I never noticed that , that’s funny as hell! LolI know it's just a movie, but they are obviously at least trying to keep it realistic in a "Three Gun" kind of way. Isn't it convenient how the bad guys slow down their attack when he has the shotgun?
If you have to spend more time loading it than you do firing it, maybe not the best weapon for a gunfight.
Got to give Keanu props.
He went and got training for those movies.
Back on point.
Bug out gear can be get you home gear.

Chipmunk .22 and Heritage Rough Rider .22.
Chipmunk .22 was my first gun! That little single shot was awesome at 5-6 years old.
There are two things that need to be considered LONG before the SHTF: Your health and your training. If you're 75 pounds overweight popping blood pressure medicine, sorry, you aren't going to make it too long. If you've never field dressed a fresh kill, you're going to rely on other sources of food which will run out. If you haven't had medical training, you're not going to be able to dress a wound or set a break.
Honestly, the best hope for long term survival is to become part of a commune. No single person can do it all for long, there will have to be division of duties and leveraging of knowledge and resources.

I'm hoping neckbearding is a needed skill. Otherwise I'm ****ed.
Finally! Someone is starting to see the light!
Another often overlooked necessity is a hard cover library. There is a huge amount of knowledge that would be very helpful and, unless you train in it frequently, there is no way a person will remember it all. There are a lot of very good books and manuals available. The best way to use them is the get them, read them and make a list of equipment and tools that are recommended in them. Then start to accumulate those tools and equipment. Practice enough with them to make sure you get it and then put them in long term storage.
