While I don’t expect or hope to ever need it, as an American, I would like to be prepared to resist as much as necessary if needed. It’s looking like it might be needed at some point here.
I’m looking to get a rifle or two for that specific purpose just in case. Can anyone recommend specific brands/models and/or features I should be looking for? I’m disabled in a way that limits my ability to hold anything heavy, so lighter weight is good. I have a revolver, but that’s probably not the best for standing up against a repressive regime.
I plan to train with whatever I get, of course. Thanks in advance.
Edit: There way too much information here for me to reply to it all individually, but I would like to say thank you to everyone for your very helpful responses.
Literally the reason pistol braces exist.
99.9% use it as a stock to get around SBR laws, so you might have to research which one does the actual job it’s supposed to best. But they were invented so you could literally strap an AR to your arm.
But rather than a rifle I’d say something like the Extar EP9:

9mm will be lighter weight and less recoil, and it’s crazy lightweight with a short barrel keeping the weight towards your chest where its easiest.
Takes Glock mags, so you can run 15rounders to be as light as possible, grab a 33 round ruler clip to have more than a standard AR, or go all out and get a fucking drum.
15 in the gun and ruler clips for reloads would be a good plan.
Thank you for taking the time. I wasn’t familiar with pistol braces. I’ve got some research to do.
