What is your SHTF weapon?

[j3hill]

Strategic tactical nuke's! And a good pair of running shoes.

One or the other man, there is EITHER strategic OR tactical.
and the US got rid of all the tactical nukes we had decades ago. Was not a good idea to fire nukes from 105's or 155's..our own guys got bad sunburns.

Depends on what I plan on encountering, but if I had to have only one loadout, it would probably be:
.308 Saiga (converted) with 25 or 20 round mags and a Springfield Armory XD45 Tactical. I would also supplement that with an AR, Mossberg 500, and Tikka 338.:

I would love to see someone hump that stuff for 5 miles through the woods. That'd be excellent.

The wheelbarrow is strong in this one.

This is exactly my point. What is the weapon the person or the stuff he carries?

After the brutal, relentless day that was today, I didn't think it would be possible to laugh at anything, but this post proved me wrong.
Thank you.

There's a reason the word "supplement" was used, as in, not all at once. Umm... DUH.

Beretta 92FS & an AR-15. Maybe an Remington 870 for breaching.

About the closest to what I use when on duty in the military. Experienced with those systems.

 

[DunRanull]

MMMMMK..... well, a Mosin-Nagant, shortened to 24" and a case of stripper-clipped ammo. Not to forget my Smith snubby .22 revolver.

As the title states. if everything goes south.. what is your go to firearm.

and for SHTF, i am guessing no law and order.. dog eat dog times and not just the power going out for a few days.

For me, its my Tavor, it just fits for me. My ar and my SCAR all need some adjustment, or to run in ball pounding single point slings. The Tavor is perfect for me as when I carry it in the Savy Sniper sling, I simply have to reach down and my hand is on the grip and I simply need to raise it and I am ready. to me, thats perfect for a battle weapon.

How many time has this exact question been started as a new thread, 100?

With all the necroing there's now a zombie horde.

Right now it's a pair of Mini-14's - one fully auto, the other one scoped. They are probably going to be replaced by AR style rifles. Also planning on one semi auto .308 and one long distance rifle, and a shotgun. If we have to bug out, the wife is gunna be pissed having to carry all that and the ammo as well...

The Mini's are now gone, so a bit of an update...

We are bugging in, so my go to will be a combination of what's closest and what the situation dictates.

Bugging out means somebody ran me off my own property, so my plan is to rest, heal, then return to finish the job. I'd likely take my AR308 and a 50 cal can full of ammo.

 

[Tlock]

My awc technology's 10/22. It'll do everything I'll need and I can be quite and carry lots of rounds

 

[BlindedByScience]

We're also bugging in, so there are lots of choices. I'd holster my G17 full of Gold Dot, and pack my 14.5" AR. It's proven completely reliable and is the one with the RA "Ultramatch" barrel, so I'm good several hundred yards out. It's got a TA01 up top, so I feel very well covered. Bugging in, in a semi urban environment means no 500 yard shots required. There are other choices in the safe, but those are the two I'd grab first.

 

[Knobgoblin]

I'd probably just scuttle around re-animating the fresh corpses of the fallen.
Retreat to deep cover, wait for the dead to do my dirty work, and reap the rewards of my sinister existence.

If it gets real, I won't need weapons, I'll unleash the dogs of war.

If I get shook out of my house, on one end I have stashed a Mini 14 580 tactical and a Yugo AK, Sig P220 in .45.
On the other end of the house is a Mini 30 tactical and a Remington 870 with 6rd extended mag and a Glock 30 in .45.
Both the Mini's are accompanied by a bandolier of eight 20rd magazines.
