Jesus_lol Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 swords may not be the best bet, but they are better than nothing. something that big stands a good chance of lopping off heads and not getting stuck(if it is sharp!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Yeah, I was a little toasted last night while posting this. A more lightweight sword would be better as a secondary or tertiary weapon for the eventuality of close combat.

cmotherofpirl Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Personally I think a small portable cutting laser would do the trick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anomaly Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 If the zombie virus is a bod borne pathogen, wouldn't you want to stay away from the blood splatters? Shovels, swords, and baseball bats are way too sloppy and are for movies, not real life zombies. I'm thinking a pistol grip 410 for close up (15 feet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus_lol Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 there is no reason to have a pistol grip only on a shotgun, unless its for packing small. with no stock you are restricted to shooting from the hip, recipe for wasting ammo. a pistol grip/buttstock would be decent though. but effective range for a shot gun is anywhere out to 30-50 yards with a choked barrel a 410 wouldnt be bad if it was for headshots, but pump action and semi auto guns for 12 gauge are more common, and so are the shells. much more damage being done too.

Anomaly Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 (edited) I was thinking the 410 would be good for Max damage close in with the least skill while not being burdensome. I'm a bit sqeamish letting zombies get too close. It is intended for use if I get caught unaware and a couple get close. Bad call?

[/quote] well, 410 is pretty significantly less powerful and scarce than 12 gauge, and your weight isnt gonna change much (my 12 guage single shot with a 34" barrel weighs about 6 pounds(less than my pellet gun)) and your range with a shotgun is actually pretty far(much more so than video games would suggest), best to use range when you can. with the correct ammo, if you have a .22 and a 12 guage you can do anything with them(including big game or varmint hunting) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
