- a basic semi-auto 22 rifle for plinking
- a common pump 12ga shotgun (maybe one that also comes with a conversion to pistol grip for home defense in tight hallways)
- a hammerless revolver (.38 or 9mm) with a laser sight on a small grip for easy carry when necessary
- a basic AR-15
- a deer rifle like a 30.06 with a good scope
- a decent pump BB rifle for use in residential neighborhoods on small animals, when necessary
