M&P AR-15, with pre-ban standard cap mags.
Remington 700 in 30-06 and 180g core-lokt for longer shots.
Remington 870 if what I target gets close enough for buckshot
M1 Garand is backup

Holy crap, what a town of tight asses.

Holy crap, what a town of tight asses.

...And thats why Chuck Norris hates MA.

I'm going to the gun show in West Springfield on June 2nd. Going to be looking to buy some milsurp stuff, ammo, a .30 Carbine or SKS and a .20ga H&R pump shotgun. Maybe some SHTF WROL gear also.
My only concern is buying a gun there because I'm not a MA resident. grrrrrr.

 

[Livefreeormass]

I'd go to Boris to see if he'd lend me something compliant. Right now, I ain't got nothing for SHTF, only range guns.

Who gives a shit when shit hit the fan?

Who gives a shit when shit hit the fan?

Exactly, but they'll all make sure the date codes on the AR mags are pre-ban so it won't affect their suitability.

 

[warwickben]

Mosin , 1911, 12g shot gun.

 

[P-14]

Ruger Redhawk .44 Magnum - It should come with wheels!

 

[Tracer1951]

iver johnson m1 carbine with a 30 round mag, tons of prebans available, almost no recoil, but hits like a hot 357 magnum, looks like a 22lr squirrel rifle and weighs next to nothing.

I vote for the M1 carbine too. War proved, lite weight, recoil easy for child, woman or man. 15 and 30 round magazines available,,, allsorts
of repair parts available and easy to takedown, clean and repair. You can find the ammo and its easy to reload if your into that!

Crap. Now I need to find something to replace my BBB (battle bean blower).

Water soaker???

 

[Tracer1951]

Ruger Redhawk .44 Magnum - It should come with wheels!

If you miss hitting them with the round, the muzzle flash will kill them!

 

[je25ff]

My WASR and M10. Hard hitting round and easy to fix and maintain.

 

[ChevyGuy91]

IDKFA MUTHA****A!

 

[StevieP]

I really need a .308 somethingorother. I'd love a SA M1A Scout Squad or SOCOM 16, but may end up with a Ruger Gunsite Scoute rifle to keep it reasonably priced.

As it is, I've got an AR-15, an 870 Express, a 10/22, and 9mm & .45 pistols.

 

[SMASHING MACHINE]

Exactly. Bring your AK.

 

[garandman]

Take a wild guess....

 

[ivarr]

first to my hand is the 1911, my secondary is my sig 220
carry one caliber , be compact in what i need to run with.



pick up rifles on the ground as i need them, at that point there will be many.

LoL.

 

[JayMcB]

Consolidate calibers if you can.

I have pistols and rifles which shoot 22LR. and spare stocks, magazines, parts, trigger housings, springs, etc from 'upgrades' along the way.
I have a modern semi 30-06 and a Garand....and building a stock of ammo
I have a Mosin Rifle and soon to be Mosin Carbine that both shoot 7.62x54r.
I have a pre-ban Mini-14, and a bunch of pre-ban mags....before I knew any better

Invest in a night vision optic and/or FLIR device

[NewGunGuy]

It would be a lot to lug around,, but my choice would be one of my Mosins. I'm pretty damn good with that at 100yards and my backups would be my Keltec Sub2000 in Glock mags and, if I can ever find one, a glock 17 to share the mags. Although I'm getting my wife used to firing guns and she loves the Savage 64FXP, so maybe that would be her primary and use the Sub2000 and Glock as backups and I would carry the Mosin and use my Sr9c as my backup. I guess though it depends on how everything plays out and how and what happens during a SHTF moment!!

[fubar]

I'd take my beat- to - hell moss burg 500 and start poking around my cellar,attic, yard to see if someone may have hidden an AR-15 and 20 mags out there , which I totally didn't know about , really.

 

[jron]

another vote for sks. one of the larger capcitys out of "assualt weapons" accurate, cheap, cheap to feed and can run her dirty. can also get wuick relaods with the stripper clips.

that is if I cant keep them back with my mosin.

The best ban compliant shtf rifle is the one you build however you want. S already htf who gives a ****.

.gov will already have disarmed you a la Hurricane Katrina. Oh, never mind. You live in a free state. My bad [sad2]

 

[mark056]

I'm not sure if I want to answer that question. One really never knows who reads these boards. All you are saying is what you have when social order breaks down. You are giving the "other side" a very important component in determining the opposing force order of battle...seriously. You scream privacy all the time...but voluntarily relinquish it all the time...interesting
