Zombie Apocalypse -- Chose Your Weapon!

But wouldn't zombie dinosaurs eat other dinosaurs? I mean zombie humans often leave animals alone

Usually the best idea is if you got a couple friends that know how to handle zombies with multiple vehicles. Is split up with teams set on gathering as much fire power/ammo and the such as possible. Aswell as the other teams responsible for things such as food/water basically any supplies. And have the spot to meet back at be a near by place usually 3-5 stories in height, decent coverage of land, designed with something like fences that surround the whole area. Then just take in any survival morons and force em into being another guard and if they fail or shown theyve been bit just shoot their ***. Then its just a matter of outlasting the waves of the zombies, untill its time to run for it before the government chooses to nuke the place.

And if you're just after the perfect gun, go for those guns from the Anime/Manga Gantz. lol... Never runs out of ammo and one shot would do more than enough to explode or flatten em to nothingness depending which you're using. XD

I'll keep him around :3

While we're at it, nab the suits.

Nab the girl... Need to repopulate the earth.

Long range only
most likely take out a zombie platoon in one burst or you.



close range where silence isnt an issue.

Close range no silence needed. Aim for the head.
Desert eagle loaded with hollow point tips.

this for air support lol.

Could you personally handle the recoil on that?

Why does everyone always go for just the biggest gun possible <_< there's a point of diminishing return, it's why GI weapons for the army aren't the biggest baddest guns around..

the eagle is not a weapon for those with a weak grip or wrist you have to brace for it. Great close quarters pistol if you can handle it. But if a zombie is coming at you like your dinner chances are youll manage.

Problem with all the M16/AR15 series is that they were never intended to be used to "kill" the weapon is designed and classed as a suppressant weapon. The caliber is either the .556 or remington 226 rounds, Just slightly larger than a .22lr with a lot more punch. The actual round is meant to enter the body than bounce throughout the body from bone to bone. causing eternal rips and tears of the organs. You would probably have to empty third to half a magazine to take down a single zombie.

I would assume to reliably take out a single zombie you would want at the very least 9mm and even this might not be enough. It takes an average of 3 9mm rounds 2 to the chest one in the head to kill a human dead on the spot.

Personally I'd go for expansive but consolidated rounds of Winchester .45cal

Main weapon: H&K MP5 .45 cal Very rare in the USA($$$20k+)
Side Arm: Glock-22 .45 cal police issue for larger mags

Combo'd with some sort of sword preferably a katana and a large hunting knife and a wooden baseball bat.

But a more realistic could be

Main weapon: Standard H&K MP5 9mm
Side Arm: Any 9mm pistol

Start saving for ammo now 5-10$$ a box of 50 rounds for either 9mm or .45cal. One box a month until 2012 will take u places.

Hehe the suits and guns both would pwn yeah. And the Gantz guns arent the biggest really even one not much bigger than a handgun would explode any zombie in a single shot, and comes with unlimited ammo. (They're just not very realistic) XD

Just having some fun here lol. The BFG9000 is the one gun that probably has no diminishing returns it was called the room clearer for a reason. I also just like the big guns. Realistically id go with lighter firearms/bladed weapons like previous posters.

Wood because of the total mass. If i wanted to hit a baseball out of the field I'd probably go with a hollow aluminum bat. If I wanted to crush the top of a skull down to the lower jaw I'd go for the wooden bat any day.

chainsaws and zombies :D
and welcome home.
did u bring me cake :D?

precision injection molded out of heavy-grade polypropylene

This is the weapon for every situation. Jesus is the salvation all around.

man i wish my friend nadia was over.
i swear she pretty much has her zombie apoc.
planned.
>:

No real need for higher caliber rounds against zombies... anything other than a head shot is a waste anyways unless you are using 50 cal lol. And even then...

I know we're just having fun but seriously it pains to me to see everyone (not just on the internet) always saying they'd go for the biggest gun possible >_> This isn't the first time I've seen/heard someone say they'd want a DE..

If I were to pick some firearms as my constant companion, it would be


and


One added advantage is both can use the same ammunition. Although don't expect me to be unloading with the SMG, it would still be used in a controlled precision manner, just the larger ammo size (it would have to have the drum on it, plus at least 2 magazines back up) would keep me from being gnawed on during those pesky reloads. The 1911 would just be there if for some god awful reason the SMG failed on me, or I found myself laying on my back with a zombie in my face. I choose the Thompson, because it has the stopping power for both zombies and those damned wastelanders thinking they're going to rob me blind, plus it's small and compact, a plus for close quarters.
