Hello everyone!
I've been reading around these forums for quite a while now and I figured I should start being a part of the community here. This will be my first post, with many more to come (hopefully).
Anyway, I have read MANY threads concerning the dead horse topic of: What is the best SHTF rifle/shotgun?
I am looking into purchasing my first long gun and I would really appreciate everyone's input into this decision of mine. I don't have endless money, so I need to choose wisely.
With that being said...
I live in a suburban area, kind of a mix between a small town and a city. If there were to be a serious civil issue with any kind of shooting whatsoever (deer, people attacking me, etc.), it would be within 150 yards most of the time.
I am optimally looking for a good mix between durability/reliability and accuracy. I am fully aware that I cannot have the accuracy of a bolt-action hunting rifle with an AK 47.
So, please help me out everyone! What should I buy for a situation like mine? A saiga-12? The trusty AK? SKS? I'm not looking to spend more than $800, optimally.
Thanks for all future replies, and I hope to see everyone on the forums!
