Just thinking today, for $2000 or less you can have 3 pieces of firearms that will cover all your needs for life saving and other survival scenarios :
-good quality pistol or revolver for personal/home defense , up to $800
-semi-auto rifle for both hunting and SHTF situations, up to $800
- shotgun for home defense/ hunting $300
Heck, $800 nowadays is just a cost of labor at car dealership for timing belt change.
The only problem with owning guns, is that 3 mentioned above are usually not enough for average owner, you always want more when shooting becomes hobby.
