I'd prefer an HK clone to any other rifle. I think the AK is the best of the assault rifle concept and I think the AR is the most accurate semi mid range sniper rifle if used with a heavy barrel ( it is too light of a round, however ). I would have loved to have one of those Russian 762x54r sniper rifles. My whole point on semi's is that however nice they might be, they suck once the ammo runs out. Period.

I posted this as a suggestion because I figured that Semi's were against your religion, but I see that you're not entirely opposed to them under certain circumstances such as concealed carry in high crime areas.<br /><br />For myself, I have my Ruger P-95 9mm semi-auto that I would carry if I felt I were in a dangerous situation. But I also wouldn't feel terribly disadvantaged with that .410 shotshell revolver.

More friends are made with a roll of silver dimes, dried figs, or a portable solar charger, but it's good to be prepared with both carrots and fire-stick. Carry left and right with a couple speed loads if'n you think it's so scary. I would avoid those places/times without a mag-fed rifle (and at least 2 rifle-carrying armored tribe brothers fresh back from USMC) instead of carrying extra revolvers.

I think Taurus and Smith and Wesson both make one. The Smith and Wesson Governor has a little snub nose and looks pretty compact. I think it only fires the 2.5” .410 shells, but no biggie. I'd imagine a 2.5” .410 shell at close ranges would be devastating. There's also the physiological aspect of the sound and ferocious blast, that after firing the first round, would send all but the most insane hood members scurrying.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-72382129056508021432016-12-15T05:03:22.768-08:002016-12-15T05:03:22.768-08:00Again, not a PostApoc auto fan.

Was thinking about getting 30 years of wheat as a base if I can figure out where to store it. I'll probably add in some beans, rice, and top ramen to that as well. For a vehicle, I still want to get a motorcycle, and that drops the cost of fuel, insurance, and maintenance, to probably less than 1/4 the cost of a car. <br /><br />Technically, I should be able to live out my days without ever having to work another day, since my land is owned outright, I should have a lifetime of taxes, and probably food as well. But unexpected needs such as tools, off-grid electronics, and books will come up. Also, I didn't really factor in clothing over the course of my life. I want to live as long as possible of course, but everyday lately it seems like you hear about too many being cut down prematurely in what should have been the prime of their life (Thinking about Alan Thicke as I type this).
