  • If you could only have one gun for the end of the world, would it be a single shot shotgun for the 1970's? We make a case for it in this video. Could this single shot shotgun be the ultimate survival shotgun?

    On my survival shotgun I drilled the stock out to hold a rifled 10 inch long 9 mm adapter and 4- 9mm shells. Then added a side shell holder. Then put a 9mm magazine pouch on my sling to carry more 9mm shells in a pistol mag. Also left out one of the butt stock screws so the butt plate can swing to open for access to the barrel adapter. It's a small package. Almost forgot, there is a styker and small compass in the stock too!

    In Fallout New Vegas, there is a break-action single-shot shotgun much like this. It's bottom tier and you replace it with an over-under double-barrel first chance you get, but personally I feel that tactically, in a situation where ammunition is scarce and ultimately limited unless you somehow get a source of powder, primers and whatnot, having something that encourages low-consumption is utmost.

Being allowed to carry pepper spray, would of saved some people in certain situations. But no i don’t think uk citizens should be allowed to carry firearms. And anyone who thinks CS gas or pepper spray is a firearm is delusional.do good and be safe.👍

I learned how to control a vehicle on a motorcycle, which I believe is the best way.

My older brother regularly used it for rabbit hunting in the 50s & 60s. It passed into my hands a few years back, and is still in good condition, despite its age. I havn't hunted in years, but it's fun at the local shotgun range. Having seen this video, I'm now slightly envious and wishing it was of a larger, adapter-capable caliber.

    My first long gun was a Savage 24C. It was an over-under with a 20guage bottom barrel and a 22LR top barrel. It came apart easily into two pieces, the longest only 24inches; short enough to fit in a backpack. I loved that gun. A few years later I came across a used slightly rusted Savage 24V at a yardsale for $20. It was .357 magnum over 20gauge. From Shotgun News I bought a couple of barrel sleeves, one short one chambered for .45Long, the other 20 inches long for 30-06. That one had a tiny removable chamber bushing that converted the 30-06 to 7.62 Nato. With those 2 rifles I could fire all the 22 ammo, and .38, .357, 45ACP, 45Long, 30-06 and 7.62 Nato, as well as all the 20gauge shotgun rounds. I had a Colt Mk IV Government Model and an HK 91 for self defense. These days, I don't own any guns.

    Good call Jason! The ammo saving, versatile, hole blastin’ single shot. I grew up in Boston (before getting the hell out of there and movin’ up north) and my first firearm of any sort, was a Stevens single shot 12ga. You can back up over it with a tank and it’ll still run. No school, like the old school! Oohra Big

    On my survival shotgun I drilled the stock out to hold a rifled 10 inch long 9 mm adapter and 4- 9mm shells. Then added a side shell holder. Then put a 9mm magazine pouch on my sling to carry more 9mm shells in a pistol mag. Also left out one of the butt stock screws so the butt plate can swing to open for access to the barrel adapter. It's a small package. Almost forgot, there is a styker and small compass in the stock too!

    Before Ted Williams, Sears called their sports equipment J.C. Higgins. They even made handguns with that name on them.
    While I never got into shotguns, I do like the break action rifles. When they were still available I obtained a H&R Handi Rifle and 4 extra accessory barrels. So now I have bull barrels for .223 and .308 and standard barrels for .22 Hornet, .30-30 and .44 Magnum. To make them more versatile, I have single action revolvers in the three calibers that have standard barrels. The only problem is that handguns in .22 Hornet and .30-30 are only available as the expensive BRFs. But it's great to get things while you still can. I also have a couple of other H&R break actions: a .22 RF and a .58 caliber muzzle loader. I sure miss that company.

      I had a old stevens over and under chambered for the 234 and 3 inch and 22 sl and lr. My buddy a gunsmith figures was 40s or 50s era . The barrel had enough meat that he bored it out to accept 22 mag which my bud makes little 22 mag snake rounds for me too . My granpa said he had a factory one years ago and that same 2 rounds fed their family in some awfully lean years. He said he shot 2 deer with it and as the 22 mag was subsonic often the deer would flick its hide ...maybe lift his head and look around then resume eating. They would bring a few rolled smokes and have a smoke after the shot and usually the deer would just lie down and theyd share another and that would be it . Having been lung shot they bled out never knowing they were shot and likely werent even suffereing all that much as they seemed really quite calm. His was not able to take the full 3 inch shot/slugs in 410 but the smaller it did and again he took a deer or two with those as well. One can surmise that the nearly half inch chunk of metal from the 410 isnt much to sniff at so to me this makes this tiny ultra light and fairly short over under the ultimate all round gun and although mine aint pretty and is showing its age its acurate and i cant recal a year it hasnt surprised me . Id reach for the stevens if all hell cut loose and id have to pack something and provide or defend. Also in a house to house the 410 is awesome as you kill the bad guy/s not the badguys, your 2 kids, the neighboor , etc. Awesome home defence weapon compared to defender everyone thinks is best ..ill take the stevens again.

      I carry a 410 for survival purposes, the moment it dawned on me that 100 shells of 12 gauge or 20 gauge = 10 pounds. I can carry 250 rounds of 410 for the same weight. One can send off for a few adapters for the 410(such as 9mm), but not as many as one can for a 12 or a 20. Trade offs....

    I have a set of different shotgun, pistol and rifle caliber adapters. They include .22S/ .22L/.22 LR/.22mag,.22Hornet, .25ACP, .32, .38/.357, .44mag, .45ACP, .45LC/.410, .223, .28ga, 20 ga, and 16ga as well as an insert to convert a single shot 12ga to balck powder. Some of them came in a set together, others I got singlely and the .223 adapter was machined by a friend of mine. Some are only a couple of inches long and not rifled and those aren't very accurate and some are 3 inches long and have about an inch and a half of rifling and the .223 is three inches long and has an inch of rifling. Thaey are good in a pinch but it takes a few refresher rounds to remember where they shoot at. I use them in my old Eastern Arms .12ga and have .22s/.22L/.22LR/.22mag, .38sp, .410 and blackpowder adapters for my Savage single shot .20ga. I also have a box of bras cases in .12ga that I reload with blackpowder, both shot and ball.
