Did you not look at my kit? I've got a guard that lets me give you mouth to mouth but protects me from that herpes growing on your lip! CPR mask bra! Lol
Duct tape and plastic bag....front and back....seal it with duct tape, but just on three sides.....lets your lung expand, but then deflate when you exhale so you don't suffocate!
Honestly can't remember, I'll look tomorrow. It's a basic molle pouch I put my stuff in. There are a ton of other options you can use. ALWAYS bring some sort of med kit when you shoot!
I bought black Nitrile ones because they were a little thicker and I thought they would be less visible but someone pointed out that blood would be harder to notice on them in low-light, so I picked up a box of white Nitrile gloves.Good point!!! What would you suggest? I use the "blue" gloves because they are nitrile and so much easier on the hands! Let's face it, soft hands are nice!!

I found my receipt. I bought the belt and all the pouches from ATS Tactical: http://atstacticalgear.com/. Let me know if you want specifics.
Interesting. I've used them recently to bandage up a guys hand while out camping, but he wasn't bleeding too bad, so I don't recall.
Years ago a guy I worked with slipped fell on some rebar sticking out of a column, his arm opened up to a gash maybe 3 inchs wide and 6 inchs long. When he stood up all I could see was white tissue and about 2 seconds later is when the blood came. It was pouring out like a water hose. One of our carpenters took off this nasty shirt covered in sweat that looked like it had been stolen off a homeless dude and wrapped him up. It stopped the bleeding with enough pressure and when he got to the hospital they cleaned up they cut and he was fine. I'll never forget that though.
I can help with all of this.
