Reasons not to use a shotgun during a zombie invasion

[acolyte_to_jippity]

You shouldnt really need THAT much ammunition to begin with. like i had stated before main focus would be tools to help build a sufficent shelter out in the wilderness. Some sort of transportation once you can openly scavange.

Id like a .22 side arm or a 1911 and id take my .30-06 as well. .30-06 is a bit luggy though it terms of being quick on your feet but the 5 round mag is nice.

yeah you're not going to be waging a war against the undead. you just want something to keep you alive.

Exactly, depending where you live, getting passed that first winter is just going to be as hard as fighting off the zombies.

hey if the bums in my city can do it ....so can we!

1- what FOOD would u stock on the most tho? most ppl say bread... but it grows mold... so i'm going for beef jerky, a shitload of them... maybe pasta. dry pasta or rice can last a long ass time and can be cooked with only water (assuming u dnt have the luxury of a fancy t-bone -.-)

what would u guys eat? other than brains (if u are of the unlucky few to get fucked from the beginning:P)

2- would u kill ur own mother/loved one if she got infected?

1. Anything in a can, if I can get to my 'safe house'(aka my grandparents in the middle of no where PA, and yes I've thought about this) I will also garden and grow some corn. But i'll most likely play it smart and try to get as much 'dry food' as I can.

2. I'd like to say that I can... for the propose of me living and that they won't have to live like that but..... I won't know till I am in that situation. Id probably have a harder time killing someones pet then them.

1-Rice, Seeds, Food Supplements, water, and as much canned food as i can carry

2- yes, in a heartbeat....
Reason: If they are in that state i would expect them to put a bullet threw my brain. They are already dead, lifeless, animated corpses. Any life that might still exsist would want to be put out of its misery. If there was for some reason a hope for a cure, id still do it. Why? because if you are willing to keep them caged up like an animal waiting for a cure i highly doubt you will have the resources to get ahold of this cure in the first place, not to mention you would have to see them all the time in this state.

all of this due to my unconditional love for my family.

all in all im sure alot of peoples desicion in that moment would be something along the lines of Sob, shoot, bury with the posible regret and typical remorse for a dead loved one.

I think im already set for the zombie apocalypse...

When you dont need a shotgun... a simple 9mm should be fine. and when you need to escape, you need a truck that can go through whatever like... a toyota landcruiser.. My arsenal below... I guess all i need is food and some women to repopulate the world.

Who needs a shotgun when you have a compound bow and an axe.

Have I posted here? I admit, there are some draw backs of a shotgun, but I'm bringing it with me.. And some other things..

Shotgun is Maverick, AR is DPMS. What about you?
