Either that or an RPK. It's one of the few machine guns that I know of that can be (relatively) easy to carry around.
Single-shot of any kind is to prefer in this context (if one were to use firearms). Auto would result in more misses and waste of ammo. Hence pistols or semi-capable SMGs are to prefer in front of any assault rifle or machine gun if the choice is given. Lighter, roughly the same ammo capacity, smaller and still jsut as deadly.

Though, RPKs and its like would probably be preferred if you have a stationary defence and ammo to spare.

I stand corrected on the shotguns.
