What do you carry in your range bags?

[M1A]

If you have nothing else. A couple of tourniquets. One can do an arm, but two may be needed for a thigh. They take little room, easy to use, inexpensive, and can mean a life saved.

Just as the title says let's hear what your you carry I've seen from the simple stuff and some that looks like they cleaned their safe out lol

The following items live in my range bag at all times:

Range keys

Hearing protectors (2) (I may take a friend who does not have these)

Safety glasses (2) (same reason)

Break Free CLP

Uplula Magazine loader

Cleaning rod, brush, jag, patches, shop rag

Safariland belt hook for hearing protectors

Assortment of tools that I have needed for simple jobs on the range (I have learned by experience and added over the years) including screwdrivers, punches, Glock disassembly tool, hex keys, torx wrench, Wilson (I think) folding tool for 1911s, bushing wrench, front sight tool for AR; etc.

Although no longer used, I keep a few full moon clips and a tool to remove brass from the full moon clips.

Staple gun with extra staples

Toilet Paper roll (you never know)

I have a separate bag for ammunition.

Empty zip lock bags to put carry ammo from carry pistol while shooting ball ammo for practice.

I usually have around 300 rounds of ammo, mags, ear-plugs and earmuffs, 2 sets of glasses, rest so I don't have to use one of the community ones at the range, large and small paper plates as my targets.

Some times it seems the real question is: "What don't I have in this box?"

 

[Louchia]

2 eyes,
2 ears
ammo
mags
mag loader
small tools
1rst aid kit
small towel
target hanger, required where I shoot

I'm not sure what's in there, but it's probably too much. It weighs a ton.

 

[flywrench]

Don't know. Haven't found the bottom yet!

 

[mrconfer]

Ears, eyes, cleaning kit, multi-tool, flashlight, ammo, and a couple microfiber rags in a back pack, then I have my shield, m&p 15-22, and all my mags in a long gun hard case

I like to keep it simple. The less you bring, the less you can accidentally leave behind.

I bring my ammunition, magazines and Uplula mag loader in my pad locked ammo can that goes in one bag and in my range bag is my Hornady pry-proof, triple bolt drum lock steel handgun storage box, 3M 33NRR ear protection as well as 32NRR 3M ear plugs, Revision brand ballistic eyewear and a baseball cap (I rarely wear one, so I just keep a dedicated ball cap in the bag so I don't have to deal with shell casings hitting my forehead. It doesn't hurt. It's just annoying and I don't like the distraction). That's in the main compartment; in the side compartments, I have a little towel so I can mange perspiration when taking a break and a North American Rescue Ipok Kit (better to have it and not need it and all). There's also a pen and a compact flashlight.

I keep the front and back slots empty for exchanging business cards with folks I get to meet on the range, as I tend to be a pretty friendly guy and when people sometimes talk to me about what they do, where they like to go practicing, or they're an NRA certified instructor, I like to keep in touch.
