Hello all I am new to the site and thought i would test it out by putting a post down for discussion. Im sure many of y'all have wondered and thought along the same lines, but imagine this: lets say something happens to where there is food shortages out the wazoo or a logistics problem and you cannot go to walmart or grocery stores or mcdonalds to get something to eat or even supplies (water, food, clothing, living expendables). or a number of whatevers that could arise, just rose, leaving you to be responsible for the well being of you and your family. youre left with limited ammo, and whatever fishing, hunting supplies to keep you and your family fed for quite some time.
heres the question/test: lets say you only have MAXIMUM 2 firearms along with your fishing gear and other game/food acquiring tools. WHAT are these two firearms that you would have? keep in mind the price of ammo/availability of ammo/weight and size of ammo how long your firearms will last shooting hundreds of ammo(durability-22lr can shoot thousands upon thousands with minimal wear) what type of action because you will probably get the gun wet, muddy, go through sand, dirt, freezing rain, snow...etc if a hand gun; revolver, single shot, semi auto?, if rifle; semi auto, pump, bolt, lever....if shotgun..or heres a good one, IF BLACK POWDER? (fewer parts, oldie but goodie, no bullet case required, just cap/powder/bullet)
whats the gun you would have that would last years in rugged outdoor use without having to take to a gunsmith for springs, mechanisms..bolts, slides, pins, push-pull mechanisms...etc?
and also aside from firearms, what other tools/supplies would you have (keep in mind size and weight)
lets just call yourself a modern day trapper/tracker.
