In the event of a catastrophic rising of the undead, zombies, Naegleria infected criminally insane, or even reanimated deer, it’s imperative that your home be protected. You can protect your home with style and class by building your own emergency zombie defense station.
A simple offensive kit consists of a primary weapon, an ammunitionless weapon, and a few other provisions. John Lucas at Craftster has created an excellent mockup of such a kit. While he uses non sharpened implements and non-live ammunition, I highly suggest building a fully-functional kit of your own.
[ad]
The kit consists of an pump action shotgun, shells, large knife and a plexiglass shield. Note also the high quality instructions included with the kit. In preparing a kit of your own, it is suggested that you leave the shotgun fully loaded and maintain extra shells in an easy to use bandolier. There is no point of keeping an anti-zombie weapon on your person or premises if it’s not going to be loaded. Zombies don’t wait for you to reload while they chew on your collarbone.
This kit functions best as a stand alone offensive solution. Its best tacitical placement would be near obvious weak zones in your home, such as entries, near large windows, or in cramped locations. An excellent place for such a kit as this would also be an upstairs window, or near a porch roof – shotgun blasts to the head should be sufficient enough at this elevation to cause complete destruction of the cerebellum and pons. You don’t want a Mike the Headless Zombie” wandering around, trying to eat things with just a throat. It’s pretty gross.
Don’t forget that you’ll still need a larger kit, and should have your whole house prepared anyway. I suggest the following:
- Benelli Super 90 8 Shot Pump Action Shotgun
- 100 Shotgun Shells – though why limit yourself? Have at least 4 bandoliers per person.
- Pikes, ninjata or other polearm – for a ranged blade attack.
- Lightweight Machete or Ginsu Knife – you want something easy to swing in close quarters that will sever the spine on one blow.
Remember: a member of the undead — and a member of the living for that matter — can still function and move with just a brainstem. You want complete severing of that head! When taking a headshot, aim through the mouth and towards the back for a square, clean shot.

This is not a logical reason to go out and waste your money on something that will never happen.
the Military would have this under complete control if something like this was to ever happen which it won\’t.
Sam I need to speal with you urgently. This matter is of the utmost importance.
Hmm, you can do all your speaking here, this is a public news service. And besides, its a good idea to keep your home armed and prepared anyway.
General, I really dont think that anyone should have a lot of faith in the military at this point, simply because… how long has it been since our government, our military started looking for Bin Ladan? You remember? that guy in the desert with a camel? The one that caused September 11, 2001? Yeah him… Whats it been? Almost seven years and still no results… If we were to count on the military to save us from zombies or any other group of otherwise ‘bad guys’its untelling how long we will have to wait.
As Sam stated this is public and is protected under the first amendment. Besides the news will get out anyway with or without you. Sure you have the right to say what you want. However, it will not stop this site and it if does then I must say that it would have to be a pretty piss poor site to stop the news to the public because of some General.
Don’t worry, I won’t stop the news. And I doubt the “General” is to be trusted. Just some punk kids having fun.
I figured as much. It just felt good to get that out of my system. Thank you Sam. I must say that I am beginning to like this site. I tend to think that it is possible and with the dogs being … brought back, there really is no telling how long it will take before someone somewhere gets the idea that it would make a great medical feat and an even better war tactic. Thus I think that once someone develops it enough to use on humans then by all means, someone will mutate it for use on forgen soil. I.E. Bush or the military… some way, shape or form, the government will be involved. I am greatful for this site and people like you Sam.
Also never forget this i learned from “Fido”
“In the head and not the chest:
Head shots are the very best!”
2001 was a cover-up. “terrorists” didnt do it, our own gov did. Hitler did the same thing, attack your own nation to ensure war against another.
Fuckin’ Solanum!
YOU HAVE TO REALIZE THAT THE UNDEAD WILL INVADE PREPARE YOUR HOMES AND STOCK UP ON FOOD
i belive zombies will attack i am prepering, but honestly i dont think that the millitery will be that interested i mean i looked at a polatics report and it turns out the peoples safty is at number 10 in there priorities so that means we are last on there list we have to do this our selfs but if there is a little break out the govenment will do any thing to cover it up ever seel off the place it happend and set off a neucular bomb and say the plantr blew up
any way we all need to prepare for the worst
if you want to ask me any thing email me at:

peace out
THE MAIN PROBLEM IS THE PARACITES THAT GAVE BEEN FEEDING ON THE DEAD….
love the sighn
LMAO ok, i like zombie movies,games,books, etc. I like to think of what i would do in the event of an outbreak.
but you guys take it WAY too far…. zombies arn’t invading….. It’s fine to Imagine and Pretend but Zombies arn’t going to attack and thats that. thats like saying aliens are coming….
seriously, no one is going to take you seriously, and they will think you are phycho…
and no matter how much you saw “this guys not prepared we will die early” or “he’s not a true beliver” or “joooooooooooooooin usssssssssssssss” or “Dude there is evidence”(there isnt, its all for fun or somones tring to trick you) any other thing that has to do with somthing like that, remember this
1.im just going to laugh
2.everyone else is going to laugh
3.Zombies arn’t real, realize that
4.It’s fun to PRETEND or IMAGINE not acually think they are real
and 5. if you continue to beleive they are real, Your going to grow up like those crazy old men with aluminum foil hats on their head beacuse they think aliens are coming.
mate with all the science experements going off who knows
on contry brought a dog back to life 3 days after it died
so who knows what will happen?
you carnt rule out anything thats why i do belive and i think it will happen
you can call me crazy or psyco
at the end of the day people belive diffrent things and you should respect that
also every one knows deep down somthing will happen to end human race
so buddy dont go patranising every one for there belifes
honesty would you moan at someone for there religen
and things they belive in because of that
and im not comparing this to a religen
think about what you say
honestly
pingu_118@hotmail.co.uk
email me
I’d rather not email you, Thanks though ok, thought about it XD:
No, i wouldn’t moan at somone for their religion, most of that is within the realm of beleif im my book.
but zombies real? XD
yeah i saw the dog thing that wasnt a zombie . it wasn’t real.
thats what i meant when i said ““Dude there is evidence”(there isnt, its all for fun or somones tring to trick you)”
that video would be under extreme lock down and noone would know about that whole thing, you know what the governments like, also,It would have been on the news and pubicised not on some site.I’ve never heard of that before i saw it here im pretty sure you could say the same.
i respect peoples beliefs but this isnt a belief really….. Its somthing that started as an idea then a movie then it turned into THIS.Not for me though, love zombies, dont think their gunna be real.
your right with science experiments who knows… MAYBE some day people can reanimate things but that doesnt make them a zombie…..
Thanks for writing Jake. Of course, you are free to believe what you will. Of course, no one can confirm or deny the existence of zombies. I only present information and research of my own studies, you draw your own conclusions.
As for the dog head video, I believe it to be real. If you watch the whole thing, you’ll see hearts reanimated too — a head is still tissue, muscle and blood, and will function given the right prerequisites. It’s hard to determine if the doghead is alive or aware, or merely behaving reflexively.
Take my information with a grain of salt, that’s fine, but when, or perhaps *if* in your case, the zombies attack, maybe you’ll have learned some useful information here.
Like i said, i like to think about what i would do in the event of one so *if * zombies did attack, i would be ready.
Ok, so if noone can deny it then why isnt the world at an apocalypse state yet? Just curious.
Yeah, i saw the video watched it, and i have to ask you, dont you think it would be under extreme security and not for the publics eyes?
i mean thats how things work, when the titanic was going down they waited to tell people that it was acually sinking, beacuse they didnt want anyone to panic, that would be choas.
look at area 51…..
look at the Iraq war i bet half of the story we dont know, they are probably sending peace tredies or surrendering put i bet it all goes in the paper shredder…
so many conperices.
when America went to the moon news was all over, i think that if some one brought a dog back to life it would be a heck of a lot more famous, and people would see it on T.V. , books , ALL OVER the internet etc……
i’ve read your post guys. but to think of it can anyone give any concrete proof or reports if possible that this is true. so that some who might been to this site might also have a good judge on things. sam i hope i haven’t offended some here. well any ways thanks.
where is this dog re alive thing? i gotta see it, whether it be real or fake, that just is too cool to pass up
also, i would enjoy it if every six or seven months there is a small zombie attack on my house, you just something to keep me on my toes and my aim true. i had a dream earlier this month about zombies attacking my house, i figure it would be kinda fun.
ive been reading these posts and some of you guys are morons at the end of the day there maybe a zombie outbreak someday there maybe not but lack of evidence does not dispute its like does god exist or not there is no concrete evidence either side so guys get your heads out of your asses and let people have there own opinions
Well most ppl dont get how imminite this really is….
http://www.cracked.com/article_15643_5-scientific-reasons-zombie-apocalypse-could-actually-happen.html
this explains it….
they are all theories not concrete there are a lot of “if” in those reasons
ok i just read about that somthing will end the human race i really do dought that killer zombies will end that remeber this is from movies for god sake and if anything happend to the human race i think we would do somthi9ng about it before things start to get to a pandemic scale so please put your minds at rest.
Also if somthing was to finnish off the human race it will be the end of all time (i would have said the sun imploding but we hopfuly designed new tecnology by then so we can fly though space)
this guys is right all the way
but please want this to happen zombies rule ok if i was 17 when i t happened it would rule i hope it does happen in a way its kida of sick i hink but its cool lol
uptop sam and general and gusy dudes the danmed mitllitary is probally hidding it from us who knowslol zombies are stil lsweet lol i mean keepyour HOME ARMED ANYDARNED WAY WHAT IF SOME THUGS OR danmed phyco rapists come i nyuor house i would fucking beat the mortal hell out of them trust me (i could i) lol i mean i’m not scared oft hem or noting but stil be prepared lol anything could happen it just depends on where yuor at and when your there (what ever the hell that means ) lol
Let’s hope you fight better than you can type or you’re in trouble. Also you said lol after all of your sentances.
Yes i can fight alot better i know alot of jujistu relly hard to learn i workout every wekk 4 times a day or atleast try 5 days a week ,i know alot about guns i have seen most zombie movies they uaslly end weird uhhh and i knwo a lot about guns AS SAID UBOVE i am a tactical percion expert yes i am, didd i mentoin i’m only 14 lol lol every tihng from zombies and guns they are secret obsessoins. i dont want ppl at school to know because it would be al ittle embarrissing lol but yeh i wouild beat the zombies heads it maybe i dk
Well Dakota, I highly doubt the military is hiding anything from us RE: zombies. There just doesn’t seem to be much evidence to support it, but of course, why would there be?
Thanks Shadow_Fur, I’ve read that article, it’s quite fascinating and brings up some very valid points, which I have written about in other posts.
I’m glad there are so many gun and tactical experts reading the Undead Report. Way to share your ideas guys. Please be civil and don’t overpost! Just remember to keep a good kit around, with real weapons, just in case.
be prepared! I ahve had an encounter with the undead and I just DO NOT want to have to go there again. I am teaching my children to defend themselves against the ensuing hordes. Calling believers crazy is just a convenient way to push our scary warning to the side. I am sick of people looking down their noses at me and threatening to take away my children. I will never go to that place again and have injections to make me forget my responsibilty to my family. When I say that I am going to kill them, I mean the undead. When they say they dont exist I say ” you’ll be happy I am here and prepared when they do, so that I can save your life!
so zelkor what were you smoking and where can i get some
cause dude it sounds like a lot of bullshit instead of writing to the papers your posting it on a website
pyro, I sense that you are quite young, is that right? You are not to blame for the young mind and the young thoughts that you posses. My experiences are mine and I wouldnt want you to ever see the demons that drip from the inside of my skull but please, please, please heed the warning that I have for you. Be armed. Be careful not to break the laws where you live, but be armed in a manner that allows a timely manouvre toward the nearest bunker. If you dont know where the closest bunker is, believe me they are there.
Pyro, after years of writing to the papers and being called insane, I have directed my attention to the people who do believe, who will have a chance of survival. I spend little time on the internet because there will be no internet in the new system. If you have ever considered stumbling on a horde of undead feeding from the corpse of you mother, or waking to find a filthy, decaying monster running from your house with your screaming child in its clutches.
Pyro, dont believe me when I say that I have had real dealings with the undead. They dont come from where you think they do. They are currently walking among us. In our schools, hospitals, positions of power within the community. Get with the programme Pyro or get get a shotgun and plenty of ammo.
Pyro, Do You Think They Want You To Know That Undead Are Coming
i have a question. how much protection would swords and knives be during a zombie outbreak? and if you slit the throat of a zombie or stab it through the heart would it slow it down i know it wouldnt kill it i just want to know if it would be a waste of time
that is so cool my name is on the undead report. but seriously sam try to answer that as fast as you can so i know to go better my arsenal or just stick with what i got.
ok i have another question how far would a small pistol take you? i wouldnt want to carry anything big and the bullets are alot smaller than that of a shotgun so it would allow you to carry more ammo and the gun would be easier to operate. right?
In my opinion, during zombie holocaust(IF it would be possible) the best anti-zombie melee weapon would be latin style or bolo like machete, primarly becouse its cutting/choping prowess. Have a 22-24 inch machete blade at your side and kick (dead)ass :)
any conventional anti personell weapon will be effective in stopping a zombie. The challenge is to find a weapons system that offers effective neutralisation of a group of zombies. Being able to take down multiple targets quickly is what is needed. People assume that a shotgun will work best because of its sheer firepower. Shotguns are too slow and clumsy to reload. The undead attack almost always in large numbers so good luck taking out a dozens of them before they overpower you. A pistol will not have the stopping power offered by a shotgun but will allow rapid fire with a relatively easy reload. I recommend staying indoors when the decaying freaks from hell hanker for your flesh. I suggest you greet them with a burst of fire from a chain gun. Mount a chain gun atop your roof and be the saviour of your neighborhood. Mine your property with Claymore’s too. They are the most versatile anti personell mine ever developed. You may actually enjoy puching holes through the C_nts.
Yeah chaingun would be good, but tell me, where will you get one?
Very true Harold, a chaingun just isn’t practical or feasible. Zelkor, if you want easy reload and ammuition a chiangun is your worst option. How many gunsmiths sell chaingun ammo? And even then, you’re not thinking with your head – you’ll just rip them to bits, not decapitate them. Same thing with mining your lawn with claymores – al you’ll have is crawlers and leapers, no dead undead. And then you’re stuck in a house because you’ve mined your way out!
Read my post about the AA-12 if you want a reliable, fast loading shotgun. I still recommend you or someone in your party carry one or find another reliable shotgun, which are good for room clearing and cleaning large groups.
So the best weapons are unatainable. The AA-12 is awsome, totally friggin awsome and I would swim through a river of shit with my mouth open to be the proud owner of one. Lets be honest though, given current circumstances AA-12’s, chainguns and claymores are not exactly going to be stocked on the shelves of convenience stores. I was intrigued by the suggestion of a poster to this site which canvassed the notion of an armoured suite with chainsaw forearms. The idea was not well recieved and so that makes me wonder if we should face the reality that we are going to have to improvise wepons and protective equipement. I think that people who are able to think beyond the obvious solutions and devise more abstract methods of survival will be an asset to the living kind of mankind. When Lucifer throws open the gates of hell and the entire planet is thrown into a heightened state of security, panic and paranoia, possibly we will have nothing but our witts to keep us alive. I will keep my chainsaw in good working order as a last resort weapon even though it may not be very glamorous.
see, that’s the problem. everyone is more worried about fighting the zombies than they are surviving long periods of time. the number one thing to worry about is the initial outbreak and getting somewhere reinforced and well stocked. for this, you will need good planning. the invasion survival kit should not just contain a gun and a knife and ammo…it should be a medium sized military/heavy duty backpack or rucksack. it’s contents should include everything from a heavy duty flashlight (with one set of extra batteries), multi-purpose tool (with corkscrew, can opener, knife, screwdriver), small first aid kit (for the minor cuts and scrapes you’ll undoubtedly receive while running from the undead…and you do NOT want to survive the invasion and then die of infection…that’s painful), i weeks worth of MRE’s or if you’re unable to get those then canned goods (and you must remember not to eat anything the first 24 hours of the invasion…this gets the stomache more prepared for the hunger it will be definitely facing…they tought us this in the navy incase the ship went down and we were in a life raft for a couple weeks), one change of clothes (all heavy duty material, long sleeves and pants with cargo pockets…dickies are a good brand of heavy duty clothes), ammunition for sidearm and primary firearm (12 gauge pump action shotgun with shoulder strap, and any pistol with a 10+ round magazine…personally, i have a snub nosed .38 because i don’t want to have to rely on a clip’s spring jamming or it bending…a revolver, has very few parts succeptible to wear and tear, and where life-longevity is concerned, in the long haul, that’s where i put my money…and life), and most importantly, a radio (the kind where you turn the knob and it powers up). these are only the few basic necessity items i recommend. of course, added to your zombie-pack, nearby should be your primary firearm of course, your “melee” weapon, and secondary firearm. as previously stated, my choices are a 12 gauge pump action shotgun (with a gauged barrel for extra punch), a .38 snub nosed revolver, and i have a metal baseball bat in both my truck and my room. eventually i’ll modify a crowbar with a grip because remember my friends: longevity of our tools is key. optional items include: gun cleaning kits, spare keys to vehicle, maps of area, list of addresses for all military and national guard locations, a book on edible plants for your region, knife sharpener, extra lighters, etc…
this may be quite long for your blog, and i hope you dont mind…i just wanted to share some information and ideas that i deemed important and useful.
and just to clarify, i wasn’t in any way rejecting the importance of strong durable weapons and effective zombie fighting skills…because you WILL be in situations where you must kill…all im trying to convey is that, as everyone knows, well rounded preparation and steadfast planning is an important part of survival. and face it…do you want to be that scared person alone in the woods with nothing but what you have in your pockets…and if you do want to be that person, do you really expect to survive?
A little long winded, but that’s fine by me. You make several very good points. The majority of commenters on here seem to be stuck on packing ammo and guns and blades and the like, when what’s far more important is *survival*. You want to avoid confronation at all costs, you’re trying to survive, not eat the damned things.
You make a good point about the revolver. It would be quite trusty, but most modern pistols are fine, and reload speed is important in squeezing off those shots. Longevity is very important and as Zelkor points out, you’re not going to find any AA12’s or miniguns just laying about. Pack light, pack smart, stay low and keep moving. And make sure you diversify your survival group – heavy weapons, camp cook, scouts, medic. It sounds cliche, but you’ll want someone who *actually* knows how to sew you up and someone with a strong shoulder to keep firing that shotgun…
well, honestly…you don’t really have a choice in the diversity of your group or each team members skills. you take what you can get. the important thing, i think, is not only determining which person has what skills, but being able to assign tasks and jobs effectively. you must know your strengths and weaknesses and you must be aware of those around you. *i.e. joe isn’t a very thorough forager when we are searching an old doctors office for supplies, but when it comes to clearing the same building of any and all undead, he will make sure there won’t be any “surprises” waiting to jump out and take a bite out of your ankle.* but i definitely agree with your last sentence…when it comes to someone with any knowhow in the medical field…that person should be protected and cared for above most others. … … maybe that’s why i’ve been only dating nurses lately. lol
Very true – it’s quite important to be able to improvise your team and distribute tasks to the best of one’s ability. And kudos to dating nurses!
I took a class in wilderness first aid (WILFER), and it was invaluable for improvising medical techniques and learning backcountry medicine.

there is some great points on here but id be screwed cant really get guns leaglly hereso ill have 2 rely on melee weapons
zombies? dont think theyre real, but who knows..
what would be the best vehicle ( something in the urban area ) would you choose and how will fortify it , ( offensive, defensive, survival )
– by the way this is very nice site :)
vehicles are a bad idea they draw 2 much atention
Eddie: while vehicles are loud and use gas (which would be in limited supply), I beleive they are a necessity. You don’t want to be walking forever. A good, reliable 4 door car or jeep will get you where you need to go, something with sturdy tires, good shocks and a fast motor. I’d say watch out for fuel consumption, but a reliable, fast and sturdy platform is what you need. Besides, you can always drive until you find a better one.
I already own my BOV (Bug Out Vehicle), and he’s ready to floor it at anytime.
Aww, hell. If a zombie break out happens, my butt is screwed. I live in an apartment where if I try to run for the car, I’ll most likely get infected preeeeeety quick. So, I have to head to the roof. And, even then, they might be able to climb up there. I hope to God my mom remembers to unlock the gun case and knows that she aims for the dang head without missing…..
Scientifically, it CAN and possibly will happen (me and several others are seriously waiting for it) with all the scientific sh1t going on. I am a teenager and I can explain how a body works in full, adding in the “scientific words” without the aid of a textbook or anything. That just proves how smart kids are today. (and no, I’m not braging, I’m making a point. My sister can do the exact same thing almost as good, I still have to correct her on stuff and my best friend can take apart a computer and put it back together and make it run like a dream…)
If I’m just a teenager and I think of the possiblilities that could arise from the re-animation of dead cells within the body, think of what scientists think of and attempt because of statis and power.
Yes, vehiecles are BAD but what other choice do you have? In that kind of situation, its do or die.
[…] Zombie Attack Defense Station – Prepare your home! – Undead Report: Real life zombie news and undead… Quote: […]
hey sam what kind of bug out vehicle do u use? was thinking of making an anti zombie vehicle ( ala mad max)
Mike, there are several problems with a BOV Mad-Max like. Added weight, increased fuel consumption, and reduced maneuverability to name a few.
The primary thing you want is reliability, dependability and speed. You want to get away from people (live or dead) fast. My BOV is a 2004 Chevy Impala 9C1. It’s got a cop motor, a 3800 V2, it’s got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It’s a model made after catalytic converters so it’ll run good on regular gas. Elwood also has a spotlight and 400 watts of juice mounted under-dash. I’m working on acquiring radios and computers for him.
what im talking about is somthing closer to a anti zombie tank. steal grating over the windows, 50 gallon tank in the trunk, remove all uneeded weight reinforce week areas, somthing i can travel long distances without needing to refuel, my buddy and i where thinking abouyt checking out the local junk yards for something that runs good but other wise needs body work (this car would be stricktly for this purpose and would not be street legal)

WHAT IN THE HELL WAS THIS GUY THINKING!!!!!! or could he be a freaking zombie?
you guys rock you gave me and my classmates a good clean laugh rotflol(lqtm)
bit do you guys really think zombies are real
i would like to see that dog video
zombies arent real… yet. basicly what this site does is give people info and updates on the possibilty of zombies or zombie like creatures( ie infected or just plain crazy)
It would be considered very VERY arrogant, if not idiotic to belive that in this univese something is “impossible” have you pesonally exlored the UNKNOWN universe, or universes? a zombie attack IS POSSIBLE, for all we know theres an alien virus in space that has the biological properties of an infected zombie once a host is found. do you know for a FACT that this is not true? no.
As for the theory of zombies locally (Earth) it is indeed possible.
Look at the Rabies Virus, say a dog has this infection and turns insane and agressive, it sees a human and attacks it. Some of the virus is transfered through the saliva and/or and other liquid into the BITE WOUND. then the human turns insane and agressive, wanting to bite and spread the virus.
This is a nice base virus, altho it eventually kills its host, with time and mutation under certain conditions (mixed with a new break-through medical marval that heals and replenishes broken down cells maby?) it can turn into a real Zombie Virus.
Remember that the best and most sought after theorys about the universe and the world (eg. E=mc2) are theorys.
NOT FACTS.
I pesonally hope for a zombie attack sometime this centuary lol i will deeply regret that wish even one day into the attack but liek an idiot, i see the fun side of it! + iv got my 12 guage and a tie-dye shirt :) peace and love mate!
watch the movie quarentine very good bases for a rabies cross spread. currently its possible for a human to be infected by rabies, but the result is different in humans. it takes to long for the virus to multiply in humans. people can go years being infected and never know it. plus once the virus has a different effect on humans generally disorientation and death. not so much violence, but if somone where to find a way to speed up the infection rate things could be different
I won’t debate the logic of banking on or disproving an unknown, but the possibility exists of an animal-to-human aggressive form of rabies.
Just keep an eye on the Pittsburgh area. That’s where these bloody things always start.
not to be a smart ass or anything twards mike, because what he says is true, but there are a rare variations of dieseses, alot like the modern HIV virus, every so many generations of the virus it mutates to accomidate the various (SP) meds used to either suppress it, or to slow its process of duplicating its DNA. All it would take would be a mutated strain of Rabies (much like the ones being tested world wide) to infect human hosts and we all know what happens in 28 days later, but like mike said, it takes awhile for it to completely take over the brain and nervous system, how long, that would be up to you guys to speculate, me on the other hand, i got my beer, guns, ammo and trusty dog companion to get me thru the rise of the lovely undead err i mean infected…
oh btw, i would recomend buying left 4 dead for x-box 360 and PC, lovely game, short, but lovely, great for playing alone in the dark or with freinds online, who doesnt like popping zombie heads and rescueing each other from a speacial infected… “tear”
Have the game, and it RULES!
i believe that the idea of zombies is plausable,but it seems like wiping out humanity is a little far. definatly would bring them down to endangered,but humans are exponentialy adaptable. as for a mele weapon,dont you think that a sharpened hatchet or axe would be more efective than a knife? it seems like a blow to the neck is more likely to kill with an axe/hatchet,as opposed to a knife/machete,which has to be perfectly aimed with great force.
and its basic biology, living orginisims will addapt (or in other words, mutate) to fit thier suroundings. it doesnt even have to be rabies (although it seems the most likely cantidate) but any virus that would increase agression or induce scitzophrenia. this well known fact, allied with moddern technology (medical,chemical, warefare ect.) would be more than likely to provide more than necicarry conditions to create this new “zombie virus”
i have too get one of these kits in my house…i also need a copy of that book..i will be prepared too servive the possible zombie attack…
Ok listin up people first of all the world is NOT going to end in 2012 oh what was that it was pose 2 end in 1997b due to a metor and then again in 2000 the world was pose to end due to the millieium super bug well gess what the world didnt end and it WONT end in 2012!!!!
could a baby be turned into a zombie or do you think it would be eaten whole?
jabblesfan@gmail.com
Could rabies be the cause of a zombie apocolypse?
If the end of the world is in 2012, how long do we have till something like this happens?
General, i have to say, if infection spread like it did in 28 weeks later, the military would most likely be overrrun. and also, to all about the kit, shouldn’t you maintain the gun and other weapons, cleaning it from time to time? i’m just wondering if you should do that, or if the airtight box will keep anything from getting into it. i myself don’t have a bug out vehicle, but if i get the money, i’ll buy a good car something good. a HUMMER would be my choice if it actually got more than 10 miles to the goddam gallon, i read that a guy got only 13 miles to the gallon. cool car, nice and big, but huge gas guzzler.- hummer = BOV= NO!!!!
i want a good sized, gas friendly car, and i would definitly take the govener off if it had one so i could make a really fast get away. i want a tank or apc for a bov. my not be the fastest vehicle, but reinforced= zombie proof. if i had lots and lots of gas, i would wish for the car that wnet more than 700 mph.
LOGAN!!!
Dude. we need a survival group.
What about the truck?? Put some armor on and the zeds are screwed!
My idea on a bugout vehicle:
Pickup truck w/ metal pipes welded together as grates.
The truck woud have:
-Hunting Rifle w/Scope, 100 rounds
-Automatic Handgun, preferably extended magazine, stashed in glove compartment. 65 extra rounds.
-Dual Sawn-Off Double barrels,preferably a 12-gauge, with the barrel and stock sawed off. 250 rounds.
-Pump Action Shotgun, 12 gauge
-Camp Axe (halfway between a hatchet and axe)
-2×4’s (fortifying your base is necessary)
-a $h!+load of nails
-Hammer
-Canned goods
-5-Gallon bottles of water (at least)
– UV Water purifier (about $70, at stores like EMS)
-Gasoline jerrys, filled up with gas
-Compound Bow or Crossbow, 6 arrows (this is not for undead skin cases. you shouldn’t waste bullets on hunting, a great way to get food.)
-Bear Traps! (resetable, holds em still)
ahhh..petar..lets screw the pump action and see if we can get a semi-auto…pump action lets you steady your breath between and not waste shells, but semi-auto is the way to go…a benelli super black eagle would be my choice..great gun. and, auto can be a major waste of bullets unless you have thousands and live near an army depot or a ammo factory. and, 65 rounds i mean, hell, a glock alone can do 1000 rpm, while an ak-47 does 600 rpm. so with sixty five rounds, that will dissapear faster than food in front of my doberman….once the outbreak hits, there will be no more bullets produced, and a semi auto beretta 92fs
9 or other reliable handgun) with extended mag would do the trick hows about a col 1911A1 with a drum mag? sawed off are great compact guns, but they have much more recoil, louder noise( do you really want to attract every tom, dick, and harry zombie?) and their range is way to short to be of comfort. if i could ever aqquire a aa-12 or usas 12 or spas 12, id love it..spas 12 weighs 10 pounds, though. i do agree with your load out, and a pickup truck is a goopd vehicle for carrying stuff, but if we are taking a big one, plan on carrying lots of gas, because large pick-up trucks have bad gas mileage..APC! but then again that porbably has worse gas mileage…
hmmmm… u could take out heavy parts of truck to increase mileage…
[…] Readers will recall that I am somewhat paranoid about the risks of zombie attack, and this paper has only heightened my state of anxiety. It’s just as well that we have the internet, so that we zombie-phobes can prepare for the doomsday scenario. […]
Any one here that does not believe that zombies will invade/attack/infect/raise
then i got to say some thing GTFO if you don’t believe don’t make other people not
to believe every one here has is own beliefs ! would it be ghosts, Satan, fairies they
believe in different things and i DO believe in zombies
Good point Mike but the gov’t is supposedly tampering with rabies strands to try and make it beneficial to humans. I think that will be the cause of our appoc of Zeds
yeah no doubt who knows these days with all the meds and new viruses
logan you need to pick you up a saiga 12 shotgun. semi auto based of an ak 47 reciever. i picked one up last month, its fricken awsome, it has an adjustable gas block for low velocity and high velocity rnds, plus there are 20 rnd drums available. i got mine set up with an adjustable ar stock 3 10 rnd mags, 1 13 rnd mag, 2 5 rnd mags and of course the 20 rnd ass kicker drum. ive shot over 300 rnds and no problems.
also ive reconseidered my take on the rabies virus recently as new strains have been appearin in my local area it started in bats and now its jumped to foxes, the virus dliberatly makes things violent to spread
itself there have been reports that it replicates faster than the older strains, if somone had the (ie terrorists) wanted to speed up the replication rate , and make it more infectious in humans then we may have our virus. heres a good read speaking of terrorists and zombies, check out patient zero, good book
heres somthing fun for all you shotgun lovers do a google search for ” slugs from birdshot, on google” made a copy of the mold, its great for making cheap slug rnds.
man i wasted 200 rnds of ammo this weakend, dam those high cap mags
ooooh, a saiga-12 shotty, i’d definitely love one, with bolo shotgun shells ( two slugs with wire between them , streching out when fired and making an effective decapitator) but, how much do they cost? i’d need the money….oh well, the dbl barrel will have to do, and if zombies come knocking down our door, im sure my neighbor would gladly lend me his bennelli super black eagle (kick a*s gun!!!)…hopefully he would…..he’s got a whole ton of guns.
449.00. 474.00 shipped. got it on gun broker. the 20 rd drums are pricey (225.00) but the stick mags can be found for around 20-25 bucks, only down side? feeding the itchy trigger finger.
Honestly im a shotgun lover, Theyre my favorite kind of gun. But in a zombie survival situation they wouldnt be close to the first kind of gun id go for. What makes me super mad is that every 1 beleives the the videogame ideal of when you shoot a shotgun 50 pellots imediatly spread in every direction from the barrel. At maybe 50 yards id estimate the spread at 2 feet. What actually makes them so powerfull at close range isnt the spread its that instead of shooting someone once with a bullet and makeing a small hole instead all the buck moves in unison and rips a larghe chunk of the body away! Anyway id much rather have 550 22 lr rounds than 10 or so 12 gauge shells in the same space. Plus in videogames 50 pellots come out of a buckshot shell! In 00 buck witch is the most widely used only 9 pellots come out. Count em….. 9. In birdshot 50 may come out but past the range of 25 feet its unlikely it would peirce a skull. And if useing a shotgun id only use it for clearing a building. And if i was doing that it would haveto be semi automatic AND gas operated. Otherwise it would be very difficult to shoot faster than once every 2 seconds. So unless you have friends your meat unless there is just a couple. If you want to *stun all of em in a room* or *clear a road to get by* Id highly suggest a 10 gauge sawn down to the breach as it would fire 32 pellots in a wide pattern. Though probly none of the zeds would be knocked down anyway.
Sorry im ranting. Its just in my heart to protect the true function of shotguns.
very true, shotguns in some video games are actually under powered. im not talking about how shotguns work in video games. im talking about my real life experience with shotguns. ive shot every type of 12 gauge made. what makes me like shotguns is the versatility of the ammo, buck, slug, flechette, pkus my own home brews “evil grin”. as for the 2 feet at 50 yrds? more like 20yrds. lets see there also number 4 buck shot wich has 24 pellets. but my favorite rnd is my home made foster type slugs. shot 3 right through a telephone pole at 20 yrds. in a word devestating. my two onthe run guns ? marlin model 60 .22lr, and my saiga 12. for a siege type situation ill use my psl dragunov sniper rifle
Home made shotgun rounds D: ? sounds extreme. I wont try that cause id probly end up getting blown to smitherines. But my dad told me how he took a 10 gauge to vietnam and he sawed the barrel to the breach and sawed the but off to essentially make a big pistol. The spread was so large that when they were in close range hed just fire off all the shells in the tube and it would mess alot of pepole up even if it didnt kill them.
WEll, if you don’t want spread, try slugs. VERY hard to find for 10g, but sure to put ’em down.
And a 10-gauge sawed off. Nice.
i reload for most my firearms
hmm..sam, looking back at your comment on Oct. 15, 2008. You mention that your BOV is named Elwood…is this in reference to the Blues Brothers 2000, where their main vehicle is *basically* a cop car?
Indeed Logan, it is. Pictures at some point.
I see you’ve scanned just about every comment and typo on my website man, keep up the good work!
I definetly wouldent use the 10 gauge with slugs, that destroys the whole point! We just bought 6 boxes of slugs for either 12 gauge though. I cant convince my dad to buy buck since its illegal to hunt with up here.
use a mossberg 590shotgun with a drum magazine with 12 crates or 600 boxes of 1/3 buck shot1/3 bird shot and1/3 slug
DO NOT keep a gun loaded that uses a spring to insert the new shell. Clip or tube fed. This will make the spring weaker over time by keeping pressure on it. Keep a revolver loaded as they dont use a spring to load.
And the government is doing a GREAT job of everything else less apocolyptic.
Katrina
Iraq
Jobs…
stfu general
to think about it a 10 gauge slug is pretty extreme. If i need to shoot behind a wall or something. Or maybe shoot the engine of a vehicle.
yeah that would be handy to have in a tight [situation]
yeah a 10 guge slug will quite literally blow a wheel rim off a car(seen it)
damn i need a 10 [gauge] could be [quite] handy
mike- on your comment on nov. 18, 2009- you said you had shot every type of 12 gauge shotgun shell. do you mean like, the company its made by, or like, every type (bolo, rock salt, ll, incendiary)? either way, that’s a good range or knowledge, you’ll know what they do, how well they work, etc
not brand but type. ive shot slugs,bolo, buckshot, rock salt,(even rocks), marbles, dimes, bbs, nails, flechettes, ball bearings, nuts bolts, fish hooks, fishing sinkers,…..basicly if we could get it to fit in a shell weve tried it. my favorite? home made slugs with a steel core.
nice :D. so basically, if you can fit it into a shell, you can most likely shoot it? lol…lego studs..useless though.
is it hard to make slugs
slugs are easy to make with the right mold, logan be careful loading shells, most of the shotguns we use dont have choke tubes, if you shoot somthing too hard through a choke tube u may damage it.
I’d most likely be using my double barrel- no choke tube as far as i know.
fishing sinker? jeez dude. I wanna try straight pins. And rocksalt was the most painfull experience of my life. Just got hit by a little but dont tp houses and get caught.
as in sewing pins? yeah, rocksalt hurts, but its not lethal. zombie probably wouldent even notice it. nails chopped down make decent poorman flechettes, but range is limited.
just got done with my latest project. i bought a legal sawed off mossberg 20 gauge bolt action shotgun for 35.00 off gunbroker, cool little shotgun. only downside was the magazine capacity. all these models where originaly designed for bird hunting, so they only held 2 shells in the mag, and one in the chamber, three rounds max. not exactly ideal for combat with the zeds. so first thing, mags. they only make 2 rnd mags. and they are 25 to 30 bucks each, after some thinking i decided to go with a saiga 20 5 rnd mag. found one for 30 bucks on gunbroker..customized the mag to fit, then added a psitol grip on the front fore end. after some modifications swearing and more time than id care to admit, i now have a very compact, light weight six shot, bolt action sawed off combat shotgun. very cool, very original.
ill try to get picks soon
nice :D. I’d love to see it. sounds like all the swearing paid off!
logan shoot me an email and ill send a pick, my address is hornsofodin@yahoo.com. ill try get to contact sam and see if theres a way to get a pic posted.
I honestly don’t think a shot gun would be the gun to use.
Why don’t you think a shotgun would be useful? I understand the range part, but eventually, you are going to end up face to face with a Zed. You probably aren’t going to want to use that expensive bolt action as a club, and it’s hard to aim at those distances, so just carry along a handy sawed off o/u 20gauge. Got a crappy one I’m waiting to saw off…
By the way, Mike, can we all see that sucker? Sounds amazingly awesome.
I might saw off my dual 12 gauge single shots for CQB scenarios..It’ll be hell to fire, which some people don’t realize *cough-modernwarfare 2 akimbo 10 gauges-cough*, but it’ll pack a punch and be light enough to run longer distances with.
Pros: Small size, easily carried, large spread will mean that you will be able to hit more
cons: hell to fire, VERY inaccurate, slow to reload, only one shot each.
well seeing as the cons sorta outweigh the pros..maybe only one.
What my armanent will most likely be (based on what I have)
Long range: Winchester 1894 30-30, .303 Lee-Enfield SMLE No.4 mk.1, 8mm mauser g.33/40
Medium range: Remington Nylon 66, winchester pump action .22, .22 revolver (if I get them fixed, the two of ’em)
Close range: 12 gauge double barrel Ithaca Hammerless
CQB: dual sawed off 12 gauges…It’ll be freakin epic…until you get your a*s kicked because of only one
shot :D.
Leisurely picking off zeds: Single shot .22
I have more guns, but that’s my basic armanent.
ok dave, care to elaborate?
Shotguns will be necessary, as bolt action rifles, and even rifles themselves will be hard to use at close range.
Well scratch some of that armanent- the Lee Enfield is dangerous to fire (split the casing) and I’ll guess the mauser is too. the 20 gauge single shot, since it’s a damascus barrel, can only fire low power rounds….dammit :(.
I agree with Sam we sould keep weapon in our house but we sould try to ban togeter to try to hunt zombie so our life would be better and safer.
Hey, Guys! Don’t forget as depicted on ‘the walking dead’ gun’s are not the best weapon in a zombie apocolpyse as they just attract attention crossbows are probably the closest as they are effective and silenced
Red ghost,
Based on the movies I’ve seen, how is a crossbow better? Sure its quiet, but surviving beats hunting, and if you attack (or are attacked) by a zombie, the rest of the pack is sure to notice and pursue. Plus, reloading could be an issue while being charged at. Just seems maybe a silenced pistol for mid range, a winchester for long range and maybe a shotgun for close range. And what about the crossbows range? Seems pretty limited versatility to me. But what do I know, I’m only a 13 yr old sophomore…
To add to my last comment, I’ve done some thinking and I think every survivor will have their own preference based on previous events. Ie if a sawed off shotguns saved my life numerous times face 2 face with zeds itd b my weapon of choice for most close combat situations. Again, if crossbows work for u, work it. “To each their own” and other stuff like that. Just stay alive and ill c ya all when its over.
