Tactical Medical Solutions’ Active Shooter Response Kit allows individuals responding to active shooter situations to render aid and initiate evacuation of multiple causalities without slowing down an assault or clearing process of a structure or incident area.
Contained within the bag are ARK casualty throw kits. These are individually packaged med kits designed to be rapidly distributed to and utilized by uninjured individuals on scene. They contain basic treatment material and simple bi-lingual instruction for providing initial treatment for causalities until a rescue effort arrives. A casualty marker contained within the kit allows responders to quickly identify the injured for treatment.
The bag is not dedicated solely to basic aid, however. Multiple storage compartments allow medics moving with the clearing element not only to distribute throw kits as needed but also to maintain more advanced equipment for treatment of teammates if necessary.

– 2x SOF Tactical Tourniquet-W

“2x 28F NPA with lube”? I would add a variety of sized OPA’s to the kit since it’s for an active shooter scenario. Not all casualties will be able to accept a 28F.
