Because 2 is 1, and 1 is none, apparently the number is 8.
Packing for our annual pig hunt with a good friend of mine on his lease in OK. Besides the normal hunting "stuff".
Rem M7 in .350RM (main pig gun from stands)
Rem 7600 in .358Win (pig gun IF we still hunt them or 2 man drives and I haven't had a chance to kill anything with it yet)
Rem M700 XCR "Tactical" in .223 because we might chase coyotes once the pigs are done.
Ruger 77 22LR because If we finish on pigs, and the coyotes don't cooperate, squirrels are open)
Benelli SBE 12GA because IF the squirrels don't cooperate, the coyotes don't come we're going crow hunting.
Browning GTI 12GA Because now we're going to get a round of sporting clays in on the days we don't hunt the above.
Colt King Cobra .22LR Because while we're not doing any of the above we're going to plink in his back yard.
HKP2000 in 357SIG, because now I have to travel armed to protect all of the above.
The "real" number is 2; primary and back-up, but since we're both retired army guys, every plan has multiple courses of action, branches and sequels. At one point I was a Support Platoon Leader and my friend Will was a Bn supply officer, so we both subscribe to the "If you don't know what you're doing, more is better" (as long as you're not humping it or swimming with it) mantra, we tend to over pack. It's the reason Crewcabs and 6.5' beds exist.
I'm actually thankful their quail season closed last week..
