I have an AR, a FAL, four SKSs, an M6 Scout, a .357 and a .22 revolver as my SHTF weapons. I can't fit anything else, like food, clothes or navigation equipment, in my BOB. No more room.

I have an AK and several mags for my SHTF weapon, just because I don't have a suitable AR-15 for that purpose yet. Of course, I may not use either an AK or an AR if I pick up one of these:[url=http://www.anzioironworks.com/50_bmg_take_down_rifle.htm]SHTF Rifle[/url]

I would suppose my SHTF weapon as in take to the hills and fend for myself is my DSA SA58. I am hoping after the first of the year to combine a Cavarms and some of Kurt's artistry to build my ideal urban SHTF weapon.

I'm surprized there aren't more comments on this one.I'm realy considering an AK-74 to compliment my AR's.

Which bashing would that be from actual military people?
