Seems legit.
I got nothing after that.
As I’ve said before, I’m Zombie Curious. I’m going to bat for the winning team here.
I’m going to be one of the first ones bit and hopefully will make it a point to come after you all. Since none of you have any brains, I’ll be quite hungry after I eat your faces off. I’ll just keep coming and tracking you all down.

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

I killed another girl with a chainsaw, I had to, she almost got away and uh someone else there I can't remember maybe a model, but she's dead too. And Paul Allen, that's right I killed Paul Allen. I killed a gay hooker with an axe in the face, his body is dissolving in a bathtub right now. I don't want to leave anything out here. I guess I've killed maybe 20 people, maybe 40. I have tapes of a lot of it, uh some of the girls have seen the tapes. I even, um... I ate some of their brains, and I tried to cook a little. Tonight I, uh, I just had to kill a LOT of people. And I'm not sure I'm gonna get away with it this time. I guess I'll uh, I mean, ah, I guess I'm a pretty uh, I mean I guess I'm a pretty sick guy. Anyway yeah pistols, axes, knives and shotguns all work.
Did you have time to eat any babies during this spree?

You ever seen what #9 shot does to a human at close range?
I have, it takes off whole limbs.
My go to weapon for "being on the run" is a Ruger M77 22WMR, scoped with a 2lb trigger job, 40 grn winchester hollow points. Very accurate, factory ammo of most types, 100 yard dime size groups no problem. Easy head shot's at 100 yards offhand. Not too loud, no kick, can carry lots of ammo and will kill anything in north america with a well placed shot within 120 yards.
On a side note most body armor will not stop 22 WMR within 50 yards, in-fact most will not stop 22 lr within 25 yards. 17 HMR is also very dangerous as body armor will not stop it. Too much velocity, too small projectile, only steel plates or ceramic will stop it.

more info on body armor, plates.
High power riffle will destroy a ceramic plate in one shot but not penetrate. Rimfires are stopped with ceramic plate and do not destroy it in one shot.
anyone that "thinks" they need a shotgun that sprays a 5 foot wide pattern to protect their home, cant shoot for sh!t is the reason...
Expert evo knows more than actual home defense experts. Who woulda thunk?
evo prefers an AR for home defense. He doesn't have to worry about over-penetration because as everyone knows, a single-wide trailer has impenetrable walls. lol.

Pump shotguns are hard to beat. Just the psychological aspect of pumping the action puts the fear into people.
I do more than half of my deer hunting with my short barreled Remington 870. I never end up using it to make the kill but one of these days. I also want to kill a deer with my Glock 20. Could have a couple times on opening day just driving down the road on small bucks but passed as it was too easy, when you get out of the car walk over to spikes and small 2 points, get within 10 feet and point your pistol at their head and they just stare at you its too easy.
Just the psychological aspect of pumping the action puts the fear into people.
I used to believe that too and I still want to believe it but it's not that simple. A real killer hell bent on killing won't give a chit about the pump action sound and shoot anyway. And might even locate you by the sound. Like I said, not that simple.

I have seen pics of close range shotgun wounds and yes it does major damage. But that's generally within 10 yards or so while the spread is still basically a single lead mass fist size or less. At 20+ yards with most defensive shotgun barrels, that spread is wide enough and weak enough that individual pellets probably won't penetrate zombie skulls. Remember a peppering blast to the face would stop a human, but you gotta hit brain matter to stop a zombie. That's why I'm rolling with 00 buck. The weight and kinetic energy is more than enough to smash zombie skulls. Even bb and t-shot would do it. #9 is a bit light at any normal distance.
Also, who cares about body armor? We are talkin' Zombies here. Unless these zombies have battle helmets on, it's moot. Again, you don't need a .17hmr or .22wmr for zombies. Too zippy. Just a regular old bouncy 22lr that there's trillions of already in the market. Just enough oomph to enter, make scrambled eggs for brains and then stay inside. The scrambled eggs for brains bit is the key here. Again....zombies.

You could save a few bucks on some of the clowns that post here...scrambled egg brains come pre-scrambled, no need to shoot them with tiny grains of sand from 19 inches away.

I lol'ed at Evo getting all bent out of shape over someone's weapon and ammo of choice in a battle that's not going to happen against an enemy that doesn't exist.

I'd wager that about 75% of the idiots with handguns out there would be fumbling around shooting themselves, their children, the wall, the ceiling, the floor, the window, and the crock pot on the kitchen counter, instead of actually shooting an intruder before an intruder could shoot them.
Fish on...

Those around here that think they can protect themselves with a sawed off shotgun better put down their bottle of Jack Daniels and stop being rednecks. Besides they would have more drywall repair if they peppered their house with buckshot. I prefer to do it the Clint Eastwood way.

Not sawed off because no stamp. 22 - 26" inch field barrel w/ improved cylinder. I kill the absolute chit outta' deer out to 60 yards with a full choked 32" barrel and 3.0" magnum copper plated 00 buck. At that distance, (12) .32 cal pellets going 1800 fps end up in a spread of about a little bigger than a basket ball hoop. At 40 yards, the spread is the size of a basketball. So on an so forth until about 10 yards, where it's just a single fist of death.
The trick with the slow type of zombies and shotguns is to wait it out when heads cross into a single field of fire for a multiple one shot kill (if you can, like say day drinking beers from a roof top). At 20 - 40 yards, you can get doubles and maybe even a triple every once in a while. How fun is that?
