Four ... no, Five ... SHTF Guns You Should Own

Generally when you see a list of "the top 4 (or 5) SHTF guns to own" it turns out to not be about specific firearms but categories of firearms. "You should own a modern sporting rifle, a handgun, a shotgun, and a .22 rifle (or a long range rifle)" seems to be a common list. In "My Four Reliable & Practical SHTF Guns You Need to Own," author Thomas Conroy hits these categories but actually gives specific firearms:

  1. The Glock 19 pistol;
  2. The PSA PA-15 Classic AR-15 5.56 M4 Carbine;
  3. The Ruger 10/22 Takedown; 
  4. The Remington Model 700 in .308; and (despite the title only referencing four firearms),
  5. The Mossberg 500 Persuader shotgun.
He also provides alternatives in a few of the categories. 

    You might not agree with his choices or have different recommendations for different situations (I know I do), but at least he gives specific recommendations instead of the vague "have a rifle, a shotgun, a pistol, ...." For a newby, this is far more useful than the vague categories because it at least gives a place to start or example of features that someone might want in a weapon.
