Only own one firearm. Which one do you keep?

[BretByron]

I can't tell you which, but I can tell you it would not be a handgun.

[Nick Adams]

If the term "survival" means staying alive by using one weapon to kill animals for food as well as self protection then a 12 gauge shot gun is the choice. This weapon will allow you to harvest quail, pheasant, grouse, ducks and geese as well as four footed critters. With slug rounds deer, elk, antelope and moose can be taken. This is impossible with any other type of firearm.

The variety in ammunition permits a wide variety of game to be taken. 00 buckshot and slug rounds are great home defense rounds. Other weapon choices obviously limit you. Ammo is available everywhere also.

All that he said plus... bean bags, flares, rock salt, flechettes, rubber balls and a bunch of other stuff

My AR, Everything else can be replaced with $. Can't re-register a new AR as an AW therefore I would have to deal with sh*tty laws if I ever got another in Calif.

I can't decide between a Glock 19 or Vp9

Smith 66, no rust, no jam, ready all the time, go bang all the time.

It's a trick question from the anti-gun establishment to prove that YOU CAN choose just one and submit the rest to them.

I had to help you decide . . .

[calif 15-22]

If I could only have one firearm I would have to rethink my SHTF and decide:

a. Bugout with one gun - VP9 (or other 9mm). Shoots 10 rounds, can conceal pretty easily, ammo is plenty. Bugging out with a long gun might be not the best choice in an Urban environment.

b. Bug in with one gun - AR15. Shoots 10. Can defend. Ammo is plenty.

So dang it OP change it to "what two guns" and 9mm and AR for me!

[Stained Allegiance]

Gonna have to go with my p226 with a bunch of 15 round mags.

Guns are like potato chips, you just can't have only one.
