love the knife, all ive got is a baseball bat and the will to kill myself before becoming one of them if bitten (assuming i can)

edit, i get the feeling that, that knife and handgun would be the most useful things in the world in a zombie apocalypse lol the rifle seems like it would be heavier and more of a nuisance to carry around, i'd rather get another pistol and some more ammo and then a lighter silenced rifle that is meant for mid-range shots

I have a car running in a closed garage.

Survive during a zombie apocalypse? Fuck that.

My garage contains many tools with which to improvise zombie slaying.

All I've got is an umbrella and a swiss army knife. The ordinary U.K citizens are so screwed.

guns arent the best idea, since you dont have infinite ammo and really if you attract a horde of them...chances are you will run out of ammo and have no way to keep them at bay, stealth is better for the most part (though guns would be rather useful)

After reading Highschool of the Dead, I've been obsessed about Zombie Apocalypses. One thing to have in handy is FM-999, aka Field Manual-999 that details how people should function as a team during zombie apocalypses. Wouldn't your Tac Tool have to close of a range to be effective? I mean, if they're in arms reach, your probably going to get infected anyways unless they'res only like 2 of them. And isn't the Nagant bolt-action? Wouldn't it have a slow rate of fire? Nice bayonet though.I still like the gun though, and your set up is way better then mine.

You guys are not getting into it, you need some cardboard body armor as well as goggles/eye protection to prevent infection perhaps a cupboard door shield and of course baseball bat, maybe try some mace (the spray) and then you have to look up on the internet how to make some bombs with a trigger mechanism all from home made materials. Definitely need rope not only for climbing (zombies can't climb thus perfect way to escape their reach) but also for tripping them in corridors to make them easy targets (might try fishing line to in case they can see and avoid thick rope). Chair legs (wooden) might also be a good thing to bring (in a backpack/gym bag obviously) to stab/set up piked walls.

And most importantly without a doubt, duct tape.

edit: I like the sock full of change idea as well as stealth idea (during the night at least) only problem with stealth, what if they can smell (yea the undead still can use their noses obviously).

the tac tool is meant for general useability, such as breaking open doors and skinning hunted deer/rabbits stuff like that

Yes it is bolt action however you can still shoot it fairly quick. The XDm could keep them at bay until I reload after the 5 shots. The Tac Tool would be a last resort but also could be used for ninja like zombie raids without alerting other zombies with the use of guns.

A realistic idea, where biting is an absolutely horrible way of spreading. You have to get close to a person, and as soon as you are infected you show signs of the disease. People will run away because biting is not something you want a regular person to do. Even if they are juiced up, they will often not run faster then most humans, and infect only a few people, even at a crowded place such as a rock concert. Stampedes would kill more then the virus. Then the CDC kills all the infected and burns their body while containing the outbreak to a small area.

If this does happen, I plan on waiting a few days while the zombies all die of thirst and hunger. Water is needed to get energy from food, and they can only go without water in their cells without them turning into a dryed up prune and fall over, dead. Within a day or two, considering the zombies fail to get water, they will be weak of dehydration, and have little energy.

Or a pen and a keyboard. Which even if I am able to score a successful strike, blood will most likely get into an orifice and infect myself. Of course, locking the door and barricading the windows with furniture on the ground would probably be best, as only one to two zombies will come in at once, and they would not be able to get through to me.

Sorry for being a bit of a buzzkill.
