FNP 90 and 5-7 are both legal in America, provided one has the proper permits, which say if you have more than a parking ticket you cant own one.

Buy your own ammo, or better yet make it.

.22 isn't reliable at range.

And .22 isn't more reliable. I've shot both. And the short 7mm of the FNP90 is much more reliable at mid-range shooting. Which truly is the range which you will find yourself engaged in.


Again, not legal in most countries.
How do you know you'll be at home or able to get home when Z day comes? What if you run out? You won't have enough supplies to make ammo forever.
You don't need range. Beyond 50m range would be handy but not necessary. The main advantage is the likelyhood of finding ammo.
The second advantage is the lack of weight to the ammunition.
I wouldn't bother with a large caliber if I could run around with 10 times as much .22 ammo at the same weight.


It isn't a large calibre. its smaller than a 9mm lol. And 50m is the bread and butter of a tank crewman's personal defense gun, which the FNP90 was originally created for.

Secondly, my entire plan is ruined if i cant get home. But my truck'll get me home.

The "likelyhood of finding ammo" is meaningless, and yes i can make ammo forever. Such a small round as the FNP90 and 5-7 doesn't use much lead or brass. You can use your .22, and chance a miss at longer than 150 yards. I'll hold my FNP90, and rock the s**t out of 'em when they get close. 17 rounds per second is enough to buy me enough time to get away. Plus Im incredibly accurate with.

And i have my AUG should long-range be necessary. I'm prepared.

Whoa, you actually plan on MAKING your own bullets from scrap? You'd have to pick up ALL your old brass that you used, while avoiding the zombies you were using it on, and you'd have to make your own smokeless powder, and cast your own bullets. Even if you COULD do all that, that's too much work to do while trying to survive. I'd rather nab a box of 550 .22 rounds from Wal-Mart. And so what if it's not reliable at a range? If the zombie's more than about 100 yards away, I plan on running anyway.
It's a large caliber when compared to the .22 "smallbore". Only the .22 and .17 are common smallbore rounds. Anything else is "large bore".
Of course, I have had many misfires with .22s, moreso than with any other round. The hammer goes down and it just goes click, because the primer was badly packed inside the round, but on a bolt rifle, it's easy enough to clear.

Equipment I have:

-Father's military vest: pouches and pockets, small first-aid kit, holster, holding clips.

-Steel bat: primary weapon

-Bamboo Staff: Not very sturdy, but somewhat useful

-Display Knife: Very strong but short, I'd have to sharpen it. biggrin

-Large Kitchen knives: Really big ones for cutting a chicken in half, about three of those.

-Sports gear: Knee and elbow pads, thick black helmet with padding

I'm no Master Chief, but I think I would be able to take on three zombies at the same time, at most.


You'd get infected through blood splatter or cuts that you sustain.
Firearms are the best choice.

But I plan on buying a MACH IV Kevlar helmet when I turn 18, Ripstop ACU, Blackhawk S.T.R.I.K.E. Kevlar vest, and a gas mask of some sort.

If you're buying kevlar 'cause you plan to get shot, that's one thing, but if you're doing it to prevent zombie bites, you're pissing your money down a hole. Seriously, leather is worlds better than kevlar at stopping sharp objects. Kevlar is made to stop high-speed penetration. Knives and teeth will go through it like it's any other fabric.
I must say though, BDUs are the most comfortable pants I've ever worn. I wear almost nothing else these days.

It doesn't seem too hard.

Since I am not of age to drive a car, I would have to be traveling with someone. Let's make that someone my parents. There's three of us. We could easily make a triangle around the siphon, after it's constructed, and keep back any zombies. We wouldn't be surrounded and would probably be able to quickly undo the syphon and jesus christ get in the car.

Now that I think about it, my grandparents have a very nice, sleek van-car... thing (I don't know the proper term for it) which can be started from outside the car via the keyring buttons. They live rather close (a one-minute drive away from my house) so it would be good to get them in as well. That makes five.


Sorry to sound like a complete b*****d but - grandparents?

Now, lets see, artheritis, medecation requirements, senile, easily scared, walk with cane! - yup, the PERFECT survivors in a zombie apocalipse!

Sorry, dickweed - not these grandparents.
My grandfather, a former hunter and military man, and his wife, my (step)grandma sail a goddamn boat together. They're both completely lucid, they have little medical requirements, and if they did, it'd be some minor pills, they have never needed to walk with a cane, and I bet they could kick your a**.
:D Thank you, come again!

You think it won't stop a bite? Especially with plate inserts?
Do you think there won't be other people wanting to shoot me?
And no, it's a lot harder to cut through than any other fabric.
And leather gets peirced by anything, it was shitty in the middle ages.

Ying in the case of an outbreak it really depends on the number of zombies. In a small class 1 or 2 outbreak a house or a similair structure can be used to hold them off untill our loveable government will finally do something to kill them all and call it an avian flu outbreak. Whereas in a class 3 or 4 you must plan for the long haul. I have been researching and found an incredible plan. Oil Rig in the ocean! Its beauty is in its simplicity. It is made to pull energy sources out of the ocean so you essentially have unlimited power. The ocean is full of fish just waiting to be caught. And the best part is that most oil rigs come with a distillery to turn salt water into clean water! That is a better plan.



You do know that Rig's have to be moved though right?
If there is a large storm for instance. So to prevent it from tipping over.

biggrin Dragon skin biggrin

Human teeth aren't exactly sharp, I've been jumped on and bitten before,
While wearing my leather coat. At least thats for me, All I'm saying is that
leather would probably protect somewhat, but not against bullets,
or blades....
If we are talking about future boogiemonster, about you getting kevlar and the like when you're eighteen, well there is a different story.
I'm going to college to study medicine, and I plan to become a researcher. I plan to get gun licenses and buy many firearms, and I would check up on the possibility of the dead rising. I would have full tactical gear, and many weapons, including special weapons, such as acid.
If I were to become a doctor, I would not be the lame kind that creates the zombie virus and then gets killed by one. Think along the lines of Wesker, from the RE games.

But I can get the S.T.R.I.K.E. vest fairly easy, it would be extremely hard to get my hands on Dragonskin.

I know, but i probably wouldn't be close enough to have to worry about getting bitten unless I'm being suicidal.

I plan on having a small group (4-5) of freinds who know their way around an AR-15, Suzuki ATVs, shooting gloves, and the above list.
If I wanted I could run down to Cabela's and get half of the things on that list, the rest I could just run down to a gun show for.

I agree. Leather is a better material than your average cotton shirt, but is better fitted for scrapes, like riding a motorbike. Human teeth aren't very sharp, unless we're talking about Christian Bale xd , but some zombies teeth get sharper when they transform, right?
A full kevlar suit I have not seen, vests I have. Dragon Skin is very strong. Hey, maybe even sheet metal would work. It wouldn't be too heavy, and having it in the right places would help. The bad thing is, zombies like biting people's necks, which doesn't have lots of armor options.

I plan on being in the ROTC and studying forensics.
I live in Texas so getting my gun license wouldn't be too difficult for me.
Except for the acid thing sounds like me.

Some Kevlar vests come with removable neck protection.
I know I keep referencing them, but in the RE games, acid is the most powerful grenade type. I probably won't have grenades, but maybe some small vial for emergencies would work.
And being strong enough to break their necks would help. I am not that strong.

I'd rather just keep in shape than wear any kind of vest. If you're careful, you'll never find yourself in a crowd of zombies (not that any armor would help you there,) so you'd just have to worry about keeping out of their grip.
I only have a .22 single shot long barrel. But i am a good enough shot to drop a zombie with every shot. I have friends with other guns, so i were to put together a group of 10 or so. i would be set. =]

Also, i like molatov cocktails(GHETTO GRENADE!)
