Four Calibers

[FSTC]

If you could own ONLY firearms chambered in just four calibers/gauge.

What calibers/gauge would you choose?

(since Zappa pointed the gauge technicality, I'll ask for a bonus caliber)

And for the bonus: add one obscure caliber (ones not usually found in gun shops, dsg, or wal mart)

But then again, that IS all I own. For now anyway.

 

[MisterHappy]

Is NES anti diversity? WRT chamberings, at least?

 

[edhead35]

.308, 45, 12g, 22lr - Mostly because they are common and I love these calibers.

If I dont have to worry about ammo cost/availability, .308, 10mm, 12g, .22lr

 

[rabbid]

22LR
9mm
5.56mm
12gauge

yup.

 

[bob68]

.22, 357, 45 acp, and 12 gauge.

 

[ChevyGuy91]

22LR
9mm
5.56mm
12gauge

This.

 

[Zappa]

.22LR, 9mm, .357 & .308

Shotguns don't count because they're gauges not calibers

A more realistic question for this group would be, "if you could only have four guns in each caliber, what would they be?"

 

[Dench]

.357 Sig
12 Gauge
5.56x45mm
7.62x51mm

 

[Retired-LEO]

.22LR,
9mm,
.357 Magnum &
.45acp

 

[rabbid]

Shotguns don't count because they're gauges not calibers

except .410, but I'd rather bend the rules and stick with 12 gauge

 

[loki32687]

But all I own is .22lr, 9mm, and 7.62x39. I guess toss in 5.56

 

[chinalfr]

12 gauge
S&W 500

I have weapons in two other calibers, but neither of them are obscure enough to be my bonus caliber That's too bad, because I really like those guns.

 

[Mr Weebles]

22LR
9mm
5.56mm
12gauge

Same for me but I'd replace the 12ga with .308 WIN.

I can live without a shotgun.

 

[rudiewhitebwoy]

• .22 LR
• .223
• .45 ACP
• 12 Ga

Bonus Obscure Caliber; 7.62 x 54R or .50 Beowulf

 

[StevieP]

I have the same list as some have suggested:

9mm
5.56/.223
22LR
12Gauge

No, really. Those are what I have.

If we could extend the list, I'd add .45ACP, .308, and maybe 6.8SPCII as my 'exotic.' At least, those will probably be next on my "to get" list.

From there, I'd start doubling up on some (different 9mm and/or 45), before moving on to stuff like .458 SOCOM. By then I'll be reloading....

Bonus: .257 Roberts Ackley Improved. Yes I have one.

 

[excoastie]

50 BMG

Obscure = 7.62 X 25

 

[Mbous]

.22LR
12ga
9mm
5.56mm

If I could I would add also .308, 7.62x39, and .45

 

[jaypap]

Trick question, no one owns only four.

If I had to do it I would say 22LR, .357 magnum, .45 A.C.P. and .223.
