Sorry for the late, late reply, but I just noticed your comment. I'm afraid Nanolube is only available online. I consider it a "secret weapon", and a lot of people don't like giving away their secrets. There are two competing products, and inventors, and both have a fuzzy grasp of names that should have been trademarked. I buy my lube from http://www.diamondlube.com/. Get the smallest size, and give it a try, especially on stainless-on-stainless applications.
While confessing to my shortcomings, I have to admit that I missed most of September, which celebrated National Preparedness Month. I completed the rebuild of my bailout bag with a new, slightly bigger Maxpedition bag. It's a bit heavy, but it has everything the government recommends, along with extra supplies for cold/wet weather, which is always a consideration in the cold, soggy (10 inches more rain than normal this summer) Midwest.
I must admit that the government documents made no mention of weaponry, but I'll write that off on sloppy editing. I had a spare 9mm in the bag previously, but I recognized that I have this habit of trying to stuff an extra dozen loaded mags in with it. Further pondering convinced me that if I can grab a rifle, I'll depend on that, and not some puny handgun. Or if I have to live out of this bag alone, I want to avoid any interactions involving a handgun, if I can possibly avoid it.
I concluded that I need something that can be effective on both two- and four-legged vermin. Little Smith fills the bill with just 36 rounds of ammo in speedloaders, including six rounds of shot shells. Now that I think of it, this is exactly what I would pack in a bag if I was a bush pilot, too.
The final advantage is that a lot of people aren't impressed with some 9mm handgun, but nobody should have any trouble recognizing what that big shiny thing is.
Next year, I promise to send out National Preparedness Month cards to all of my friends weeks in advance. And maybe the official documents will be corrected by then.
Nice Bag Win-Mag; mmm speed loaders, don’t leave home w/o ‘em.
