My personal favorite of the exotic finishes is called METACOL ( METAl COLor), which is offered in a wide variety of colors by Arizona Response Systems The Robar Company uses a nickel/Teflon composite. These include Parkerizing (the military standard gray or black phosphate finish commonly seen on M16 and AR-15 rifles), and various other factory finishes with trade names such as “Coltalloy” or “Armour Alloy.” In addition to gun factory finishes, a wide range of exotic materials such as Teflon and Zylan are now frequently used as “after-market” gun finishes. For guns that only made with a blued finish, there are several alternative finishes available. Unfortunately, however, not all guns are available in stainless steel. Stainless steel is by far the best choice for most situations. And needless to say, who knows which replacement parts will be available when things get Schumeresque? Since they are carried quite frequently and in all sorts of weather, farm/ranch/survival guns need to have durable finishes. When the nearest gunsmith is a two hour drive away, you have to depend on your own resources.

When an infrequent repair must be made, a small stock of spare parts that do not require special gunsmithing to install must suffice. Good designs not prone to mechanical failures are a plus. The second major consideration for survival guns is that they be robust and reliable enough to put up with constant carry and regular use. Like a carpenter’s box of tools, each type of gun has its special place and purpose. Further, it is not realistic to believe that you can get by with just one gun, or even just one rifle, one pistol, and one shotgun. While there is no single gun that can handle any task, it is important to select guns with at least some degree of versatility. A single gun might be pressed into service for shooting crows or starlings at 10 yards, rabbits or coyotes at 100 yards, or rattlesnakes at five feet. First, and foremost, they must be versatile. There are several requirements that must be considered in selecting guns for use on a farm, ranch, or survival retreat. In my survivalist novel “Patriots”, I included lots of descriptions of firearms used in various situations in order to illustrate that there is no single “perfect survival gun.” Different situations are best handled by using different firearms.
