So the zombies are at your door. Death is upon you, but the gun shop is just a block away. You make a run for it, and you make it to the most extensive armory for miles. Time to make a decision: Which guns do you grab? Contrary to popular belief, not every gun will do the job the same, so to help make up your mind on which guns will save your life, here are my eight best guns for the zombie apocalypse.

When you absolutely, positively got to kill every mofo in the room.

And the armored vehicles they rode in on.

Two high-capacity magazines for that would fill my 2 car garage.

An A-10 Warthog would be even better......


My favorite plane, ever.

On our way to Cabo once, we landed the Citation at an airbase at an air base in CA or AZ (I don’t remember which) where the A-10’s were doing touch and goes in pairs. We were pretty close to the runway and standing on the tarmac just watching. It was a real treat for me and my wife (we’re both airplane nuts).

No, but one of these aught to hammer most any nail, in a pinch:

Just a wish list to replace the ones I may have had if not for the boat capsizing. Sounds suspicious don’t it? LOL!

I always keep in mind that, when confronting a government that has unlimited money and unlimited firearm resource, I will lose.

In the words of Inyigo Montoya, “Prepare to Die”.
I’m good with God on that side.

S&W 625 with full moon clips. Clips are cheap enough to buy by the 100’s. I have about a thousand rounds ready to drop into the cylinder, no need stop and reload magazines.

Naw. Just put a turret on the roof of your house.

“Marlin model 60 .22lr. Fun as heck, cheap as heck, and while the round isn’t too big by any means, it will take stuff down. Not an elephant gun, but it will keep a lot of marauding urban types at bay. “

I have an old Glenfield model of same. Gave a buddy an old Toyota pickup and got the rifle in exchange, with the original cardboard tag still attached. Recently put on an old red-dot sight (from a Ruger MK II pistol) that was kicking around. What fun! If they made it in .338 Lapua Magnum and it was as easy to shoot, I’d be all over it. :)

Guns are like cameras: Which one is the right one? The one you got on you.

Thanks, but I’ll just carry a sword (Hebrews 4:12). I’ll let other folks carry guns around and try to delay physical death for a few more miserable years.

What sci-fi movie is that out of?

Bet ammo would be expensive.

Whether it's a zombie apocalypse or some other catastrophe, it's best to Keep It Simple Stupid!
The Glock 17, AR-15 and Remington 870 all fit into that premise. They're common and plentiful in this country which means that you'll have a better chance of acquiring ammo and spare parts for them than you would for any of the others on that list in the aftermath of a disaster. I would add a .22 to the list, probably a Ruger 10/22 just to cover all the bases

I'm putting one of these in my backyard for anti-drone defense:

And these are dandy on ground targets (even though it is classified as an air defense artillery system):
