Bayarad

.357 magnum for the right hand, .45 cal. M-1911 for the left hand, a crapload of hollow points for both, and a 20 Guage for the wifey! We are good to go! Still wish I could have Snake's flamethrower from John Carpenter's "The Thing!"

I don't own a gun, but have learned a lot from this thread! Oh by the way, I don't think I will be visiting any of you anytime soon! Ha ha

I like my pistols.  I have an S&W 686 (357 magnum) & a Colt 1911 .45.  I guess I would use the .45 should any zombies come calling.  That'll send them back to wherever they came from in little pieces!

GLOCK .45, .40, and Sig .380 w/ laser to play around with.

If an armed zombie is on your porch about to steal your BGE, what do you go to? 

A match.  Light the BGE.  No zombie is going to pickup a hot BGE.

Geez, what overkill. Zombies are taken out with a blow/bullet/chop/screwdriver/axe to the brain, does nobody watch "The Walking Dead"?.

I have wondered the same thing.  I would be carrying my 10/22, and maybe something bigger on my side.  Side note, just like Deputy Rick Grimes, here's what I carried when I was on the road.

Ooh, nice wheel gun!  Is that a Colt Python?  When confronted by a zombie I'll pull out my Colt .38 Detective Special.

After careful thought, my choice for a go to gun would be my ruger 10/22. I chose it for its light weight ammo. A fully loaded 30 rd mag of 5.56 weighs about one pound. A combat load (and plenty heavy) for the trigger pullers in Afghanistan is 210 rounds or 7 fully loaded mags. I could carry 500 rounds of .22lr in my pocket.

210 rounds may sound like a lot but trust me, when the SHTF 210 goes pretty quick.

So, a ruger 10/22 with a Tapco Intrafuse stock coupled with a Weaver 2x7 scope. Lots of Buttler Creek "Steel Lips" magizines.

Squirt Gun with Tabasco inside. I would then shoot the Zombies in the eye. Never Fails

I find it hard to believe (pun intended) no one owns an assault weapon.

I wonder how the media made these guns up.Never saw or read about one in any gun publication in almost 40 years.

Although I own a Glock 9mm Luger, a Sig P238 .380, a Dan Wesson .357 Magnum, and a Ruger Mini 14 assault rifle, I cannot imagine using them with deadly force, unless my wife and dogs were threatened.

I have insurance for my property, and replacing those things are far more easier than replacing my conscience for killing someone.  If you walk the path of Tao, it should be intuitive.

I do enjoy target shooting with my guns.

I think that's most people's goal. But unfortunately there is a reason it's called self-defense. I'd gladly hand over my material possessions. Not always that easy. One of my goals is to never have to use any of my weapons on a person.

+1 howdy. Some sanity right there

The way some folks talk, you'd think they were eager for the chance.

Have you served? deployed? to the sand box?

You would'nt know. Enjoy your freedom.

Some had to do what it took to come back to said wife and kid and dog.

That's an expert move if you can pull it off, giving your opinion on something and then suggesting we all move on because you believe everything's been said that could be said.

travisstrick

@aviator he's an army vet.

travisstrick

And as an infantryman who has deployed several times to both Iraq and A-Stan, I'm embarrassed. Military service and deployment to a combat zone are not required to have an opinion on self defense or the use of firearms. Gary is a solid American. I know him personally. I'd have him in my foxhole anytime.

Thank you Travis.  The same goes for you too.

Gotta admit that when I saw the Howdy_Doody post I was hoping to see one of those off-the-charts recipes and pics of a cook that I could only dream about.  Perhaps next time.

@ howdy, We are brothers then.

I am very passionate about service men, and trashin the Military. I have had numerous deployments, as a forward support Doc on the ground and stateside to support AW2. Yes, Its a sore spot for me.

Thanks Travis. I am a LTC,  a grunt too with a CMB. I really appreciate what you have done here.
