Here are a few good, and inexpensive choices for general hunting, wilderness survival and general purpose outdoor use: Savage Model 110: I have owned two of these rifles and the first thing I must say is that they are accurate right out of the box! They are easy to shoot and come in many different calibers including 30-06 and 308 Winchester. Both of these calibers are very common and are effective against all north american game. The Mossberg 500 Shotgun in 12 or 20 Ga. M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle. The BAR was designed to be carried by advancing infantrymen, slung over the shoulder or fired from the hip, a concept called "walking fire"—thought to be necessary for the individual soldier during trench warfare.[1] However in practice, it was most often used as a light machine gun and fired from a bipod (introduced in later models).[2] A variant of the original M1918 BAR, the Colt Monitor Machine Rifle, remains the lightest production automatic gun to fire the .30-06 Springfield cartridge, though the limited capacity of its standard 20-round magazine tended to hamper its utility in that role.[2] Although the weapon did see some action in World War I, the BAR did not become standard issue in the U.S.

That is why I generally recommend military rifles for survival when you have a choice. If you set aside specific collector's models, decent surplus and rebuilt military rifles are cheaper than ever compared to what they were in 1985 dollars during the heyday of the survivalist movement.

As long as you stay with common models, you can equip pretty well on a reasonable budget. Older surplus military bolt action rifles are useful as extras or low budget stash guns as they are reasonably accurate, tough and cheap enough to be almost expendable. Lever guns are halfway decent for most purposes. Flashlights and dedicated weapon mount lights can help with night shooting. Barrett. Steyr AUG. The AUG is an Austrian bullpup 5.56mm assault rifle, designed in the 1960s by Steyr Mannlicher GmbH & Co KG (formerly Steyr-Daimler-Puch).

The AUG (Armee-Universal-Gewehr—"universal army rifle") was adopted by the Austrian Army as the StG 77 (Sturmgewehr 77) in 1978,[3] where it replaced the 7.62mm StG 58 automatic rifle (a licence-built FN FAL).[4] In production since 1978, it is the standard small arm of the Austrian Bundesheer and various national police units.
