    First Aid kit for GO bag

    For my birthday my wife bought me a membership for the local pistol range and my parents bought me a maxpedition bag.

    So with the maxpedition/range bag I've been pondering what all I should add to the bag. The obvious additions would be the Maxpedition CCW holster, the Maxpedition EDC Pocket Organizer (filled with notepads, Strider SNG, pens, pencils, and a Streamlight Penlight), my eyes and ears, 550 cord, and a magazine holder.

    The last part that I've decided to add to the bag is a first aid kit that I've pieced together myself. So I bought the Maxpedition Individual First Aid pouch. This great little pouch unfortunately comes empty, so I'm curious as to what all I should add to it.

    With that said, please add to or replace any items that I've listed as what I plan on putting in my first aid kit:

    Consider adding these:

    3M Steri-Strip Elastic Skin Closures
    After Bite
    Temparin Temporary Filling Material
    Uncle Bill's Tweezers

    Maybe not first aid, but should be in your pack somewhere:

    Sunscreen
    DEET-based insect repellent
