I'm not meaning to start this as some kinda insensitive hotbed, but, here goes:
If a N.O. kind of thing happend in your town, what rifle/weapons would you choose to carry, from what you currently own? This is assuming that your house/storage location of your arms isn't swamped or looted before you get your firepower "out and about". Presumably the situation would be mass destruction on a massive scale, caused by weather that was unanticipated (N.O. was ready for a class 3 or 4, but no one can prep for a 5). And, would you try to gather your buddies and distribute your arms/armaments to try and survive/ward off armed looters, or what would your plan be? After this past week, it seems that having SHTF isn't too unrealistic anymore.
I'd keep my SKS/ammo handy, and my .22LR revolver (it's all I got that works as far as handguns go).
