âď¸ Ideal Use Cases
The UMG Basic IFAK is designed for versatilityâespecially for those who live the EDC lifestyle and want to blend preparedness with a low-vis profile.

đźď¸ Reference the Picture: The Perfect Balance
In the photo we shared on Instagram, youâll notice how everything disappears into the environmentâa CCW pistol, spare mags, and our UMG IFAK, all neatly tucked away in a minimalist backpack. Thatâs the goal: hidden in plain sight, but instantly accessible.
Itâs a reminder that preparedness doesnât need to shout. It just needs to be thereâwhen seconds count.

đĄ Pro Tips for Carrying a Concealed IFAK
⢠Practice Access: Just like drawing your CCW, practice retrieving your IFAK one-handed.
⢠Label it Internally: Consider marking or color-coding the pouch internally so even someone else can use it in an emergency.
⢠Pair With a TQ Holder: Mounting an external tourniquet (with a cover) on the outside of your pack gives instant access while keeping the full kit protected inside.

đŚ Final Thoughts: If You Carry a Gun, Carry a Kit
Having a firearm is only part of the equation. If youâre carrying lethal force, you also carry the responsibility to preserve lifeâwhether itâs your own or someone elseâs.
The 4x6 FatPak UMG Basic IFAK is small enough to stay hidden, tough enough to withstand daily carry, and comprehensive enough to handle the most common life-threatening injuries.
Because real preparedness doesnât need to be loudâit just needs to be there when it counts.
