Oh $*#@ bag, do you have one?
Hehe, my partner will not learn the AR or any of my rifles, just isn't comfortable with them. So I got him a Mossberg 500, tossed a pistol grip, ghost rings, and shorter slide grip on it, now all he has to do is point, and pull the trigger. I load it up with #4 buckshot, there is very little he is going to miss down a hallway or in a bedroom with that.

Gen 1 is like a camcorder's night vision mode. I can't imagine you being able to see too far with those. Especially without an IR illuminator. Do you have a head/helmet mount for it, or do you have to just hold it up to your eye?
Personally I think the ultimate "oh **** bag" would be having Chuck Norris in the trunk of your car. Only thing is how could you build a trunk strong enough to contain him? 
plays well with others

Also, for a bag for this purpose, you are going to want a backpack. Not a shoulder (messenger type) or duffel bag. A backpack will distribute the load WAY better.
btw, a great waterproof container, especially for a first aid kit is a nalgene bottle.

From experience, some food for thought:
If you're gonna bug out, you gotta have a place to go to; no point trading your house for ???
It's easier to defend your castle if you have at least 4 people with you. 6 is preferable, but 4 will work.
6 people can defend against 20-ish looter types.
How much can you carry?
For how long?
If you have kids, you're going somewhere slowly.
If you have a whiney wife/partner, nowhere, fast.
How proficient are you with your weapon(s)?
I'm talking about stress/real world shooting, not punching holes in paper.
You need to be putting rounds down range monthly to maintain any form of marksmanship.
How robust are you?
Can you do what is necessary to survive and/or support your dependents?
There's a lot more to think about, but you get the idea.

Just a hold up unit, for quick references. I tend to have pretty good night sight so I only need to take references once in a while.

Exactly! !
An emergency bag for most BAIC types would consist o the following:
-small/medium day pack
- 2-4 quarts water.
- box of cliff bar type food bars.
- 2-4 pairs of socks and undies.
- light jacket/wind breaker.
- small flashlight. ...or fleshlight.
-pistol, 50 rnds of ammo, and rig.
- whale ***** if you're ryball.
Remember, you're most likely gonna be away from your house, so you're primary mission is to get back to safety and/or loved ones.
This means travel light, travel fast, and avoid trouble.

yeah still plenty of California Yellowtail and Albacores here, I spent a good chunk of my youth on fishing boats out of San Pedro bringing them in, I can def think of alot worse ways to spend a Zombie/Meteor/Monkey Rage apocolypse 
Yeah one of these will last us a while, better than rat and pigeon BBQ on land!

High speed, low drag = good, a compliment. "His **** is so squared away, he's high speed, low drag."
Low speed, high drag = insult, a derogatory epithet similar in vulgarity to The N Word when used in reference to any member of a combat arms outfit.
"I knocked that mother ****ers teeth out for calling me LS,HD".

I'd just pack more food with them in mind rather than having separate food for them which would take up space.

San Pedro, California is the Croatian capitol of the West Coast. There are a TON of Croats there, so if you want to meet hot chicks, go to San Pedro, especially during one of the Croatian festivals... Croatian chicks are SMOKING HOT!
That has nothing to do with survival, but could be related to procreation, so I guess if you look really hard you can see "Hot chick" as a form of survival since you are more likely to bone a hot chick without a condom (because who wants a condom separating your D from a hot chicks nana?!) which could refer to procreation and keeping the human race going for generations to come!
hahahha!
