You all epically fail. Possibly the best weapon to take out a zombie is with a standard Hunting rifle.

The bolt action rifle is a product of the nineteenth century; these weapons are regarded as obsolete now. Why use a hunting rifle when you can own a sub-machine gun? Such arrogance is simply unfounded, its roots based in techno-chauvinism and the absence of practical expense. A well made, expertly used bolt - or lever action rifle offers defense against the living dead as good if not better than the latest military hardware. A rifle's single shot capability forces the user to make each round count, increasing the chance to hit it in the head. It even eliminates the possibility of "rock and rolling" of switching to automatic, and therefore conserving ammunition. A third reason is the easiness of cleaning and to operate a civilian rifle. They are not something to be overlook about this reason; they are easier than most military hardware to clean. Manufactures know that if they are to complex sales will plummet. A fourth and final reason is the availability of the ammunition. As there are more civilian gun shops in the world than army surplus stores in the United States, (Ironically no where else in the world has as many civilian guns shops, so if you live anywhere else use a sub machinegun, which uses a 9mm round.) It will be much easier to obtain ammunition for a hunting rifle than a 5.55 NATO round. This will be critical in order to survive.

For a melee weapon one of the best choices is actually a crow bar. With the titanium alloy, its light weight and provides crushing and cutting power. It also allows for uses outside of combat like opening a locked door.

People who say they will choose a katana are probably 10 year olds who imagine themselves as the heroic figure going out alone and stopping the world. This would get themselves killed as once one zombie moans, it triggers a chain reaction of continues zombies. And the 10 year old wouldn't even be trained, nor have the muscle mass to decapitate a zombie with it. It takes years to master the katana. The chainsaw or any other sort of power tool would also be a bad choice because of fuel; one slip with the chain saw could also cut you, as easily as it cuts a zombie.

Learning a hand to hand combat more for escaping grasp, and then inflicting damage because, it is necessary to escape a zombie?s grasp. So always be prepared and train with everything EVERY day. Clean and take apart the gun every day, during the night and during the day, blindfolded and backwards, know everything in and out and how to fight with it.
THEN you may live during a class 3 or 4 outbreak.

Shotgun.It just goes together like PB&J.You know, SG&Z.
Fail.
A shot gun is only effective at close range even with a slug, and the recoil is terrible, and as the zombie gets closer, your accuracy would deteriorate. As much as you probably consider yourself a cold hearted, nerves of steel person. Your not.

A shot gun would only be effective at dropping them from 5 or 6 yards.
Any further and it would just knock them down.
It would be even more difficult to actually hit a zombie in the head with a shotgun as it is a moving target.

Dude.
We're talking about Zombies here.You know as in mythical, non existing Creatures?
I wouldn't try to shoot anything with a shotgun,cos I don't like Weapons.Nor am I fond of combat or intrested in the Ballistics of certain Weapon types.And as you have just elaborated I,unlike you I am certain,am just a pussy and would just hide in my cellar in case of a real Zombie Apocalypse.
But as long as we are talking about an attack of fictional creatures, I'll go for my "Kiss my Ass I'm a big bad ************" attitude and choose to fight Zombies with a Shotgun.
Thank you.

Well actually not trying to burst your buble.
Basements are bad. Lol
Attic, or roof. Zombies cannot climb.

And well, yes as understandable as that is. Most zombies have an innate ability to find you. And swarm you. And kill you.

Good Job.

In a worst case scenario (i.e. the entire population of Zombie Virginia coming after me)I'd go into a slim alleyway and they file in one by one, I shoot one in the head and they all fall like undead dominoes. The alley obviously isn't big enough for all of them, so I'd throw in a homemade grenade to finish the fight. Climb the fence, GTFO.

No hand cordination.

So, I'd want a shotgun, grenades, and a pistol. Weapons that I could manage despite not being a big gun person, that get the job done.
Well... A grenade would suck, they work by shrapnel and the odds of getting some through a head of a zombie is slim at best, shotguns take a while to reload, and pistols are prone to lead to trigger happiness
Maybe grenades wouldn't be that great at finishing them off...hopefully it'd break open a hole for me to run through a crowd of them though.
I am taking geekism to a new level, as not only am i arguing the merits of zombie death, but i actually looked for my copy of the zombie survival guide first

A shotgun and some sort of sword so I can remove the head or destroy the brain. The only problem would be my terrible aiming.

Practically? A pickaxe to the brain. Messy but satisfying.
Though, in reality, I'd more than likely end up dead at the shed door, desperatly fumbling for the right key.

shotgun (they can work when really dirty)
baseball bat or other metal pole
my truck with shit welded to it!!
probably a handgun Glock, since they can work dirty too

its all about the gun maintenance. hard to clean your gun when you got the undead down your throat

maybe find a really high place with only one way up and bring a shitload of grenades, and a shotgun.
i actually have a plan i made in sketchup of a whole anti-zombie fort that i'm going to build (called Fort Awesome) but you probably can't build a fort on a budget of -$20

I would have (bare minimum was far as weapons go):

AK-47, semi-automatic.
A shovel (sounds like a good thing to have...extensive testing required).
A crowbar (useful for so much more than zombicide, too).

POW! ha ha!, of course I'd need to transform into a giant Russian in order to do so but it would be worth it.
