My list

1. Remington 12ga pump
2. AK-47
3. Colt M1911

Tough question. I am going to assume you are limiting choices to weapons which are legal for civilians to own. In that case,

1) H&K MR556A1 (personal and family defense)
2) Benelli M4 (home defense)
3) Wilson Combat Tactical Elite (gotta have a 1911)
4) H&K MK 23
5) Marlin 336C (it's not sexy, but I need a nuts and bolts hunting rifle and there is nothing 30-30 can't take in my part of the country)

Having only five guns is not fair. :biggrinjester:

I like to think that I already own them.
If I had to sell everything and keep five it would be:

Colt Detective Special DS-II
Colt Python .357 Mag
High Standard Supermatic Trophy .22LR
Browning Lightning O/U 12 Gauge
Remington 700 in .308Win

1) Marlin 39A
2) Glock 19
3) BCM Midlength AR-15
4) Winchester M70 .30-06
5) Remington 870

Those should do just about anything needs to be done in North America.

Whenever I've played this game before I've been able to get it down to 4. I'm of the opinion that you can really do anything you would need to with 4 guns:
1) handgun in a good defensive caliber
2) centerfire rifle capable of taking deer-sized game
3) a .22 (handgun or rifle, your choice)
4) 12 or 20 gauge shotgun

Fortunately, "need" isn't a prerequisite for buying a gun.

You mean just to use for today right? Because ONLY 5 guns for anything beyond today just ain't nearly enough :lol:

OK OK I'll play along

1. LaRue Tactical OBR 7.62mm (.308) with Nightforce 10X main scope and a pair of Aimpoint Micros on 1 o'clock mounts on each side of quad rail. With a box of 20-round mags and 10,000 rounds of 7.62 NATO and at least 500 rounds of Hornady TAP 7.62mm

2. authentic GI issue Colt 1911 from either WWI or WWII era in used and worn but still functional shape and 10,00 rounds of 230-grain .45 ACP ball ammo

3. AA-12 full-auto 12-gauge shotgun with multiple 20-round drum mags and 10,000 12-gauge 00 buck shells - plus a few of those finned grenade rounds

4. Glock 18 with a box full of 33-round mags and a few 17-round mags and 10,000 rounds of 9mm NATO and another 500 rounds of Speer Gold Dot +P 124-grain

5. customized Ruger 10/22 in .22 Magnum with lightweight graphite bull barrel, Boyd-type target stock, 2.5-10mm scope with bullet drop compensator dialed in for .22 Magnum, Harris bipod, a box of 10-round Ruger factory magazines, 50,000 rounds of .22 Magnum match-grade ammo and a field full o varmints

1) Springfield XDM .40S&W - I love the .40 caliber and the Springfield XDM is on my number one to buy list. 16+1 rounds is pretty awesome.

2) Alexander AWS Entry Rifle in .50 Beowulf. - I would of course have multiple options to adjust this firearm for.

3) Ruger 10/22 with an 18.5 in barrel. This should be on everybody's list.

4) Kel-Tec 12 gauge. This isn't actually out yet, but I will be buying one for the bedside when it gets released.

5) Ruger Blackhawk .45LC(I actually own this one and it is my favorite handgun)
