I'd kill or die for a WWII or pre-WWII Colt .45. One I would especially love would be a Singer (yes, the sewing machine company) made for the war. There's a rare one that even Forgotten Weapons hasn't seen, forget the model.

SAKO TRG 22/42 A1 a good home defense tool for light sleepers.
Why use a gun chambered in 6.5cm, 308win, 300wm, or 338lapua for home defense, unless you mean defense of your large estate and need long range? Shotguns are long and unwieldy. I'd go for hand guns with rounds that distort when they hit something so there is less chance of penetration and continuing on. Most likely 22lr or 9mm. 22 has less stopping power, but usually more capacity.

Wenonah Itasca canoe in Kevlar, a canoe that you can transport your life and another person and their life at a blazing clip and the boat barely weighs over 50 pounds for bring 19.5 feet.
I have the hull in a heavier layup so I am happy but I dream of having the kevlar ultralight version.
Depends on the hobby, but this list is for me, idk if there is a consensus
