Survival Shotgun

If you could only have one gun for the end of the world, would it be a single shot shotgun for the 1970's? We make a case for it in this video. Could this single shot shotgun be the ultimate survival shotgun?

[@1guyin10]

My first gun was a H&R 20 gauge single shot. I still have it. It was a great first gun. You learn to hit what you are aiming at when you only have one chance to get it right.

When my wife took my old H&R single shot out deer hunting I told her she only needed one shot, make it count. She came back with a 12 point buck. I love my single shot so much that I sold my 12 gauge pump. It's just fun to break down (and eject the shell) reload and go again. So much more fun than a pump. I just got done restoring my old H&R, re-blued the barrel and refinished the stock and forearm with a red mahogany stain and a satin finish polyurethane, she looks great. I think I'll keep it another 40 years. Now I'm looking for more single shots to restore, but only 20 gauges and 410's, I've had enough 12 gauges. a 20 will do all I want to do.

Another good survival rifle would be something like the Rossi Trifecta, it's a break-action, which means it's stupid-proof, any issues can probably be fixed with minimal shop tools. Interchangeable barrel means you can shoot 20 gauge for defense, .22lr for varmint, and .243 winchester which is the jack of all trades caliber for the gun

It’s most likely not rifled, whit it then classifies as a shotgun, it also has a choke, which rifles do not. The thumbnail is an adaptor which makes it able to shoot .45

For a survival gun I would do a Kel-Tec PMR-30 and CMR-30 combo. The PMR-30 is a pistol with 30 round magazines that fire 22 magnum. Get the factory 5" barrel wit h the flame suppressor as the gun tends to make large fireballs otherwise. The CMR-30 uses the same magazines and ammo, but is a carbine with a 16" barrel and extendable stock making it very compact. You can add a cheap 22lr scope on it and do 3" groupings at 100 yards. The reason why I say it is good for survival is because they are so light. If you need to walk 30 miles with a pack of survival gear, weight is everything. You can do both guns with the 4 mags the come with loaded (2 each) and a box of 500 rounds of 40 grain hollow points for a total of 10 pounds. And trust me a good shot with a 22 magnum is going to drop a deer or hog or anything smaller without too much trouble. You might have to be more accurate, but in a survival situation you are hunting anything you see pretty much. 640 rounds of ammo will last a long time too. That gun just takes too long to reload, is too heavy (especially with the adaptors), the ammo is heavier, it does not have that good a range... not the best for survival.

[@marcusmitton7135]

I had a old stevens over and under chambered for the 234 and 3 inch and 22 sl and lr. My buddy a gunsmith figures was 40s or 50s era . The barrel had enough meat that he bored it out to accept 22 mag which my bud makes little 22 mag snake rounds for me too . My granpa said he had a factory one years ago and that same 2 rounds fed their family in some awfully lean years. He said he shot 2 deer with it and as the 22 mag was subsonic often the deer would flick its hide ...maybe lift his head and look around then resume eating. They would bring a few rolled smokes and have a smoke after the shot and usually the deer would just lie down and theyd share another and that would be it . Having been lung shot they bled out never knowing they were shot and likely werent even suffereing all that much as they seemed really quite calm. His was not able to take the full 3 inch shot/slugs in 410 but the smaller it did and again he took a deer or two with those as well. One can surmise that the nearly half inch chunk of metal from the 410 isnt much to sniff at so to me this makes this tiny ultra light and fairly short over under the ultimate all round gun and although mine aint pretty and is showing its age its acurate and i cant recal a year it hasnt surprised me . Id reach for the stevens if all hell cut loose and id have to pack something and provide or defend. Also in a house to house the 410 is awesome as you kill the bad guy/s not the badguys, your 2 kids, the neighboor , etc. Awesome home defence weapon compared to defender everyone thinks is best ..ill take the stevens again.

My first long gun was a Savage 24C. It was an over-under with a 20guage bottom barrel and a 22LR top barrel. It came apart easily into two pieces, the longest only 24inches; short enough to fit in a backpack. I loved that gun. A few years later I came across a used slightly rusted Savage 24V at a yardsale for $20. It was .357 magnum over 20gauge. From Shotgun News I bought a couple of barrel sleeves, one short one chambered for .45Long, the other 20 inches long for 30-06. That one had a tiny removable chamber bushing that converted the 30-06 to 7.62 Nato. With those 2 rifles I could fire all the 22 ammo, and .38, .357, 45ACP, 45Long, 30-06 and 7.62 Nato, as well as all the 20gauge shotgun rounds. I had a Colt Mk IV Government Model and an HK 91 for self defense. These days, I don't own any guns.

Before Ted Williams, Sears called their sports equipment J.C. Higgins. They even made handguns with that name on them. While I never got into shotguns, I do like the break action rifles. When they were still available I obtained a H&R Handi Rifle and 4 extra accessory barrels. So now I have bull barrels for .223 and .308 and standard barrels for .22 Hornet, .30-30 and .44 Magnum. To make them more versatile, I have single action revolvers in the three calibers that have standard barrels. The only problem is that handguns in .22 Hornet and .30-30 are only available as the expensive BRFs. But it's great to get things while you still can. I also have a couple of other H&R break actions: a .22 RF and a .58 caliber muzzle loader. I sure miss that company.

That one lasted a week or so, split at the same place. Back to Sears. When #3 broke, I just went and got my money back. They were fun while they lasted, though!

His statement was technically inaccurate. Although there's no independent safety, like most single shot and older firearms, the hammer mechanism locks between the cocked and "just fired" postions with the firing spring unloaded, effectively safing the shotgun. The hammer cannot move forward to strike the firing pin until being retracted into the full-cock position again.

CNN: "This gun is so deadly because you can put any bullet you want in it"

[@brighter22]

i want it.

[@missingno2401]

cnn would have an internal breakdown over this gun because it shoots any bullet you put in it but it has wood and no one cares about wood guns unless its an ak

I have a set of different shotgun, pistol and rifle caliber adapters. They include .22S/ .22L/.22 LR/.22mag,.22Hornet, .25ACP, .32, .38/.357, .44mag, .45ACP, .45LC/.410, .223, .28ga, 20 ga, and 16ga as well as an insert to convert a single shot 12ga to balck powder. Some of them came in a set together, others I got singlely and the .223 adapter was machined by a friend of mine. Some are only a couple of inches long and not rifled and those aren't very accurate and some are 3 inches long and have about an inch and a half of rifling and the .223 is three inches long and has an inch of rifling. Thaey are good in a pinch but it takes a few refresher rounds to remember where they shoot at. I use them in my old Eastern Arms .12ga and have .22s/.22L/.22LR/.22mag, .38sp, .410 and blackpowder adapters for my Savage single shot .20ga. I also have a box of bras cases in .12ga that I reload with blackpowder, both shot and ball.

People sleep on those subcaliber devices, they're real handy for when the more popular ammo types become more expensive.

I mean it's a good survival gun but without the self object I don't know how efficient it would be. I feel like that little cut out in the barrel modifier thing is for your nail to get the shell out easier.

I was extremely confused when I saw the thumbnail not loading in a shotgun round, calling it a shotgun.

Great job guys but it looks like you may need that gun sooner than expected.

[@arthurshingler2025]

I have one that opens out when you fire it. Not the first time I've seen break open guns do that! I wish that I could get them all fixed!

Ghost rings definitely improved slug accuracy in an 870 I own. Not Novaks, but aimable and more accurate that point and shoot!

Just get an over-under and (if they make one) have a 5.56 adapter on the top one and leave the bottom 12ga. Effectively can deal with mid- long range and close range and have the stopping power for both. Just a thought.

[@BatCaveOz]

The adaptors are only made in pistol calibers. (or smaller gauge shotgun calibers)... rifle ammunition has too much pressure to be safely fired from a shotgun. The eight adaptors available from Chiapa are: 380ACP, 9MM, 357MAG/38SPL, 40S&W, 44MAG, 45ACP, .410/45COLT, 20GA
