What weapons would you choose for survival and zombie hunting fun?! This is using current technology, not 40k gear! Assume unlimited ammunition. You can be inventive as you like, but stick to real world objects and you have to be able to reasonably carry it all. What would you choose???

I would go with a baseball bat for bludgeoning zombies in close quarters, a AA-12 combat shotgun as my primary weapon, and a Glock 21 for backup.

Have at it!

Toowoomba, Australia

What type of zombies are we talking about?

Shambling slowpokes ala world war z/ The walking dead who are attracted to noise and can smell the alive, or 'rage' zombies ala 28 days later?

In Australia wherfirearms are hard to come by.

1: Good running shoes so I can run away
2: Baseball bat
3: If I found a rifle it would be a .22 calibre rifle as there are still a few around.

Rage " Zombies" aren't "real" zombies, they're just infected humans, so you don't have to get a head shot to kill them and anti-personal weapons will be much more affective against them...blow a rage "zombie" in half..it dies, blow a Romero zombie in half...you just made a "dragger".

Have you never played Fallout 3?

But seriously though, if someone made a working version of the rail spike gun I'd be killing ghouls, err....I mean zombies all day...

Everywhere I'm not supposed to be.

Rage zombies? I like. Remington 700P chambered in .308, in a bag I can easily carry on my back. AR-15 for general mucking about. And the .45 for the "OHNOZOMBIEINMUHFACE" moment that always happens when you blindly walk into a house thinking everything is hunky-dory.

If you need me, I'll be busy wiping the layers of dust off my dice.

They don't need to swim, they just walk underwater.

Well , if the "zombies" in question are " rage zombies" then they would drown underwater, remember "rage zombies" aren't walking dead....they're just infected humans....so they would still require oxygen.
