I have all of them. Plus cap n balls, Hawken, air rifles, axes.
Can't be too careful.
That's mine also, my nightstand gun is a S&W Model 27-2 Highway Patrolman.
I do have an appropriate long gun but it is there in the event of a natural catastrophic event like another big hurricane where things go south for weeks or longer. I am really interested in the results of this though, so far, and it is early, there is only one assault rifle clone on the list. I really don't like the term assault rifle for these civilianized versions, the folks who call them "modern sporting firearms" I think are more on track.
I've got a few old surplus military rifles, all chambered in .30-40 Krag or .30-06 Springfield or .308 Winchester. Any one of these would be fine. Probably would end up using one of my M-1 rifles w/ some nice M-2 ball. Sincerely. bruce.
Have to agree with dogtag. Large knife in the kitchen, 9mm near the computer along with a M1 carbine. Bedroom, 1911 in 45 ACP. Basement Garand.
I don't know! The only c/f rifle I have that is short enough to maneuver in here is my FR-8, and that's still pushing it on length.
Odd that the compact stoner variants aren't mentioned (yet).
About the only thing I have in here short enough for a 360 degree swing is my 94-22-M.
I think it's favorite 50 gr. JHP would speak with authority at the very limited ranges in here.
So I didn't cast a vote, just based on not really having a category that fits me.
