In addition to what I carry every day (SAK, Spyderco Spydercard, and whatever is clipped to my pocket) I would grab my Schrade Old Timer 125 OT.

First would be my Glock 19 and my .38 special pocket pistol, then my Helle HE30 and my Case 31SAB. I don't own any long guns but that will change shortly.

Very interesting topic! Over a career of nearly 50 years I have asked many people this question when affected by both hurricanes and forest fires.
Almost without variation the ladies select photos and various memorabilia. Men are almost universal in answering "hunting and fishing stuff".
In the face of some sort of violent outbreak,(and we are not immune to this you know) at my age I believe I'd plan on boarding up and hunkering down here at the house, at least until Mitch got here!
I'd count on my Sig 228 and my Dad's 1911 to get the job done. I'll have my Winchester model 12 in 12 gauge setting nearby as necessary.
Again, good topic, good question! ::tu::

I'd have this

and this

Probably have this as well

And most likely one or all of these
Image

Image

Image

Depends mostly on, how quick, how light, how fast, and how far I have to go.

Oh Zed, it's a family tradition where I'm from

Those are my late uncles Ally (L) with a Mod 95 Winchester Saddle Ring Carbine in 30 US Gov't 1903 (which I still have and it will shoot 30-06 ammo) and Uncle Don sittin in the buggy. Picture was taken between '41 and '45.

Willie,
Those are some fine looking cowboys, and I don't mean the drugstore kind! I was curious to know where that photo was taken. It looks a lot like home. ::tu:: 8)

A gps, cell phone, phone numbers of my 6 best bros, Richard Nixon's social security number & coordinates to my hidden lair! ::sneaky::
Oh yeah, and some of this stuff tossed in the vehicle ...

No cell phone or GPS for me.........I know where I'm going and I don't want anyone else to be able to track me through those electronic gyzmos. ::paranoid::

Here's what I plan on having close at hand.

That was taken down in the Carrizzo Springs/Del Rio area.

Those two were tougher than wet leather. Had to be to get by in that country.

I like simple in tight situations... so

Ruger Blackhawk in .357 with some hand loads of my own... I have a Lever Action in the same caliber and a 12 gauge double, all of which fit my saddle well. I have a couple straight blades I made and would take a harness jack as well as a tomahawk. Covers any critters here about, 2 or 4 legged. Not to sound all survivalistst nut case, but I do have some gear stashed at the back of the property where I would head. Plenty of good water and shelter far from any road, nobody is going to find it or us...

hmm.....for things that make noise, I would take along the SAR-1, the Winchester 1200 defender, the Winchester .30-30 ......and the Browning Hi-Power. For cutting - probably just throw one of my knife rolls in.....they are all near 100 years old - figure they will still get the job done.

For traveling light, my GEC...in my pocket, Treeman on my belt and a Colt on my hip...

Willie...I'd grab my M1 Garand on the way out the door... :wink:

Owd Wulie: Like your entire selection and especially the HI Power. I so much prefer steel frames and among those, the Hi Power is tops. My long gun choice would be my minty WWII Carbine. Not much "umph!" I realize but I increasingly favor light weight.

On my ruck I'd carry my BK&T Reinhardt Kukri. On my belt a Spivey Sabertooth. In my pockets, a Crenshaw saddle horn trapper; also a Queen/Dan Burke Large Barlow.
