I need a WW2 bolt action. I'm leaning toward an early war Mauser 8X57 or a nice Lee-Enfield.

I need a Ruger #1 in .223 for exploding varmints and such.

I need a Lever gun. Maybe a Marlin .35 or a Henry Octagonal barrel in 45/70. I had a Marlin guide rifle. Damn!

I need a 7.62 NATO semi or there such type rifle. I wouldnt mind finding a Dragunov.

I'd like another Win M-70 Safari in either .416 or .458 LH just so it could look cool by my .375. Either that or a super light weight mountain rifle/scope combo in .300 WSM. On the 5th I cant make up my mind.

Everyone really needs a suppressed 22lr.  I've got lots of practical uses for mine.

If you only need 5 rifles, one of them has to be a classic .22LR.

But that's just, like, my opinion, man.

If I had to write a list of rifles everyone needed it would be:

1. A good .22 rim fire - ideally it would be suppressed
2. A scoped center fire bolt action rifle in a common caliber (308, 30-06, 300 win mag, etc)
3. An AR15 - barrel length & stock choice left up to individual user
4. Iron sighted rifle (action type left up to user) because everyone should have & know how to use an iron sighted rifle
5. A loaner rifle - inexpensive rifle that you can loan to friends/family and if they break the stock, scratch it up, or just return it dirty you don't loose your shit.

Then a safe full of rifles that you just want for the hell of it.

AR15 in configuration to the user's choice

15-22 or 10-22 supressed

308, 30.06 300 win mag etc bolt gun with scope

You only have 3 real needs outside of a niche fun, such as big big game, big caliber, tack driver .22lr, historic guns, etc.

Those three cover pretty much anything an average person would need to have a well rounded collection,  and be able to hunt, plink,  and defend.

If I had to add a 4th and 5th, it would be a suppressed SBR AR-15 and a tack driver bolt .22lr

1. Milsurp bolt action. Any of them will do, especially if you reload. My son has a Mosin and some Hornady 150gr soft points (.312 diameter) and will use it on some poor deer this fall.

2. Modern sporting rifle. AK, AR, Tavor, etc. Whichever fits your shoulder and your budget. They'll fend off the goblins and are a hoot at the range. They're pretty useful at small/medium game hunting too.

3. Primitive frontstuffer. For fun and for meat getting. In my state muzzle loader season gives more opportunity to hunt and can be every bit as good as the best slug guns.

4. .22 rifle. Any action type. It'll lower the cost of maintaining perishable marksmanship skills and can easily add meat to the freezer.

5. Modern bolt action with good scope, preferrably one that fires a military cartridge. A non-military cartridge that suits your need is good too, but a .308 or .300 Win Mag will kill just about anything in the lower 48 with good shot placement and the right projectile. A rifle chambered in .308 should never run out of ammo if you're even halfway paying attention to sales and can reload.

That's my $0.02 anyhow.

I don't really "need" any these days.

I could easily get by with a 22lr preferably suppressed and bolt gun in 308 / 30-06.

Thankfully I don't have to settle for what I need.

Sorry to end this thread but here are the 5 guns (not just rifles) that everyone NEEDS:

1.  Colt 6920

2. Remington 700 in .308

3. Ruger 10/22

4. Mossberg 590A1 ( Remington 870 if you must have a sg with out a bayonet lug)

5. Glock 19 or Colt 1911

These are the NEEDS.  You can add a .22 pistol if you want.

Shotgun for hunting w/shorter barrel conversion for HD
AR in favored configuration
Milsurp bolt action for the history
AK with sidefolder or under folder. (Sometimes you just need an AK)

Something old, (milsurp bolt action)

something blue(ed).

1. Something that would work as a fighting rifle if SHTF. Pick your caliber and platform, they all have their merits. Use what you'll be good with.
2. Something lightweight in  .308 or larger, good for big game, easy to carry, enough to kill something big that wants to eat you.
3. Pick your caliber, a good,heavy barrel, accurate rifle  for long distance work.
4. a rimfire for small game. Pick caliber, I'd normally say .22 but I can get .17WSM a lot easier right now.
5. A second fighting rifle in the same caliber and platform as +1, because if SHTF parts will be a bitch. Better to have a full parts set already assembled.

Suppressed Ruger 10/22
M1 Carbine
16" AR-10 in .308
Suppressed SBR 10.5" AR in 5.56
Suppressed Pistol 10.5 AR in .300 BLK

After that I'd go with a 9mm PCC with mags common to your pistol

And then maybe a .38/.357 Lever gun suppressed

And then something for long rang in one of the 6** calibers

After that maybe a .50 cal, or one of the shorty trashcan guns

Defensive AR
Varmint Rifle - AR #2


22lr - I'll keep my 541T


30-06 bolt gun - med/big game; Savage, Tikka.


#5 would not be necessary to cover everything I use a rifle for now but I'll go with a 458 Winchester Model 70 in case I ever go after dangerous game.

Only holes I'd like to fill are...

1. An Aero M5 build with a LaRue drop in Stealth 7.62 barrel.

2. Remmy 700 AAC in 308 with a Remage barrel I can put one of those MagPul Hunter stocks on because it looks like it'll be the Mondsy after never before MP makes one for Savage.

3. 10-22 heavy barrel in a MP Hunter stock as a trainer.

4. AR15 SBR in 556 with spare upper in  300Blk ( just have to get SBR stamp, got 3 pistols to draw uppers from

5. 30-30, never  owned one...set up as a Scout.
