Outdoors, Hunting, Bushcraft, Rifleman's Belt Kit 

Ugly gun. Scope's in the wrong place. Bbl is too short.

Finally something normal. Getting a little tired of everything being paramilitary. good, classic, solid hunting kit. That leather belt is awesome.

Great set up.

Old school Police speed loaders pouches might fit that extra capacity wheel gun. Can even get them to match I’ve seen tan basket weave not just black

You’re really the only person out here showing anything about a scout rifle “loadout” and I think it’s awesome. Your tastes really shine through in the gear you’ve chosen and all I can say is: classy.

OMG, a. Puma White Hunter. I bought mine when I was 14 and in Boy Scouts. I’m 73 now and it is still one of my most priceless possessions. Best steel ever made. So good to see someone else carry one.

Good set up. I know I'm late to the party but wanted to add my 2 cents. If someone has budgetary constraints and can't afford the high quality leather goods you have, an Army surplus store is a decent alternative. The grenade pouches for both the old school LBEs and modern molle gear fit the polymer 10 rd Ruger GSR (AICS) mags and Savage Scout Model 11 mags perfectly. With all the available admin/fist aid/gp pouches available you can get a durable, functional rig for fairly cheap. Hope that helps somebody. Have a good one.

Each time you drew that wheel gun, you deliberately opened / proved that cylinder clear! Much respect. Thanks for the super ideas!

Thanks your comment on pistol holster flap to protect from snow and dust. I have an inexpensive chest holster thinking Alaskan fishing. It doesn’t have a cover.

I would suggest that you carry a water container with nesting metal cup, a poncho, and an IFAK! Sometimes animals don't cooperate and you have to track/trail them for a while which means that you might have a hard time finding your pack because of darkness or sudden foul weather, etc. If these add too much weight, just add a set of suspenders! Thanks for the video!

Puma knives are an under appreciated asset in this world of wonder steel. I have had one for years, love it!

You have definitely given your kit a lot of thought. This is definitely one of the best "woodcraft" videos that I have seen. Thank you for being "practical" and not "tactical". I'm a big fan of the scout rifle, too.

I'm a little late to the party but a little baggie and some purification tablets seem like they'd slip tight in that pouch too. Always a good idea to have that option even if it is unlikely you'll ever need it

Nice job Don. Well thought out. The Colonel would have enjoyed this video because it considers the question, "What is we're trying to do here.

Please, put the bullets for each weapon separately, it will help a lot in a difficult situation, without any other type of ammunition or things, separated, rifle - rifle ammunition bag, revolver - revolver ammunition bag, maybe it is more weight , but the order helps a lot, also the things to start a fire and the first aid kit, they need their one and exclusive place.bag.pouch, I think they still call it discipline, but I don't know, I'm old.

3:35 : camera man get hit by the bullet *camera man proceed to move his position to not get hit again 3:41 : camera man get hit again

Fantastic video! Good to see all that beautiful leather. Thanks for all the information - looking to get into hunting myself, never did as a kid, but I need an escape!

I really like the jacket you put on at the end. Can you tell me about it?

Common Sense Belt, and accessories for the woods, be safe but you Are!!...👍

Great setup! I really enjoy my Ruger Gunsite Scout. Looks like you use yours.

I like to have a blade and side arm set up just like that. That way if you get pinned down by a boar or bear you can use your free hand to grab a sidearm.

That's a great rig. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your gun handling. You have developed the reflex to chamber check your firearm every time you unholster it. Nicely done, young man. RESPECT!

You have a fantastic setup sir.

I like this setup when i bushcraft i wear suspenders to keep my pants up and a belt setup with knife ferro rod and a buckskin pouch with tinder and a tomahawk

Прекрасно бро сколько стоит общий комплект и эта винтовка mossberg скаут класс бро. 👍👍👍👍

This guy has an undeniable badass factor.

Hey man, just wanted to say that your vids inspired me to go down the scout rifle rabbit hole. Picked up my GSR last week!

Just a thought but I'm surprised you don't have a flap holster for your 1911

Nice kit. I got my Puma 60+ years ago and love it. Suggestions: load the spare magazine, add a candle to the pouch, and add an SOL large survival blanket. 50+ years ago, in the Army, we always had a poncho on our belt in the back. It felt good in the small of the back and had many uses. Some paracord would be nice too. Good Luck, Rick

Nice load out, very efficient and versatile.

Bro I LOVE this set up. Love the classy leather look. So sick of tactical crap. Makes me want to build an outdoor belt kit!

great video. You definitely need a knife, handgun, matches, lighters, and extra ammo for the pouch. It is for sure useful in the outdoors or for a hunting trip.

Ironically I am not partial to leather. I did enjoy your scout optic review.

I like the idea of a dedicated gun belt , this doesn't interfere with using your binos or transition to the rifle for shooting and you can put this over coveralls or jacket , good review

I really like this set up. Thank you for posting the video.

this is probably the coolest setup i have ever seen, unfortunately we cant do awesome stuff like this in europe

Nice belt setup been looking for a good woods/hunting belt.

1:47 I find that alcohol prep pads are much better than lens wipes for that purpose.

This man’s drip is unmatched

Flap holsters are for real use 👍

Simple, reliable, trustworthy and efficient out school style, i always have a first aid kit of some sort,I don't hunt but a tourniquet would be good as with that belt you could and probably have had one on it.

Parabéns pelo vídeo e pelo trabalho você tem um bom gosto.

Not gonna lie man but that is a pimp ass set up I love the old school leather look more so than the tactical look I have a diamond d custom chest holster for my colt 1911 with a anza knife with leather sheath strapped to it

Wonderful to see a Puma belt knife. I inherited one made in the 60’s and it’s a classy option for sure. 1st class belt rig !

Interesting belt setup!

Love the rain jacket. Brand/model/

You can carry 10 round of 357 on a sks stripper clip

Nice set up. Scout Rifle, Wheel Gun, Auto Messer, and Wool clothes will never let you down.

I like it, similar to mine except I am an old f*t f*&k so I added some Y strap suspenders (surplus Czech) that match the leather. 308 Mauser scout, strippers and a Ruger 357.

I would hate to come up against this guy in a gun fight, this man is ready for game or human.

Nice. Just need a Pith helmet Old chap and a pewter whiskey flask. Cheers

Good setup. I hunted elk in central Montana for forty years, and I carried a Buck folding hunter, a leather pouch with 16-18 rounds of 30-o6 Springfield, a small pouch with matches in waterproof case, plastic baler twine, some plastic survey ribbon, and no pistol on my belt. The baler twine was useful for holding an animals rear legs open (in timber) to help with gutting. I also carried some absorbent white rags inside my inner-most shirt. Never used a backpack, although I did use a fanny pack, occasionally, if it was really cold with lots of snow.

Who makes the holster for revolver

What action is the scout? Is it custom or off the rack with mods? .......

Fancier than a surplus alice kit, since we all know leather stuff is AWESOME. But the alice kit would be a good budget setup alt to this. Im definitely checking out this companys leatherworks, looks amazing and quality with that old school leather aesthetic. Forgive me if i copy your kit lol but it’s EXACTLY what I was looking for

I believe that's the Särmä TST L4 Recon Smock, not the Särmä Windproof Smock

I wanna be like this man when I grow up (I’m 27)

I am a long time back woods wanderer - and find the older i get the more, I start looking at more traditional materials. Along with ways to simplify my loadouts & kit - Nice set up & thanks for sharing 🎉

Good job Don. Thoroughly developed, reconfigured in a minute. Be Well.

This makes me smile, when I started hunting back in the late 70's I used a hunter brand leather belt and their leather cartridge box (loaded with a few essentials). Also carried my sheath knife and leather ammo loops. I still used a small day pack for the other gear but that leather belt was always on! Walking into the local 7-11 near the hunting zone with my gear belt on was always good for a few laughs...

Very nice job! I really like the way your equipment is carried. Great job on the video.

what revolver is that??

No matter how you set it up, understand and train with your equipment. Nice setup Scout.

What revolver is that? I first thought a S&W 329 but that isn't a moonclip 8 shot revolver. It was only a brief moment but it looked like a Scandium frame, titanium cyclinder with about a 4" barrel.

Is that a Puma White Hunter?

the male fantasy

Do you still have that rifle?

nice work brother

Great Vids! How is the weight of the belt with your gear? (I know your revolver is extremely light!)

Just want to say... More Vids, CHOP CHOP

in urgent, U can not drew your Puma out!?

Jeff Coopers ghost approves of this video.

You seem like a good dude. Glad I found your channel!

Beautiful setup & lovely weapons. Looks high quality and robust.

In your bag, do you have something for water and wounds?

what kind of knife sharpener?

How much did you size up your belt from your normal belt size?? Looking to make a setup very similar to this!

Very nice. Well thought out and adaptable. I really like your jacket too.

Love the flat cap. I wore a tweed patchy cap with my camo hunting clothing for my elk hunt last year. Ran across some other hunters who looked at me like I was from Mars. I’m sure they were laughing at me, when they were just as funny to me as I was to them.

A lot depends on what you are hunting and where. I hunt whitetails in Northwest Georgia. Old age has caught up with me (74) so I have had to change the way I hunt. The packing in on horseback or the long trek through the mountainous area I hunt no longer is an option. But I do have my "hunting belt" ready to go at all times. It's just not as well equipped. It's simply a knife, two speed loaders, and my .357. I wear a light weight outdoor sports vest with numerous pockets for all other essentials. My rifle (Ruger Gunsite Scout) holds 5 rounds and has an 8 round pouch on the stock. The rifle came with a 10 round magazine, but I have not used it in years now. In the vest, I carry another 5 round magazine for it. Since my health issues prevent me from doing much hiking and the probability or running across large predators, my only change on the belt is the absence of the speed loaders for my .357 and the addition of a machete and different handgun and ammo pouch.. When warm weather hiking I carry a Taurus Judge so I have a pouch with dividers for the .410 shells of various shot sizes and the .45 Colt ammo. I really liked your video though. Although we do things slightly differently, we definitely think alike when it comes to practicality and necessity.

Excellent setup. Clean, simple, well thought out and effective. Great video!

Don was an instructor of mine many years ago at an outdoors skills camp. He's a wealth of knowledge and definitely worth watching. I also run a belt kit for hunting and mine is set up in a similar fashion.

cool setup, I use something similar myself when out hunting. Though due to the weight of what you carry I do recommend to update your belt with a shoulder strap or change to a classic leather Sam Browne belt from the military which will emprove the comfort and weight distribution a lot!

Old school! I suspect Jeff Cooper would approve of that rig.

I carry a LCP Max (13 shots and night sights) loaded with 380+P XTP at all times. If i'm out and about on my homestead (vids on my channel for anyone into that sort of content) and want something more, I have a 10.5" AR with a CMMG Bravo .22LR conversion kit. This makes the gun super versatile and it is already super light and handy. If I have the 5.56mm bolt in it I keep it loaded with 55gr gold dots, and with the .22LR bolt I keep it loaded with CCI Velocitors. The sling has a compass on it, and I have a bottle opener for emergency shell extraction paracorded to the sling. I keep a Spyderco endura 4 folding knife on my person, along with a plasma lighter, a tube of chapstick (great multipurpose item), and a spare mag for the 380.

The knife looks like Puma big game hunter knife , very good steel only fault is the bonehandle , you will get blisters ,

100% Everyman kit. I dig that.

Better have additional pouch to separate ammo from other accessories and add also a suspender for the belt!

But above all else it just feels cool to have a big iron on your hip

1:55 I’d add a second cartridge box kit that rides above the small of the back. Into it I’d place either an emergency poncho & hexamine fire tablets or a Cat3 tourniquet and hexamine fire tablets

Nice set up. I have a similar rig with some different pouches. Modularity is the key to the whole belt carry. I carry an N frame myself, what brand is the flap holster? Also, have you ever had any issues with the snaps unsnapping from the larger pouch while in the woods?

I’m 3 years late but that is a pretty slick belt setup. I like your rifle too, although my eyesight is such that an LPVO works better for me. But I can tell that you’ve put some thought into your choices.

Awesome 👌 your just missing suspenders to your belt, really spreads the load out

oohhh they're snap caps! lol i fr thought that those were 410 shells and i was thinkin to myself "weird, i've never seen a bolt action scout style rifle that is chambered in 410…" 😬😬😬

Perfect! How about the skid and travel with meat store and cook?

I dig it man. Very dope setup and now I want such a belt. Subbed.

Thank you. Most ppl are going to tactical these days funny like hiker hunter/ Rambo not so much practicality. What revolver are you carrying and the parka jacket was awesome what kind was it?

Wish you'd do a bit more content on this belt setup in the field location.

One suggestion water bottle pouch with water bottle metal and nesting cup that bottle can fit in look at the path finder pathfinder bottle kit or a old school western style canteen

You have enough space on that belt, there should be a basic first aid kit on you as well.
