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.
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".
I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.
oh,you know. in a basement...cooking ponies into cupcakes....
if there rage zombies id stay hidden for a few weeks/months til they all starved to death. then id come out and go live all happy no law like.

Feth it, if it were like Fallout three then feth the small stuff, I'd use this:
Spoiler:
Pah! Why bother with Peashooters like that when you can have this?
Spoiler:
GENTLEMEN! I got this covered.
But really another Zombie thread? Oh yea its the new month. Ok RAGE zombies, wouldnt change tactics to much, except for be less stingy on the ammo, like FITZZ said, those bastards die to bullets, unlike Ramaro zombies
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.
I lol'ed. Those moments are so damn predictable too. Scary dark house? ZOMBIEINMUHFACE! Dark alley with low visibility? ZOMBIEINMUHFACE!! Inappropriate sex scenes? ZOMBIEINMUHFACE!!!!

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.
