Yeah. I got chubby fingers and hate that darn take-down switch. Everything else is great. Never jams with good ammo and pretty accurate for a stubby bitch. You'll have that thing up someone's right nostril before they can blink.

Sorry, I left for a bit....
I'm glad you were able to intervene and stop the madness in your neighbor's yard. I suppose in a country where guns are legal, to have one evens the score.
Well, maybe we can continue this conversation another time and have some UK dudes chip in if only to get a counter-perspective.
Good night, y'all

It's not a beautiful weapon...but it doesn't have to be.
Weapons require care and cleaning. Those wonderful Austrian bastards at Glock recognize this,..and the fact that most guys are lazy , dirty lumps of human flesh. I would bet that you can go your whole life without actually cleaning this weapon (tool)...and it would still fire accurately in a crucial moment.
They don't make pretty hand guns...but pretty only looks good on a wall.

Black Powder weapons are not registered, because the ATF doen't consider Black Powder to be firearms:shrug.

Used to be able to pick up Russian SKSs at gun shows all the time and bring them right home. Cheap and fun to modify.

If I could afford to do much more in the hobby, I'd probably try to lay my hands on a lever action carbine chambered for .41 magnum which would go well with my Ruger Bisley SA.:geek:

You're not too far off though, except that if you're talking about the snubnose revolver that Dick Tracy used to carry, that's actually a .38 as opposed to the .380 which is usually thought of as an automatic pistol. Both are essentially the same caliber, but the cartridges are different. What's the deal with the zombie killing anyway? How do you kill something that's already dead?:dancing::geek:

I think post-apocalyptic scenarios are really neat. I've always been a big fan of zombie movies for that reason.
For the snub nose I was thinking about something more like this one.
http://thatwasjunk.com/wp-content/up...Movie-Film.jpg
Is that a .38? Sorry, I am a Canadian gun noob.
Something small but a lot of stopping power in case you don't get a head shot right away.
Most zombies I would take care of with this.

The large frame revolver is used so there is more mass for the physical forces to move when the piece is fired. It also helps keep the parts from loosening quite so rapidly when the gun is used a lot. The trouble with any snub nose is that the short barrel limits accurate range and unless you are an expert with the weapon, you'll need to be nearly close enough to your target that it may be more effective to hit him with the gun instead of shooting at him. :geek:

Check out Youtube. Some people have made them. Some gunsmiths if they do special requests may make one as well. I've always wanted one. It could be made with a short barrel AR with a master key attachment with a housing over the rifle.

It is surely because you get a better performance from these cars at a lower speed. The quintessence of the argument remains that guns are designed to kill - nothing else, cars, kitchen knives etc have that primary purpose. Yes guns should be controlled. the magic bullet though is how to get all the guns that are out there - especially among the criminal fraternity - back. That's rather like getting the genii back into the bottle. But the sort of hugely aggressive remarks made earlier by some posters here - way beyond the mildness of the arguments I'd been offering - is what worries me. Match that level of aggression with a hot temper and a hand gun and you get dead people instead of black eyes.
Anyway i really am not going to post here any more. I recognise that nothing i say will change the minds of anyone here and nor will you change mine - unless you corner me with a gun.
had to reply just for kicks..... ever drive a 5-speed porche 944? SUCKS in urban populations. I drove one thinking I was gonna be hot shit behind the wheel, until I had to try shifting AND fighting the god-awful manual steering at the same time. No thanks! so no, they don't necessarily perform better at low speeds than "lesser" cars. all they are for is status and show, and racing in certain areas.
And in case you are still reading this thread, I fully understand and respect your argument--guns were designed to kill. No question whatsoever. But to me it doesn't mean they are bad. its all in the person who holds it. Yes, they make it much easier to exact personal rage than a bat, or a knife, or a car, but nonetheless it all comes down to the fact that its the person, and not the object, that is the ultimate cause. I havent' read any of this post since the page with the quote from above, so I hope this reply isn't too far out of context at this point..... lol

Congrats on your new AR. :cheers:
How are gun shows run in New York State? I don't know how much ammo I have but it's about six feet high. Bunch of .223, 7.62x39mm, 12 Gauge(Buckshot & Slugs), .45 ACP, .44 Mag, .40 S&W, .357 Mag, .38 Special. I'm prepared for Zombie War, Civil War, Holy War, Race War... anything. I'll run out of bullets when I run out of weed. Never.

Dino if I were you mate I would hold onto that stash as the way the world ecconomy is going the scrap value alone of brass & lead is rising you may be sitting on a small fortune. Alternatively you could sell it to our guys in Afghanistan as their budgets and supplies are continually being cut.

I bought it all to prepare for war during our last batch of riots in LA. Had Sniper's Nest on the roof of my house next to the beer cooler waiting to see the whites of their eyes. I'll be OK. People come to my house to hide in. If I die many others will before me. Enough of them and I'd be perfectly happy to drag them down into the pit with me to stay forever.

I was planning to look you up Dino next time I'm in LA, I like the sound of that sitting on your high tower next to the beer cooler, sounds like a perfect set up. Have you got a laser site though for getting those zombies in the dark?
I have rattled of quite a good selection of hardware during my trips to Vegas, Florida, Argentina, Alaska, & South Africa. Its a bit of a travelling hobby of mine. In the UK have to settle with 12 gauge shotgun.

My house is on top of the hill, the very top. Tactical advantage all day long fortified with Spanish architecture customized by Russian paranoia, drug addiction, and intense hatred. Watch where you step. Don't trust anything. Nothing is harmless as I can make a deathly weapon out of a crusty turd if I'm high enough. Come take Castle Dracula...

Nice choice. I love the AR platform. You got to show some pics of your collection.
I usually have at least 1000 rounds on hand at any given time.
Check http://the-armory.com/ and http://www.ammunitiontogo.com/index.php They have some good prices on bulk ammo. Stay away from steel case as it's not as reliable, accurate or clean like brass.

1000 rounds per gun minimum but when Z-day comes you will want to be mobile so a nice backpack/rucksack and a few C-mags will be a must.Remember this is America you will be able to find ammo on the dead bodies and in home searches.

Cheers. Maybe it's a bit overkill for what I'm looking for.
In the novel World War Z they just had a small caliber pistol-rifle thing.
Perhaps this would be more appropriate for slow moving zombies.
http://www.americanrifleman.org/Webc..._22Charger.jpg
That and the SKS and the ability to outrun the slow moving zombies would have me covered pretty much. Dealing with the survivors of a post-apocalyptic world would be one of the hardest parts IMHO.
