Shotgun aren't too great in a zombie apocalypse. You've got to pierce the brain and the tiny size of the shells and the spray of them makes it incredibly unlikely you're going to do so. I'd have an accurate, powerful rifle with silencer and scope and semi/full automatic firing options and lots of ammo instead of a shotgun. Then for my backup, I'd use either: A damn powerful handgun; desert eagle or such, a lightsaber; because they're awesome, or a Shaolin Spade. If anyone else has read the Zombie Survival Guide then they get coooookies. Oh, and an armoured car. They wouldn't be able to do a thing if you got inside it.

I would have a combat knife as my last resort but probly a short sword just to give me some range from them.

Half a Brick in a Sock.

Come on, bludgeoning weapons are more use against Zombies than sharpened metal sticks.
Although while I may not slice my hand off by mistake, It's plausible I may stove my own skull in.

Fireaxe for me. Don't need much training to swing an axe. The weight of the axehead is what does the majority of the chopping. It can be used for survival purposes as well as zombie dezombification. Doesn't matter so much if it eventually goes dull. (I'm thinkin' long term here.)

Primary is a M1A2 Abrams,backup is a 8541 Scout/Sniper team setup with M40A3 suppressed,and a M82A3 suppressed.

On-call would be AH-6 Little Birds with M134 miniguns and 2.75 rockets.

Handheld weapons would probably be HK 416 with a 40MM launcher OR the M14 EBR.Backup would be the Benelli M1014.Sidearm would probably be the Kimber Desert Warrior.

If I were by myself..primary would probably be a Mini-14. backup would be a Mossberg 500 series shotgun. .223/5.56 and 12Gauge..can't get more American than that. Pistol would be one of the 3 calibers..9mm/.40SW/.45ACP...it just depends on what I can find.
I would like a desert eagle in probably 44MAG because that is the caliber that most Alaskans would have in their house.

Primary transportation would probably be 1 of my dad's semis..or the Thiokol snowcat.
Finding and keeping fuel and ammo and food would be the top priority..also getting other survivors together would be good.

I would steal ipods and trade them for necessary items..

An axe, machete or crow bar. All useful things to have around in an apocalypse and all good at severing/ripping of limbs and heads.

Primary weapon: Laser rifle (From X-com)
Back up: Laser pistol (Also from X-com)

Both have unlimited ammo, can rapid fire endlessly, pinpoint accurate due to not being affected by wind resistance or gravity, don't do less damage over long ranges, and do heat/fire based damage which zombies are weak against. Seriously. It's not possible to find a better man portable zombie solution then this.

Cavalry sabre for preference and a lightly armoured horse

However for humorous exploits a heavenly armoured rabid dwarf/midget(no offence to any midgets or dwarfs you are all fine little people) at the end of a length of chain to swing at the horde in the style of a flail

Death's scythe for my primary.

Power armour that looks like a skeleton with the robes of Death over said armour. I'd have to beat them with my fists but they'd have tons of power behind it.

The zombies will be screaming friendly fire for hordes to come.

1st weapon: crossbow, don't want to run out of ammo here in teh UK
2nd weapon: hatchet axe as it doubles as a tool for survival, much more useful than a machete or knife here and again isn't reliant on ammunition.
3rd weapon: molotovs
