If it comes down to having all of them taken but one I am assuming we have given up all hunting rights as well.

At that point I want my mini 14 with as many 50 round clips as I can round up.  :chuckle:

If we can still hunt I would say over and under rifle shotgun combo.

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.

If I can hunt, my Benelli SBE, or if not, my Tika T3 243.

I would have a custom rifle built along the lines of the ruger alaskan but in 30/06. Really good adj. sights, quick detach rings. and probably a luepold vxIII 2.5x8 or maybe 1.75x6 or maybe even a fixed 6. 20" heavier than normal stainlees steel barrel, laminate stock (pepper gray) I have actully been thinking of haveing a gun built on those lines as it is just cause I like the concept.

Looks like I'm the first to vote for a handgun.  I'd probably go with a 1911.

OK Obama sends his SS to your house and you could only keep one gun!  If you could only have ONE!  You can kill everything with a shotgun, thats why I picked it.


 

I would take out the SS and take their guns so I could have more :IBCOOL:

But if I had to choose it would be an AR in 308.

I can shoot 150 yards with the 870 and the Hastings rifled barrel.  My buddy dumped a blacktail from 16 yards with it.  I wont shoot at a bear over 100 with it.
