You are traveling a long distance on a motorcycle and you won't always be sleeping under a roof. Your journey will take you across many borders, and because firearms laws can differ so much, it's best for you that any gun you have can be concealed, either in your pack or on your person. What gun or guns do you carry for survival and self defense?

My comfy all-weather outfit is a baja hoodie with a flecktarn parka over itSidearm is my tricked-out Jericho in a shoulder holster

>>62512139This was fun, gives more than just the guns to play with. >>62512154What is the bottom-right pic from?
>>62513120This one Swedish guy makes them, I don't know his name. Got the pic from /wg/
>>62512016FPBP. I still desperately want a 686.
Reminder to only read fan translations of Kino's Journey shitThe official translation of the first LN is fucking dogshit full of rewrites and the official translations of the manga (which sucks anyway) is full of they them bullshitThis translation is rough but it's probably the best available, but it's incompletehttps://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Kino_no_Tabi

Lahti L-35 and a navaja for daily carry.A LeMat rifle for a long gun.
Blessed thread. Anyway me good old beat 1911 45ACP for sidearm, a Dreyse 1907 as a bootgun, and a WASR-10 as my long gun. Just cuz it looks so good with the bayo attached.
ar15, 9mm, and a three piece suit.
>>62512139i ended up ignoring the futuristic part of the template, but i like how it came out
>>62516837>>62516612>>62516576Mucho basado
>>62516837You look equipped and ready to go look for cursed mummies in Egypt.
>>62513120The Mac shirt from always sunny is a nice touch. I made my brother the RIOT one.
I'm going to make the assumption that my vehicle has functionally infinite energy or runs on something easily obtainable regardless of the local tech level. I earn my keep in the various locales I visit via music skills (a la a bard), art skills (like drawing portraits for people in a pre-camera society), or my shooting skills. Flashbangs are for escaping dangerous situations non-lethally. Car has a charging cable for the DS, DS has a flashcart with anything you can feasibly run on a DS, plus e-books galore. Car is stocked with provisions and spare parts and I sleep in the seat when not in a town.

Going for a vaguely cold war aesthetic here
>>62511975Glock 17 and j frame
Comfy ass thread
>>625119755 shot j-frame in .38 with a 2 inch barrel.
>>62512139Would a buckler count as a sidearm, gear, or a misc. accessory here?
>>62526017Sidearm, I'd say
>>62526017For the purposes of the image? I'd say sidearm. Gear and misc would be things like camping supplies and tools
>>62511975The 20ga H&H, the engraved Smith, and the 78 Garelli moped are all heirlooms passed down from my grandparents to my parents to me. Exactly the kind of gear I'd want to take if I were setting out on an adventure, having some sort of feeling of "carrying my ancestors with me."This is a fun template, I kind of wish we had more stuff like this here
>>62511975
>>62511975We need more threads like this
Last time I went for a post apoc fedcore thingI currently have fallout on the mindbut I'll do something different and just go for chill aestheticsan idyllic swords to plowshares bliss where weapons are proudly carried and never used
made this as a shitpost but then I got emotional over it
>>62531026Clarkson no Tabi
>>62531530I know zombies have been done to death (kek) but I really like the idea of more “horror-core” inspired loadouts. The horror genre overlaps a lot with the SHTF/survivalist mindset popular in gun communities, and it would be cool to see more discussions of what loadouts you’d take with you to survive yharnam, or the village in resident evil, or a bunch of lovecraftian fish monsters
>>62533282I'd carry like 20 religious necklaces like that guy from The MummyAlso a trench shotgun, because you were probably king shit a thousand years ago when you were scaring retarded superstitious villagers with pitchforks, but your ass isn't ready for 12 gauge BB shot
>>62533491Reminds me of that scene from buffy when some ancient vampire demon thing wakes up after 2000 years, and taunts buffy with some line about how no mortal weapon could kill himSo our girl whips out a grenade launcher and hits him with the “yeah, I’m sure that was true back then”That said, Rick’s loadout in the mummy was kino as hell, and the whole movie deserves more recognition for showing people fighting the undead with WWI era weapons
Best chapterhttps://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Kino_no_Tabi:Volume2_Chapter1
>>62511975If I could only have one concealable sidearm it would probably have to be a metal frame pistol. Probably a Sig P229 or a Beretta 92. Maybe a 1911 for main character points.

You'd probably like it. It's got a chill apocalypse vibe where guns are present for protection but not really used against others in the story.

>>62539887Revolvers are simple and kino. They inspire images of adventurers, cowboys, WWI soldiers, the type of men who set off on grand adventures that changed the world. If you're going on a journey, but not necessarily into an active warzone where you might need 21 round magazines for your pistol, then a revolver just feels like a thematically appropriate choice
>>62541973I think revolvers are just easier to travel with because I don't have to worry about magazines. When you have the limited equipment storage of a motorrad, it's easier to have loose cartridges than magazines.
>>62513120>KLR650 based tractor enjoyer
>>62539887I haven't heard of it until now but I'll definitely check it out. Not much of a manga reader but if it has an anime I'll look into watching it
>>62545230There are 2 2-episode OVAs. The first one is gorgeous, having been made in the late 90s. The second one is an early digitally animated OVA and doesn't look nearly as good. Still nice stories though.
Long guns have to be takedowns to make sense in this scenario.
>>62549669In the books Kino has a custom takedown M14
>>62549758If you know how M14s work that's extremely silly.
Hard to decide but I think if I were to ever get a Class C RV I'd just travel with a 686, 1911, 10/22 and a Mossberg 500Those guns would work in most states and can be hidden easy
