But where do you think people would rush during an apocalypse of any sort? Large/important buildings where they think they can get help. Never said the cops were the ones who were going to be giving you trouble (I think this idea was taken from zombie survival guide, not positive though).
I think Wal-Mart because, at least to the ones I've been to in PA, they've got a nice stock of guns, ammo, and most other supplies you can think of (although it's not very likely that you'll get top quality stuff lol).
Plus, if we're talking looting, you can eliminate some of the problems I mentioned about clips earlier. If you're getting them for free you can just grab as many as you can carry.

actually the first place I would try to make my way too, is the Gun Emporium. It actually has a working mini gun in it. That store is loaded with different types of weapons and believe it or not, tactical shit. everything from kneepads to kevlar helmets. plus the humvee they use to advertise the store is such a great vehicle to modify and take to your local walmart.

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
Well, the Humvee, provided you can find a gas station, has a much larger tank, so I presume the overall mileage (assuming you have a source to fill your whole tank) matches out pretty well. Plus, minivans aren't exactly all terrain vehicles, nor are the very sporty: the one I have to drive on occasion can't take most turns at much more than 20mph without risk of putting it up on two wheels. If you have a supplies nearby (or at your destination), or if you know you can loot en route to wherever you're going, a utility ATV might work.
inthebutt, stop reminding me that I live in a state with far too many gun laws for a store like the gun emporium to support itself. The closest thing to useful combat gear I could loot would be clothing/tactical gear from a surplus store nearby. Have a gun store nearby, although they don't really stock anything I can't already get except a large supply of ammo. Loads of car dealerships, none of which would be of any use though, unless of course you're apocalyptic automobile of choice is a Mercedes... or a Lexus... or a Toyota... or a Subaru...
