Which one of these would you take into a long urban combat?

Out of these common guns which would you take into a long dirty urban combat, plz pick one of these, I know most of you probaly have some tight gun better than all these or you have a freakin .50 caliber machine gun barried in you backyard j/k but plz just chose from this selection.

And you have 2,000 rounds in a backpack, and your going to be in the woods, and passing through nasty creeks and stuff, also running through citys and stuff.

Remington .30/30
Marlin .30/30
Regular cheaper type of Ak/47 (romainian or what not)
Mini 14
Cheaper typed SKS
.243
bolt shotgun 12ga
semi-shotgun 12ga
Uzi

Ak 47 and 12 ga pump...for urban.....not realy many long shots. But it also depends on the area you plan to be in. IN a worse case..Chinease invadeing situation....were I live in florida 100 yard shots would be very rare unless shooting down a high way. If your looking at the middle east,...or some place were distances can be expected to be longer then other rifle/calabers would be better.

Doglips probably means Remington 30 caliber. I'd take the Rem. 30-06 because of it accuracy and killing power. :nod:

Sniper I could not beleive how many boards there are out there that talk about, SHTF, Doomsday, When the Government comes. Scenario this and scenario that. I'll worry about it IF and when it happens. Until then why worry about it. And on another note I do beleive everyone should have a disaster kit and a plan. There is always the chance of natural disasters and everyone should have something in the wings ready to go to.

I agree totally with your observation. Though it just struck me as odd, that on more than one site, recently, there are several new members/posters who are asking some of the very same stuff. And it usually is about obscure/high priced weaponry, or automatic/assault/.50 cal stuff.

Not generally the normal run of the mill gun nut conversation.

I am either becoming more paranoid or they are in fact. out to get us........

Hey Rufus and Lenny, you guys got an extra seat on the short bus??

First of all I can't really talk about noobs, because I still am kinda one, but I think that most of the ones asking about that kind of stuff are just takeing a deep look into americas future and don't like what they see.

I'd pick a FAL or L1A1 but it wasn't an option.
