Speaking generally, a reliable handgun in an established defensive cartridge that you can use well is a good choice for nightstand use. For me it’s a Glock 19 with night sites and a handheld light. I’ve also used a 1911 in 45 ACP and would be ok with that too as I shoot both well.

Congrats on the 1911. I’ve read on 1911 centric forums of Bul and seems like they have a smaller, but dedicated following. Or at least are well thought of. As I’m sure you already know, things like magwells and other 1911 parts can be made to work but almost always require some fitting on your...

My thoughts on the SKS. It’s a Communist military service rifle with notable history, and pretty robust design. They were a bargain for what they sold for in the 80’s and 90’s, and I’d probably enjoy shooting one if I had one. But I do not have one, and while I wouldn’t feel under gunned...

I’d find an open space to spray em dry then throw the cans away.

Congrats, OP! I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. This was a case of win/win for sure

1911 in 45acp Beretta 92 FS in 9mm Glock 19 in 9mm Glock 26 in 9mm Ruger 22/45 or similar variant in 22LR

Glock 26 iwb for edc. 1911 in a shoulder holster for riding atv’s, knocking around in the woods, or working property

History and rifle… awesome combo!

I like it! Nice rig, @3Crows

I’d lean Marlin 336 in 30-30 for this situation.

Loonwolf pretty well said it right. I’ve enjoyed my B14 Ridge. Good luck, OP

This. Agree 100% I also do not care for wearing ear pro for hours on end hunting, and I don’t like (especially during rut when the bucks are moving) donning ear pro and then rushing a shot. I’ve found a suppressed 18” barrel 308 win to be about as long as a standard length non suppressed 308...

I’m for people having the choice to open or conceal carry. I choose concealed.

I have one 30 cal suppressor on a 308 bolt action hunting rifle. That rig is zeroed with the suppressor on and with my hunting ammo and I would shoot it in the field or at the range with the suppressor on it. Mines not for the cool factor. I’m usually alone in the woods, and almost never go...

I voted AR. 60 some odd years of use and refinement, easy to configure, after market support is nigh unrivaled.
