Doomsday preppers discussion

(I hope it is ok for new members to post senarios!)

All your prepping has paid off. The sewage has hit the fan! Unfortunately, many other desperate souls were not prepared, and are now out to get your supplies! Ahhh!
You can choose only one weapon to protect your supplies and family. What do you choose, and why?

Bow and arrow its silent deadly and you can make new ammunition

Nice choice! And you can have flaming arrows if need be.

Thats tough.... But I think Id go with a knife. Im not afraid to get up close. Though I am goodish at using a bow and arrows... Not sure....

If I was any good at using a bow, that would have to be my choice, but I have been finding it hard not to go with an AA12. (my forbidden love)

Why forbidden?

I'm not a class 3 dealer. :(

Whats that mean?

An AA-12 is a 300 round per minute automatic shotgun. The class 3 is the level of licensing required to even have such a weapon. I do not remember all the requirements, but the average person ("civilian") doesn't qualify.

I would love to have a S.M.A.W, but thats not very practicle, so I would have to choose bow and arrow

Um I personaly like bows and arrows and maby a 9mm and a rifle but bows dont make noise and you can reuse the arrows

Or a sniper rifle with a silencer and a silencer is easy to make

Could you really use a soda bottle as a silencer?

I don't think so.

Yes you can because the noise comes from gases leaving the gun and a soda bottle dose work and a tennis ball also but you can only use it once

Wow. Thanks, Mitch. :)
I'm gonna try them out next time I shoot.

OK just to let you know with the soda bottle you need to use a bigger on like a 2lt and you need to tape it on really tight so no gasses escape

Okie dokie. Will do. :)

Just be careful

Ha!

And it is highly illegal so I only sad that for entertainment

I only read it for entertainnent... LoL ;)

OK good now nobody can get arrested

Wowww... I read paper cuts and then paper clips...

**quietly disappears**

Phantawhat?

I would choose a short-length, very well-made hand-axe; because that is also my #1 wilderness tool choice anyway. Needs no ammo; is light, tough, (practically unbreakable) and also very portable. The best implement for making or breaking camp; and it's also a fearsome hand-to-hand combat weapon. The indians knew this wisdom for sure... theirs were called tomahawks, naturally.
