But if you are ever in said firefight, extricate yourself. Avoid it all together, which is quite easy at over 200 meters.

22 mag pistol with a detachable rifle stock is all you need, along with a lens. or cut down a 22 mag rifle that takes a clip. lightweight ammo that you can carry 500 or better rounds, and has high enough velocity that can take out a deer at 300 yards, plus you can shoot 22 long rifle through it with an insert.
you don't want to run out of ammo in an emergency, and most other weapons ammo are just too bulky and weigh too much to pack while on the move. Seriously
the only other comparable fire arm is the Fn p-90 5.7x28, but most of us aren't going to want to spend that kind of money and the ammo cant be found everywhere

I smith all my own parts, and the insert is just a head spaced cut off a 22 barrel liner. any retard can make one
and by the way a 13 inch barrel works flawlessly

I get the impression you're a shoot first and ask questions later kinda guy. If you go back to the first page and scroll down about midway you will see that the OP commented specifically on the M6 and his being unable to put his hands on one. As far as you thinking that the M6 is a gimmick.....I think anyone that has held and or used one would beg to differ. It is a very well made and solidly constructed gun....but made for a specific purpose.... "Survival" therefore it is a compromise. It is compact therefore the barrel is not as long as a typical rifle therefore the accuracy is not what it would otherwise be.....but with the 22 hornet round ( which is substantially more powerful then even a 22 magnum) it is still accurate and lethal up to probably 150-200yds. Now think about that that's the length of 2 football fields that's a long ways. The vast majority of shots would be considerably shorter then that. I guarantee I could shoot a moose in the head ( with a hollow point ) from under 100yds and drop it...what more do I want? As far as the .410 goes they are what they are something for hunting small game in close quarters.
Maybe you think it is a gimmick because you can store ammo in the stock ...I think it's good planning or because it can be broken in half quickly and easily carried in a backpack.... I think it's sensible. Or maybe because it can't hold up in a "firefight". Well where I live I'm not personally worried about that scenario unless we're invaded by a foreign army...even then I think they will leave the secluded areas for last if not entirely alone. Just my 2 cents

as much as an AR with an 8" barrel at 300 yards
