To be confident and competent enough with a rifle to be able to hit anything I can see in a Jovian Thunderbolt kind of way.
To be able to defend myself with a handgun.
To perhaps harvest some tasty venison with either a rifle or a shotgun, any skin or antler is just a nice bonus, here.
And, if necessary: To Defend the Ramparts of Democracy from a Level 4 Zombie Outbreak or against the Jacobin, Rampaging, Godless, Red-Commie Hordes (or their modern equivalent.)
"You never select a shotgun as your primary anti-zombie firearm. It's great for onesy twosey, but zombies travel in hordes. The reload time is onerous, and the ammo, while effective, is heavy and bulky and short ranged."
Big Mistake for Her
If Ginsberg had let Scalia put the words "strict scrutiny" in Heller and Hillary said "Gun control is just not going to be a priority for my administration," Hillary would have been elected President.

I'd like to see how a Brewster F2A fits inside the P-47.
And TOUGH bones too... Anything that can knock down a brick chimney and keep flying is pretty tough...
The P-47D-25 was the fastest piston engine plane of WW2 despite its size.
And never forget that one of the highest scoring aces flew one.
Gabby Gabreski !!!!!! Believe he score well in the F-86 over Korea too.
Small wonder that the Spit pilots said that taking evasive action in a P-47 consisted of running about the fuselage!

Look at that poster i had a song go through my head.
"Jug, Jug, Jug, Jug da Jug, Jug da jug!" to the Imperial March from Star Wars.
Looks like you could mount Spitfires to the hardpoints and deploy them like AIM-7s. . .
