Firearms Primer for Preparedness

MD Creekmore sends along a concise primer on the different types of arms one may consider in their preparedness training:

Firearm Preparedness Primer

It's a pretty comprehensive look at the many different options available, and well worth a look for someone new to firearms as a "Reader's Digest Condensed Version" of what's out there. Any one of the categories could (and often is) a tome unto itself, and this primer delivers a quick overview. Long arms, handguns, and ammunition is covered, as well as training one might need.

Well worth a read!

That is all.

That was a good read but there is one more addition for when the SHTF.

Air rifle. These are great for easy practice. A good one can put small game on the table or deal with pests and vermin. Ammo is cheap, and most decent spring guns and pump-ups are accurate and offer the power needed while conserving potentially scarce ammo. They are also quieter.

As a defensive arm, not so much but
looking at a piece of pine with a pellet buried in it I'd rather not test being a target.
