Guns, Dogs and Blades QnA

Cool little pieces. I guess the thing I look for is the intended function. If it's truly to use as a "survival" rifle then the stock-packed one in a pistol caliber is handy. That being it is compact, can be a single caliber across hand and long gun, easy to toss into a pack but not intended for immediate use.

Otherwise, weight and dimensions matter. Long movements with rifle and pack can be a challenge so weight matters. carrying additional .22 rimfire ammo is almost negligible if you're just tossing an extra box of 100 somewhere.
excellent points

i think the 9mm is a more rounded caliber (not to mention the kel-tec uses glock magazines, so if he doesnt mind carrying one of those as a pistol the cross over is even easier)


as for packing, the Henry is 3.5 pounds, empty
the kel-tec is 4.25


they both have 16.25 inch barrels, so size is about the same
