The major concecpt of zombies is because of whatever caused them to be come zombies (gov virus, satanic ritual, eating at McDonald's, etc.) they follow the basic animalistic and survival instinct to feed. It stands to reason that other BASE needs must be served.

As such, I would take all the PORN I could find (feeding on those base desires), lead a Hanzel and Gretal trail to the ultimate death trap. They show up thinking all the photos of Jessica Alba, Lohan, and Megan Fox will lead them to the promised land only it will end up in an ambush with .308 caliber rounds flying through their grey matter.

For strainght zombie chicks following their base instincts, it will be photos of Prada shoes to accessorise with their zombie coctail dressess or hardcopy prints of IM's from guys that claim to make $100k plus a year.

In the end it will still be a .308 caliber slug through their grey matter.

Really no difference to me except the unrealistic male zombies that love porn under base instinct part. Come to to think of it...that is actually as everyday as the rest.

Mysoginsistic, is not yet part of my vocabulary. Emma Stone...I love you!

Really, she is a good actress. Think of Megan Fox incomparison; every person here male or female would like to put a bullet in her head based on talent as an actress. Altough I liked Jennifer's Body...mainly for Amanda and the Duchce that played the lead of the indie band. Fox did a good job playing a self absorbed maneater. But that is like saying Donald Trump is a tacky 1980's real estate investor today.

Go to Las Vegas now and look at his "snicker" property tower by Circus Circus. Nothing compared to Plazzeo and City Center opened or opening up.

Tangent is also not part of my vocabulary.

Emma, I love you.

For firearms I'd go with a Mataba Autorevolver with .45 hollow point rounds.

A crowbar would be my melee weapon of choice.

Shotguns have terrible accuracy over long distances, and are liable to get jammed. With skill, a revolver can pick off zombies before they get close enough to present a problem and never jam.

My music would have to be Utopium by Battle Circus. They're really good.

ok, here i go:

armor: Polycarbonite armor (easy to make: tiger torch, rivet gun + rivets, some belts, water to cool, and those big blue plastic barrels) lightweight, puncture and impact resistant, very light, and it FLOATS in case you have to swim to safety. and it's zombie bite proof, camoflaged with spraypaint because i dont like getting shot by crazy survivalists... color me paranoid, but i like being alive: cardboard needed to make the templates for the armor, easy and cheap.

weapons:

- flare gun: zombies dont shoot flares: so if i do: DON'T SHOOT ME!!

- police or military style shotgun, with pistol grip mounted on the pump (large ammo capacity, and running targets are harder to hit: shotguns are easy to aim, and ammo is easy to make) note: shotgun bandoleers are your friend.

- Sig 550 sniper rifle: anti crazed survivor weapon, semi automatic, large ammo capacity, legal to purchase, accurate, unlikely to break down, and lighter then a barrett (which is also legal to buy)...

- crowbar with an axe blade mounted to the top (crowbars are handy, so are axes) if not available: a simple fire axe.

- kukri: the machette s fine and good, but not so heavy, a kukri can chop down trees, why not zombies

- pistol: Glok... they can fire underwater and full of sand... 'nuff said

NOTE: grenades are BAD rebound = mister clappy (you can't clap: you blew your arms off), basically all explosives are pretty well a bad idea, forget about them and it's raining men (or at least parts of you or your freinds) fire = burning zombies running at you, chainsaws are oud and stall, plus kickback is BAD, although explosives attached to stray animals would be funny, and effective, you might have to eat them at some point...

- your mind: if you can't kill a zombie: it eats you, no weapon in the world will save you from yourself.

Semi-automatic rifle, M1 Garand or some equivalent.

Crossbow for sniping,
what is the use of a rifle apart from sniping?

personally i'd use a medievil mace and an aotumatic shotgun.

tho, who needs weapons when you have chuck norris?
Sniping in this case taking zombies down without being noticed. The rifle -could- be used to that end, but the noise would give me away. Note the "semi-auto" part - it's there to ensure I can kill zombies as fast as possible without going full auto and wasting ammunition.

12 ga shotgun and 00 buckshot shells for close range. Probably a Mossber 500 or 590 since I know they're reliable. Some type or 7.62mm or .308 rifle for long range, a mosin nagant, FN FAL would work well, and an axe if shit goes from bad to worse. An AK-47 or SKS would work decently at well, large bullet, low velocity, and decent at close range. You just have to sever the head or destroy the brain.

And to the above. Glocks can fire underwater, but so can almost any closed chamber firearm. Once. After that, the water causes quite a bit of resistance and it can cause problems with the ejecting cartridge getting caught in the slide while ejecting and the chambering of the next round. Even if the cartridge does clear, then the round loaded will have a chamber full of water, a barrel full of water, and an exit area full of water. It will completely destroy the ballistics of the bullet, slow it down, make it tumble very quickly after exiting due to water pressure, and anywhere after 15 feet you'll only cause a flesh wound if you even hit the target. The Soviets made one of the only fully automatic rifles usable underwater, and even then it could only kill at about 15 yards due to the water slowing down the bullet and altering its trajectory drastically.

Deagles. And a longsword. And the deagles would be dual-wielding. And I would have a back-up pair just in case. And lots of ammo. And liquid nitrogen charges. And a hose (liquid nitrogen plus a fountain of water equals easy blockade hehe).

Realistically, if I'm to think what I could actually use and get my hands on, I would go with a baseball bat, or the metallic poker we keep in front of our fireplace. In any case my survival strategy would involve avoiding them more than fighting.

If I were forced to pick a gun, I think I would go with a shotgun of some kind, since I think with it I would have more of a chace to hit something. I'm not certain I could use one, though.

Something with high accuracy, Headshots for kills. An automatic for limbs, to slow them, if I need to get away quickly. oh and an armoured van with a plow or something on it. =P

No melee weapons, what if all the zombie blood infects you? Easier to avoid bites than an explosion of blood. Also explosions are out, they'll just attract more. D=

Two short swords for in close, crossbow for distance, pedal bike for travelling.

Silent weaponry so you don't attract more zombies, quiet mode of transport that can be lifted over most obstacles.

First of all, I sincerely do not think myself to be the "survivor" type. I am the quirky comedy relief that gets killed off mid way through the movie.

Were I called to survive -

Barrett m82 .50 BMG from a secured elevated position, with open lines of sight.

Backed up with an AA-12 combat shotgun when the first line falls.

Backed up with a .44 magnum when I run out of 20 round drums for the auto-shotgun.

A no-dachi katana to finish of the remnants...

or a katana with wakasashi to make my final stand.

weird thread, all the way from scarily gun nut obsessive to silly.

- Primary Firearm: SMLE (bolt action .303 rifle), variable power scope, silencer, bayonette
- Secondary Firearm: .45 revolver

- Melee: Crowbar (usefull tool, awesome reference).
