Gun info

Post by paolo »

I am a bit of a fruitloop who believes that a financial crisis will bring some real misery to the western world, who are not used to hardships

I am slowly prepping, and getting a gun and ammo next week both for hunting and self defence

In Canada, we can't get the good stuff that you can get in USA, so I am restricted to a rifle

I am purchasing from here, simply as everything is in stock

Prior to going to the shop, has anyone any sensible advice on what to get?

Well, I recently retired with a pot of about 37 million quid, after 40 years blooooooody ard graft, so basically I went out and bought A Helicopter, 25 AK47'S, 6 dozen hand grenades, and all military clothes and shit.

Just get that.It'll be sorted.

Are you allowed SLRs in Canada? I'd pick one of those over a bolt actiion anyday. You can keep firing where you're aiming, and you can adjust the return gas levels so you can reduce recoil, with a bolt action, not only does it take longer, you need to make a slight adjustment after you reload.


They have a mossberg semi automatic but it's only a .22 calibre. . Think the lead shot you used to get with air rifles, roughly the same size so no stopping power at all, you might as well throw rocks. You really want to be looking at a 7.62 calibre rifle

It also depends on how far awayy your inended target is going to be, if it's a home invasion then you want a shotgun (pump action) because all you have to to is point it roughly in the direction of the intruder and you're going to hit him as it sends out a cloud of lead shot. With a hunting rifle you only have one bullet which could easily miss.

If you're hunting then the opposite applies.

Get both.

It just sounds like you want a gun rather than being full blown preper crackers, from the above what have you actually experienced and suffered from, your wife if savvy would stab you while you're asleep, no?

12 gauge pump Mossberg for home defence use .00 Buckshot for humans solid slug against vehicles . Rifle for bear I would suggest at least .300 Winchester Magnum using a 200grain Nosler Partition bullet . 338 Winchester Magnum even better but both should stop even the biggest nastiest bear cold.
