What 3 things would you take with you to survive short or long term. These would be the 3 most important things in your mind that would help you best survive. I know the list could go on and on but lets keep it at 3 for now.

1. Silenced pellet gun

2. Magnesium Firestarter.

3. Knife

Do you prefer an answer for short term or long term?

Also I guess in order to be truthful and accurate with our answer we would need to know what type of terrain we would be trying to survive in.

It's all about the unknown. If a nuclear attack occured in Chorpus Christi,TX and the gulf stream was going to bring the fallout directly over tennessee we would have to head north and west. So I guess what I am looking for is 3 general purpose things for anywhere in N.America.

Its not just a camping forum according to the title. I posted this thread in reference to "Outdoor Survivial".


That would be one heavy arse gun with a 100 rd drum mag.
