And if you are assuming a shootout in the fields, any retard can kill at 500 meters unassisted. With a single day's coaching. By the time you know to draw, you should already be dead.
Firearms are a waste of time post-collapse. A waste of money pre. If you have land, plan out how you'll restrict entry and place sentries. If a fixed bug out location work out multiple campsites, access paths, sight lines and vantage points when returning.
Aaaannd, I just fell down the gillie net rabbit hole. Great.
