Idiotas.

Indeed.

He is using wrong ammunition, good Sir or Ma'am.
And my point is proven by the fact that you can hear the "loud crack".

Here is a good video of properly silenced and loaded gun.

i see, i had wondered if ammunition might change the effectiveness of a silencer, nifty that it does.

The only video games I play are Mario Kart on Wii and Sims 2 on my computer. I know nothing about guns, it's just that in movies and TV shows sliencers are portrayed to completely silence the gun, thus my idea.

i also believe tho, im not ceirtain that a silencer is more for the user rather then undetectability. it seems as tho in the video i replied with, that the overall crack is the same, but when he fires a round, the sound is less damaging to the ears....tho i stand to be corrected or not, im not a gun expert

Not at all. I own two and most of my friends shoot with them.

Suppressors are an NFA item in the United States and ownership is up to your individual state. On the feral level, you have to follow the same laws you would for anything under the 86 ban.

ah here in florida in order to get suppressors aside from a 200 dollar tax stamp you need permission from the chief of police.

That's the way it works in most states. CLEO is one route. You can also set up a trust.

Florida and Texas share the same laws when it comes to suppressors. I know Texas allows us to hunt Hogs with them. No clue about Florida on that.

I went the trust route like many folks because CLEO don't like to sign off.

Suppressed .22 and 9mm have been the most fun for me. Anything that likes to stay supersonic to stay stable just isn't much fun.

not only that but you need a fairly large silencer to actually make it silent even with the right ammo . otherwise it's really just a bit muffled

Not going to argue about that..
But my point was that they would also need the right ammunition even though they would
have the silencers..
Yes, it would be rather smart to use silencers, but dunno how often you can find subsonics
laying around..
They could do subsonics by themselves, but do they have the knowledge..?

oh I know what you meant I was just adding extra info for the hell of it . and I doubt they would know how to do subsonic rounds or at least not the vast majority and I seriously doubt the writers know they even exist .

So, we agree on the subject? :D
And I just was clarifying my point, if somebody didn't get it..
Anyways, thumbs for you good Sir.

thumb for you as well . and yes I think we are agreed on this particular topic

Oh and here is a good video of silenced .50 cal rifle with proper ammunition.
Enjoy.. (:

i kinda agree, but dumbass, its a tv show, they could do anything they want to, if they wanted to make it a world where theres people who own silenced guns fuckin everywhere that left them lying around then they would, if they wanna make the silencers give that little tick they give in the movies, they could, its a fiction show, i mean really, if you're going for realism why pick this? its a show in which the military was overrun by zombies, but a group of like 10 people can take them on, you gotta be fucking kidding me if you're going for logic in a show like this

the reason why the military was overrun but a small group manages to survive, is because at first response the military had no intel about what was going on. for all they knew they were dealing with rioters. also military personnel are trained to aim for center of mass. it takes a while to adapt to only hitting head shots. and they probably got hit by a big swarm vs the group is staying a way from high population areas. its a great show based of a great comic book

we are trained for center mass yes, but we are also aware of fictional zombies and what they look like, were not complete and utter boneheads, and a headshot, while difficult, is of no consequence when you have a tank.

thing is with zombies, people get bit, get away, hide in their apartment, die and become a trap for anyone entering that apartment. tanks are great for taking out vehicles buildings. the problem is abandoned vehicles in city streets makes for quite a bumpy ride and sure zombies cant get in but will follow you till you run out of fuel. again were talking millions (billions if you live in india or china) of zombies that require the brain to be destroyed. tanks not so much. sharpshooters positioned on roof tops would be better than a squad of tanks.

well what are we talking about as far as a squad of tanks? a squad of six to eight in close proximity with ma deuces and mini guns up on the top would be more than a match for a large group, all they gotta do is sit steady and keep rotating till they run out of ammunition, then drop into the tank and roll through what is left, tanks have multiple strategies for attack, so escaping an area of infected wouldn't be too hard for a good tanker

im talking about a sweep and clear of every building withing an area. granted tanks would be able to incapacitate large groups. but then your stuck with torsos slowly crawling at you. and were talking a city population slowly following your tank squad. tanks are loud some are fast but they're range isnt very far. refueling would be a nightmare

A sweep and clear of every building? If there was even a concern of there being zombies trapped in a building, the ideal course of action would be planting heavy explosives and leveling the building, it gets rid of all margin for error as any zombie inside would be crushed or blown to bits, depending on where they were

leveling a whole building to kill anywhere from 50 to 100 zombies? shit that would take care of new york

assuming that its something like the walking dead where theres almost no more living in the major cities, with the exception of people like the Latinos who are taking care of the elderly in Atlanta, but they have their own building anyway, it wouldn't really be an issue of saving the buildings, but if were talking theres still hundreds of living inside you would definitely need to be more careful, a small tactical team goes in, 4-5 men, all other exits are covered, those who are clean are marked and sent for further examination, all others are terminated, have a nice day folks we've ended the apocalypse

Yeah you could dig a hole in the ground and hide in it for the night!

I'm guessing you don't get the zombie land reference?

Yes I did get that, but Im guessing you did not get my Minecraft reference.

No, get that I did not. Sorry, never played minecraft yet. I apologize for my ignorance.

I accept your apology, I understand.

You sir, have an epic mind.

thanks. my wife and i enjoy picking apart plot lines in movies and shows (after we've enjoyed them) and we're always amazed at how often the people in zombie movies don't use the zombies' behaviors against them.

IKR. Stupid overpaid actors and writers.

problem with that is you'd need someone who knows how to make a fertilizer bomb with remote detonation. not to mention im sure places with a crow scarer are pretty solitary places so you might get around fifty of them.

good point, but based on my base of friends, you'd think that out of that many people at least one would know how to make a decent bomb (don't most of us, after all?). plus crow scarers, while not exactly pocket size, are portable and could be taken to a less remote place.

true but if youve read the zombie survival guide you would know how poor explosions are at zombie elimination. the majority of them will just be crippled and become zombie landmines to anyone passing by

it was only the first half of season two. they split it in two so we wouldnt have to wait a year again for more show. itll be back in feb

GOOD!
and i already know they have been signed on for season 3 as well. :P

oh yea the shows a smash hit and the comic behind it has plenty of story line to go through

As it usually is with animated comic books. :P
only real difference is that theyre not drawings for once.
well, yeah, definitely a smash hit. it broke the rating record for the 18-49 demographic.

See edit in description.

and?

You'll laugh, but these are occasionally used by militaries all over the world.

considering the amount of silencers, guns, and ammunition I keep hearing about getting seized in my city, it shouldn't really be thaaaaat hard to find them. Just hard to get in and out of a major metropolitan location, like on one of the first episodes

Actually probably a lot less than 30-40, its late and i cant think straight

yeah it only takes it down like 20-30 decibels. not alot considering how loud a gun is.

depends on the gun and on the silencer/suppressor. you bet your ass that swat cia and spec forces have true to life silencers.

Belonging to SWAT and the CIA doesn't let you change how physics works.

check out this vid ((( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ow_YqRICT4 ))

cia operatives have access to things the general public doesn't even know exist.

You just couldn't be more wrong kid.

I'm not making fun of you or giving you a hard time; but, the internet changed the intelligence game 100%. We used to read Jane's just to get a glimpse of the toys being produced.

If it's made in America, it's public. We have projects running all the time. But our ground forces get supported mainly by DARPA toys now. DARPA happens to be very public. That happens when you run contests to see who can make the coolest toys.

Suppressors aren't complicated. I own a few. There is no secret break-the-laws-of-physics version out there. You have baffles and you have barrels and you launch a metal projectile through both. The only big change was the use of titanium and that's just to cut weight.

Thank you. You're the first who didn't try to use logic against my idea. I think I'm very smart. :D

Lol yw, if only they would do that. If it were me instead of r unning i'd be trying to kill all the zombies, du h, eventually they are all going to rot away anyways cause they keep rotting. so kill them all and then no more zombie disease. done. lol

exactly. find a way to gather them all up and then kill them all. once their all dead then on one else can turn into a zombie and the world can get back to normal.

yep but then they'd have no show, i'm just interested to see what happens to that asshole dude no one likes.. the one who shot all the zombies in the barn that dude deserves to turn into a flesh eating zombie

Shane. I hate him too. And it was SO sad about Sophia. I cried.

It really sucked but honestly by the third day it waslike.. theres no way she's alive. Maybe in a normal world she would have probably been very hungry and maybe hurt but.. with zombies they can smell and hear very well. She never had a chance.

IKR

like a fucking 50 cal.

.50 cal you say?

mind = blown

im sure they'll start running out of ammo by the time they reach the prison

Excuse my ignorace please. THERE IS A BOOK? D:

comic book but the timeline doesnt quite follow it and they added some characters.

Sad face.

its not a bad thing comics and tv shows need to be set up a bit differently

Yeah I guess.
