I have had a long-time list of weapons to be purchased, basically for household of 6.
I have 3 AR15's, 3 AK47's, 1 Glock 17, 1 Mossberg 500, 1 Hipoint 9mm carbine, 1 Keltec Sub2000 9mm carbine, a FNS SCAR-17(.308), a DPMS LR-308, and a Ruger 10/22 Takedown(22LR).
This is considering the possibility of a Hillary victory in November and a potential gun ban...
700 sps aac tactical .308, another Keltec Sub2000, another Mossberg 500, 5 more pistols: 2 Beretta 92FS, Glock 22 (40S&W), Glock 30(45ACP), S&W Model 686 Plus Pro .357 revolver, one more Ruger 10//22 Takedown, 2 Henry Repeating AR-7's(22LR) and 2 Remington 597(22LR)
That is so I have 6 AR15/AK47, 2 shotguns & 4 PC carbines, 3 .308 rifles, and 6 22LR's & 6 pistols.
Of the list of stuff to be purchased, which ones should I buy first, in lieu of a possible ban, and which ones are LEAST likely to get banned?
Also, is there anything glaringly missing (IYHO) from my list?
Missing?
1,000 rounds per gun.

Anything that looks black and scary LOL.
I don’t plan to get much. I want to get my wife a handgun as she already has her LTC.
I’d like to get another large caliber rifle, something like a 30-06 but clip fed (less kick). I’d also like to get another tube fed .22 rifle.
That’s something I’ve seen varying opinions of. 1,000 rounds per gun sounds good.
I was also considering 10 full-capacity (e.g. 17-rnd for Glock, 30-rnd for AR15, etc) magazines for each weapon, with the idea of a loadout of 5 magazines, and 5 more loaded magazines in storage.
Right now I’m a bit shy of that... closer to 200-300 rounds per gun.
1000? Slacker. LOL!
Black and scary, LOL!
I always wonder what the gun grabbers opinion would be of my non-black FNH SCAR 17S in flat dark earth? That’s actually the only non-black gun I have... it stands out.
Do you own any magazine pouches? Load bearing vest or gear? What about a hydration pack? Slings?
Just some random questions.

Get mags, particularly for the 10/22, Ruger makes 25 round mags.
I’d go shotgun, 10/22, handguns, the rest, unless you’re in the country, then consider the long arms first.
This is just my opinion, you know your environment far better than I do.
What’s missing ? Ammo. Tons and tons of ammo. Her Thighness KNOWS she won’t succeed at a grab. But if she makes the ammo supply dry up. . . .she’ll call it a win. . . .
Get the AR-15s first. Those are increasingly in demand right now, and prices will probably go up. Also, consider the Mossberg 590 as opposed to the 500. Same basic action, but you can get it with a bayonet lug.
:^)
1000 rounds is ONE CASE of ammo for a Mosin. 10 cases (i.e. 8800 rounds) per rifle sounds about right. And those “Spam Cans” last forever. . .
Well assuming the worst case scenario. Hillary win, democrats take one or both houses on congress, an new anti-gun majority on the court. Then you’ve only got probably a 4 or 6 month window (counting the time until inauguration and how long it would take congress to debate and pass a gun ban). Possibly you might find a conservative federal judge who would put the breaks on it for longer.
I’m just hoping the gun manufacturers and ammo makers are running the mills triple shifts from now until that day and putting as many guns into private hands as possible between now and then, for every gun that goes into the public domain means another gun that will remain in circulation (whether legally or illegally) and make it harder for the government to ever try confiscation.
That’s a lot of different ammo to buy/find. I’d go with 2, 3 at the most for home defense. Get AR’s that are chambered for 5.56 so you can use .223 and 5.56. (Yes, the chambers are different for those who might not know, including the guy selling the guns.) Go with all 9mm handguns. Reduces your ammo stockpile needs to 2 highly available, reloadable rounds for defense. Other stuff like .22LR and hunting rifles for hobby. IMO, YMMV.
I have a MOLLE load-bearing vest (FLC). I have the Nalgene water bottle & carrier, multiple AR15 and M14 magazine pouches, etc, all in multicam, along with multicam Mechanix gloves, various headgear. Various slings. Ghillie suit built onto woodland BDU. Boots. Wiley-X 1004 ROMER ballistic shades.
Planning on getting plate carriers and ballistic plates, also PASQT or ACH for one ATN PVS7-3 night vision gogglesand 5 Armasight Nyx7-ID Gen 2+ night vision goggles.
Optics, include Russian nightvision & Nayvis 34 sight (Kobra light, basically).
Eotech 552 and 512 holosights, Eotech 3.2X slide-to-side scope, Aimpoint Pro (plan on 5 more), Vortex VMT 3x slide-to-side scope (plan on 7 more), Nikon M-308 for the SCAR-H (plan on 2 more).
Mainly though concerned with what will be banned, though.
Excellent.
I know folks with a pile of guns and a ton of mags and ammo, but not a single way to carry them other than range bags.
Well done.
Best,

I’d consider not posting what you already have. Probably not the time to be telling everyone you are as much as a threat as radical islam.
Just MNSHO.

But that’s prolly how I would do it. I’ve heard of some screwing the pooch so bad they had to have it machined open.
Well I HAVE 3 AR15’s and 3 AR15s... they are on the list of what I currently have.
The second Mossberg 500 I wanted to get is the Mariner one with a corrosion resistant Marinecote.
I have various weapons grouped together for different roles. E.g. Beretta 92FS and folding carbines (which fit in backpack) share the same mags. In a major disaster where the gov hands out food, those would be concealed, to avoid misunderstandings with troops but to avoid getting robbed after leaving with food.
In a situation where a portion of my family would have to go out together for an extended time into the elements, Mariner Mossberg 500, an AK47 or two, AR-7s & Ruger Takedowns.
AR15’s would be principally for outside the home, and the shotguns & PC carbines for inside the home.
You need some “clips”. I’m starting to get up a wish list in the event of a Hitlery victory. I try to have a coupla thousand rounds for every gun. I’m a white male Sunday school teacher who has never aimed a firearm at anyone with malicious intent, but I’m sure I will be targeted by Hillary. The only ones that will be protected from gun control will be jihadist ROP members!
It’s so simple what the dems and libtards(the same) will do. They will deny firearms to people on the “no fly” list.(a good idea on the face of it) Then they will place conservatives, political enemies, supporters of Israel, Christians, and any other of their enemies on the list. They will weaponize gun control like they have the IRS and BATF!
