12 gauge-most common shotgun
.22lr bolt gun-ammount of ammo that can be carried,low report,will kill most animals with correct shot placement
.22lr pistol-Uses same ammo as .22 rifle
.40 glock 23
AR .223

First three for survival.
Last two for protection.
All can be supplemented.



Never say never!

For just covering the bases and the what-if scenario of the "world goes to doo-doo" Then here are my five:

Ruger 1022 .22lr
12Ga. Shotgun
Glock 17 or 21 (9mm of .45)
SW or Ruger .44Mag
Bolt action .308

If it came down to pure survival I would only call on the .22LR and the 5,000 rounds I could easily carry in my pack.

I can’t believe most of you are getting a 10/22.
If I only could have 5 guns, my 22lr choice would be a Cooper or an Anschutz and my only semi-auto rifle would be a high end 5.56 AR.

I don't know why wouldn't u get a 10/22?
I put it on my list. For what I would "need" my 22lr to do in this scenario, it's more than sufficient.

Yeh but if you could only have one 22lr in your life, wouldn't you choose something more refine?

Neither would I. I guess I'm looking at this through my SHTF goggles so refinement and aesthetics are very low, if not non-existent, on my list.

Lets see taking in to account firearms would be used for hunting and defense in a long term no replacement situation.

Benelli M4 Super 90 12 gauge, Can pull double duty as a defense and hunting shotgun although not ideal for hunting with changing chokes and shot size I could make it work.

Sig Sauer P228 9MM

LWRC REPR .308 win w/ 762SDN6 suppressor, would make a fine long range offensive firearm, while also filling the role of hunting or defensive semi auto rifle.

Ruger Single Six, would be a good pistol for hunting small game in closer.

Marlin 882 .22Magnum w/ 3-9x40 would fill the role of a light compact rifle but also capable of taking medium size game.

I'm with them. If I had to pick 1 .22 it'd be a Ruger 10/22.
