This year for Halloween I will be a zombie hunter and my fiancée will be a zombie.  I picked up some BDU pants and one of those cheap tactical vests like the ones CTD sells.  The problem is we will be Bar hopping in Washington DC and will most likely start the evening off by trick or treating on Embassy Row.  I do not think that it would be a good idea to go walking up to an embassy with even a toy gun no matter how fake it looked.  I was planning to at least fill the mag pouches with real (empty) mags, but I don't want to be worried about loosing them if I end up getting that drunk.  

Any ideas of other props that I could use?  It would be nice if it could attach to me in some way as it is a pain in the ass to carry a prop around all night.

Also, do you have any funny ideas as to what kind of zombie my fiancée could be?  She didn't go for a Zom-Bea-Arthur

Even though I have a low post count, I have been around long enough to know that a picture of said fiancée is required.

Don't give me this crap.  I have posted this pic, as well as many others including a few with me in them, before.  There was even a botd thread a while back.

Now you see why I don't post very much

go hand-held / melee weapons

knives, axes, swords, ice pick, chainsaw, shovel, pickaxe .. etc.

you could secure long items (shovel / sword) in the classic crossed shotgun bandoleer

Sorry dude, I was just joking. I remeber your previous threads, and liked them.

Anyways, go to Harbor Freight and get a $7 axe or saw or some shit. It will be heavy though.
You could go to a halloween store and get a fake axe, but that'd probably be more expensive.

I doubt going around trick or treating with any kind of weapons is a good idea, especially in DC.



Your fiancee is very pretty.

get a piece of crap chainsaw and mount it to your right arm.
then get a couple of dowel rods that are a good inch in diameter or so.  hot glue them to a 2x4 cut in the shape of a shotgun handle.
wala

you have an ash costume.
no real weapons or anything.

FWIW, I would rather stay home and ravish that magnificent red-head.

In the most respectful way, your fiancee is gorgeous
Theres just something about those redheads

ETA: Why not carry around a cheap airsoft pistol? One of the clear plastic jobs with an orange tip?

Why not dress like the guy from Shaun of the Dead?  Just find yourself a cricket bat white shirt, black pants, red tie, and red name tag.  That should pass DC muster.

I'd dress her up in something better than a dead girl, think after 2 am man.

she'd make a great ww2 pin up and you could go as a bomber pilot

If you're going for "hunter" just get a blaze orange hat. Everyone will get the idea then.

Or do what I did for my Chris Redfield costume last year - empty holster.

one of the old fisher-price kiddie chainsaws would work... good luck though, haven't seen one in over 20 yrs.. lol
I would not carry anything that even remotely resembles a gun... just asking for trouble in DC.

BTW.. I had no idea you lived in the DC area.... I'm in Stafford.

Get one of those toy chainsaws with the pull string.   I've thought about putting one on my hand and going as Ash.

You could make a cardboard gun. Glue layers together to get the thickness you want. Keep it square in shape as to not scare the ignorant. Paint it with brown and purple stripes, black could confuse the ignorant.

I was planning to at least fill the mag pouches with real (empty) mags, but I don't want to be worried about loosing them if I end up getting that drunk.
Use cardboard cut into the shape of a mag and glue together for thickness. It will be light and if it gets messed up it is just cardboard

Any ideas of other props that I could use?  It would be nice if it could attach to me in some way as it is a pain in the ass to carry a prop around all night.
Make the sling for the cardboard rifle from a bootlace.

Also, do you have any funny ideas as to what kind of zombie my fiancée could be?
Zombie and funny? Two words that do not go together. Just do the normal zombie thing. And no I do not want to hear where she bites you.
