Scavanged by Baehr Manley

What!? All this time bringing you great products to survive the Z Apocalypse, and we’ve never talked about chainsaws?! Well that’s something we aim to remedy right now. It’s relatively well known that a good chainsaw is handy in a heavy, close-quarters zombie situation, so we’re not going to bother with the rest…we’re only bringing you the best. The Husqvarna 3120 XP is the meanest, biggest, most rugged bad boy you can swing when you’re seriously caught in a crowd of zeds.

Designed to pull chains on the longest bars Husqvarna has to offer, up to 6 feet! That’s plenty of clearing surface when you’ve got to mow down some serious reanimated corpses. I mean we’re talking limbs, heads, and even the toughest of torsos, plus you don’t have to worry about getting stuck in trees, poles or walls. The Smart Start, LowVib and other ergonomic features makes this heavy duty z killer easy to operate.

I suppose you could use it to clear trees too…

Alright maybe zombies won’t be intimidated by your mean looking Ka-Bar Becker TacTool, but it’s definitely mean looking enough to give you a boost of confidence when facing down a couple of shufflers and crawlers. This “utility tool” is a great piece of hardware to pack when you’re moving through rough terrain or even urban sprawls.

Great for prying, smashing, hammering, cutting, slicing/dicing, caveman grunting and posturing, and more. Doors, windows, 550 cord and undead skulls are no match for the Becker TacTool. You don’t want to find out the hard way that our utility tool of choice has some serious limitations when you’re on the move in Thriller country.


Springfield Arms XD(M) 9mm

Springfield Arms XD(M) 9mm

Scavanged by Baehr Manley

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.

TA648TRD-A: 6×48 Trijicon ACOG®

Scavanged by Baehr Manley

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.


TAC 15 Tactical Assault Crossbow

TAC 15 Tactical Assault Crossbow

Scavanged by Hudson Steele

Come Z-Day, you’re going to have to make some tough decisions about your inventory. When making a selection for your primary weapon, both the rifle and crossbow are great options. The rifle has great power, unequaled range, and potential for a decent payload. Unfortunately, you might as well be ringing a dinner bell in congested areas and once you’re out of ammo, it’s done. The Crossbow is silent, the bolts are re-useable, and allows for long distance kills without the need for gunpowder. This too has drawbacks as the reload time can be unbearable and the bolts take up precious space.

Luckily, the boys at PSE Archery has made sure that you don’t have to decide between to two. The TAC-15 is a crossbow that mounts onto a standard AR-15 lower receiver. It shoots at an amazing 412 fps so you know it’ll pack a punch. You don’t have to worry about being stuck in crossbow mode when things get tough because it’ll easily convert into the standard whenever you need.

With the TAC 15, you have the best of both worlds with minimal sacrifice. Rifle and scope pictured not included.


Cold Steel Indian War Club

It’s well know that the most effective way to kill a Zombie is with a hard, decisive blow to the cranium. That’s why a good, durable blunt weapon is an essential tool to have in your arsenal. Baseball bats and crowbars and great options, but they were originally designed for other purposes making their offensive properties fairly limited. The Indian War Club from Cold Steel was designed for one purpose; to bust skulls. This ball headed club is based on a popular war weapon of American Natives and has been battle tested for centuries. Cold Steels take on this weapon is made from Polypropylene, making it virtually indestructible. It also has a removable short steel spike in the ball for extra oomph. This weapon is perfect as a secondary weapon, ideal for close quarters and tight situations.


WASP Injection Knife

We have a saying here at Zprepared.com: Never bring a knife to a Zombie fight. If you absolutely have to, the WASP Injection Knife is definitely the blade to bring. Made from surgical stainless steel, this 11 1/4″ knife comes equipped with a handle that holds an up to 24g gas cartridge. With a push of a button, a burst of cold compressed air about the size of a basketball is ejected out of the blade. Originally designed for divers to use against sharks, this nifty weapon has the potential to be a decent back-up, back-up weapon. If your back’s against the wall, and all other options are spent, just drive this sucker into a Zeddy’s head and just push the button. Just make sure your eyes and mouth are closed.
