It is a good article. An air gun of some sort is as important as a good .22 in any collection. Once upon a time, there was a survival air rifle that included a pellet swage tool. As long as you had lead or bismuth you had something that could shoot.
I don't recall who made it, but I believe it was .22 cal gas piston single shot. The swaging tool looked like a small bolt cutter. All you would do is nip off a bit of wheel weight and you had 2 or 3 pellets.
I remember the reason I didn't get one was the price tag.

I'd love to find one of those! It would be a perfect addition to a SHTF bag.
