That zombie special on the History Channel?
For a zombie weapon, they recommend shotguns... ~sigh~
They say the M4geries are 'good, too' but the ammo may be hard to find...
?!
How many places have you gone to that had shotgun ammo but not .223? Sure, Bass Pro has a LOT more 12 gauge in stacks, but 90% of that is clay busting ammo and not ideal for Zed heads. And even non-gunnies know to look in the abandoned National Guard vehicles for. 223 ammo.
At least they tip their hat to the ARs. Probably the most ideal zombie gun/round out there.

You never select a shotgun as your primary anti-zombie firearm. It's great for onesy twosey, but zombies travel in hordes. The reload time is onerous, and the ammo, while effective, is heavy and bulky.

Pfff, birdshot on Zombies. Dick Cheney made a headshot on a lawyer with birdshot and the guy was in a press conference talking about how unfortunate that was THAT week! He might not have spent the night in a hospital, I don't remember. Still. If the VP was going after zombies with birdshot how many more hits to the head would he have had to make?!

No, no, no! Headshots are all that are effective on zombies, and .22 LRs from a rifle are effective on the human head, thus, would be effective on zombie heads. Since they're small, large numbers are easy to carry. And that whole noise thing? .22 rifles are pretty quiet.
Ok, I'll admit, the weapons segment of the show was a serious case of 'wtf'? Aside from the 5.56/.12ga thing, he also said 9mm might be hard for civilians to find unless they lived near a military base.
Oh, and did you notice how in the title of that segment they list the 'm41a' rifle? That's gotta be a typo. Unless, you know, the military is adopting the gun from Aliens(which would be awesome).
Ok, aside from the guns segment, what did you think of the show?
