    Not in any particular order.
    1. Cimarron Schofield with a 5" barrell.
    2. Dragunov
    3. A Krink.
    4. A double stacked magazine Makarov.
    5. BAR.

    I thought of putting some of the more common bucket list guns like a Thompson machine gun or a Garand, but no. These are the ones I want.

    Well, after I win the Powerball and fill up my tank I may buy a few .22 LR guns.

    CZ 457 American
    Marlin 39M Mountie
    Browning BL22
    Talo-Ruger American stainless/walnut
    Winchester 9422 XTR

    Wait, I’m not done yet!

    Looks like the CMR30 is on a few people's wish list.

    Could you explain what advantages it has over a simple .223 center fire rifle?
    Once .22LR rim fire rounds are expended, how are you going to reuse them? So your Survival Time for you & Yours is limited to the rounds you carry & expend? Perhaps you should think about reloading the rounds you currently carry & expend to do it at least ten times again before giving up the ghost. JMHO!!!!!!

    Preplanned Failures, like Preplanned Tactics, all lead to the same road!

    How important are:

    Runway behind you?
    Altitude above You?
    Number of rounds you have expended?
    KIA's on your resume?

    I'll allow others to interject.

    Got the message?????????????????????

    Perhaps it's time to report on the actuality of SHTF?
    So for every 7.62 x 51mm round you expend on an actual "Battlefield", you can expect to pickup at least a 5.56 Semi/Full Automatic rifle and at least 180 unexpended rounds.

    Battle Rattle for a 5.56: 210 rounds 7-30 round mags. Spoils of War retrieved by a single expenditure of 7.62 x 51mm 175 grain M118LR round. That's giving the opponent emptying harmlessly the 30 round mag chambered prior to you expending that initial 7.62 NATO round. JMHO.......LOL LOL LOL.

    I want some cowboy guns. A 92 winchester or copy there off. Couple cowboy revolvers, a buffalo gun, double shotgun and also a sliver saddle, because when I was little all of cowboy characters had silver saddles.

    I can't think of 5 at this point. Over the years I have bought and sold so many guns I can't remember all of them. Some I've kept, but many others were tried and ultimately sold....some with later regret, but I've reacquired examples of the ones I really missed. The only one that comes to mind that I'd like to have now is a S&W Model 952 6", but I have never been able to justify the cost in my mind, so I guess I can live without it.

    I have most everything I need firearms related. I do have a 1873 Winchester 44-40 (circa 1891) that is an old family heirloom. I have thought about sending it to Turnbull and having it restored. I have read where the turn around is about a year, and I would have to sell my spare tire and collect some aluminum cans and more to be able to afford it....Oh well.

    Ignore my false start earlier. I was listening to Hannity

    .22 lr rimfire can be reloaded, but it is not worth the time or trouble.

    Wait, I’m not done yet!

    I already own a 1973 Marlin Original Golden-39M (Father's gun) or that would have been on my list. It's the gun I learn to shoot with. This sling has been on it since 1973 also.

    The CMR30 is a 30 shot 22 mag, but in relation to your question- its a game getter / fun rifle that still has relatively available ammo at fair pricing. 16 inch barreled 22 mag is no slouch. Im sure it would work for home defense as well. Paired with the PMR30 pistol it would be a practical solution as they use the same mags.. No, I don't plan on rappelling thru a skylight to save the president of the NRA from armed space squid gun grabbers.
