Okay, as I pack this afternoon for my trip North, I realized that I have a bit of a problem. In fact, I have been mulling this over for a couple weeks, but now I must make a decision.
Remember, regardless of how long this thread lasts, I'll only be able to factor in ideas from the next 24 hours or so....
Imagine you have several weapons fitting into each general category that you could take with you for a 6 month trip. The trip will include access to a range, exposure to tactical training (rifle, carbine, pistol), hunting season, and social shooting opportunities.
Obviously, I will have a issued pistol and pump shotgun. But I will not be carrying the issued pistol off duty.
Keep in mind that it is entirely likely that I will not return home until after the dreaded Y2K.. while I am not really into the theory that all hell is going to break loose, I was a Boy Scout and you know what they say.....
Also, keep in mind that I will be living in a Holiday Inn, and have evenings and weekends free, but be on a predictable daytime schedule.
I am considering very seriously bringing one of those lightwieght sears/walmart type gun safes with me.
So, the question is, if you were in this position, what guns would you bring?
Carrying? Back-up? Plinking? Hunting? Y2K?
