I hear ya. I collect gear like other people collect stamps. Organizing it all is a never ending bitch.
RRA LAR-PDS pistol in 5.56
Short, small, light and 100 meters is an easy target. Anything further and im going the other way anyways.
Bug out for me is survival mode with zero engagement if possible. Just get to mommas house for one more glass of mommas sweet tea and maybe a homemade blueberry pie is all im shooting for.

I've always liked the idea of single action revolver/Lever gun combos in matching caliber (.357, .41, .44, .45lc, etc.). Seems less inconspicuous but just as deadly...Super reliable, powerful, simple, accurate and ammunition for all the pistol/rifle calibers can range from mild to wild.
Give me a Blackhawk and Jm stamped Marlin in matching caliber.

In the run-up to Y2K (remember that non-event?) I purchased a Gen1 alloy frame Sub2000. It's so old it uses S&W 59 mags. Modified a briefcase to hold it and 5 20rd mags (30s stick out of grip too far). Found a police trade-in 59 and used Kel-tec P11. 4 extra 15rd for 59, 2 extra 10rd for P11 and I was 20th century ready to rock. Beauty of the system, other than the short 10rd, all mags interchange between all guns. Still got it all and exercise them occasionally.
Could still be my go to at TEOTWAWKI.
I have finally made a choice....
Drumroll....
Sig 556XI in .223/5.56
Fell in love with it at Clyde's Armory in Athens. I was there to pick up....
Another Drum roll please....
A Sig P320C w/night sights in .45!!!
Consequently, I am in love with this pistol as well.

Look at some of the Keltec SU line of rifles. They fold up and are really rilliable with a piston gas system, lite, and have storage for extra mags. I had one and sold it like a like a dumb ass. One of the fastest shooting guns I have ever shot and they have come down in price immensely since they were introduced. A really cool weapon for folding down and throwing in a back pack. Pair that with a really nice 1911 side arm and call it a day. Then sit back and wait for the apocalypse.
I've looked at the Keltec, and yeah it's pretty good, but I've already put the 556xi on layaway. I couldn't resist and the reviews on the 5.56 model were great. Maybe after I get out of debt on this one...Look at some of the Keltec SU line of rifles. They fold up and are really rilliable with a piston gas system, lite, and have storage for extra mags.
