My next gun.But can't decide on a manufacturer, etc.
I have a Bushmaster, and it is great. I bought it at the height of the 2nd Amendment scare, so I paid too much. Great gun.
I bought both my Colt AR's during the same time. Trying to sell them now is just painful, knowing how much I paid at the height of the scare.
Pretty good list, I think I would like a bolt action .22 and a good revolver in there too. Maybe a good .22 revolver also. Automatics are okay but wheel guns are real guns.

depends on which one...
AR-15 encompasses all iterations of the M-16...
M16, M16A1, M16A2..
I REALLY liked the M16A2, well other than the 3 round burst.. what fun was THAT??
But had a Grease Gun in back-up so that still got me my full auto fix..
But for a personal weapon the AR15 with bull barrel, better sights, and the improved ammo.. that would be a NICE addition..

for survival dont forget the high powered air rifle.
no gunpowder to worry about. ammo is super cheap and can carry a lot and can take all kinds of small game. i have a Gamo Big Cat... it does have a bit of a crack to it, but not as loud as a .22LR. with a decent 4 power scope you can take game at 50 yards. on bags mine has fist sized groups at that range. only downside to, say a semi-auto .22, is you dont get fast followup shots.
other than that i agree with the original list EmptyTimCup posted... keep in mind it would be good to have firearms that take common LE and military ammo.

Had the M16 in Basic/AIT (OSUT)...
M16A1 first couple of duty stations..
Then the M16A2.. NICE!! They didn't go mass production cheap, it was still mass production of course, but they actually put some money into a good design, and didn't scrimp on the production/ manufacturing.
Made Average marksman Good or Great marksman. 300 meter targets just weren't as challenging anymore.
Love to have the latest model in my closet..

The 12-gauge auto-loader.
That's italian. You can go pump or auto.
The .45 long slide, with laser sighting.
These are brand new, we just got them in. That's a good gun. Just touch the trigger, the beam comes on, you put the red dot where you want the bullet to go, ya can't miss! Anything else?
A phased plasma rifle in the 40 watt range.
Hey, just what'cha see, pal!
...The uzi nine millimeter.
Sure know your weapons, buddy! Any one of these is ideal for home defense.

Look at Colt and you'll feel better. If you go with the bull barrel, you don't have to go through and FFL. You can take it home that day.

I was referring to the price of a Colt compared to other brands. The Colt will make you feel good about a Bushmaster.
