What would really happen if OC

It would suck ass, be awesome as hell and the scariest shit ever at the same time.

no no no same with me bro! i would shiiit myself

LOL. Those would have been useful. I only found 2.

Guns during zombie outbreak = bad mistake.

Read the Zombie Survival Guide. A machete would do you more good.

>implying max brooks knows shit about guns
i think hes right in just about every area except the use of firearms

>Implying I said he knew anything about guns

I'm saying Guns aren't a good choice. Period. Guns = ammo and a lot of noise.

This isn't a video game. There aren't going to be ammo containers and corpses with shells on them. All the stores would be looted, ammo would be scarce.

Judging by the movies, the noise of a gun will alert the monsters to you, something you don't want. A silencer does shit to cut down on noise.

All in all, melee is the best method to use. Actually, running and hiding is. Melee isn't great but a hell of a lot better than a piece of machinery that requires a limited source of ammunition that is basically a beacon of: "DINNER!".

>implying .22 makes a lot of noise
>implying .22 ammo isnt in huge quantities everywhere
>implying you can carry several hundred rounds of .22 in just your pockets
>implying bashing a zombie's skull in and risking getting blood in your eyes, mouth, or cuts is better than shooting then from yards away
>implying that by max brooks writing an entire section on the use of guns wasn't him pretending to know about guns

In all the movies, zombies have super hearing.
>Implying people won't be fighting for it and raiding gun shops for every last one.
>Implying above. Plus, several hundred rounds will impede your movement.
>Implying you can't cover your yourself with clothing.
>Implying shooting them won't have screaming hoards coming after you.
Also, unless you're shooting point blank, the .22 won't be able to enter the zombie's one vital spot, it's brain. Unless you're a crack shot and can get it through the eyes each time.

And it doesn't take a genius to know that having a lightweight machete on hand, traveling light and not making unwanted attention to draw other zombies to you would ensure survival.

My plan: Machete, basic needs. Run the fuck away. See zombie? Slice off head. No noise, no more zombie backup. I keep running away.

>implying you have ever even heard a .22 shot
>implying anyone stupid enough to go looting gun shots is going to go after .22
>implying a 550 box of .22 is any bigger than can spam
>implying blood doesn't go through clothing
>implying AGAIN that .22 shot is even noticeable
>implying .22 can't penetrate skulls
>implying using a machete that can get lodged in zombies when you hack at them is a good idea
>implying a machete can cut off a head every time with one swing
>implying there is a machete that can cut of a head in one swing that is "light"

>A gunshot is a gunshot. It will be loud enough. Quieter than most bullets, bust still loud enough.
>Not really. People freak, people grab what they can. If .22s are so common, goes to show many people use it. Thus, many will grab what they can of the .22s.
>I'd rather carry that can of spam and a machete. Do me a lot more good.
>Implying someone isn't using waterproof gear. Even a windbreaker would do. Leather gloves. There you go.
>Yes it is.
>Not easily.
>Machetes were designed to not get lodged easily. They were made to hack through thick growth.
>Don't have to hack it off. As long as you sever the nerve cord (this is based on the movies/books) it should be enough.
>Implying above. dealerscorner.coldsteel.com... Also, not heavy.

I decided to dig up some info on your .22 here.

www.gunandgame.com/forums/g...

I found many other sites claiming the same. If you're up close and personal, the .22 has enough force to penetrate the human skull once. It will then proceed to bounce around in the skull. VERY effective. But the problem being up close. Up close, I'd rather have a machete or crowbar.

BTW, did more reading on the "loudness" of a .22.

answers.yahoo.com/question/...

This, as well as other sources, state that it is still loud.

Plus, unless you've been through special training such as the military, I highly doubt you'd be able to pull off headshots all over the place under pressure.

i see theres no point in trying to argue with you further. im just going to say that i trust my own experience with shooting several throusand rounds of .22 over your yahoo fucking answers.
i guess i must have been imagining the low noise of the .22. weird, and always shoot without ear plugs too. must be deaf or something. i must imagine it when .22 goes through an inch and a half of ply wood at 50 yards too. fukin' weird.
but i guess your internet research and theories based on the zombie survival guide must prove my real life experience wrong.

I trust what multiple people say. Once is a coincidence. 100 times? I'd say pretty good evidence.

Once again, you use guns. You're used to the noise. A .22 sounds quieter than others. You just can't tell.

Plywood = skull? Laughable. Take a class in biology kid.

You're letting your feelings cloud your mind. It's making you ignorant to what others tell you. You're right, I'm done arguing. I'm not making any headway, at all.

Oh and I laugh at real life experience. Internet researched theories are the ONLY way to go unless you've fought a zombie yourself. Real life experience is shit here. If all these people from multiple sources say you're wrong. I'll take my chances and say you're wrong.

May the Force be with you,

The Great Logical Thinker

P.S. Experience cannot hold up in trial. Evidence can.

Forgot to mention. Breaking the skull does squat. You need to destroy the nervous system.

Machete would be OKAY, but honestly I think a Crow bar is the best melee weapon. It can be used to crack skulls, open doors/hatches and be used as a hammer.

>,< Guns? you guys are going to get yourself killed.

there's going to more zombies out there than amount of ammo you could possibly carry on your person.
Find a good melee weapon.
Something blunt so it doesn't stick in them.
Slow Zombies: Push them with enough force to knock them off balance, but keep moving. Don't use killing force unless absolutely necessary or you'll exhaust yourself.

Fast Zombies: You're pretty much Fucked. Try to only travel in groups with other survivors. Stagger longer and shorter weaponry. One holds it back while the other pounds the head. Stay in doors in a defensible position as much as possible. Always know the way out.

STOCK PILE FOOD the second you hear shit going down on the news. Max those credits cards, and don't really on having anything shipped to you. By the time the shit hit's the fan in your area, a few thousand people have already ransacked your local grocer so you're not going to get any help there.

Firearms are Emergency situation usage ONLY! Basically if you have to start making the bullets fly, you fucked up and are probably about to get eaten.

Fuck yeah, I'm surviving.

if it were slow zombies i would go with a ruger .22 and a bat. a bat can break a skull pretty quickly and doesn't get stuck , the noise of a .22 is less than a firecracker and is accurate and deadly when it hits the head, plus 550 rounds of .22 takes up about the same amount of space as can of spam.

if it were fast zombies im gonna use my fucking big guns because i would be a tard not to, of course i would still carry a bat. i live in texas so once zombies come around it's gonna sound like 4th of july for weeks, zombies would probably start ignoring gunshots all together around here so i dont have to worry much about all the zombies in town heading towards me.

I must say, This is where being in the Marines comes in handy. Living on Base, surrounded by weapons. Have the training, I got air crafts, brothers in arms all over. I feel pretty safe

I've asked around and must of their plans are the same, loot a gun store, get outta town fast, go to the country, hold up in the church, yadda yadda yadda. Mine is pretty much rip up some of the stairs so the zombies can't get up. Living on the third story in an apartment rules. I am great with guns but I don't own any right now. Only 18.

Problem with that is the time it would take to destroy the stairs without really affecting the rest of the structural integrity of the building plus mobility, eventually you would need food/water so you would have to move around which would be hard. I'd say get a gun with a silencer and or physical weaponry then locate adequate food, water, and medical supply and shelter.

also, if you want a good gun for cheap mosin nagants go for about a hundred dollars and it dont get much better than that

The Mosin-Nagant rules. Quite the bang for your buck, and the ammo is plentiful and inexpensive if you know where to look.

mfw everyone else's zombie plans are stupid
mfw at least if they get their hands on guns, i can find ammo stocked bodies littered throughout the street

i am part of the 1% too

all the guns you own thread go!

AR-15 .308
AR-15 .223
2 30.06's
300 short mag
300 mag
7mm
3 S&W 9mm's (One of them is my dads concealed carry)
And a variety of .22 rifles. About 9

.223? Not bad. Personally, I'd carry my .22 rifle and .22 Ruger. No recoil, lots of ammunition, and will still kill.

Surprisingly, my .223 has what feels like less recoil then my .22. I have no muzzle brakes nor is my barrel floating. Shoots like a dream though. Iron sights are dead on.

You've got a damn good gun then! My AR-15 .223 has lots of recoil

Yeah I've had mine ever since I can remember shooting. It was my dad's but he upgraded to the .308 about 7 years ago so I've had that ever since. It's one of my favorites. Next to the 1911 I'm paying off.

And a 1911? I fucking love you

Haha in the process of owning one. Expensive as fuck though. It's been a dream handgun of mine for years. I know it sounds gay but my interest in it started with Call Of Duty World At War. I researched it a ton after that game came out, and been in love with it ever since.

Understandable. I want a Colt 1911, but I don't feel like forking out a couple grand for a gun. Maybe eventually.

www.gunsinternational.com/C...
This is the model I'm buying. Not from this dealer but the model.

Holy fuck that's sexy. I love the wooden grips on a black 1911, can't really beat them in my opinion.

I LOVE that wood finish on any gun. Personally my favorite is my 7mm. Soooo sexy ;)
It's my primary rifle for big game when we go hunting. It's one of those Brownings with the A-bolt. This is it.

I've got a fetish for bolt action rifles, and I'm pretty sure I just jizzed myself. Thanks for the information random stranger.

Anytime.
