So /k/ I've been thinking about putting together a "car kit" and could use some advice. Bear in mind this isn't an urban survival setup. I'm not prepping for an unlikely scenario where i'm going to war with gangsters in the hood like the punisher. More like an "oh shit my car broke down in the middle of nowhere and I may be stuck here for a couple days and there have been black bear and mountain lion sightings close to here recently" kind of situation.
(1) What would be the better combo? long gun in 22 and handgun of higher caliber or 22 handgun and higher caliber long gun? Or should both weapons be of same caliber?
(2) Must be relatively inexpensive and rugged as it will be packed into the trunk of a vehicle for emergency purposes. It'll likely sit in the trunk of a vehicle for most of a lifetime with little cleaning or usage. I was thinking maybe a break action long gun and revolver? Opinions?
(3) If higher caliber long gun is the better choice would a rifle or a shotgun be better? or a combo gun maybe?

ok, so i'm looking at a mosin at a local gun shop. i haven't seen one this nice before. they want 200 bucks. only numbers that match are the bolt and the reciever, which as far as i'm concerned, are the only parts that need to match. what other things should i look for in a mosin? it's an izhevsk with occasional tula parts. good condition. should i buy or no?

Hey /k/, not shitposting. this is legit right now and I could use some help.

I've always been the kind of guy who had fun going to gun ranges with friends but never owned one myself. Just was kind of blissfully ignorant of the world around me and didn't think I really needed one for my own protection.

Well now I have a psychopath who is actively hunting down me, my mom, and my two brothers and I don't know what to do. I've got a knife but I know that won't do shit against him because this guy is an ex-cop but was kicked off the force for his erratic behavior.

I could give the full story if you guys want but the basics are that this guy has nothing, my mom felt bad for him so she treated him nice, and he tried to force himself on her and luckily I was there to pull him off but he says he'll be back.

I need a gun to protect my mom and my two brothers but I've never fired a handgun before. Only stuff like shotguns, rifles, etc... what should I buy to deal with this asshole should/when he comes back?

so let me ask you this /k/
i want to get a suppressor for my 10mm. i like the silencerco osprey 40 but im worried that the increased pressure of the 10mm would be too much for a suppressor made for a .40, does it even matter? do they make suppressors specifically for 10mm? help me out /k/

Need you guys' help! I'm looking to get myself m1. I'm going for either inland or plainfield. How many carbine bros are out there? I need to know the reliability (not buying GI). Also how well do the 15 and 30 rounders work on them?

You guys have any stories of dumbasses at ranges, In-laws, kids, or Whiskey Tangos, doing stupid shit with guns?

>Be 21
>take whiskey tango in-law to range
>claimed to shoot all the time
>pull out the Winchester model 94 (family heirloom)
>clear it
>hand him the box of ammo
>"go ahead and shoot it all you want"
>turn around to grab mossberg 500 so I can shoot it
>click
>leaver
>click
>leaver
>click
>"Dude, wtf are you doing?"
he says
>"I think its broken"
>you gotta load it...
>take the 30-30 away from him
>load the mossberg and hand in to him
>load the 30-30 for myself
>he pulls the trigger.
>he didnt cock it.

I eventually tried to teach him how to use them but he just kept screaming at me about how he knew how to do it. I think I emasculated him. After he started screaming like a bitch I packed my shit and left.

What's the oldest gun you own? Do you shoot it regularly, or do you worry about damaging it?

Brand new barrel from factory, I cleaned the bore like any other new gun. HOLY SHIT it was dirty, like, filthy. The first few dry patches were coming out black. Not dark grey. 100% black as black gets. Got it wet wet with oil, then bore brushed, and dry again, until dry patches came out white. I cringe at the thought of shooting a new gun before cleaning it. Every firearm I've bought new was dirty to some degree but this thing was bad. And it was a different sorting of packing grease lube that I've seen before. Weird stuff.
