best weapons for zombie apoc?
>>
>>29318124
What kind of zombies?
>>
>>29318124
For melee? Pry bar and a good knife.

Ranged? 5.56mm would work fine, though I think one of the zombie survival guides suggests .22 because it's cheap, common(or was when they first wrote it) and is enough to put one down, but personally I'd want something that works on humans since, if The Walking Dead has taught me anything, I'll spend more time worrying about humans than zombies.
>>
>>29318124
22short and nothing else because why would you need to carry any other guns besides a 22short?
>>
Anything you can find as long as you remember to leave a single round for yourself
>>
I would think a bolt action 5.56mm or .223 with a suppressor would be best

28 weeks later?
Or
Walking dead shamblers?
Because there is a difference and we need to know what fictional enemy we are going up against.

Shh it's a movie other anon doesn't know.
>>
>>29318124
I think I saw the post that suggested you add that to your bar.
>>29322054
Not that anon, but is this a meme? Rated to 600m and cheap?
>>
Full auto mini nuke carbine with flashlight and Domino's emoji button.

>>29322093
I'm pretty sure he's making fun of you for not going with an AR since you said 5.56/.223.
>>
>>29322093
People in the UK aren't allowed to own semi-auto weapons calibrated above .22 so they have straight pull .223 cal.
>>
>>29322110
Like I said I'm not that anon; but I do have an ar and mvp both in 5.56... They serve different purposes
>>
>>29322114
I agree.
A suppressed bolt gun should be quieter than a suppressed AR, and quieter is always good.
>>
Best *single* weapon would probably be a lightweight survival axe. It can kill zombies and do other necessary work as well, it's light enough to pack around, and there's no ammo to carry, or to run out of.

That said just about any weapon is a good weapon here. The .22 IS a very good choice, but not for the reasons mentioned already. The best thing about the .22 is not how cheap the ammo is (not likely to be buying it anyway, just salvaging whatever you can find) but how easy it is to carry a large amount of it around with you.

Sure, if you are dug in defensively and not moving heavy weapons are great, but if you are moving around, scavenging, travelling, etc. you don't want to try to pack around a dozen weapons and the ammo for each like you're Wolfenstein - it doesnt work that way in reality.
>>
>>29322119
I'd imagine you'd probably just use a 22 if it was 'zombies' or some undead cretin... You guys should know how loud guns are. Any zombie in the area is still going to hear it and shamble towards you.

A remote control for changing the channel away from shit tier programming.

> Zombie meme a shit.

>>29322143
>survival axe
a machete would be better in all respects
the longer blade length means that both close-in and at longer melee, you're going to be able to score good hits.

Preparing for a zombie apocalypse is stupid and childish.

Daily Reminder:

People who think of literal zombies are idiots.

"Zombies" is a metaphor for the desperate masses clamoring for food, water, and toilet paper when the lights go out and the store shelves are picked clean.

But the notion of SHTF/WROL/Self sufficiency is scary to some, and so a 'zombie fetish' has become the (marginally) socially acceptable outlet for prepping

Stay frosty

so you can use it for firewood when it breaks?

>>29322443
That's why I always say I'd kill lots of zombies.
I tried telling people what you typed, but that made them all super duper scared.
Can't wait for resources to start dwindling so I can watch everyone attack each other like the animals they are.
No edge.
>>
>>29322682
genuine question, why would that anon suggest wooden over metal?

dent and bend fear?

>>29318124
>inb4 dangerous
If you're not in a flammable area and you're being chased by slow zombies, Molotov cocktails. It'd get rid of an entire group.
