My apologies my Brother. I read your scenario, and tried to fit it to my current life, as opposed to just sticking to the original premise. My bad. I do like the idea of a separate thread to discuss the possibilities I discussed earlier...
That said, and I had to bug out fast, the only weapons I would choose from my safe are my 22/ 22magnum pistol, and my 22 Remington Matchmaster rifle.
My reasoning is as follows... With those simple weapons you can defend yourself, kill anything you want to eat, and secure anything else you might need. They are reliable, not high maintenance, you can carry more than enough ammunition, as well as very quiet ammunition to remain undetected in your movement. They are easy to carry, and the Matchmaster could be broken down to fit inside the longer go bags. Also, as far as accuracy goes, I have never fired a 22 rifle like the Matchmaster I have. The scope is old, and has brass rings. It is post and cross hair, and the top of the post has a tiny notch. In that notch is where the bullet goes. All the time, every time. It also loves 22 shorts, although I have to hand feed those. The pistol I have is an old 22 revolver with an extra 22 magnum cylinder.
I would also grab the little black bag at the bottom of my safe. No need to go there in public.
