If you could only have 3 guns…

If you could only have 3 guns to fit all your needs (self defense, home defense, hunting, SHTF, etc…), what would they be and why?

[Roby.evans]

Hard choice between Remington .308 or Marlin 30-30, Remington 12ga, Kimber 9mm. World wide availability and on hand stock.

My son asked me this the other day and I thought it was interesting. Im thinking 30-06 would be more prevalent than 30-30.

[Roby.evans]

30.06 is a great choice too but dang it kicks like a mule.

1. A good 12ga pump. You can Small game, Deer with slugs and buck shot. And Self/Home defense.
2. .308 Bolt Action It has the range and energy. w/o the shoulder kick like the .270/30.06
3. 9mm. semi pistol. recoil is still managble by small framed shooters.

Bonus Gun: T/C Contender - what can't you do with one

[Blackfire]

Escort 12 ga
Springfield xds 9mm w/ Viridian laser
M1 Garand 3006

[Oilwell99]

1. 12ga decent all around gun for the basics
2. .45 acp personal preference
3. .308 or 30/06 hard choice for me I like them both and both have pros and cons
