If you could only have four guns

[The Gleam]

I think a better question is if you could only keep 4 you already have. More realistic.

Totally realistic: and I'm sure California legislators are working on that very problem right now - with Newsom sure to sign it, if not fund a campaign for it with his very own money.

I'm sure Ting or Levine already have a draft waiting for submission next year.

If you could only have four guns

SAM7K-44 SBR
Saiga-12
SVD-63
Glock 20

[Stuttgart]

14.5 Colt/DD/Bcm AR-15
Tikka or Sako long range in 308
Steyr pistol in 9mm
Winchester bolt action in 30-06 (family heirloom)

[smittty]

9mm pistol
22 lr pistol
20 ga o/u
357 mag rifle

[Rob454]

revolver 357 I can use 38s also
rifle either semi or bolt 308
shotgun 12 ga
Rifle 22

[ojisan]

Most versatile:
- Ruger Blackhawk Convertible 4 5/8" barrel shoots 9mm, .38 Special, .357 Mag or anything else you can fit in it. Small enough to conceal, big enough to shoot.
- Tube feed bolt or lever .22 rifle that will accept short, long and long rifle cartridges. Plinking, training, small game hunting, etc.
- 12 gauge pump shotgun with selection of barrels and caliber adapters. Everything from CQB to hunting.
- Centerfire rifle is a bit tougher as usually they only shoot one kind of ammo unless you have some sort of switch barrel gun. Most practical would seem to be a bolt action rifle in 308 but maybe better in 30-06 as the whole point of this kind of gun is medium to long distance shooting with some ooomph to the impact.

[Mac Attack]

For silent handgun work - Ruger MKII
For self defense - Glock 19
For all around rifle - AR-15
For longer range - M1A

Accessories: Suppressors for each and a .22 conversion kit for my AR-15.

I'll mix things up like a weirdo, and throw a few curve balls at y'all:

1911 - trusty pistol that pokes a hole whereeever I direct it - every, single, time.
M1 Garand - without a shadow of a doubt, the easiest and most accurate iron sight rifle I can shoot.
Benelli M3 - 12 ga with interchangeable barrels and chokes, and selectable pump-action - there's nothing it can't do.
Marlin Model 60 - a 22LR with glass can do a lot of extremely useful activities, as well as be fun to shoot.

The apocalypse doesn't have to be ALL serious.

[Kings4sap]

All steel CZ P-01
Daniel Defense DDM4V7 LW
Colt King Cobra
Browning BuckMark URX

Didn’t see a lot of revolvers noted. One of the four is a must.

Alternate - Beretta 1301 Tactical SG (please make it 5, otherwise I am hiding this one)

[X-IDF]

Here's something to consider : Since only the receiver is considered the actual firearm

Can't you "technically" get:
A Sig P320 FCU with slides in different calibers, even different slide/barrel lengths
An AR lower receiver with uppers in different calibers and again different barrel lengths
Then you just need a bolt action and a shotgun of your choice and end up with a lot more then just four actual firearms

*and even some shotguns can have different gauge barrel replacements

again "technically"

[smittty]

No reasons and all reasons, you get to pick 4 for the rest of your life!

If I could only have 40 I'm not sure I think I'd be able to answer this question to my satisfaction.

Cool. I have a Benelli M3. I bought it because of the cool factor. Thinking of a Tavor TS 12 and a 26" field barrel for the M3.

I e-mailed Benelli and asked if the M3 was discontinued and they replied that they still make limited production runs.
