A rifle and/or shotgun would be a good idea. Some small game traps. At least get a decent pellet gun.
Also a water purification filter and some chlorine tabs.

Once the food runs out (and there is no government infrastructure in place to provide any more) you’ll have to head for the hills and hunt for your own. Plenty of rabbits and other small game to get for food. Print out instructions on how to properly gut & clean them for consumption.

This piece tells much about the situation in Detroit. Check out the aerial photo comparison of 1949 to 2003. It’s shocking. But at the same time, I think Detroit has finally hit bottom and can turn around. The article explores the tremendous opportunity they have now to model the city in a smart and balanced agricultural/urban mix. People are already doing it: buying up the land adjacent to those abandoned houses and farming on it. The advantage: You’ve got irrigation and drainage already in place. And they’re focusing on the local/organic benefits.

Money quote:
“Detroit may be best positioned to become the world’s first one hundred percent food self-sufficient city.”
