Be prepared to discuss belt fed weapons.

Well, it would be hard to chase on foot after the looters with such a heavy weapon. I would prefer mobility over entrenchment. However, If you could mount a .50 cal on your pickup truck, that might be useful.

Even against a mob, a single pistol would be useful. I doubt any of the thugs are willing to be the first ones to die. They’re cowards. At the first shot they’d beat feet for the door. But sure... a beltfed weapon would be handy.
