You might want to put an umbilicalizer on that thing or paint it yellow. saying

There must be a reason 22LR is difficult to find! I think a lot of people see virtue in your selection.Depends on the SHTF scenario but for the majority it would be a scoped 10/22 if I could pick just one.
Suppressed 22 is the way to goThere must be a reason 22LR is difficult to find! I think a lot of people see virtue in your selection.
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.
Or I will just stick with the 30-30Many weapons have the unfortunate side effect of being lethal, so defense agencies are always on the lookout for more humane ways to stun the enemy. In 2007, the military thought it had found it in the "sick stick": a flashlight that unleashed a kaleidoscopic pulse that caused vertigo, nausea, and hurling.
The idea for the weapon dates all the way back to the 1950s, when helicopter pilots started mysteriously crashing. Investigators determined that the frequency of choppy flashes of sunlight shining through a chopper's spinning blades caused dizziness and disorientation. Tinted glass and helmet visors solved the pilots' problems, but the U.S. military started wondering whether it could use the effect to its advantage.
While the sick stick gets two thumbs up for twisted creativity, the weapon has major flaws. First, a target has to look directly at the light to feel the effects—why not just turn and run? Or wear shades? Also, the gadget's unwieldy size—15 inches long, 4 inches wide—made it cumbersome in the field.
A Department of Homeland Security newsletter criticized the sick stick, deeming it "more transportable than portable." Before long, the military abandoned the $800,000 project.
But the idea didn't die there. In 2009, a pair of hardware hackers slapped together their own version for $250 using a flashlight from Sears, $3 LEDs, a nine-volt battery, and a heat sink from a computer processor—enough to make the government queasy.
I'm going to go with a rusty screwdriver, and a fire-ax. You never need ammo and you can open all the cans of beans left behind when all the stores are looted, because no one will have can openers.
I mean like really, you know, when the PAW comes, those army guys are going to die well before they use up all that ammo, and we all know they're going to run away leaving all that juicy loot right there for you to find. They'll be too busy fighting off lice and disease.
At the same time... why would they leave just the ammo? Wouldn't they also leave guns? So why do you even need a gun? Besides, all you need in a zombie apocalypse is a revolver, and maybe a deer rifle and the ability to deliver a rousing yet defiant speech!
Oh wait.... dammit!
The only problem I see with your theory is, the other guys with guns will be looking to improve their own situation. It might be hard to defend yourself with an ax and screw driver at 100 yards.
I know if I end up in an area where I am defending my fortress there would be nothing in the area to find I would have collected it all already
What? You mean there won't just be weapons and ammo and food laying around all over the place?
There will be plenty of all of that laying around after the drones make a pass.What? You mean there won't just be weapons and ammo and food laying around all over the place?
