I thought Zombies ate brains? I think I'd pass on taking his chow! :shock:
Well if a few zombie soldiers with field packs come wondering by and I get a chance to put them down their 3 - 5 day supply of
MREs should still taste good. Just wipe off any blood and brains and dig in. :lol:

I think I would favor a 12 guage shot gun with 18.5 barrel and semi-automatic or level action rife for anything more than 25 yards or so. The rife in either 7.62 (39 or 51) or 44M. I think at least you could take a lot with you. I don't want them to get close enough to have to use a handgun.

Brains are available in many supermarkets and most specialty meat markets. Purchase brains that are a bright pinkish-white color, plump and firm. They are very perishable and should be used the day of purchase. Brains must be well washed, then BLANCHED in ACIDULATED WATER. They can then be poached, fried, baked or broiled, and are particularly delicious when served with BEURRE NOIR.

My dessert choice after this meal is "Lady Fingers".

Lol...

I might snoop around & see if I can find a couple more P-64s in my area. They are simply irresistible. At half the price of a modern semi auto, I can pass a couple out to my fellow zombie survivors to help hold down the fort.

I put 17lb springs on my '68 & '69. Feels much more reasonable.

I also have a WASR-10 AK & a 20ga 870 Express.

No brainfest over here, Jack.

As much as I like the idea of supporting local Ohio business, I can't in good conscience endorse Hi-Point C9's as good weapons. I've seen too many people report jamming problems after even mildly extended use. I'd recommend a taurus model 709 slim for 9x19 compact use before anything hi point.

The issue tends to be exactly the opposite: failure to break-in the firearm. Additionally, the magazines for the C9 are often a bit wonky and require a bit of tweaking. Once the magazines are tweaked and 50-100 rounds of break-in have been run most C9's will settle down and be quite reliable.

The problem is that most people who buy a C9 are either new shooters or don't have much money anyway. Being new shooters they are unfamiliar with break-in period on new firearms and unaware of the possibility that magazines might need tweaked. Being low on cash, they're less likely to run 100 rounds through it "just 'cuz."

No golf clubs? What about a good old fashioned Louisville Slugger? Failing that what about the ole zombie movie standby ... the machete.

+1 on passing on zombie chow. I have a brain can't fathom eating someone elses. I see what other people use for brains gotta watch your diet, some people say you are what you eat.
