Zombie Survival - Choice of Firearm

[S&Wshooter]

My Stag Arms AR

The 686

my 4506 as backup

one of my many .22's for when ammo gets a little low for the centerfires.


I'd probably end up using a 12 guage and a .22 though, seing as that's just about all we have ammo for

Remember that Buntline special with the detachable stock that Col. Mortimer has in "For a Few Dollars More?" Do they make grips like that today? If they do, that's what I'd want. A GP-100 with a six inch barrel, and a detachable stock. Stock on to reach out and touch someone, stock off for close-in action.

(They'd be legal, right? The revolver is still legally a handgun.)

A carbine and a pistol, plus a compact shotgun in your back. And you can carry more ammo, remember Vietnam and the Alice pack, those poor GIs were carrying a lot of weight in their backs.

I just remembered- the only 12 ga ammo we have is 3 1/2 inch Magnum. I guess we'd just have to have perpetually bruised shoulders

Out of the shotguns we have, 3 1/2 inch Magnum kicks about 3 times as bad as a M44 Mosin

Are we talking zombies that are sensitive to light, smell or noise? Are they fast or slow? Are all of them basic humans or are variations similar to the infected in the L4D games around? How many other survivors are there? How big is the ammunition, food and water supply? What continent am I on? Do I get an umbrella? Are high-explosives available? MANPADs? Tanks? Which year is it? Is electricity still on? Are the other survivors primarily friendlies? Or is everyone nuts? Are there still non-combatants? Is the military still around? If yes, do they pose a threat? Did the governments of the planet spontaneously decide to launch all available nukes in order to......make the last action they ever take be something REALLY stupid?

This thread does not offer enough information to make accurate choices.

Or I was simply too tired to read the last 15 pages

Zombies are like the l4d infected, except without special infected, just the people, and slightly slower. military is around but at certain strongholds, these strongholds have electricity but the rest of the country is hit or miss, there are other survivors mostly friendly, and your in america. Theres a scenario.

Can the zombies be the former humans from Doom? They shoot back, that's fuckin' scary.
