Best RV/Camping rifle/shotgun?

 

[barbarossa]

If your looking for a small stow away gun the TPS m6 in 22/410 or 357mag /410 can be a good choice depending on what you are looking to use it for

 

[Suther]

Really depends on what you want to do with it.

But my go-to for such situations is my Mossberg 500 with a 18.5" barrel, loaded with 5 rounds of TruBall Deep Penetrator slugs.

 

[Buck1950]

I prefer my Hatsan SS Marine Guard 14" pump.

 

[dakota123]

Maybe just a pointy stick in light of Canadas bleak firearms environment.

 

[Smis Five Creedmoor]

Benelli Super Nova Tactical 14" barrel version.
It's short, and it works really good.

Or this

 

[Deathrawt]

Those tps survival guns are nice, I like the 22,hornet variant
For a general camp/atv gun a short barreled 12 gauge would be my pick with a variety of different ammo for different situations

 

[platnumbob]

I use an Remington 870 supermag that has a 12.5" barrel swap and ghost rings. I find it pretty handy. It totally depends on what you are intending on using it for though.

 

[NAA]

I'd just go with the ole venerable 870.

[Lodi]

Thompson Submachine Gun, with a drum mag or two. Everyone looks good when holding one and onlookers will definitely be paying attention when you speak.

 

[brownbear53]

I prefer my 870 14” barrel and a 10/22.
But in all honesty any shotgun with a 12-14” barrel is a good start as long as you have an assortment of ammo

 

[barbarossa]

The big thing is what are your uses for it and if it is legal in your area to do so

 

[reddog]

Model 12 slamfire 18.5" barrel have been packing it for 35 years.It dusted to critically stupid coyotes in camp one time...

 

[Max Owner]

I camp in bear country.

So Mosberg 590 with factory 14” barrel. Marlin 1895 SBL in 45/70. Just bought a Smith & Wesson in 44 mag. For less umph when there are people around.

 

[jetfixer]

Any reliable 12ga shotgun or .44 Mag, 45/70 lever action. Highly recommend having a light on them (and a headlamp for you) for nightime encounters. The applicable ammunition is also crucial. Be aware of firearms regulations in Federal and Provincial Parks.

 

[MiG25]

Given that an RV can be a Motor Vehicle and Wobbly Pops may be involved in Camping, I'd say either a break action or something with a detachable mag.

 

[FLHTCUI]

I'd just go with the ole venerable 870.

NAA.

Exactly, No need to overthink it.
You have Pete, Re-Peat and Ditto.
If those three can not TCB then it is time to reload or advance in another direction for further evaluation of the situation.
Tight Groups,

I use Maverick 88 as a bush gun. Its cheap, works great and has 18.5/28 combos. 28 inch barrel takes chokes so it can be used for hunting too. 2 in one pacage at a decent price. So people say oh, its a chepo Mossberg but I had mine for years and never had any issues with it.

 

[geologist]

I prefer rifles for their superior loading and extraction compared to a pump 12 gauge.

Plus it can shoot 2.5" .410 shells in a pinch.
