+1 to that, only it's a 642-1 or nickel Model 37 for me.

keith44spec., you and I are close to the same vintage, I'd be surprised if you hadn't carried some"older" long guns than those new fangled black guns. {The M14 I can believe}. As always, all my best, Joe.

A Remington 870

Colt or Bushmaster AR-15

[FlYFiShErMaN]

From an Infantry standpoint: PRC-148 MBITR Radio along with the issue M4 and M9. Works in any situation. There aint nothing like planned air support. All BS stops when our air arrives.............

 

[Frailer]

An M-16 or M-4 with an M-9 in a chest or shoulder holster, body armor, a Kevlar helmet, and an M-240B gunner within arm's reach.

 

[P&R Fan]

If I KNEW there was gonna be trouble I'd stay home with a plethora of long guns available. I.E. an M1 Garand, M1 Carbine, M12 Winchester Riot Gun and a few others of a more sporting nature.
When I've gone out, either on business or for personal matters, and have known I was going someplace I might not come back from unless I'm prepared, I've usually carried on my person my Glock 23, backed up by my Glock 27, backed up by my Glock 22 in the car. Sometimes it's my S&W M66 2 1/2" backed up by my S&W M640-1. All of them with at least one reload, and of course several knives. Unfortunately, though I try to avoid situations like that, they are occasionally thrust upon me, usually involving clients in very bad situations.
I really don't want to get into a fight of any kind, especially a gunfight, but if the balloon goes up, I intend to make it back home.

We had a speaker once that had been a forward air controller working with the Northern Alliance when they fought the Taliban and drove them out. Once those guys saw what the air power could do, they became very protective of the air controller; anytime there was shooting nearby, they'd push him down and pile themselves on top of him.
