DIY post-apocalyptic weapons.

[iFail69]

Being an airsofter, I have lots of different types of army BDUs and a self made ghillie suit. I would probably grab my DPM and ghillie suit for camo. Grab my crowbar, bayonet and my bow. camo spray my weapons (OD, black and maybe a bit of brown in odd patterns), probably dye some more hessian for use on my bow and quiver and I'm good to go hide in a field and ambush some fools

Well I got 2 swords(katana and wakizashi) and a long dagger(needs sharpening thought). I'd grab em dressed in all black(including a black ski mask) and head in the night, stalking, waiting to pick em up one by one.

I'd use my replica Saxon spear (first I'd have to get around to attaching the tip ...) and then make some makeshift scale armour from scrap metal and leather, oh and there'd be boobytraps everywhere

My body armor would have spring-loaded spikes in the feet, shoulders, elbows, and along the back, allowing me to turn into basically a porcupine for melee defense.

Close range: Nail gun, throwing knives, and bracer rigged with a crossbow assembly to fire boxcutter razors.

Far range: Crossbow, sniper rifle, and a potato mortar. Only ammonium nitrate-powered, nail-filled shells instead of potatoes. On launching, a fuse is lit that gives the shell about 5 seconds before detonation.

Melee: Razor wire, boot knife, fighting daggers, aforementioned armor spikes, and pepper spray chambers. Possibly some kind of longsword as well.

To be honest, it annoys thee ever-living HELL out of me that people say that they would use a "Samurai Sword" (Katana, people!) I would use a flanged mace, yeah yeah, but it's too heavy! But it never dulls! and, the mace doesn't take a genius to swing, and even a blow to an arm is going to leave it a mere hunk of dangling flesh, whereas the katana needs a bit of practice to strike fast and accurately, and even then, you need to sharpen it, and your average joe just can't pick up a whetstone and get it sharp in a few minutes. As for guns, M1 Garand with the 30-06, or a Mossberg 12 gauge.
