Whatever I have the most ammo for at the time [;)] 0 -
Pretty soon you won't own any guns so the question would be irrelevant. 0 -
I love these threads...![:D]
I'd say:
long gun: AR-15 or M1a. Mags are easy to find, ammo is relatively common, both are accurate. And they look cool.[8D]
sidearm: I'm leaning towards some sort of revolver in .357. That way I can load up on .38 specials if I have to and there's no need to scrounge for magazines or worry about jams because I was too lazy/busy to clean it properly.0 -
For my long arm, I'd choose a Thompson SMG. It's got enough range for what I'd likely need it for in urban combat. For the sidearm, I'd choose a Sig P220. Never had any troubles with mine and it uses the same ammo as my long gun. Cuts down on the logistical nightmares. 0 -
.308 scoped Model 700
.45ACP 1911A1
NO doubt about it.

I have an AR-15 and a HiPower at the ready.
Love 'em both.
Trust 'em both.0 -
.45 auto 1911 model 700 .243[;)] 0 -
AR-15 and Sig P220.
Surprised to see a vote for Hi-point, I've always assumed they were sub-par pistols like Jennings or Lorcins.0 -
Scoped 30-06 Ruger tang safty 77 and probably a Colt 45ACP, although I may decide on a S&W 57 41mag for the handgun. I want the 30-06 for sniping as I don't plan on letting an enemy get close. But just in case I'll probably have a 1911A1 type. 0 -

that's Browning Hi POWER, not hi point;
entirely different beasts.
Hey, if Col. Smith (from the A-Team) carried one it shouldn't be a POS [;)]0 -

Your limitations were stupid.
My choices are a Ruger 10/22 with a good suppressor (I have a LRM Vidar} and a Mossburg or Rem pump 12 gauge shotgun.
There can be no other choices.

Toss up between, mauser, or F191.
Toss up between 1911, or CZ 9MM.
Guess it would depend on amount of ammo at the time for which firearm, and situation in general.0 -
Barrett M-107 for long range
Stoner 63A for close in0 -

You are Nookin Futz
I have not been in a Marine uniform in many years.
But have been in Serbia and Afghanistan some lately.
This is purely personal, I want 12 GA shotguns and any "close range rifle". 40 -300 meters.
And I am not a fighter any more, look at

and JOIN up to help.
They are always looking for help.
They are the only Frenchy thing worth a Shiit
The US should have something like the Frogs
This is where I work 6/12 months
I have a job that allows it
That is why these stupid questions anger me so much

If the SHTF I would call Iran and ask for their assistance in defeating whomever it was that invaded. They have a good track record with that kind of stuff. 0 -

Oh sure, go ahead and give more jobs away to foreigners...[;)]0 -
Only things I own and have ammo for - FAL and 1911. 0 -
My pea shooter and my ass cannon. 0 -
Kel tec RFB sporter, 1911
32 inches long, so it would be pretty good for close quarters, yet it is still a .308 with a 24 inch barrel, so you can still reach out and touch people with it.
Their ammo would last long enough to scavenge other weapons using more common smaller caliber ammo.0 -
A pair of suppressed .22s. If you can't find me, you can't shoot me. 0 -
If I could get a set of wheels for the mini-gun and get Doug to carry some extra ammo, this is what I would want to bring to the fight!

Rifle, I am debating between the PS90 and the AK47, neither of which I have yet but both of which I want.
Pistol, I am debating between my Beretta 92FS and my new Five Seven. I am considering carrying both at the same time though.
Can't carry too many guns because I need to bring the sword as well in case of zombies.0 -
11b6r, what if they do find you, youre arsenal might be a little underpowered, especially with reliability issues of .22 ammo 0 -

Yeah but 11b6r knows he only needs one shot...plus it can be any worse than my 250 -
OK, I'll bite! My mini-14 and my kimber 45 acp. and a ton of ammo. 0 -
Only one gun, one bullet and good accuracy will get you the guns and bullets of your first zombie. After that the acquisitions will carry you through. 0 -
why take an AK or an AR, you will be able to get plenty of those. Don't worry about ammo availability, when you scavenge the ammo, you can also scavenge a gun that uses that ammo. Don't worry how much ammo you can carry, with any rifle you can carry enough to last you long enough, then you can scavenge if you are victorious.
Pick a gun that gives you the best chace of surviving the first few days.
The AK will be good when its been a while, all your weapons are beat up from running, dropping to the dirt, etc, the ammo will be easy to find, you won't need batteries for a red dot or anything....
But in the begining, the guy with a quality perfectly maintained accurate rifle with a tactial site using batteries using ammo that isn't very common will probably kill the guy with the AK, especially if he spots him at a distance where the AKs lack of accuracy will really show.
AKs, ARs, Glocks, shotguns... they will all be a dime a dozen once you start scavenging.
Thats why I stick to my choice of the RFB, with only one long gun, a shotgun will leave you dead from a ranged enemy, a 50 bmg will leave you dead from the guy with an AK a block away or guy across the room with a shotgun.
I suppose you could pick a long range rifle, and use the pistol for close range, but pistols arent the greatest combat weapon... Id go for a long range rifle that is also good up close.... Like a springfield SOCOM II, or the Kel Tec RFB (sporter or carbine models).
For the pistol.... does it really matter, its a backup.... something big .357 revolver or 1911, if you need more ammo than that, your probably screwed anyway, although both those pistols will be common.... so maybe something less common like the FN 5.7?
Wait... no, for the pistol I'd choose one of those bushmaster AR-15 pistols.... 30 rd mag, lots of energy, decent range.0
