I’m not here to make your decision of which side to take in the great “revolver vs semi-auto” debate, but I do want to make sure you have plenty of options when making up your mind. Enter the Smith & Wesson M&P R8, an 8-shot revolver bought to you by one of the premier revolver manufacturers. Yes I’ll make sure you hear that right, the R8 model 327 fires eight (8) .357 magnum rounds. In the zombie infested world of zTomorrow, you need a reliable rugged, easy-to-use firearm if you’re not an expert in all things boom. Revolvers have fewer moving parts, and rely a lot less on oils and lubricants, meaning if you’ve got poor firearm cleaning habits, the revolver will most likely perform when the zeds bash the barriers down at the worst possible time. The above image shows an optional configuration, normally the optics and light are not included…but c’mon, look at that beast! shell out the extra scratch to make your sidearm feel like it’s your go to weapon of choice.

There’s two ways to get the name “Doctor” in for the Zombie Apocalypse: The first being an actual doctor with an actual degree, the second is being a Master Surgeon with complete mastery of the Scalpel. When I say Master Surgeon, I mean a dead-shot with any rifle from Surgeon Rifles and when I say Scalpel, I mean their custom Tactical Rifle that bears that name.
Surgeon Rifles carries a wide range of fully customizable, long range rifles for those who’s idea of fun doesn’t include getting up close an personal with the Undead. Just find some high ground, stock up some extra Ammo and pick ‘em off one by one.

Yup, that’s a real AR15 and machete behind that glass, and yes, this is a real product. The guys over at In Case Of Zombies, who sell displays with replica firearms and blades, have finally come to their senses decided to sell the real deal. For a mere $4500 you can purchase the AR15 Premium Zombie Defense Box, complete with your own AR15 (LMT Defender Standard Model 16 with a standard flattop upper receiver, military carrier group and SOPMD buttstock assembly), 2 extra Mags, Machete, and Survival Guide all encased behind glass in case of a Zombie attack. Available December 17th 2009, this handsome display is perfect for serious Zombie Survivalists.
They also offer a cheaper kit with a Glock 20 with 3 mags for those medium budget ballers.

A good carbine is something any zombie survivalist would love to have slung to their shoulder when clearing a location, or moving though the tight urban ruins. Most carbines are chambered in the 5.56mm NATO round (the classic bullet used by the M-16), but in recent times many have felt in a carbine with the shortened barrel, the 5.56 doesn’t have the punch that it usually has when fired from a longer 24 inch barrel. Enter the 6.8mm Special Purpose Cartridge (SPC), delivering 44% more energy than a 5.56 NATO when fired from the same barrel length (16 inches), the six-eight gives you the power you need to put rounds through zombie skulls, even if you have to get through the wall in front of you first. The Bushmaster 6.8 SPC rifle uses a slightly modified magazine and upper receiver to allow you to fire the 6.8 SPC from a familiar weapon system (the M4/AR-15 framework), reducing your learning curve when the z’s pile up at your door. the Bushmaster 6.8 SPC has a 16 inch M4 profile barrel allowing you to move through cramped areas and still bring your weapon into play. Plus the 6.8mm gives you more power than the 5.56 NATO, but is still far more controllable than the 7.62mm fired from heavier rifles.

We’ve helped you stock your weapons cache with all kinds of rifles and long arms as well as a couple of pistols, but you should also think about packing an effective sub machine gun out in the zombie playgrounds as well. The KRISS Super V Vector SBR/SO should fill that role nicely, we think. Most of our favorite SMGs fire the ever popular 9mm, but you want the option to bring the thunder without spoiling your aim while unleashing the full auto fury. The Vector fires the manly (not Manley) .45 ACP, but the Super V system reduces felt recoil by 60% as well as reducing muzzle climb by a whopping 95%. Yes, that means you can put the slugs right where you need them, even when firing full auto at 1000 rounds per minute. Take that, Zed!

After Z-Day you’re probably going to have your rifle with you 100% of the time; and if you don’t, you’re doing something wrong. Since it’s going to be your most obvious accessory, make sure the rifle you choose is solid, reliable and suits your sense of style.
The Browning BAR Safari is arguably on of the sweetest looking hunting rifles available. The glossy walnut stock with the Blued Steel finish create the appearance of high quality while the rest of the gun follows suite. Gas-operated autoloader, multi-lug rotary bolt, detachable box magazine for quick reloading all make this big game rifle a mean, Zombie killing machine. It weighs in at about 7 or 8 lbs., depending on your choice of Caliber.
Scope not included.

I know the Glock 21 is reliable in pretty much any situation, but the .45ACP isn’t everyone’s best caliber to use when you’re going for Zombie kill of the week. Some just feel more comfortable with the 9mm in a life or death situation. Sure the big daddy .45 will put larger holes in decaying skulls, making sure there’s less gray matter left in the brain pan, but you’ve got to hit your target first.
Springfield Arms is brings a serious competitor for anyone serious about making sure your rounds find the mark. Their XD(M) pistol in 9mm does a great job of putting the holes right where you want them. I had the pleasure of firing one of these and even I was able to put an entire magazine into the face of my life-like simulated target at ~20 feet.

In a fight for your life against an Undead horde every second, and bullet, could spell life or Undeath. Reloading in the middle of battling a heavy swarm could spell disaster for you, and your survival buddies.
For those who hate the idea of needing to reload you pistol every 15 or so rounds, Calico Weapons Systems have the perfect gun for you. The Calico M-110 Pistol holds 100 rounds using it’s patented Helical Feed system, or the equivalent of 10 clips full from the Sig. It fires compact .22 bullets so there’s you can pack plenty of extra rounds, but if you’re ever in a situation against the Undead where 100 rounds is not enough, you’re pretty screwed anyway.
They also make a 9mm variation for those who feel the need for a little more kick.

In an industry dominated by men, it’s hard for a gal to find a handgun that not only stops Zombies in their tracks, but also complements their Zsurvival gear. Us ladies need a durable and accurate firearm that not only defends us from the hordes, but also suits our feminine sensibilities.
The Mosquito Pink from Sig Sauer is the ideal choice for fashion conscious Zsurvivalist. It’s a Sig, so you know it fires “The first time, every time”. It uses compact .22LR rounds for high accuracy with a small amount of kick. The 10 Round Mag capacity keeps you from having to reload as often as it’s larger caliber cousins. Forget diamonds, this pink beauty is definitely a girls best friend.

Removing the head, or destroying the brain. The only sure fire way to put a zombie down for good. Yeah, yeah, zombies are slow, and don’t really understand that the rifle you’re aiming for their dome is going to end their shuffle to the buffet line, but that doesn’t mean you have the luxury of waiting for them to up close and personal. With large waves, you’ve got to hit them on your first shot, and you’ve got to do it from as far out as possible. The Trijicon ACOG® is your rifle’s new best friend. With 6x magnification, the ACOG® incorporates Trijicon’s Bindon Aiming Concept™ (BAC) – a revolutionary both-eyes-open method of aiming. It’s even got a bullet drop compensator with additional aim points for estimated trajectory of the 5.56mm round. Meaning you can pair this puppy up with your Sig556 and get maximum potential out of every round you fire during your undead crowd control shift.
