i love this topic. i just love thinking about this topic and didnt know that so many others out there were like me. like most others on here, i'm most likely to bug in. in the event that i need to bug out though, thats still an option with my setup. we have some food stocked up, mostly MRE's. and we always keep lots of bottled water on hand. i have several thousand rounds of 12ga stored up in .50 ammo cans, mostly 00 buck and slugs, but also some #6 and #8 bird shot. i have four defense 12 ga's setup and ready to pound all that ammo out. i chose the shotgun mainly because its powerful, its easy to operate and score hits with under stress, and for interior stuff i just dont think you can beat a 12ga. i have two S&W .38spl wheelguns setup as our sidearms, along with lots of .38 spl ammo. my carry gun is also a S&W .38 J frame, so it'd be compatible as well. my big game hunting rifles can suffice for long range duties that might be needed, so i dont have as much ammo on hand for them. i'm seriously considering adding an SKS and a few hundred stripper clips to the arsenal though, it would just be a nice option to have available methinks.
my wife says i'm paranoid, but i just tell her she will think i'm prepared if we ever need any of this stuff...and if we never need it, then i've had a ball setting it up!
