Re: Single Shot or Semi Auto for survival?

Thanks again everyone. I guess a semi auto pistol and pump action it
is. My revised list-

Pump Action 12 guage
Semi auto pistol (1911 or glock)
Bolt action 30-06
..22 semi auto

So just to clarify, the main drawback of a semi auto is it doesn't fire
handloads as reliably?
