1 - Rem 870 12 gauge
2 - Marlin Model 60 22lr
3 - Rem 700 or Win 70 300 Win Mag
4 - Glock 19 or Springfield TRP
5 - SBR AR-15 (DD MK18)

That accounts for everything big, small, winged, four-footed, and two-footed.

Maybe an M1 Garand instead of the M1A can't make up my mind.

Guys I told my list of go to guns to someone who really opened up my eyes 2 weeks ago.

Before our conversation it was
5.7 pistol
5.7 rifle
10mm semi-auto pistol
6.8spc ar
.338 lapua Desert Tactical Arms Bulpup (Long Range)
Benelli M4 12 gauge
.22 Cal Pistol and rifle

After our conversation... (he enlightened me in the event of a catastropy, it is likely ammo from sporting goods store will taken first in all calibers) I should only make my go to firearms ones that you will be able to easily find ammo for. So that would lead me to military or law enforcement calibers which makes perfect sense. So that being said, 7.62x51 (.308), 7.62x39, 5.56 (.223), 9mm, .45 auto, 12 gauge and of course .22 cal.

That being said my new list...
M1a Scout or an AR in .308 (LWRC REPR) and supressor
LWRC SPR AR 5.56 w/.22 cal conversion kit and supressor
Ithaca Model 37w/ stakeout barrel and 24" hunting barel
HK45CT and Supressor
Walther P22 w/supressor

parchaser, that's why i chose the 308, 9mm & 22. nothing wrong with a 22, you can carry 1000 rounds and it doesn't weigh anything. plus, for the most part, it will do what you'll need it to do with minimal noise. the supressor option is not realistic for the majority of us otherwise surpessor & heavier round would obviously be preferred.

22 ruger mk 2
22 rifle ruger 1022
Ar15
12 gauge I like mossberg 590 remingoton 870
Rifle in 308 or 3006

There is not a damn thing you can't hunt in north America with these. Parts and ammo everywhere. Self defense is covered-don't take pistols to gunfights.
Now if I can have more which I can because I am an American,
357 in pistol and rifle
45 acp or 9mm- military rounds

Lots of good stuff but when it comes to parts, findi g ammo, affordi g ammo hard to beat what the military uses.
