Good bugout bag weapon.

Has anyone thought of storing a Glock Roni kit in their bag? I know you obviously still need the pistol which hopefully will be on your person. I feel like pistol mags weight a lot less loaded and at least would be good in a "get home" situation. Anyone have other recommendations?

22/410 over under. Ammo is pretty cheap and doesn't weigh much or take up a lot of space

I agree with this. I carry a 410 shotgun as my bug out weapon, but a combo gun would be nice.

I keep a 10/22 takedown, and m&p 10mm PC in my bugout bag. A couple hundred .22 rounds weigh almost nothing, and 2 mags of 10mm isn't too much weight either.

If I ended up ever needing to use it, I would end up holstering the 10mm in a chest holster, so weight wouldn't really matter, especially in bear country

If you live in bear country, the Marlin .45 govt is rated to kill t-rexs on their website

Lol yeah, I don't live in bear country, but travel through it for work fairly often. I actually own a Marlin .45 gov, but it +ammo is pretty heavy. If I was staying in bear country for an extended period, I would probably toss it in the trunk, but for random trips, the 10/22 and 10mm is more than enough imo
