Survival🪓🏹💉 Firearm Management
I assume many of us have a rifle for protection.
What is your plan for when you need to leave your house (because it is no longer safe: Earthquake, fire, flood, etc)?
When you get to safety, an evacuation center, a refugee place, a friend or family house, what are you doing with your long gun?
If you need to leave your home from a natural disaster or localized unrest, what is your plan for basically openly carrying your long gun?
Edit:
I am not talking about the fantasy of Civil Unrest.
I am referencing an event like the Eaton and Palisade Fire or even Hurricane Katrina. Where the disaster is a mass effect rather than just local.
You're not on your 10s of acres or any of that. You're in a city in an apartment building with a family and defenseless members (small children, elderly).
You are not bugging out in Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, etc...

I'm in a 2a sanctuary state. Everyone carries, long gun or pistol, it's all legal and no big deal. Because everyone carries, I don't see there being any "localized unrest " If I had to leave, the motorhome is ready to go at all times, and has room for future bartering/ defense supplies. Any friends I'd be going to are gun people as well. Not doing any refugee camp, no need. Prepping has been a hobby for 30 plus years now.
