The A.C.T. Ranger kit has everything one would require for mild to severe first aid trauma, and at a price point which is impossible to beat, even if one had the inclination, and abundance of time, to attempt to duplicate the Ranger kit on their own. I like the fact that the Ranger kit was created by veterans with a vast amount of experience on the subject, and this becomes more clear as you explore the kit, including its fit/finish, as well as quality control. The Ranger kit is exceptionally well thought out, by this I mean it is layered in such a fashion so as to provide access to the worst case scenario first, then layered down to minor problems, which the exclusive, and genius "ouch pouch" can take care of. The Ranger kit takes the guesswork out of the equation for someone like me who wants what I'll need, without having to figure out all the items necessary, let alone how to properly organize, and fit so much correctly into a compact carrying case. The Ranger kit also nicely attaches to molle on your ruck sack/backpack, or anywhere else. Being an older person like myself, the Ranger kit is something of such high quality that you might want to consider leaving it to your kids/heirs someday, because it feels like it can last forever, so I view the kit as somewhat of an investment. Furthermore I like the fact it is made in America, and ACT stands behind their product with excellent customer service. Lastly, having 2 teenagers, is another reason I like this kit so much, because it can be used as a teaching tool for the younger generation, for as many may know it is better to have it, and not need it, than to need it, when a life is on the line, and not have it.
