| I've got my 16" gun, I was just wondering if anyone has a 20" SHTF gun. I like the looks, Mobility in the car isn't a concern, because I would be mounting a collapsible CTR stock, so that would make up in compactness for the lengthy barrel. Just wondering what y'all thought? |
In most cases, it's unlikely that you'll need to shoot anything at more than 100-200m, as in SHTF, you'll be running away/hiding from "lootie" and his mates, not hunting down bad guys. A 20" would be overkill, IMHO. Then again, my personal SHTF weapon is a SMLE...  YMMV, etc.

I have a 16" and a 20" for SHTF. The 16" has all the fancy modern day gizmos on it. The 20" is KISS. It has a small fixed 2.5x attached to the carry handle and that's it. Well no, I'm sorry. It also has a magazine pouch on the stock. But nothing like Eo-Techs and Acogs. The 20" will do you fine just as a 16". Go in the classic ARFCOM tradition. Get Both! A firearm is better then no firearm. Unless you can throw a rock at 1,000fps and do it accurately and hit targets up to 600 yards away then I suggest you get a firearm. Whether it's a Hi-Point C9 or a Browning M2H. Something is better then nothing. |
