28 Days later are not actually 'zombies' by definition. They are not undead, rather they are much alive, but infected with a virus.
A Zombie, by definition, is undead. So, Romero movies is what we're discussing.

28 days later zombies do not require headshots to kill, because they are alive, they will die from vital organ shots, however, don't expect them to slow down until they literally drop dead from them.
Headshots are still best.

I see the Mossberg is gaining ground.

One thing to remember. Zombies win on Numbers, not strength or tactics.

Reloading a Mossberg to full will take the average person 20+ seconds, and then you only have less than 10 rounds until you reload again.

Reloading an AR takes < 5 seconds, and you have 30 rounds until you reload again.
In a simple numbers match, the AR wins, especially when you have 150 zombies walking at you.

Having 300 shells on you does you no good if you can't get them into the gun fast enough to shoot em.

Can't forget about the home defense pieces, the Mossy and the XD.


The real question is....do you attempt to fortify your location, or flee to a safer place.

Temporary Fortification at your residence is probably a good short-term policy.
Surviving the initial rush will be the hardest part. People will panic, attempt to flee, roads will clog, and it will be complete anarchy. Best to bunker down for a bit until it quiets down.
You can get a nice 'Hurricane' shelter that will survive you through the initial onslaught, but eventually, you will have to move to a more fortified location for the long term. Especially if the government decides to try to cut it's losses, and nuke your area. You definitely want to not be there if/when that happens.

There's a HUGE Survival bunker in Conroe, originally built to house a family during nuclear war, it is now an underground datacenter. It has above-ground turret locations, only accessable from inside the bunker. I would probably attempt to make my way there, and set up base there.

In the event of zombies, all area CHLForum members would be welcome to join me in this bunker. Bring Ammo.

Excellent Katanas for under $300. I even sent the guy an email about his recommendation on a blade for Z-day.
