Designed by Tiger McKee and manufactured by Red Jacket Firearms, the Shootrite Katana is a beautifully minimal carbine, perfect for zombie apocalypse survivors often finding themselves in tight stuffy areas. Coming in a just over 5 pounds and sporting a carbon fiber handguard with 16 inch barrel, the Shootrite Katana maneuvers and performs very well in a variety of ranges. Even after a long day, this lightweight doesn’t fatigue you, or slow you down when you need to jump into battle with the heavyweights.

Its all too easy to forget the proper protection for your legs when you’re browsing your wardrobe collection, so the Icon Victory Denim Riding Jeans can help you put a stylish outfit together that also keeps your mobility intact when moving through shady, zombie filled zones. A denim chasis and Aramid® reinforced knees and hips help prevent any damage from “land mines” laying around waiting for a bite if you happen to stumble into the wrong patch of tall grass or debris. Not to mention, it doesn’t interfere with your style at all. It especially if you’ve got a nice stylish leather jacket as part of your protective gear.

Laserlyte Pistol Bayonet

The idea of putting a bayonet on your pistol may seem like a joke, but no one will be laughing when a zombie gets too close for comfort, the moment you fire your last round in the magazine. The Laserlyte Pistol Bayonet is a worthy CQC fallback when the slide locks back in the middle of the action. Sporting a razor sharp Ka-Bar blade that can easily punch its way through an undead eye socket, you can still fend off an attacker long enough to slap a fresh magazine into your favorite rail-equipped pistol. You never have to worry about having to switch between bullets and blades again! The clear answer is obviously bring both.

Baehr Manley — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 12:15:21 +0000

For decades, the Mini-14 design has been a solid, reliable firearm in many situations. The Ruger Mini-14 Tactical Rifle continues that tradition, bringing a new player to the game. Firing the ever-abundant 5.56 NATO (.223 caliber), its overall short length, and short barrel gives any survivor some serious firepower in a variety of zombie filled encounters. Great for many ranges, and very rugged and reliable, The Mini-14 is a great choice to sling across your back out in the wild.

Ka-Bar Zombie Killer Knives

Baehr Manley — Sat, 25 Jun 2011 03:14:26 +0000

Whoa! We’re fans of the SPAZ Combat mindset of carrying a good combat knife for battling the undead, so when we saw Ka-Bar Zombie Killer Knives, it was love at first sight. Ka-Bar makes some of the best fighting knives, and putting their expertise into the fray against the living dead just makes sense. Personally, I’m eyeing that Ka-Bar ZK-Death Dagger, but I suppose it’s also a good idea to pack something like the Ka-Bar ZK-Acheron Skeleton Knife as well…Just in case.

Wichester Model 1892 Carbine

Baehr Manley — Tue, 21 Jun 2011 12:12:01 +0000

A nice little touch of classic firearms “fashion”, Winchester is bringing its Model 1892 Carbine back for zombie hunting gun historians who really have an appreciate for such a reliable rifle. Available in a variety of calibers, so you can pick the one that fits your ammo stores the best. Also, fans of the classic True Grit (The John Wayne version), also have the option to rush a group of shamblers head-on, wielding this thing akimbo-style with a Colt Single-Action in the other fist, like the Duke.

Sig Sauer SIG50

Baehr Manley — Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:12:55 +0000

Sometimes it’s nice to have the ability to bring a zombie down from as far away as possible. The typical rifle generally gives you great range, allowing you to completely remove the sound and smell from the undead shambling hordes as you clear the path through the safety of your scope. Sig Sauer has introduced a new toy for you to play with… The SIG50 Tactical Rifle puts the legendary .50 caliber round into your hands, with a rifle made for serious shooters. Designed with input from former military snipers, the SIG50 is a durable, accurate tactical rifle that delivers robust down range energy. The sheer destructive power of this round will allow you to cut swaths into walls of zombies stumbling toward your position.

Cold Steel Hand-and-a-Half Sword

Baehr Manley — Mon, 13 Jun 2011 12:07:15 +0000

Many self-professed zombie survival experts seem to agree that a sword is one of the better weapons to keep on your person when dealing with the undead in hand to hand combat. However, too many of them discount the effectiveness of classic European sword designs. A ZPrepared favorite, Cold Steel has once again caught our eye with the Hand and a Half Sword (also know as a Bastard sword), a highly effective and versatile old school design that has reigned supreme on many a battlefield. This design allows you to easily use one or two hands, and can remove a zombies head and limbs in a single swipe. Plus the point still allows you to effectively stab, utilizing the full length of the weapon. Yeah the Katana is still a cool weapon, but great swords are easily found all over the world.

TakeDown Recurve Bow

Baehr Manley — Thu, 02 Jun 2011 12:25:57 +0000

Ranged weapons are an invaluable tool to have in the fight against the undead, and the ability to bring a zombie down quietly from longer ranges is a life saver. The recurve bow is a classic design that has been used on battlefields for centuries, so its quite proven to be effective. The TakeDown Recurve from Bear Archery brings the classic design into the modern day. Much lighter and less cumbersome than a compound bow, the TakeDown can be packed easily, and it “shoots like a dream”. For all you southpaws out there, this is also available for left-handed shooters (since we’re the best shots, it makes sense, right?).
