At the Linebaugh Seminar a question was asked,If things got bad,and you had to take your family and go,what three guns would you take?Since hearing that conversation it has been on my mind alot.Here are mine RBH 45colt,4 5/8 bl and 255kieth over 24gr of H110,.308Howa w/bull barrel with 175grVLD over 43gr of BL-C2, Ruger 10-22 with CCI stingers.And the reason for all is the same,they are accurate.I hope that time never comes but I am interested to see what others thoughts for simple armament in bad times is.Which three would you put all your trust into?

I suppose my 45LC Bisley, 870 12 gauge, and my .270 rifle. I am not as confident out past 300 with a SP as I am with my trusty Mauser custom.


Rod, too.

Short cuts often lead to long recoveries.

If it jams force it! If it breaks it needed replacing anyway.

45/454 Vaquero, Rossi 92 45 colt, 1858 Remington. The first two because they both shoot the 45 and the last because as long as you have caps your not out of business. I have been reading about making black powder lately and although time consuming it's not impossible and you can always find lead to melt down and make your own round balls. If I had a fourth it would be my Hawken for the same reason.

Don't confuse shooting with hunting.
Shooting is a game, hunting is a sport.
