What is your weapon of choice in a zombie apocalypse?

Sears Ranger, .22 LR Circa 1930

Ammo plentiful, easy to carry, above-average accuracy.

Heh.  Mine's a Remington with glass, but same idea.

what it amazes me is that everybody forgets that only a headshot can bring down a zombie, so the biggest baddest guns may not necessarily apply as almost anything will give you a headshot if you can aim it.  btw a shotgun is not a good idea as zombies have a tendency to not walk head to head if you know what i mean.

Semp, You have a good point, but I was  thinking of kills but rather knock down/slowdown when it came to me using a shot gun. In this case slugs rather than buckshot would suffice. No?

You Sillies, everyone knows the weapon of choice for killing Zombies is a Boomstick.

How the hell do you reload a double barrel shotgun when your hand is a chainsaw?

if you just want to knock them down then the baseball bat is more appropriate.  but if they get within baseball bat/shotgun range, then you are already dead.  in which case the only option is to point the shotgun at yourself.  unless of course you would rather join the zombies .

I don't think melee zombie combat is all that advisable.  Sitting on top of a rooftop or bus with a polearm?  Possibly useful.

Seems to me the ideal shotgun range would be around 15-20 yards.  The pattern's opened up enough you may get more than just the one you're aiming at.  Line em up not quite single file if you can.

As to the reloading of the boomstick, careful study of the film record of the incident shows that you break it over the chainsaw arm, and reload it with your other hand.

What happens if your on your roof or on top of a bus and they hoard around you and you are trapped without any ammo. You keep moving unless you are darn sure they can't pin you easily

Wasn't saying you stay there for long in most cases.

I'll take my trusty .45, failing that a full suit of chainmail with good leather boots, and a full faced helm+chin strap.  Who cares if you're surrounded by 1,000 zombies, they aren't likely to bite through chainmail.  Hell my dog couldn't even chew through my leather combat boots. (Boy did he try.)  I'd like to see the rotting jaw muscles of a re-animated corpse bite through steel rings.


Sure I'll get tired eventually, but all I need to do is find a stairwell/corner and start hacking until I've made myself a nice little wall of dead zombies.

Weapon of choice?

Katana
Chainmail (I like Hoffman idea)
M249

Find my nearest military base (about 5 miles away), camp it out in one of the tanks parked there.

flamethrower, so instead of sombies crawling up on me, I will have zombies ON FIRE crawling up on me  

oh wait... that doesn't help at all
