If your running any kind of ammo it needs to be FMJ...
HP's are designed to slow and stop inside the body causing tissue damage. Zeds do not mind the aesthetic holes your putting in them. |

I love a 12ga shotgun just as much as the next guy but the one draw back is capacity and reload time. For Z-Day i am also a fan of 9mm due to the higher capacity in most cases.
If confronted by 30-40 dead heads i would much rather have my AR with 31 rounds in it backed up by my XDM-9 with 20 rounds in it. I also have a shotgun setup with a mini chest rig but if i ever had to go on the run i am grabbing the AR. |

One could always get a .30 cal semi auto rifle, M1A1, .308 AR, etc.... have your shot gun slung on your back or in a scabbard and a pistol with FMJ for the rounds.... just my 2 cents.

Interesting....I guess I should have been more specific.....for the most part...the combo I suggested was more for close range...as in trying to get out.....but if I would have the distance...then I would use my AR-10 and M-15 for LONG and MEDIUM range....but none the less....a FLAME THROWER would be more to the point.....LOL

If you're exposed and on the move, a AR-type carbine with a full complement of mags. If in a barricaded, static position, a 10/22 with a couple of bricks of .22LR. Anyone else with any other opinion is simply waiting to become zombie chow. |

depends if you are one of the people that thinks you could survive just running around you'll need a highcap.. but if you are locked down some where. say a roof top of your house.. it doesnt really matter if you had your place secured good!

A shotgun would be a good choice in a siege/defensive position type scenario,but as a main gun it has a few drawbacks in addition to being slow to reload.Limited range,most have rudimentary sights,and most common designs are based on civilian firearms that lack the durability of military based weapons.The Saiga shotguns are an improvement in a lot of these areas,but the weight of spare mags and ammo are still a concern for me. I'm not getting rid of my shotgun anytime soon and plan on getting another one, but my first choice for Z Day/SHTF is going to be an AR. |

Didn't think I needed to spell it out for everyone... Guess I was wrong... And we are talking about zombies... There is not tissue shock from damage. Penetration is king in the zombie world as you must penetrate their skull in order to kill them... Also the best thing about the Pow'rBall ammo is not so much the "smoother" feeding as much as it help the round to reliably expand. Which would actually be worse for zombies than normal HP's since they would have a chance to "clog" the cavity and act more like a FMJ and penetrate further. |

Why hasn't anyone said an AK. You've got 7.62x39 which even out to about 200 yards will be pretty accurate.... and very effective. Dependable, reliable, rugged, inexpensive to purchase and shoot, and like AR's there are a lot of them out there. Don't get me wrong about AR's cause that is my primary rifle, but when encountering the "undead", I think an AK would be promoted to my primary weapong of choice with my Glock 34 on my hip.
Anyway... just my 2 cents. |

I like the .45 acp 230 gr. FMJ For a pistol round and a good AR for the CQB stuff. I have a Savage 110 in 7 mag that lay the down at a long distance, and finally a mossy 500 that will help in the event I can't keep them at a reasonable distance.

A shotgun will down pretty much any living threat you will encounter in one blast to the torso. Zombies will require more care when aiming, so a heavy, slow and hard kicking weapon might not be the best choice. |

I'm gonna have to disagree with the shotgun thing a little bit. A Tromix Siaga with a 20 round drum would be absolutely devistating. I do agree that mags & ammo are much larger and hevier, but as far as a shotgun goes, it's the best you can get for Z-Day.
As far as like a pump or a semi (tube fed), then yeah, AR or similar carbine all day, but if I could put my hands on a Tomix, I would be more torn. I would probably end up going assualt rifle, but for room clearing & holding down the fort, the Tromix would be VERY nice to have.

After watching the series and other modern movies... I would have to say the 12ga shot gun...and or the .45 ACP with hollow points...being you have to sever the brain stem or eliminate the brain...these seem the best................this might have been posted before...but I can't find...............BRAINS.....sorry......LOL............IT SASS
12 gauge, only useful at close range and the rounds are several times heavier and bulkier than most other ammo (you can have 6-8 9mm rounds for the same size/weight and the 9mm will have a longer range - 3 to 4 5.56 rounds with still an even larger gain in range). 
.45 ACP? Again you can carry more 9mm rounds for the same load, and 9mm guns tend to be higher capacity for the same size. Would you rather have 17 rounds of 9mm or 8 rounds of .45 ACP? Against a brain either will do the same job, with the 9 you can take down over twice as many Zeds. IMHO there are 3 rounds for a carbine 5.45, 5.56, or 5.7. 5.7 has the advantage in weight/size/recoil (and you can use it in a carbine as well as a handgun) but it's the least available (meaning expensive to stock, near impossible to scrounge. 5.45 and 5.56 are similar in size/recoil/weight/ and effective headshot range. 5.45 is cheaper to stock, but generally 5.56 is going to be easier to find (to purchase or scrouge) and is FAR easier to reload. If you need to shoot something other than a Zombie the 5.56 is going to be the most potent and flexible of the 3 rounds.
For handgun nothing beats 9mm for availablity and cost while still retaining sufficient terminal performance against both the living dead AND raiders. |

It's not just the rifle, but most of the ammo sold for it is of 'plinking' quality and is below western standards for accuracy.

It seems like it was a show on the history channel about the best rifles ever made is where i saw that. Completely valid argument. The AK is capable, most shooters are not (I would say because most shooters need to get their ass away from the bench). Another reason the AK is usually touted as being so inaccurate is because of the way the Soviets used them. Soviet doctrine was always that "quantity has a quality all its own." The rifleman with an AK was to suppress the enemy while others would flank, or ideally, comrades would just run them over in a T54. A 7.62 AK, firing one shot at a time can produce head sized groups at 100 yards as long as the shooter does their part. A 5.45 or 5.56 AK is pretty much on par accuracy wise with an M4. The main drain on semiautomatic accuracy for the AK is the sights, but there are other options available, and plenty of reliable solutions for optics. |

Whatever the LEO and military types are carrying...I'm carrying. More ammo for me that way.
That being said, I'm thinking of selling my AK and building an AR. I've had ARs in the past, now I want another. 
I don't like 9mm either, but if I find any weapons on the walking, rotting corpse of an LEO or .mil type, I'll head shot him and take it and whatever ammo he has. Too bad you can't carrying as much shit on your person as the dude can in Fallout 3/New Vegas.
There's so many damn movies out there that don't scrounge weapons and ammo at every chance they get. The only movie I really remember is the ARFCOM training film called RED DAWN. |

My 2 WASR 10's shot Minute of Bunny at 100 yards and that equals Minute of Zed Brain at 100. If you miss 9/10 shots at 100 yards on a man size target you suck, hard. The AK isn't my first choice, its probably my last, but it's still up to the job. Personally I'm going to use my G36C or OSW come Zday.
A good carbine, in a group of people with good carbines is your best bet. I'd say go with a piston run gun, or on a budget an AK74. .223 or 5.45 is a minimum, any smaller and your going to have a hard time dealing with other desperate survivors. Run it alone and your Zed food. If you want a shotgun, get an SBS or AOW size, or travel with a large group. It has a place in a Squad but Solo, not a chance. |

what about a silencer on your ar so they can't hear you take em down? I mean lets be real, most of us live in a area with at least 1500-10000 people, so chances are we wanna get the hell outta urban areas and find somewhere you can have standoff. So moving outta a urban area should be stealthy right? Just thinkin you might have better chance of survival. Just my random thoughts. silencer? ummm....yeahhhhh...............Now wait just a sec before you dismiss me as a dork, in the movies what always brings the hordes of zombies running? Sound and movement, because it means food. So why would a silencer be a bad idea? Just saying. Unless you want a mass of flesh eaters coming your way to run your ammo supply down and make any kind of movement to be a wild ass run for life, whats wrong with a silencer? hmmmmmm? If you're gonna take down 1 or 2 shamblers, why not use a hatchet/sword/machete. It's quieter then a suppressor, saves ammo and best of all, no running for your lfe. But, if you're surrounded by shamblers, you're screwed anyway. Their moaning attratcs others. Ragers is an entirely different approach. But we all know in the Zombie forum...a true Zombie is a brain dead shambler with limited motor-skills.

Yes i totally disagree with AK's being inaccurate. My Mac 90 is wonderfully precise. its not stock tho, but that doesn't really matter.
I would def take my AAC suppressed AR for two reasons, 1. supressed, and 2. i can carry more ammo. M&P9 for the same reasons. commie steel mags full of 7.62 are heavy. plus any american forces ( military, police, ect.) that die will prob have compatible ammo on them for what i have. |

plus, i remember hearing somewhere on the military channel that the AK47 have taken more lives than any other model firearm made.
now rather thats true or not, ( i can see it being true ) you don't get a stat or a rumor like that with a rifle that hit 1/10 @100 yards. |
