Let's drop CB's 3 guns to 2

[Alan]

I found CB's "you can only have 3 guns, which 3?" pretty interesting, lots of .22. I wonder if the .22 would make the cut if you could only have 2. I'm pretty sure the shotgun is a mainstay, but a center fire rifle or a handgun.

For me 12 gauge and .223. 06 is a little much for rabbit.

12 ga and 357 Mag

someone famous once said "shotgun rifle and a 4wd a country boy can survive"
12ga and 06 and a Dodge 4wd

I go with a 12 ga and a 30-06. No 22 to plink with. I will shoot the rabbits with the shotgun. Not legal here to hunt elk with the shotgun and I don't like hunting them with anything smaller than an '06.

Shotgun and 22 rifle.

Shotgun and 22 rifle.

Yep. Then it gets down to skills

 

[Isomade]

1) Savage .223
2) Sig .380

 

[denvermartinfarms]

Savage 223 and 3006.

Another reason for my 12 ga and 30-06 answer is I would rather have too much gun than not enough.

 

[LRTX1]

12 gauge, preferably a 3.5" and a 22mag

My SS Ruger single six with both cylinders is one. And the other is one of my AR's in 5.56. I was wondering why most folks want a shotgun??
And why a 30-06 instead of a AR that can shoot both 223 and 5.56.

I wanted a shotgun cause that would be the only way i could hit something flying. And would handle most hunting situations I have locally.

 

[cow pollinater]

12 gauge 870 and the .243

Plus, a shotgun is the ultimate defense weapon from 10ft out to 100 ft. Dual purpose.

 

[Caustic Burno]

Shotgun and a 45 ACP.
You can hunt anything here in this thicket with a shotgun, rifle pretty much worthless.
The only way I am giving up my 1911 is we get down to one.

 

[Deepsouth]

This is way to much gun control for me! Next thing you know somebody will be wanting me to just choose one. :mad:

 

[Deepsouth]

Ok I'll play along. I'm going with the 12 gauge and th 06. The shotgun is the best all-around firearm and the 06 is the best all-around centerfire. The shotgun will handle anything that the .22 will do.

Ditto the shotgun and .45.
