SIMPLE question, if ONLY ONE gun for the REST OF YOUR LIFE, what is it????

[aeropb]

The pistol/rifle guys would get together and borrow for hunting...

It'd have to be a shotgun, they get used at least 6 times as much as anything else around my place. I'm not gonna put a lot of thought in this question, as it hurts my head and makes me sad to imagine having only ONE gun to use for the remainder of my life. I shoot the hell out of all of my guns, every weekend and sometimes during the week, too.

It's kinda like asking which one of my kids I want to keep.

Glock 19 - reliable, high capacity, concealable
(assuming society stays more or less the same as it is now)

 

[870WingBlaster]

Remington 870 12 ga. Given no limits on ammunition or accessories (stocks, barrels, etc). Covers all of my hunting needs. Not perfectly, but adequately. Can handle everything else except deep concealment.

obviously wise beyond his years

My SBR AR in 5.56 then have two other uppers one in 300 Blackout, and one in 5.45x39 to change into and my Cmmg 22lr kit all my mags I have and ammo. And my 762 AAC can

Hand Gun : G23 can get other barrels and shoot 9mm for cheap, or even .357sig. Works for carry with the right cloths and rig, works for home defense if didn't have a long gun. Great balance of size and power.

Long gun would have to go with the 12ga. pump. Currently my mossy pump. The most versatile weapon system I can think of. Self defense, hunting, etc.... Just choose the right ammo.

Ruger 10-22 rifle with internally suppressed barrel.

Okay, if its go big or go home, I think an electric cannon, like in the tail of some B52s, would be nice. When I was employed af a local airforce base, I used to sit and think how neat it would be to borrow one, and a truck load of ammo, and take it to the praririe shot in Colorado.

I would have to say an M249 SAW...it's not the best gun but it is very versitile! Ammo is readily available, it accepts AR mags, I would have a spare barrel bag with a back up long and short barrel. It shoot a small enough projectile that it can kill small game w/o demolishing it, but can also put enough lead down range to deter even the most agressive attacker.
If it had to be concealed then I would have to say my Springfield XDm 5.25 in 40 S&W...please I don't want to recieve hate mail. This is just my favorite gun. Hard to conceal, but great overall gun.

Good topic by the way.

10/22 without a doubt.
