I wanted to put everything in my MarkVII bag that Indy would logically have in his bag during the duration of RotLA.
Here's my list. Things in bold I'm unsure of. What do you think about these items? What did I miss?

-gloves
-Chachapoyan map
-staff of Ra headpiece
-extra ammo
-Browning highpower??? (did he ever have it in bag, or do we know?)
-reading glasses ? (or did he leave them in suitcase in Cairo?)
-pocket knife
-food?
-Abner's journal
-small brush
-measuring tape? (map room)
-wallet and ID?

-the canvas sand bag was in Sapito's backpack, not Indy's, so I excluded it

My two cents. Compass, pencil. I think he also carried his little book with the red binder.
Oh and if no ones done it yet, welcome to COW.

That's a pretty good list. The only thing I would add to it would be a gun cleaning kit. He puts a lot of rounds down range and I'm sure he takes care of his gear. Maybe some leather cleaner/dressing for everything from his boots to bullwhip too. Of course, these items might be with his proper luggage instead. I can't imagine he stops to clean his revolver in the jungles.

Welcome to COW!!!

I don't know ...... these seem like things you'd do as soon as you got home after an adventure.... I'd think a gun cleaning kit in your mrkVII would be a lot to carry especially with the other stuff he seems to have in there....

Not carrying any kind of field cleaning kit is asking for trouble. But maybe that's why we only see him with the Browning once and the rest of the time it's a revolver. They are much less prone to misfiring and jamming. i agree it's probably not in his shoulder bag though. More likely in his other packs since he wouldn't need immediate access to it.
