The Ultimate Budget Survival Rifle Build
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 мар 2022
- This Henry lever action .22LR is equipped with pretty much everything a man would need. From fire starters and fishing kits to supplies to clean and maintain the rifle, it is ready for anything.
Can I ever imagine a scenario where all I have is this rife? No, that would be dumb! But it sure was fun to build. Tell me what you think in the comments. Thanks!!

.22LR or 12 gauge? Let me know in the comments! Don’t forget the subscribe and thumbs up. Thanks!
Savage 24 in 22 over 410! Haha problem solved. A 410 slug would work well on the occasional deer also
12 gauge definitely. Between the different types of shot you can take any game in north America. Would use my stevens bolt action 12g with the adjustable choke. A relic but reliable.
Neither. A .38/357 magnum lever action is quite arguably the very best possible option for a survival/SHTF rifle.
@@williampratt4791 If you're in grizzly bear or mountain lion country? Run into two legged predators (who are statistically the biggest threat in the woods, which most people don't realize)? A .22 bolt action is objectively a very very limiting choice.
@@911life5 That's a decent choice.
12 gauge single with a 22lr adapter plus a brass adapter for primers used for dog training lets me use it as a muzzleloader. The. 22 adapter can also be used for muzzleloading with blanks from my powerhammer as ignition. I also carry a home made hand loading kit for the shot shells with number 5 shot buckshot and. 69 cal. Musket balls. The barrel is full length as cutting it also reduces range and accuracy. The barrel has a rib on which I've installed turkey sights and marked the .22 adapter so I can orient it the same way to gain consistency and accuracy. I don't kneed the fashion statement so I don't waste my time weaving a sling I wrap cordage around the stock and use an adjustable sling that can be used over t shirt or parka. If conflict is expected I grab the pump.
Jason, people are flabbergasted that you are spray painting a Henry!!! Oh the agony...lol
It did hurt a little.
I have a .22 single shot for my “emergency” gun. I keep .22 LR, .22 shorts as well as .22 birdshot on hand. Space inside the stock for a Mylar blanket, lighter, water tablets, flashlight and a knife. I also added a stock pouch holding everything needed for the gun along with ammo. It’s a shotgun stock pouch, which means the elastic loops are sized to hold Rx pill canisters. I have 6 canisters, two each for fire starting and first aid, one for fishing and one for making a slingshot with steel ammo.
Added a similar sling made with 100’ of 550 tinder cord. Added a horizontal-carry belt pouch onto the sling with a multitool.
It’s pretty heavy, but it lives in the back window of my truck so if I need to hike it home any distance I can grab my backpack and my gun and go.
Love it!
.22 bolt action. One of those kids training rifles. They are short enough to fit inside a big backpack, and if you take them apart then they will fit into a medium ruck too. And you can carry a boat load of ammo.
I have both a 22 cal and 9mm insert in my 12ga shotgun buttstock. I use a wide rifle sling that I can attach pistol magazine pouches onto. And thats how I carry my ammo for my inserts. I put my pistol ammo in magazine that match the pistols I own.
My inserts are carried in bored holes in the wood stock. I use either a rubber buttstock pad or just a single screw on the buttplate( epoxied in) so I can swivel the buttplate aside to access the inserts.
Nice build. I would definitely pick a .22 over the 12 ga. Simply due to the reasons you mentioned. When it comes to a survival situation more ammo is always better than less.
Pro tip i picked up in another video on tactical rifleman from the Green beret who literally wrote the manual for SERE school: Chap stick is a good lubricant for firearms and is also a good fire starter. And it makes your lips feel so nice. +10 to morale.
lol
Good idea!
@@ONThree I knew it was a firestarter, but i'd never thought about the lubing firearms aspect, which makes sense. It's basically a light grease.
For the sling, get the wazoo cache belt and make a sling out of that. That way you can use the stock for more ammo and rifle related gear and survival gear inside the sling.
Genius!!
still can't get past spray painting a Henry! special level of Daunte's Inferno for you Sir!
I know, I know. I did a bad thing.
It doesn't bother me
After many decades of dragging
beautifully finished expensive
firearms through the briars and
in the worst kind of weather, I've
realized that my firearms are tools,
just like a hammer or a shovel.
To be used and not abused
The paracord sling is sweet, for any survival weapon it’s a must.
Thanks!
I like the twelve ga because I can hunt everything and be formidably defended against almost anything
I only say 22LR because I have a 1022 takedown that easily fits into my pack. But I love the 12ga so much that I keep one in my car all the time.
I used heat-shrink tubing to store ammo and oil should work.
Jason, yes please!!! It would be AMAZING if you could show how to weave the paracord sling!!! Awesome idea!!!
I’ll see what I can do.
@@ONThree that'll be awesome if you can find the time!!! Say, how is Mr Kay doing?... I haven't seen him in a long while, hope all is well with him...and if it's not too much to ask, and if you all are still socializin.... please let him know some of us miss him and his personality with yours.. some good wholesome humor in these stressful times gives the heart some joy and hope!.. not that I don't enjoy your positivity of course 😂🤣
@@honeybadgeractual Alan has never been much for socializing. He is good, just busy.
@@ONThree hahaha I can respect that, upsetting part is that he's got that wealth of knowledge he could share... However, if I were in his boots, looking at today's society with their humorous... I'd probably smile and nod, thinkin "bless your soul"... it's upsetting tho (coming from my side) seeing the couch critics going at people like you and him who are out there doing the things, and correcting ever step as if to claim there's only 1 right way 😡.. I'm glad to see some are comfortable with sharing their knowledge and experience like you!.. anyway thank you and let Alan know (if you think of it) that some of us miss his subtle humor and wealth of knowledge..
Jason, interesting video about building a gun. That was very creative in using the leafy stem when painting, to create a design.
Thanks!
Jason - I cringed when I saw those tiny black screws from the stock & butt plate. Please drill a few 1/4" holes on the side of your stock and superglue some round neodymium magnets flush. This will hold those removed screws. Having dropped screws in dirt and leaves while fieldstripping, I have spent many hours searching for one that fell into the leaves.
Ha! Good call.
That's a good pro tip.
22 all the way, as you already said, you can take animals all the way up to Deer
My Savage bolt action, .22lr. Because it is easy to maintain, fairly quiet, and I can hit golf balls at 75 yards with the open sights. The weight of both the rifle and ammo is much less than even my single shot .410.
Great choice!
Dude, you should start a business making those slings. I'd buy 3.
Possibly. Thanks for the idea!
I just bought a bolt action 22 since I love my pump action 22 but it's old as hell since it was my grandmother's varmint rifle that came with her matching 12 gauge
Awesome!
I'd take a single shot twelve gauge with barrel inserts for various ammo types including .22. More versatile that way and you don't have to choose one or the other!
those inserts are quite inaccurate because the insert spins opposite to the rifling when the round is fired.
I have had a 8” .22lr adaptor for over 10 years. I have had really good luck with it.
@@ONThree Does it lock into place in the breech to prevent counter rotation? The 8" might help a lot even if it doesn't because it probably has enough mass to counter the torque applied by a small .22LR projectile.
The barrel adapters I've used
have o-rings to hold it in place
and don't shift with any shots.
They're plenty accurate for what
they are and you can take game
at reasonable ranges.
No, they don't constitute a target
rifle, but in a shtf scenario you
won't be making long range shots
and you'd be avoiding firefights
at all costs.
@@Valorius It locks into place when you close the breach. I rotate it so it is at 6 o’clock and it shoots very consistently. Probably average 2 inch groups at 25 yards with just an oversized bead sight.
Shot placement is everything, .22 unless you have bipedal threats then 5.56
have you looked at the shotgun adapters i have 3 for my 12 ga. .38, 9 mm and 22 all of them work fantastic
Yes, I have a few. The 8” .22 is pretty effective.
Curses to whoever decided to make the 22 WMR incompatible with 22LR. Because a 22 WMR lever gun that also took 22 LR would be one hell of a great thing to have.
Couldn’t agree more!
Please do a video on making that awesome sling!
I just might do that!
After seeing this video awhile back ,I bought a Henry 001 upgraded the sights & lever, with the intent on doing this, I don't have the balls to carve up my gun..... I love my nef12 & my Henry. I'd personally take the 12 for short term ,long term the Henry. Only due to ammo weight. Screw it MY plans are carry both.
Both is a good choice!!
Great video, I really appreciate the content you are putting out Jason. If i can though, I'd actually argue that manual actions may be worse in a survival situation.
The force exerted on the bolt of a semi-autimatic firearm makes it much more likely to run (or to push through the carbon/dirt) that will accumulate over time.
You could also argue that the ease of disasembling/maintaining your firearm is more important thab whether it is semi-auto or manually operated. A bolt action is very easy to maintain in the field, as is a 10/22 if you stick an alleb wrench in your pack. A lever action, however, may be more complicated to maintain given the number of small components you need to remove to fully disassemble the firearm.
Valid points!
Mine options are 12 and 22 next would be 9mm and 3030 now pistol I have 357 emergency pistol .and a 22 in a shoulder rig oh side note we were taught single shot or bolt 22 supress the urge to over fire stress one shot option
Great update Jason! I love your content, one of the best instructors on YT! Can’t wait to see the wazzo gear/ 22 rifle 48 hrs survival challenge 😀😜
It’s on the playlist. Thanks!
Single shot 12 gauge. With the right tools it can be multi functional
Agreeeeeeed!!!!
22 mag for us. It’s light, can carry massive amounts of rounds even just in your pocket loose and it will quietly put food on the table. Well at least more quiet than a 12 gauge. Lol
Love the .22 mag. The first rifle I ever bought was a .22mag.
I think that's a really solid choice.
Good video and tips , thanks for sharing ,God bless !
I think everyone should check out David Canterbury’s videos on reloading 20 gauge with pyrodex and wax. Gives the 12 new life
I have done that. Works pretty good loaded with BBs.
Good info
that oil tube was an impressive idea, i have got to attest!! i hate that you painted the walnut stock, not gunna lie, i'da only scraped the finish off and oiled it all sexylike. that lever action 22 is the beesknees. great work!! id mill out the whole stock and keep a tin and such in it, but great work! hand mill at that, with a drill and chisels.
“All sexylike”! Love it!
Definitely the deuce deuce!!! It’s the best all around critter getter and I have to agree with you Jason, give me the manual transmission any day over automatic! 1 box of 50 .22lr is about the size and weight of 2-3 shot shells. Great video, thanks for your time.
That's a tough question 12 guage or 22lr. Maybe a 20 guage. Like you I don't trust semi-autos unless it's a Glock. I have a Henry and a Rossi 22lr lever action. I'm a lever action guy I have a Winchester 94 in 30/30. However there's a new gun coming out, a Winchester Ranger 22lr lever action with an MSRP of $419, it's a takedown like the original 9422.
It already is single breakdown 12 with stack & pack caliber kit in stock. 😁
Oh hey forgot put a pencil in there somewhere its tinder and the graphite will work better as dry lube so winter it won't gum up
Interesting!! Thanks!
@@ONThree oh it has to be a no2 lead
Please do, a video on making the paracord sling. Thanks.
I might do that soon.
@@ONThree cool
Honestly fighting rifle and survival is differnt and many people don’t get that
.22lr is a great option for survival! One of the biggest reasons for me is that it's quiet enough to not need hearing protection. Too many people think AK or AR for shtf but that's assuming you'll always have your hearing protection. And then you'll be deaf to any threats/prey around you if you have earmuffs on
Good point!
@@ONThree 12ga will make you deaf after like 10 shots without hearing protection lol been there done that 😂
I personally would never go under a .22 magnum.
Respectfully disagree on a couple
of things
Just me- I want any cordage to
be ready for immediate use, and
not have to unravel a bracelet or
a sling or a belt, etc.
I realized that in the scouts many
years back. After you unravel your
belt, how do you hold your pants up?
I never sacrifice a piece of serviceable gear.
Also, I've already been the carrying
extra gear on the rifle route with
ammo slings, stock packs, survivor
stocks, etc. All that fouls up the
balance of the firearm ( to me)
and isn't as rapid to access as a
purpose designed and built carrier
or pouch etc.
Thanks for the video
I can’t really imagine only having this rifle in a survival situation. If that is the case, I’ve messed up pretty bad. But it sure was fun to build.
22LR all day.
Ok, a coule things. Why not just use a wood stock New England Arms single shot .22. Hollow out the stock for goodies and pack .22 bird shot along with the LR rounds. If you still want the 12 gauge, pack the interchangeable 12 gauge barrell or 20 ga or 410 or .223, etc. They are all interchangeable and gives you the versatility of multiple round styles. OR, just get a .22/12 gauge over and under with a wood stock and do the same thing. I just love those Henry lever actions too much to allow myself to purposely destroy one if I have any alternative.
All good options! I actually like the Henry better this way.
@@ONThree I gotta ask. I have a .22 mag golden boy. Could you bring yourself to do these modification on that?
@@paulschwartz2464 That one is way to pretty for me.
22 bulk
I am surprised that the fish hooks or the blade don't impact the compass.
Me too! I placed it just passed the cavities in the stock. No issues.
Any thoughts on the Rossi Rio bravo that already has a polymer stock?
I don’t have any experience with that one.
@@ONThree thanks for the reply
A very hard choice, I think I would have to go for the shotgun just for versatility, illegal to buy slugs here so Deer are of the menu with the shotgun . I wonder what my local FAO (fire arms officer) would say if I hacked the barrel of my shotgun!! We have some very odd laws in the UK and owning fire arms is a bit tricky to say the least. It has taken a huge amount of effort to own my 308 scout, 17hmr and shotgun. FREEDOM!!
Illegal to buy slugs!!!! Outrageous!!!
Look into " cut shells' or wax filled slug... strictly for survival of course.
I am one of those arborial type creatures, please don't shoot me out of the tree.
Hahahahaha! No promises.
Savage model 24 22lr over a 20 gauge
Have you considered adapters for your H&R so you can shoot other calibers?
I love my 8” .22 adapter. Had it over 10 years now. Pretty effective.
There is a lot to be said as a .38/.357 magnum lever gun as the ultimate SHTF and survival gun. A LOT.
12 gauge I would more uses for animals
is this a re-upload? i am having some serious deja vu with this video for some reason.
Same bro and I don’t remember seeing it on this channel
This video was posted to Survival Dispatch a few months back. I put a lot of time into the videos so I try and get the most out of each one. Thanks for watching again!
@@ONThree ah okay that is where i seen it. Man, i was a bit confused there for a bit lol. Good video none the less.
.22, more ammo!!
What if you could have both in one rifle over under rifle
Yep. Good call.
Sweeeeet
.22
Because you can easily carry hundreds of rounds of ammo, and because it's quiet.
12ga for human varmints.
22 lr
Need a slot for bacon.
Ah yes! The bacon compartment.
Differentiate “Survival”:
-Game Hunting Rifle…this video
12 ga: #4, #7, Slug
-Self Defense Rifle 12ga 00BK
-Assault Rifle 5.56
12 ga is flexible and reloadable
Round size/weight …..how many do you practically need to carry?
Too much time with Dustin…..😉
12 gauge
I pick .22 . I'm better with my 22 than I am with my 12 guage.
Good decision!
I hate reruns from SD bro...
Come on man! I work really hard on these videos and try and get the most out of them. I appreciate the view and comment anyway.
