Guns, Dogs and Blades QnA

OK, if you have a 12 gauge and a fullsize pistol in 9mm, would you say that's enough to defend, or what would you get next?

Smaller handgun for conceal carry or a rifle for hunting and distance self-defense? I don't hunt, but I can if I have to in SHTF mode... and I'm getting a vibe. If a rifle, recommendations?

Or my favorite, just put the money into getting the old Valiant on the road?

Thanks!


I bought a Taurus TX22 compact almost two years ago and love it. It’s my go to now and first to grab on range days. I have a couple Rugar Mark II that used to be my first to grab but I can’t remember the last time I shot them. I have 5-6 virgins sitting hear that are begging to have the dust knocked out of them.
