopes you recommend. Because online they recommend a 200$ one. But would it even be beneficial to have one as a EMT/Paramedic?

Great video! Did you give any consideration to the ROUS? I can’t find any RU-vid reviews for the ROUS. If so, what was you preference for RATS over ROUS? Just seemed like you might be looking for a bigger bag, but wasn’t sure if the ROUS was too big for your application. As an aside, I thought the Hitchhiker only attaches neatly to the NICE frame.

Any area for hydration?

Have a RATS too, but for me it’s too heavy. It’s empty as heavy as my Chinook TMK is kitted up. Currently I have that Chinook, but I am thinking about a Conterra ALS. Anyone experiences?

me: watches video Yay! me seeing price: sobs That's a really nice pack though.

on the website it has 3 different sizes, what do these sizes refer to?

please do a video of EDC for first aider

It's $500 on their website, is there a place to get it cheaper ?

I can fit 4 500ml Iv bags in each IV pouch, 8 total if needed

Could yo make a TCCC "course" detailed video?

Is there any room for a hydration bladder ?

I’d like to see some pandemic/epidemic videos in the new studio 🤙🏼

I need this pack but I dont know in which way I can get any one can help me

only coyote color not red or black? best regards from Chile.

If you're going to pick one of these up, you'd be an idiot not to use his code.

Don’t say sorry I dint hear any echo

Hello

I know it's a Medic ruck, but the whole time, I kept seeing the combat/tactical potential features of this pack and they are glaringly obvious ( to me, anyway ). I saw the tons of all kinds of built in pockets, pouches , etc.......everywhere. He said "IV sleeves", I saw twin weapons pouches for a tactical shotgun and something like a carbine or SMG ( I thought of a Mossberg 500 .12 gauge pump- action on the right side, and a .30 U.S M1 Carbine or some kind of SBR on the other. He showed the lid pocket, I thought " lid full of loaded mags, another 55 round, .12 gauge tac- bandoleer, and more, all I have to do is reach behind my head ( with room on top to add MOLLE for even more stuff.- ( maybe a Kriss Vektor .45 ACP SMG, folded up with lots of extra mags, silencer, and other goodies; an extra Camel Back Crux or 2 and so-on, all in a 15 liter or so day pack ( also covered with MOLLE, for more goodies, perhaps boxes of ammo and NVGs ). Zipper pocket with a pad on the back of the main compartment? How about "endless, huge well for vacuum sealed ammo, all made with a kitchen food sealer with the rolls of Mylar and labeled with masking tape and Sharpie, plus mag loading tools. It had huge pockets right on the front to hold all kinds of weapons, ammo, gear, and so on. I like to maximize room in my rucks with MOLLE pouches and compression sacks and here, they give me big pouches with big windows so I can see my gear, a big, main compartment for lots of whatever I want ( and I know what to bring and how to pack it, everybody needs all kinds of gear, after all ). I'm talking about a societal collapse, do what you gotta do scenario in this case, though it's combat, tactical, and everyday potential on a real-world battlefield, a combat patrol, tactical, and much well suited general ruck serves this role quite well and is pretty much what I want and fills the bill very nicely in all roles mentioned as well . There's even room for an extra chest rig or 2, already set up with what I want, of course, and perfect for a variety of roles so I need only switch vests, main weapons, maybe pistol belts, maybe add stuff I want, etc....... and I'm ready to, say, switch my sniper gear and weapons ( when I feel my team and I have cleared the area and paved the way as best we can, juggled gear for assault of a loot-spot, and readied ourselves. For example, we want that pharmacy, gun store, Western Auto, Wally World, and so-on, and we've scouted, we've sniped, NVG-scanned the area] so now we're all geared up with plate carriers, high capacity pistols, AKs, SOCOM 16s, SMGs, tactical shotguns, carbines, SBRs, put on the NVGs/ thermographics and whatever. We've armed up, geared up, and ammo'ed up, etc....... as desired. We've set up sniper over-watch, and got the assault team, ready to get in there and dig out those who loot what I want to loot. At this point, we keep the main rucks at the jump-off point with the snipers and spotters, put on the ( very expensive, it's Mystery Ranch after-all, so $175 ) assault pack they make to attach to it ( both would have various roles and loads, depending on what the reason for wearing them is ). Although large amounts of MOLLE, pouches, and so-on, which allows me to customize rucks and gear as I wish is very important to me, there is so much versatility, so many pockets and pouches everywhere to cover all roles very nicely, I could use this as a main ruck and be well pleased. They are even kind enough to give me gigantic drug and med bags ( which are kindly marked ), as well as a big ass trauma kit, plus more, additional MOLLE so I can put U.S.G.I Sustainment Pouches ( which hold lots of everything ), and there are pockets and pouches I haven't even mentioned ( lots of them ). I'd like to have this freakishly expensive ruck and it's stupidly high assault pack ( that's Mystery Ranch for you, imagine what it'd cost in Multicam ), but you couldn't design a ruck worth the cost of this really cool, but stupidly expensive fucker and it's just as dumbly expensive assault ( the reviewer calls it sustainment ) pack. At least writing this post apocalyptic combat novel based around the review of a ruck made some boring work-time, babysitting a crematorium better. Thanks for thinking your pretty-cool-but-no-ruck-is-that-cool med ruck is worth more than an 8-ball of Heroin, Mystery Ranch. It's been fun ;)

Apparently hald of the people commentig here were triggered by the name RATS xD

First

$500 lol ! 5.11 all day for half the price.

500 for a backpack lol. I bet within a year it breaks.

is there a discount on the bag using your code ? also where did you get the patches for your bag, thanks
