Because there is no one kit that suits every situation, AMK produces a wide variety of first-aid/medical kits that are tailor-made for specific sports and outdoor activities. For example, the Light & Fast series is an excellent choice for backpackers, hikers and families on the go. The Sportsman series is great for hunters and fishermen, while the Marine series is made especially for recreational and commercial mariners. There are kits for paddlers, business and international travelers, large mountain expeditions, and wilderness medical professionals.
Designed by medical and outdoor professionals, AMK kits are favored by outdoor pros worldwide.

Our playing fields are often located far from the modern amenities that we take for granted - electricity, telephones, running water, and ready access to professional medical help. Consequently, the need to be self-sufficient in the outdoors is essential, especially during an emergency when assistance from rescue teams may be hours or days away. Selecting the right outdoor safety gear -- products that have been tested to withstand the elements and that are intuitively designed so that they can be used easily by the layperson -- can make all the difference when it matters most.
Adventure Medical Kits is dedicated to bringing you the most innovative products which will keep you safe in the outdoors. At AMK, our love of the outdoors is matched only by our drive to create products that allow your customers to stay healthy on land, water, and air. We rely on the expertise of world authorities in wilderness medicine and survival techniques to develop and refine our products year after year.
An adventurous spirit loves to explore. We hope that Adventure® Medical Kits help you enjoy those experiences and keep you coming back for more.
During the days of American Survival Guide, there were two companies that were always competing to get the best placement of ads in the magazine. These rival companies were Major Surplus and Survival, and Nitro-Pak Preparedness Center. Both are still around today, although Nitro-Pak moved from southern California to Heber City, Utah, back in the mid 90s.
Major Surplus was always a fun place to visit because you'd never know what kind of military surplus Steve would come up with. We were like kids in a candy store. Major continues to serve southern California with earthquake and disaster survival supplies, and nationally with all kinds of preparedness supplies through their online catalog. You'll find water barrels, food and water storage, mylar bags, emergency kits, earthquake kits, food storage supplies, dehydrated food, freeze dried food, MREs, lamps, stoves, and clothing. New items and super saver items are always fun to check out. Major always carries a great selection of survival books, such as this one: How to Live without Electricity - And Like It, by Anita Evangelista.
