Fri, March 19, 2004 - 2:06 PMWhat works better on the undead, slugs or shot?
A nice Benelli M4 should do it. -

Re: Dawn of the Dead......
Fri, March 19, 2004 - 3:17 PMHmmm - I'd say shot would work best in the "slowing 'em down" type phase. Although slugs are wonderful for the "blow thru" effect and getting a lot of 'em at once when they're en-masse. I'd say keep a long barrelled pump action full of shot and a short barrel full of slugs when things start to get REALLY hairy. -

Wed, June 23, 2004 - 7:45 AMthe thing about zombies is usually you just have to get a good head shot, so i would think although the mass of shotgun ammo would help knock them down and dealy them, you would want something accurate for the stopping head shots. like a rifle or handgun.

Based on my perusal of AOD, I would venture tha buckshot works quite nice. And you don't need an M4; a short double barrel seems to work fine.
"Now I swear, if one of you primates so much as touches me..." BOOM!
"Good...bad...I'm the guy with the gun."
heh heh, you gotta love AOD. -

Re: Dawn of the Dead......
Thu, June 24, 2004 - 10:05 AMWell, as classic as it is to take on zombies with a short-double barrel (believe me, I *have* a short-double which I lovingly refer to as my "Zombie-Killer") ...there's something to be said 'bout not needing to RELOAD the sucker every other shot. -

Re: Dawn of the Dead......
Fri, June 25, 2004 - 4:56 PMOf course a double is slow! What did you think the chain saw was for? -

Mon, June 28, 2004 - 6:30 AMi thought the army of darkness shotgun was a matter of availability, it was what he had in his department store... if i were making a choice for zombie gun with a wide choice of modern guns, it would definitely be a high magazine capacity, accurate, rifle...
as many head shots as possible! -

Mon, June 28, 2004 - 11:01 AMThe shotgun in Army of Darkness was the gun that he picked up at the cabin during the first two "Evil Dead" films.

This is the maximum depth. Additional responses will not be threaded.
Re: Dawn of the Dead......
Mon, July 5, 2004 - 12:44 AMok... my memory is terrible but the point remains that it was a matter of availability, not choosing the best weapon for zombies...

Re: Dawn of the Dead......
Mon, June 28, 2004 - 11:05 AMYes - but in for "practical" usage - a chainsaw is a pretty piss-poor weapon.
It's BULKY / HEAVY for one thing - most chainsaws *I've* seen aren't easy to "swing" or very well balanced. Not to mention that most chainsaws (unless ya get into the REALLY high end competitive chop-saws & the like) are fairly easily fouled and will stop/stall-out a lot.
Personally - I'd use a shotgun and or a flamethrower... and if I had one... a grenade launcher. **smiles** ...keep those suckers BACK!!! -

Wed, June 30, 2004 - 12:43 PMHow'd Ash get the chainsaw to stay on his arm?
If I had to fight zombies, I'd use a lawn mower! -

He basically had it strapped to the stump of his forearm - using belts to tie it in place.

Re: Dawn of the Dead......
Tue, September 28, 2004 - 12:22 AMSince a head.shot is the best place to kill a zombie, why not an AR loaded with thin.jacketed varmint bullets? That should blow 'em apart just they do on rodents. I don't believe there's any Hague Convention requiring fmj.s on night creatures. -

Re: Dawn of the Dead......
Thu, November 29, 2007 - 3:34 PMNah, 12 gauge is the only way to go when handling non-stationary corpses.
And if I know my zombie movie trivia, any double-barrel will give you around 6-8 shots before a reload is needed. That's a distinct advantage over a standard 870, plus stagecoaches look so much cooler.
