    I would agree. I would go back to my Colt Single Action Army and Marlin 1984 both in 45 Colt that I reload with black powder (gotta be authentic if were going old school). My Marlin 1895 in 45-70 would replace the AR 10. Don't know if I'd give up my truck and ride my horse full time though!

    I'll rock my Eli Whitney rolling block. Anybody know a source for 43 Spanish in bulk?

    Lots of ways they could F with those. Just ask the Canadian MG owners how they enjoy shooting theirs.

    Hopefully, it never comes to that point in my lifetime. I wouldn't be able to stomach reading on this site that a lever, pump or bolt action can be run effectively and semi autos aren't the hill worth dying on.

    Bolt and lever guns CAN be run very effectively. Having said that, I'm not giving up my semi auto rifles.
    The truth can only offend those who live a lie.

    Are we talking about home defense, CCW in public, or a walk in the woods? I'd use something different for each.

    I'm thinking a j frame, an 8 shot revolver and several lever actions in calibers to cover all the bases.

    Firstly, anybody that does NOT have a Red Ryder is a dad burn Commie. Second, I'm not worried about HD and semi auto's, I believe Im capable of going bang bang on a skinny in the dark of night with many other options. But Oh my Lord that would SUCK ARSE.

    Its a legit worry.

    Winchester 30/30 with Aimpoint on scout mount. Plus an 870.
