1 weapon to use In zombie apocolypse

[Khardis]

9mm Glock for regular range, sawed off shotty for close range, either a hanzo katana or a serious medieval mace with extra pointy edges for hand to hand.

Funny, I was a member of this forum years ago before they changed it and we used to endlessly discuss these exact same topics. SRP76 is right, every weapon is flawed. But if you have to choose one, don't pick one that makes a lot of noise and runs out of gas or ammo. That tomahawk that Yojimbo talked about is awesome. I'd hate to get that close but like I said, running out of ammo sucks. Here is another axe from that same website I like. http://www.agrussell.com/knives/by_t...battle_ax.html

Looks pretty vicious too! Yeah, wouldn't want to get close enough to use a tomahawk either, but if things get that hairy, it might be easier to use that at close range than a long barrelled firearm that can be easily grabbed by a ghoul. My choices listed on a similar previous post are as follows: M-1 .30 cal carbine Ruger .30 cal Blackhawk Pistol (or Raging Thirty .30 cal DA pistol) .22 Explorer Pistol Special Forces Tomahawk

Nice axes but the prob is that you can't take yourself out when overwhelmed. So axes or pipes, what have you, and a nice little Derringer for those moments when you "haven't got time for the pain" as the old pain med ad went.

Again, my major problem with axes, tomahawks and other hafted weapons is that they tend to penetrate and get stuck in things. That's not a good quality when you might have to take on more than one opponent at a time and your first opponent may not be dead in one swing...and crawling its way up your axe handle

[mista_mo]

are fictional weapons allowed? if so then an Imperial guard standard issue las gun. Can remove a human limb with ease, pin point accuracy, power cells replentish in the sunlight, very little in the ways of moving parts, sturdy, reliable, powercell is good for 60 shots or so, and it is light.

[Publius]

M-4 assault rifle, with a red dot sight and suppressor. Roger that. Add an underslung 12-gauge and a .22LR drop-in conversion kit and you have a single weapon system that's ready for just about anything.

The topic title says 1 weapon... I would say a 10/22 from Ruger. I would like a blunt instrument as well but I will go with the topic heading.

[DubiousComforts]

There is no single weapon that can be used to deal with a zombie infestation. Sure there is: fire. You'll never run out of it while there are walking corpses to burn. The living dead can't use it and are afraid of it. A bullet doesn't stop a zombie unless you target the brain, yet fire stops a zombie every time 'cause they go up pretty easy.

[Trencher]

Killing it with flame would take some time as it would require third degree burns or more I would imagne. At what is one of the buring zombies starts grabbing you in its panic? You get both burned and strangled. Also a burning zombie running around like a um.. burning zombie is just a disaster waiting to happen, you just know it will run right into the gas tanks or whatever.

H&K MP5 SD6 9mm is a popular and readily available cartridge. Plus MP5 SDs are silenced (hence, SD for all the english and gun noobs here). Silent and deadly. Back off, zombie scum! Good for taking out wannabe badass biker hotshots too if you have to. Get some!

[clanglee]

Yeah, Fire as a weapon is dangerous to control. Give me a sharp short sword. Good for piercing and easy to pull out. Capable of chopping as well.

[Bub666]

Fire is a bad weapon.You could burn your house down,and all your supplies.

The chainsaw is a total deathtrap. It's loudness will draw all the ghouls right towards you, and it runs out of fuel very quickly. Plus there's the risk of hurting your self by accident. Although, I must agree with you, it would be awesome to do! Personally, I'd take a machete. It's light, durable, and never needs fuel or reloading. It's a very deadly weapon. If it absolutly MUST be a chainsaw the you might as well go with the chainsaw bayonet gun from gears of war. Can't go wrong there. Few weapons are as bad as as that.
