AA-12. If you can find one. Youtube it...

.357 or.44 revolver and rifle
AR-15/10

.308 or .30/06 for longer range uh, work.
I have an SKS, an 8 shot “home invasion” pump shotgun and a 22 with a scope. I still need a pistol. I really don’t enjoy shooting or hunting so I still have pretty much all the rounds and shells I’ve ever bought for the guns. I’ve fired off a few to calibrate the sights/scope and the get the feel of the guns.
I suppose I should look at a 30-06 rifle some day. I’m put off of those for the same reason I’m put off of getting a pistol: when I have the money, something more important comes up.
It is best to repent of your sins and accept Jesus as your personal Savior and Lord. That way you can leave all of your preparation supplies to those who are left behind.
Whatever you use, it needs to be a silenced firearm that uses subsonic rounds so you don’t attract more zombies. And given that it’s a zombie apocalypse I’m thinking you won’t need to worry about the Federal law that requires you to pay a $200 tax for your silencers.
I sold all my firearms to that guy at the gun show some time ago
What kind of weapon you need depends on what kind of Zombies you are dreaming about. I think I will choose the Bible just to be safe.
Glock
AR
Hi-Cap shottie
Kel-Tel P-32 for pocket carry.Glock 26 for inside the waist band or on a belt.
Remington 22lr rifle for getting dinner.
Ruger SP-101 .357 revolver on a belt for stopping power.
Ruger SR-556 AR-15 for killing zombies (very clean shooting due to piston-driven operating system).
UZI, FN-FAL, HK-91-A3, Galil 5.56, AR-15 w/.22 conversion kit, Browning Hi-Power, 9mm Glock, .22 Browning Buckmark, .22 Calico M-100, assortment of 12 Gauge shotguns
Then, if you are blessed by the Lord, one 81mm mortar, and Claymores.
Jmho.
5.56mm
That narrows it down to:
AR-15 (primary choice)
M-14/M1A (gotta love the heavy metal)
Remington 700 (it's a stretch, but it meets the above qualifications.)
I am aware that the AR is not as reliable as an AK, nor can you bury it in boiling radioactive mud under a monster truck rink for a year and then whip it out and have it work perfectly, as you can with an AK. But when an AK finally DOES break (and they do), or you run out of ammo, you won't find spares or reloads on the bodies of the "zombies", either.
I’ve got 2 out of 8. Best get cracking!
In that situation, anything that’s loaded that you know how to use will be just fine.
Shooting zombies is just target practice, you want the guns that will let you carry lots of light ammo and large magazines, with little recoil that lets you rapidly engage multiple targets while expending as little of your own energy as possible.
Lever action rifles take you off target and use your energy, shotguns do the same and the ammo is too bulky and the weapon capacity too small.
What you want is a simple bullet injector that can inject bullets quickly into lots of targets and for which you can carry lots of rounds for.
No, but one of these aught to hammer most any nail, in a pinch:
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.
