Anyone Modified a Chipmunk or Cricket for Survival?

.22 LR is much cheaper, smaller, weighs less, and has more accurate range than .410.

We used to have admins that would control the chaos and prevent it from being a crap-show of a thread. Guess these days the admins pile on rather than control. Maybe change the name at the top to ar15.com next time you get around to it.

So as I asked before - has there EVER been an instance in the last 80 years in which a civilian survived any kind of disastrous event by retrieving any firearm, let alone a single shot 22LR, from a bag in the trunk of their car and subsequently hunted game for sustenance?

I would ask......"How many people DIDN'T survive a disastrous event because they didn't have access to a firearm".

It's like asking "How many swimmers drown" vs "How many nonswimmers drown".


Most importantly, if the disastrous event occurs on the U.S./Canada border.....where do they bury the survivors?

Sure, fair question:

How many people have died due to sudden, inescapable societal collapse because they did not have a modified single shot 22LR in a bag, in the trunk of their car in the last 80yrs of US history?

All of them.

All of them.

Could you name specifically any of these deceased folks which have died for lack of a single shot 22 in a bag in their trunk? And the natural disasters or sudden societal collapses which lead to their death?

Otherwise, it’s not a very cute joke.

Im trying to show why your question may not have an answer.
The US military sure as heck thought a "survival rifle" was necessary for aircrews.

Maybe you should ask them.

Reiterating the reiteration from page 5:

The US Military isn't the best use of appeal to authority just saying.

I can't see any way to salvage or clean this thread up, so I will apply the padlock.

Last I heard, cogent facts were useful, but I guess tart opinions have their place. (Not if you're trying to calm things down, of course- that would be when "just the facts" would be useful. )
