Not talking SHTF tin foil stuff. Considering your location and needs, what would it be?

Mine would be a 12ga. 870 Wingmaster, full choke, synthetic. Not ideal for anything, but okay for everything.

I'll play. 444 marlin, because the only thing I really hunt/shoot around here are hogs once and while.

Thinking about it for a minute, for hunting, I'd like to have a nice German made combo gun. 12 ga over a '06. Probably a bit heavy, but I could live with it.

Marlin 1894c in 38/357. It will drop any game in my state, defend the home and not destroy small eating game. Ammo ain't heavy either.

If pressed to settle on one, 12g mossberg500 would present the most options for me as well. (Especially if I could keep the additional muzzleloading barrel!) If big game hunting were off the table I'd settle on the .22 marlin 39M just for sentimental reasons.
Quit giving in inch by inch then looking back to lament the mile behind ya and wonder how to preserve those few feet left in front of ya. They'll never stop until they're stopped. That's a fact.
