survival rifles.

[FVR]

Think I just changed my mind. Spent the morning chasing rabbits with a selfbow, darn things are fast.

Trading the 308 in for my mossberg shotgun. Packing in slugs and 4 shot. Slugs for deer, bear, and protection. 4 shot for small critters and flying dinners.

What gauge is your Mossberg FVR?

Kid

12 guage of course. Would need a wheel barrel for the rounds.

Try Bear Archery http://www.beararcheryproducts.com/
or pick up an issue of Traditional Archery Magazine they sell all types of longbows, there is also a longbw called the stick that is real good and sells cheap.
Also as Smok said in different thread you can make your own Atlatl:

I have a Ruger 10-22 with extra clips. I've modified the clip release to a longer one and I've changed the stock to one that is collapsible. But I held on to the original. I also pack a .38 wheel gun for the two legged varmints.

Better yet, vitist tradgang.coms classifieds.

Meanwhile I also have an H & R 12 ga. single barrel shotgun, not to mention a Ruger Mark II .22 cal. pistol.

Sarge, I assume that by H&R you mean Harrington & richardson. I too have an ancient H& R M48 topper in 16 g. Is the company still running? I'd Like to have a date of manufacture on the gun but I cant find a H&R site that does so. I suspect this gun was manufactured around 1950 or so.

I'm not sure what you're asking here. My H & R was bought brand new over a year & a half ago from Wal-Mart back when they were still selling firearms. (Wal_Mart recently quit all sale of Fire-Arms in many of their stores.) I was thinking that H & R was owned by another company. I'll check it out and get back to you.

OK, Harrington & Richardson is affiliated with the Marlin Firearms Company. Here's there Home web-site:

Remington has bought out Marlin, H&R, NEF. The home pages may be relocated till they settle in maybe under one banner?

Thanks. Hope thay dont destroy the old records.

for a pack rifle i have a rossi model 62 carbine. it's a .22lr in a pump action and takes down to 20"

i used to carry a 10/22 carbine and was thrilled when the clinton semi-auto assault waepon bill expired as it allowed me to put a folding stock on it, making it more compact for pack carry [as if this might be some terrorist act].

[sh4d0wm4573ri7]

22 long rifle is the classic but also have backup 12g 870 , Rem 700 30.06 , bolt 22 long and have been playing with an RWS for few years now also nicce guns they are ,,,

[Rick]

Man, how are you going to carry all that? Are you farming out to other family members? I have several other pieces that I would hand out to my sons and my son-in-law, some with more stopping power, but the two I stated above is what I'd carry, especially if I was alone.

[cyc79]

I have a charter arms AR7 & ruger 77/22 stainless.The AR7 is finicky on ammo but tried different brands till I found what mine liked best for accuracy & minimal jamming.I'd go with my ruger though as I'm more comfortable with it.I'd have to go with it & leave the centerfires behind as in my area small critters would be what make the most meals.

I plan on getting an m6 airforce rifle.

I whas wondering what rifles everyone had or which one you're planning on getting?

Are you interested in hunting rifles or pack guns?

For pack guns, I have a beautiful early 1900s 4/10 break open single shot 4/10, a Mossburg 4/10 bolt that is so old and rusty I don't care what becomes of it, a Remington slide action .22 take down (with takedowncase), a Model 12 Winchester short (18 inch) barrel 12 ga, and two Savage slide action 12 gages with 18 inch barrels, one from the 1920s, one from the 1950s.

I had one of those M-6 survival rifles when I was a kid (though I had to check it out on the web to see what you were talking about). Never thought much of it. It was kind of a marginal gun for hitting anything. Appears to be still available through Springfield Armory.

[chopp29]

Hey anyone know how accurate the SPRINGFIELD M6 SCOUT RIFLE is?

[chopp29]

I was doing some searching and came across this, I didnt hear anyone mention the Kel-Tec SU-16, if anyone wants to check it out

http://www.equipped.org/Kel-Tec_SU-16_Review.htm

[marberry]

that Kel-Tec SU-16 , thats an assault carbine not a survival rifle. really bloody cool though , whats the price ?, are they legal in canada? , and where can i get one?


i say .22's make the best survival rifles if not for the single fact that there ammunition is so small and light . id hate to carry around a few hundred, 30-06 , 7mm , 7.62x39mm, .308 , or .50 cal shells
