Zombies/aliens/terrorists attack..what's in the same room as you which you can defend yourself with?

[no_more_usernames]

Ive got a replica buster blade!
...
but i'd probably grab the nearby yaoi paddle

 

[runnernda]

A wooden paddle.

What? I was in a sorority.

 

[Sky Captanio]

A sharpened replica of Sting. I'll stab you up.

 

[MagnetoHydroDynamics]

A cherry-oak sword from kendo practice, knife, duct tape, WD-40, screwdriver and pliers.

I'll McGyver them to death.

Or I'll develop psychic powers and ass-whoop them with my mind.

 

[superbatranger]

I have 4 textbooks I can use as blunt weapons.

Oh Christ, I'm fucked.

 

[Mr.Mattress]

A wheel Chair (Chair with Wheel's, not a Wheel Chair). It's an effective weapon.

 

[jultub]

Hatchet, knife, bottles of coke, a laptop, a chair... I think that's all that can be used as weapons in any way

 

[Thedayrecker]

If Left 4 Dead (2) has taught me anything, I've got 3 guitars nearby that double as weapons. Unfortuantly the fourth man is fucked...

 

[gorgutz13]

Let's see, I got a WWII Thompson, a sharpened Frostmourne replica, an electric Guitar, my computer tower, original Xbox, thick glass bottles of root beer, my authentic claymore, a viking shield and sword, English Knight armour, and a spiked ball and chain. I'm a weapons fanatic but everything else is being stored in the furnace room down the hall.

 

[Nazz3]

A broken lamp. And an old airsoft gun...

I guess I can just take my belt and whip them with it, lol..

Edit: oooh wait, I got glass bottles too.

 

[Wilderbeast]

A Kenny Rogers Vinyl and some old Yugioh Cards...Polymerization Blue Eyes and Kenny to form, Santa's Lizard Helper!

 

[The Eggplant]

Well, I'm currently in the kitchen, sooo...a hatchet, a cleaver, a handful of smaller but no less efficient cutting knives, chairs, and a yardstick.

If I'm allowed to dash about fifteen feet into my room, though, I suddenly have a Chinese dao, a pair of Indian punch daggers, a machete, and a Sig Sauer P226 Elite. On the whole, I think I'd risk the transit.

.40S&W? Railed? How's that shoot?

My particular one's chambered in .357, although I understand that .40 is the standard and preferred caliber. Mine's also not railed, and honestly when I got it I don't recall even being given the option to rail it. I understand that the P229's and P226 Combat's come equipped with a standard rail, but my Elite didn't.

As for the shot, I'm going to assume you're interested in the actual feel of it, which is very smooth. The ergonomic grip that I got built into mine definitely helps, but I've been told that even with the standard wood grip it's pretty level. Single aimed shots go almost exactly where I want them to even with iron sights, and even quick flurries of shots deliver surprisingly little recoil for a fairly high-power sidearm.

That sounds pretty much exactly like what I've been hearing... Would you suggest it is as a good pistol for a beginner? I've been really interested in them, but my experience with handguns is limited at the moment to a .22LR reproduction of the Colt Single Action.

Honestly, I've never fired a Colt before, but if the recoil on a .22L/R is anywhere near the same as the reputed recoil on the .45's, you'll probably be fine with a SIG. That said...yes, I do recommend it, but with the caveat that if you're a real honest-to-God beginner, you get one custom-made with an ergo grip and chambered in 9mm. The grip improves accuracy and helps absorb the shock of a recoil if you decide to just go bullet-crazy for a minute or two, and chambering it with 9mm will make it a little easier on you control-wise. No matter what it's chambered in, SIGs are infamous for being biiiig sidearms...the P226/228/229 series is better than most for control, but chambering in 9mm gives you the best chance of maintaining accuracy and minimizing recoil if you're a real beginner. If you're OK with that .22L/R, by all means go with .357 or .40, but from the sound of your post I'm guessing you'd be more comfortable with a 9mm.

 

[Leftnt Sharpe]

I am frankly disturbed by the number of weapons that some people here some to have close to hand. I suppose I could always use my 360 power brick for offensive purposes.

 

[Zach Steadman]

A few Damascus Steel Combat Knives, an a 9mm Pistol, a broken Microwave(lol radiation)

 

[Wilderbeast]

I suppose I could always use my 360 power brick for offensive purposes.

Ha Powerbrick! That just might work, excluding the fact a strong gust causes it to devour whatever game I'm playing. Imagine what hand to head combat would do?!

Recoil doesn't bother me over much, I said my only PISTOL experience was with a .22LR. I can quite happily fire a .223 and 54R 'til the proverbial cows come, and I'm getting a chance at a Cz.52 and a .454 revolver tomorrow morning. Thanks for the suggestions though.

 

[Deadlock Radium]

I have a hat and a cane, I'd use them to entertain them to death.
Also, I've got one big ass knife, a switchblade or shiv or whatever, a smaller knife and a Leatherman.

 

[nuba km]

large scissors (15cm blade) and screw driver I can use the screw driver to make the scissors two knives

 

[Rasputin1]

I have.. A Cutlas, an old Katana, about three ornamental knives, a Compound bow, Nunchucks, Hatchet, and there's a hammer 'round here somewhere.

 

[Vilcus]

A giant wooden tree branch that could probably break someone if I hit them with it. That's about it though, so I'm pretty defenseless here (unless what I'm fighting isn't physically strong, or doesn't have the ability to infect me or anything, then I could just tackle it to the ground).
