[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Light prep? Depends on whether you're hunkering down or bugging out, but:

-- Have at least 72 hours of freeze-dried food on hand. Pay attention to expiration dates and store it where rodents can't get to it (ideally in a plastic bin).
-- Have a supply of different sorts of batteries you might need. Pay attention to their expiration dates.
-- Have a 72-hour supply of potable water. Consider getting something that can treat stream water as well.
-- Source of fire, i.e. matches, lighter or fero rods.
-- Iodine. 
-- First aid kit.
-- Firearm (ideally one shotgun and one pistol, with enough ammunition to last a week or so).
-- Camping stove and fuel. Camping utensils.
-- Jackery or similar lithium battery.
-- Radio, either battery powered or something you can crank.
-- Tent and sleeping bags in a bugout bag.
-- Also in the bag: Camping towel that wrings out easily, quick-dry underwear and socks, a lightweight parka or rain coat, 
-- At least one utilitarian knife. [/quote]

I get the shotgun, but what's the thinking behind the pistol? If society collapses, I think I'd rather have a rifle. I'm not sure the ability to conceal a weapon has much value during an apocalypse. [/quote]
