just curiouse as to what your prefered firearm is for survival. maybe the one you keep in your truck or in you pack when in the wilderness, whatever it may be.
currently ive taken to carrying a AR-7 in .22 cal. it is extremely light, the barrel, action, and magazine collapse into into the stock and is easy to conceal/carry. i keep it in my pack on hikes and canoe trips, in the truck, and even bring it to deer camp for plinking a rabbit for the pot. its just a great rifle to have around.
ive used to take a variety of small game and it is a real tack driver even with the peep sights. woodchucks, squirrels, rabbits are all critters that have been taken with the little guy. believe it or not my dad even took a javelina with one during some times in texas when he was in need of meat badly and short on cash. its a great little rifle to have around for whenever you need it. fits my needs perfectly.
ive also shot an SU-16 made by keltec and liked the way it shot. i believe it was chambered in .223 and was also colapsible. a friend of mine kept it in his truck all the time and more than once kept the coyotes away from his livestock with. also i good little gun but i could never justify it for me as the .223 seemed a little overkill for my needs, with in most cases is simple small game.
i understand that as we all live in very different area's the needs of a rifle will change from person to person, so this isnt a "what the best" kind of thing, just a whats your prefered survival rifle?
lets here it!
