OK: attached is a picture from my bedroom window. The terrain is open with little cover/concealment. Right behind our house is a creek that I would probably head to if I only had the allotted 5 min. heads-up. I'd grab my AR and a 5 or 6 Mags already loaded. (reasoning--reasonable balance with ammo weight/volume--best to NOT get in a firefight, but if can't avoid it, I want enough firepower to be able to hold my own or be able to break contact as needed) A few 1911 mags, primarily because the 1911 is already on my belt, so no time to change it out for my Sig.
Now, if the scenario is NOT solo:
I'd still grab the AR, and 1911, but would add the following:
My wife would get the AR-15-22 with 5 or 6 loaded .22 LR mags, and a 1911 with a couple of mags;
my son-in-law (who is currently in Active Reserve unit, and he and our daughter live on the ranch with us in our attached but separate mother-in-law place) would get one of my 1911's with mags and the .300 Weatherby w/ Leopold 4.5x14 scope--it would provide us some longer range fire if needed-he's also a better shot and in better shape than I am in to hump the rifle.
My daughter would get another AR with accompanying Mags and 1911 with a few mags; 10 yr old grandson would get my classic Remington Nylon 66 with a brick or two of .22LR and my 6 yr old granddaughter would get a a brick of .22LR and her grandmother's Ruger single-Six in 22LR.
IF we had time, we'd each grab a horse, bareback if need be, but my butt cringe's at that thought......
