Ruger 10-22 takedown
S&W 28-2 6"

Remington 870 12ga

If it were "just because", I would chose (5) $250,000 double barrels.

[nachogrande]

5 guns

a 12 ga Beneli sbe with extended magazine & 2 bbl.'s, a 24" scoped & rifled and a 24"smoothbore (if it counts as 1 gun, if not lose the rifled bbl) with removable chokes, a 20" bbl 308 bolt & 2x7 scope, a 22lr rifle either a Winchester lever & open sights or Ruger all weather & 3x9 scope, a S&W mdl 10 pinned 3" bbl 357, and a sig 226 9mm. if a shtf situation happened the availability of ammo for these guns are why I picked them.

 

[shouldazagged]

But I only have four, and I like them!

I'd swap out the elderly, battered 12ga. side-by-side for an Ithaca 37, keep the Marlin 39A and the 640 no-dash and 10-5 4" standard barrel, and add a 3913.

A winchester 92 in .357 (Converted or copy browning 92 or rossi puma).
A Winchester, ithica or remingtlon pump 12 gauge.
A s&w 4" model 34 .22 lr.

A s&w 4" model 24-3 .44 special or 25-5 4" 45 colt.

HK 91
Beretta 1201FP 12 ga

The bulk of my shooting is three gun competition. I use the 22lr for practice.

The 442 is my edc. These are the only 5 guns I pretty much use now.

If we were allowed to have 6 my last choice would be my Ruger SP101 .357mag 3" stainless

 

[Fishinfool]

Lets see....

I would pick five of the most valuable firearms I could find, real ultra collectibles...

I would then auction them all to the highest bidders...

And use the money to fill my safes with what I REALLY wanted...

I hate being "Limited to" anything, especially guns. Oh yea, with the remainder of my cash, I would build a nice beach home, maybe in NC, and purchase a nice 30 -34 foot sports fisherman....

That's a difficult question without knowing if we are talking about subsistence, modern home defense (rural or urban), concealed carry, or zombie apocalypse?

3. Remington Model 700 .308
4. S&W Model 629
5. Ma Deuce .50 BMG
