I've been trying to put my own Zombie Weapons Tier onto paper for a long time, sheerly because Max Brooks missed a LOT in his book as far as firearms go......edited.....but I will have you know that you are using images from imfdb that MPM2008 made, and unless you have his permission, he's gonna be pissed when he finds out.

Wow. Great stuff. Totally using this info. Thanks guys. Anyone else? No votes of confidence for 9mm glocks or Sig Sauers?
Totally agree with handguns being a poor primary weapon. We make note of that in other places, but some of the editors really seem to want to get to the bottom of the "best zombie killing handgun" discussion. ::shrugs::. |

In the end, a 9mm is a 9mm is a 9mm. What makes the gun better or best is what is available for it that isn't for others. If you do plan on using my information, I'd appreciate it if you cited me as well as show me where you post it.

Hey, if you ever do get around to it, we'd love to have it on zombie.wikia.com. We get decent traffic, especially on all searches for anything Max Brooks related. I'm known as Philodox on that wiki, so hit me up if you need anything there. Cheers.

My only problem with finishing it is that I need decent pictures and none of my friends are willing to draw for me a uniform set of images. I've scoured the internet for good ones but the only set I can find that I like are MPMs, which are off limits. Again, please cite me and show me where it ends up too, I can't strees that enough. My AIM address is ynh1911a1 too if you have any other questions.

I've gotta say, I don't really like the gun suggestions from Brook's Zombie survival guide. I read that guide and he really doesn't like the M16 and saids it jams a lot. Obviously the writer knows nothing about firearms in general. I'd take these recommendations with a grain of sand.

My thoughts exactly. I can't argue much with tactics as I am not a master tactical planner, but I know a thing or two about firearms, which is a thing or two more than his book illustrates.

An AR-15 rifle or carbine would be an ideal weapon due to it being accurate with light recoil, lots of readily-available aftermarket parts to enhance performance and accuracy, and readily-available ammunition. Jamming likely wouldn't be much of a problem unless you're laying out full suppression fire, which anyone hoping to survive Z-Day wouldn't do if he/she had any common sense. This would be my ideal configuration. ![]() Long range and CQB in one handy machine.

the zombie survival guide is a total joke. m1 carbine and machete? Come on. And theres too many ideas on type of zombie. Classic zombies that are slow dead and need headshots. Then theres 28 days/weeks that actually make sense since tehre an infected human and all you need to do is shoot them.
