The chief idea is that when things go really, really wrong, this thing is attached to your body so that if worse comes to worse you have some sort of survival kit.
You can be ambushed or you could think you are just going to go and get some wood and somehow get lost or otherwise separated from your main bugout bag. Getting lost in the woods is sometimes easier than you think.

If the situation called for it you might also have extra mags and ammo in that bag plus gun oil wipe one pack.
Making it modular is a great idea, so if you are just going on a day hike you can take out the non-gun scenario items from the bag. No reason to hump around mags and ammo if you aren't bringing the gun.
I am wondering if I have space for a container to boil water in and whether or night I want to try and fit in an Esbit stove.
