MAXPEDITION FR-1 Combat Medical Pouch

I am in love with this Maxpedition pouch. I purchased this as a first aid kit for my car. It's construction is fantastic and it can hold a lot of gear. I purchased the extra shoulder strap to go with it, so it makes a great grab and go bag if need be. I love the clamshell opening and the fact that is not too big. It fits perfectly in my glove compartment. I have even purchased a second to use as my day hike survival kit.

I was debating on this one or the other Maxpedition first aid pouch. I decided on this one because I have a similar design to the other first aid kit pouch from general medi, and Wanted something different. I wanted it organised instead of just chucked loose into two sections. I have not managed to work out how to pack my first aid items into this pouch because some items are awkward and bulky, while others are tiny (like the tick remover) but I’m going to YouTube the pouch and get some ideas on how people pack it. I am pleased I chose this pouch because it’s a lovely sturdy pouch and when I’ve sorted it, it will be well organised and easier to find things. May actually just put the items which fit in the organisers and the items which don’t fit, just put in a tiny pouch and lay it inside. But part of the issue is because I want to pack my entire first aid into it!! I know it’s possible, including the large stack of plasters and wipes I have!! I am very pleased with the pouch and although it is quite expensive for a pouch, I can’t say it is a waste of the money because of the quality of the pouch!! I don’t think I will ever need to replace this pouch because it seems sturdy and will last a long time!! What I also like is It is also not as big as the general medi pouch and doesn’t bulk out, so although it’s a sturdy pouch, it is a reasonable size. I intend to put it in my backpack! And for the record, the general medi first aid kits are the best first aid kits I’ve ever had. Fantastic items!! They think of everything and the pouches they come in are very good quality. I have purchased many of their kits!!! I just wanted a change from the kits and the Maxpedition pouches, although expensive, have been on my wish list for a long time. Next one I’m going to save for is the Maxpedition Aftermath compact hanging toiletry bag. If I purchase that, I can also put the cream items of the first aid kit into that!! Edit. I have purchased the Maxpedition aftermath compact toiletry bag because I have wanted it for ages. The liquids and creams hardly used I’m putting in the toiletry bag and everything else in this pouch.

Maxpedition item, need I say more? Great quality.

Typical Maxpedition high quality. A little smaller than I would like, but the seize is accurately stated.

Small and compact. Rugged and has a "stiff" structure (it will not collapse/fold). I won't tell you what I put in it, but I was able to pack some sensitive electronics along with some other B.O.B. stuff.
