The Apex of Firearms
There is a plethora of information on the web regarding firearms and there application in SHTF and defense scenarios. It is of our opinion that if you are going to survive there is one weapon system that might see you through the other side. It is known that many Americans have stock piled a diverse amounts of ammo, pistols, revolvers, shotguns, and rifles. Recent firearm sales have broken records. Unless you are supplying an army, buying as an investment/collector, when it comes right down to it, "what if your location becomes compromised?" How much of it do you plan to carry? What weapons system is your go to? We have it set up to only grab one gun.
The go to primary weapon system that we believe is the overall best for SHTF/TEOTWAWKI/WROL/APOCALYPSE and having owned many BRs, ARs, rifles, pistols, revolvers; the tactical-combat pump action shotgun is our primary weapons system. It has been for decades and find it to be the best overall weapons system for a prepper/survivalist/sheep warrior.

| Simple and effective combat shotgun. |
This is why!
• Ease of use
• Reliability - Based on over 100 years of development.
• Availability of a wide range of ammunition - From bird shot, buckshot, slug, flechette and sabot, to specialty ammo from non lethal to very exotic along with low recoil to magnum power rounds making a single weapons platform a definite force multiplier. This system can even be a launcher with blank rounds to launch a grappling hook or other ordinance.
Your personal load-out should have a few of each dictated by your own personal intelligence of the situation at hand. An ammo load-out is about a total of 25 to 50 rounds depending on your capabilities of weight management. Use of a tactical vest or equivalent to carry a load-out of shot shell carrier card for ease of acquisition extra shot shells is critical.
• Ammunition reloading components are widely available and easy enough to even reload with basic tools by hand in the field if necessary.
• Firepower!
• Tough!
• Accessories - User customization with accessories including easy barrel change outs, choke systems, light systems, sight systems, carry systems, ammunition holders, hardware and adjustable furniture configurations.
A combat pump shotgun in a survival situation is the ultimate hunting system for the survivalist from small game to the largest North American game such as elk, moose and even big bears.
The combat pump shotgun is a one man army weapons system; in a SHTF scenario you can only handle one weapon system at a time. The combat pump shotgun with its ability to handle and cycle such a wide diverse ammunition loads, fulfills every need that you may face that requires a firearm!
In a survival situation it is unrivaled. For defense, security, engage close quarter targets to engaging targets up to 300 yards. (For those who doubt the long range capability check out YouTube channel Hickok45 shooting a smooth bore shotgun with a common 12 gauge foster slug at 230 yards. It is impressive)
In a bug out situation,* the combat pump shotgun is my go to weapon system with the knowledge of the aforementioned it is a weapon system that I know I can deal with any situation requiring the need of a firearm.
Remember, preserve life, and defend the weak. Love your countrymen!
*This is a last resort. Bugging out after the SHTF is precarious and extremely challenging. It is best to have planned routes to secured locations that are a primary, secondary and tertiary with caches along the way. Get involved in a like minded group to increase survival odds.
A full load-out of 12 gauge ammo is heavy; (This goes for any preference of weapon system as well as other supplies) 100 rounds of 2.75 inch 9 pellet 00 buck, just under 10 pounds equivalent to 10 magazines of .223/5.56mm respectively . It is already known, that many will talk about the possibility of engaging in a firefight, but remember the majority of ammo expended in such a scenario is suppression. To which, 100 rounds of 00 buck is 900 projectiles of .33 caliber 53 grain shot within a typical 100 yard range of contact engagement suppression compared to just 300 projectiles with a heavy load-out of .223/5.56mm.

Get That Shotgun Out of the Closet!
Get That Shotgun Out of your Closet!
Why you need to get that tactical shotgun out!
Decades ago, I had a side business for hauling and moving to earn extra cash. I had many clients who at the last minute would call me up to help move their belongings out of a residence into a U-haul or moving company trucks. On numerous occasions, clients would be in a rush and ask that I would just fill up the big moving boxes with their cluttered closet items. Too numerous are the times I would come across firearms stuffed behind boxes of clothes and junk. The clients would react in surprise as they would claim, "I forgot I even had that in there!" Commonly, it was a loaded 12-gauge pump shotgun--the common core weapon for home defense.
These common events got me thinking--If you really were a target for home invasion, it would be all over but the crying!
The question is, how many of you out there have the same cluttered mess of closets. Be honest with yourself. We are all guilty of stuffing our closets and closing the door to deal with it at some point in our lives.
In the U.S., over one third of households have guns. There are millions of shotguns sitting in closets waiting to be called upon in case of a life threatening event. There are high numbers of shotgun ownership; unfortunately, only less than one percent actually have it easily accessible and have trained proficiently with it for defense.
Get your shotgun out of the closet! Re-orient yourself with your primary core defense weapon. Defending yourself and loved ones is your responsibility and NOT THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE POLICE. Get to your local gun range and practice. Don't know what you are doing? Seek professional help with a certified NRA instructor! Many ranges actually hold group classes for minimal cost and sometimes they are free! This will build comradery and form an excellent knowledge base to appreciate your home defense shotgun. For your house, train yourself, as well as qualified loved ones to use the shotgun.
Put your weapon in a conspicuous secure location where a clear, quick ease of access is suitable. Keep the weapon in a secure mount. The secure mounts have many type of lock systems from simple keypad to bio-metric readers.
This is great if you have small children in the house.
Regardless, the weapon serves no purpose acting as clothes hanger in a closet where it may be loaded and could ultimately be more dangerous to you and your loved ones than any home invader.
