Discounting thumbs, I'd opt for keeping the (1) left hand index finger, (2) right hand index finger, and (3) right hand middle finger (because it comes in so handy at times).
That Third Gun

Well, some thumbs couldn't be lopped off cause they are being utilized by plugging the hole in the arse.
Are you serious? C'mon people, lighten up, you can't be so literal all the time.
Geeze
You have chosen two firearms to keep or take with you wherever your heart desires, for whichever reason your imagination can conjure up, what is that third one?
Maybe you don't want three, maybe you only want two or just one, maybe you don't want none at all. Maybe you want to take them all.
What my curiosity was when I initially asked the question was what would be the third firearm you'd take or keep or is your third favorite.
But after all this, I don't much care what your third gun is.
Talk about crashing a party, peeing on cheerios, bringing someone down, crashing and burning, car wrecks, lost dogs, divorces, drinking problems, etc., etc.
I'm going to go into a closet now and start pulling out my hairs......one at a time. :banghead:

Yes. I also ate lead paint chips as a kid.
The thing is, as I'm sure you know, we have these discussions weekly. Lots of subjective questions without much substance. this thread appeared to me to just want to ask about SHTF, EOTWAWKI, WROL (or whatever the current substitute happens to be) without asking about them directly. The lack of context, to me, seemed like you were unwilling to ask the off topic question, so it was phrased in a way to avoid it.
It took you to post #27 to finally get around to making the point that should have been presented in post #1. then you decided to whine about it, throw a tantrum about how you really don't care anymore. Close the thread if you don't care.

This is easy. First, Id get another identical Glock, then Id work on another identical AR. You cant have "just one" (or two, or three...) of any of them, everything needs spares/back ups.
Once you have that worked out, then you can move along to trivial things.

Very entertaining thread.
Had to check the OP location.... NE Afghanistan. Sorry dude, but from reading this thread my guess woulda been "Mom's Basement."
IMO forget the third gun and get some trauma plates that will defeat multiple rear hits from a .338 Lapua...
And keep yerself safe, ya hear?

My first gun was a .357 magnum service revolver.
My second was an iron-sighted .22 rifle.
My third was a defensive shotgun.
Given my suburban lifestyle, I will never need another gun. The shotgun lets me make hits with slugs out to about 80 yards and I can't imagine ever having to shoot even that far. Anything else I buy from this point will either be for fun, or for ideological reasons (a centerfire rifle for symbolic 2A reasons, for example.)

I have to agree with USAF_Vet. It's a weird question at best. Post a weird question on an open forum, you're gonna get appropriate answers. Don't like them? It's worth at least what you paid for them so there's no reason getting all huffy over it.
So we are not permitted to discuss #1 and #2, only #3? Is it our #3 or your #3? Do we discuss our original #3 or the #3 we would pick today? I was 12yrs old when I got #3, what the hell did I know then???

Sorry, Amprecon. Some people are just ridiculous.
Bobson's post was dead-on.
There wasn't really anything to be said beyond that and MTH's string of posts was just for the sake of argument.
It's unfortunate that if you don't PHRASE your question perfectly or know every single thing there is to know about what you're "asking a question" about, you're going to get berated and then the 'pack' mentality kicks in and the rest of em just come out of the wood work.
If a question sucks and nobody's interested in it, it'll fade without responses and be gone.
If somebody has absolutely 'nothing' better to do, though, they'll start insulting you and continue for the sheer pleasure of joining together in a good gang-bang of the new member or the person without some type of lame seniority here.
I apologize for the members of this forum that shame it.
It is otherwise a really interesting forum.

Either the shotgun or 22 LR are great choices as your third firearm. It's up to you. I'd make the 4th whatever you don't choose for the third. I'd make the third and fourth purchases close to one another so I wouldn't agozine too much about it.
