I agree 100% with this video. 9mm & 5.56 are the best option in a SHTF scenario. Being in good physical condition is probably the most important way to be prepared for a SHTF scenario.

A big shoutout to Robbie and the tremendous barrels Wheaten Arms produces. I bought one several months ago for my 19 and was simply amazed at the improved accuracy the gun produced. It is the best money I have spent on an upgrade.

Thank you for the gun information and mentioning training; including fitness. If and when the SHTF above the level outside of your home; how well do you think the average person would survive? Owning a gun or guns is a start but most people haven’t been tested in their lives (military service, overnight hikes, bad neighborhoods etc) or even test themselves outside of watching KZbin. Hopefully none of us have to pull a trigger against each other because that’s when SHTF for real. Keep the good content coming

[@SandlapperSam]

20ga shotgun with 18.5" barrel and a light is my home defense gun.

[@jamesduffy6518]

Good choice

[@Valorius]

For me, way out in the country in Ky, my top 5 are my 12 gauge semi auto, my 10.5" AR, my 15-22 rifle, and 2 Ruger LCP 380s. It was a simple choice, since these are the only 5 guns I own (besides my immaculate custom safequeen HK P7, which I take out occasionally and wipe down with a fine cloth as I blare Wagner on my home entertainment system)

[@poundinthastreets]

Money was limited for me when I bought my first firearm. I could only get one, & chose a 9mm Smith & Wesson. It is not the ideal home defense firearm, but I chose it for three reasons. One, the availability of the ammo, two, a pistol can be concealed & fired both in the home & in public, so it wasn’t just restricted to a “home” gun, & three, I was fortunate enough at the time to live in a home with brick behind the drywall throughout the entire home, which allowed me to worry a bit less about hitting unintended targets. I now own multiple pistols and rifles, & am looking to purchase a couple of 590s or maybe 870s next. If you can only get one firearm to start, I’d personally say go pistol too. Violence doesn’t just pop up at home.

[@jamesbuchanan3145]

Take a look at the Mossberg Maverick if you are on a budget. Dollar for dollar it is the best value and *works* like a champion. I have yet to hear a single bad review of that gun.

An anecdotal story about diabetes and my 88-yr old mother in failing health and in hospice for almost one year. My mother is diabetic, had to prick her finger many times a day, had insulin shots, etc. When we thought she was passing, she was put on hospice care, the Docs STOPPED all her insulin, testing, and watching her glucose numbers, etc., because we figured she wasn't long for this world. She's still kicking, has dementia but otherwise, in pretty decent shape, all things considered. She only weighs 80 lbs or so but after one year we recently checked her numbers and they were NORMAL. Go figure. The only thing that changed significantly is her DIET.

[@GunsNGames248]

[@talisikid1618]

Like Beretta 92, P226 & it’s derivatives need short reach triggers & thin grip panels.

[@patrickroy593]

Insulin will last 24 to 30 months in a fridge. 30 days with no refrigeration. I am a type 1 diabetic and I keep 1 year and 3 months worth of it in my fridge and I invested in a solar panel and converter to power my fridge and freezer to ensure it stays cool. Another way is to seal it in PVC and store it under water in the summer 3 feet deep and 12 inches in the snow in the winter. This is what I tested and found worked best.

[@clamum9648]

Didn't know that about the recommended maintenance schedule for the P226. However unless you shoot a decent amount you probably won't hit that limit for perhaps the life of the gun or as long as you have it. You could shoot a box of 50 a month through it and go 33 years before you might replace the rails or frame. Another note on the P226 is they are fairly large pistols. I think they're really great and I didn't really notice the relatively higher bore axis compared to the Springfield XD (like a Glock) I used to have, but I got rid of mine partially because it was just too big for my manlet hands (got a P229 instead which I really love). If you're interested in the P226 and don't have big hands I'd try to try one out first and get your hands on it before I bought one.

[@TPKase]

About the prepper with type 1 diabetes. Type 1 is genetically influenced and where the body does not produce insulin so they have to get it from an outside the body source. This is genetic and doesn’t have anything to do with weight. Type 2 is from lifestyle choices: overweight, poor diet, etc. All I can say is stock on insulin as much as possible. I don’t know of another way.

[@danang1]

I have type 2 ..which is the result of Agent Orange exposure. I guess you can say that was a lifestyle choice... since I chose to enlist.

[@StudSupreme]

.357 Magnum revolver and lever action rifle. Can shoot .38 special as well, increasing versatility. Still both are commonly used calibers. Wheel guns are SIMPLE, and in this caliber goes up to 8 rounds with tremendous stopping power. Out of a rifle, you can hunt medium size game out to 150 yards and can hold up to 14 rounds. Finally - it's one caliber and relatively small, so you can carry a lot and it simplifies your inventory. Alternatives: .308 rifle. Tremendous power, great range, can also shoot 7.61x51, can shoot surprisingly large game, extremely common rifle caliber(s.) 9x19 - not as powerful as .357 Magnum, but not bad. Not really impressive out of a rifle/carbine, so less versatile. But very common. 12 gauge - can't shoot out of a pistol, but it's incredibly versatile. Range is a bit of a problem, even with slugs. Still though - that's not a bad choice at all. Just IMHO.

[@dennisleighton2812]

Don't forget the .38 Special also comes in a snake shot round, which is very flexible.

[@stompbox64dtown9]

If you do a 5.56, get a 16 inch 1 in 9 twist upper with a .22 lr conversion kit. 1 in 9 works best with 55 grain nato ammo. And have an upper built in 300 blkout. Look into 6.8 SPC for range, but ammo is hard to come by and the bolt is different.

I feel like a flintlock (maybe even a matchlock) is a good addition to any prep pile. It is possible, if complicated, to create black powder and lead balls with minimal infrastructure (especially with efforts of a small community), and people used to survive for decades in wilderness with those. If we are talking about prolonged sustainability, that's a solid backup.

[@HarrisonCountyStudio]

A 10/22 or a S&W AR15-22 w/ 30 round magazines could be used against a group of marauders. A .22 lever action is very handy as well. The .22lr is incredibly underrated. The ammo is so easily carried and the cost is low. With accuracy, you could take most North American game. Including a white tail deer easily with in a 100 yards. A head shot with a .22lr drops them dead immediately.

Least popular pistol caliber that’s available could be the .38 Super if you live in the desert SW and like the 1911 platform. It’s popular in Mexico because military calibers (9mm) are illegal. Used to be used a lot in the US for competition because it hits major power factor but holds more in magazine. I remember it being around in the 2011 ammo crisis.

for those that cant own firearms archery is all ways an option a good compound bow can be devastating at closer ranges

[@dennisleighton2812]

Here's my take: 1. Handgun: Definitely an FN Five seveN, 5,7mm, 20+1 shots. Much lighter than a Glock 19 full, easier to shoot, much lower recoil, highly effective (even with anti-septic civilian ammo), and dependable. Buy this first and save up for the next choice. [Never mind all the gizmos, and paraphernalia people weigh down the gun with. As is is good enough, just train better!] { Inter-compatible magazines - irrelevant if you have ONE handgun! Also, it's now 2022 and an ammo shortage - 9mm was one of the first on the scarce list, after .22LR! } 2. Long gun/rifle: Simple choice here - FN SCAR17, in 7,62mm. This is the SOCOM choice for Spec Ops options. Versatile for many applications, and highly reliable and deadly out to 800+m. There is very little one could require more from this rifle that it does not have. I would ensure a good optics installation. [ 24:50 During the 2022 ammo shortage the 7,62 x 39 very quickly became unobtainable! ] 3. 27:58 Shotgun: I would only consider a military shotgun, because it can be used to hunt as well, just as effectively, especially for birds/poultry. It's a no-brainer. The choice here is: FN SLP (Mk1, 8 shot). 4. The remaining gap is still between the Five seveN and the SCAR. To fill this perfectly the P90 is the answer. Same round as the Five seveN, it complement it perfectly out to ranges where the SCAR takes over! Massive 50 round magazine, light and compact, very ergonomic and easy to shoot (even for small people), and insanely reliable! There is also no reason at all why it can't be used very successfully for hunting small to medium sized game. [ With NO mag changes this gives 99 shots! With ONE mag change each, this gives 189 shots.

I am convinced that any version of the Ruger 10/22 would be the best all-around emergency rifle. It's not a battle rifle that you use for waging war. A battle rifle, a Real Battle Rifle chambered in a full powered rifle cartridge is necessary for fighting a war. If you're in need of protecting yourself and your family from humans who are not wearing military style body armor, then I would think a Ruger 10/22 would be acceptable in an emergency situation. You can carry a Ruger 10/22, and 2,000/3,000 rounds of ammunition vs a Battle Rifle, and 400 rounds of ammunition. You would be lighter, you could move much better, you wouldn't fatigue as quickly. You wouldn't blow out your fine tuned hearing. You wouldn't hurt your families hearing. 22LR would be more difficult to locate within a forested location or in a city location with the echo.

AR47 is another option. Stopping power and better accuracy than the AK.

[@Bomberboysllc]

Ak rifles are actually quite accurate

[@williameberhart3505]

AR47‽ Tell me more....

Go to Canada to buy insulin no prescription needed and you can buy multiple vials

Lever action rifle and revolver in same caliber is always a winner.

[@Graydog-sx6le]

For me this is a great option. Also invest in a Lee hand loader and some reloading supplies. My favorite caliber for this is 38/357.

Canadians need a pump action rifle that can take readily available 10 round mags. Also, for Canadians, you aren't owning a pistol unless it's fully registered and transport is controlled by the government, to and from the range only.

If you need to keep meds cold, you can buy a portable ice maker, an inverter, a marine battery, and a solar charger. This would allow you to make ice pretty much any day, and keep your meds in a cooler with your new ice…

[@quarterpounderwithcheese3178]

Goal zero makes great solar panels and quiet generators with inverters. Alternatively, if you live near a running body of water, you can use the current to power your battery/ generator

[@jdlflagstone6980]

Would need a few panels and a few batteries if it's vital. 1 battery and panel would be fine most of the time but you will lose power on cloudy weeks

[@jdlflagstone6980]

@@quarterpounderwithcheese3178 wood gasification is another alternative. Fairly easy to make and you can turn wood waste and leaves and garbage into electricity or to power an internal combustion engine

I wish I could find 40 ammo around here. I feel a road trip coming if it’s prevalent in your area. I’ve lived in Spartanburg and Greenville. Love the area 9 months out of the year.
