And you need to arm yourself. Choose your weapon.

Yes, I consulted the Zombie Survival Guide before deciding. Trench knife, designed for fighting in close quarters, with the idea of being able to stab downward through a helmet (or zombie skull). Silenced gun to avoid alerting nearby zombies. I chose an mp5 because it's probably good for a balance of close range and medium range. I'm no expert, but here I'm thinking I want something with better range than a pistol, but small and easy to handle. Single shot fire mode would be best for accurate headshots. there may be a better option than an mp5 (does it even have a single shot firing mode?)
Or this:

All I need is KX's leg.

I've always been a dual pistols guy.

I picked rifle, most likely a .22 caliber. The MP5 would be a great choice if you could A) find one and B) had the .22LR conversion kit. Need to use an extremely common ammo type, something you'll find everywhere.
Though a rifle isn't as nice indoors, so a backup pistol would also be carried. Same caliber.
A shotgun would be nice if you are going to be near or going to be entering a city and expect large crowds. Otherwise its a little overkill, and you better have someone else with you to cover you while you reload. Those things dont hold many rounds.
-
Doesn't an mp5 use standard 9mm ammo? Though I guess .22 bullets are much more common.
-
I'm don't actually know what it uses, to be honest. In the case of a zombie apocalypse I'd probably be unable to get my hands on one anyway.
-
Yes, it uses 9mm. But I seriously question how much ammunition is going to be lying around in convenient spots during an apocalypse. Your best bet is going to be a gun shop / retailer that sells ammunition. And they usually have a wide variety.

If you ever played Dead Rising, you know the power of the lawn mower.

Also, I was thinking more of what would be the ideal weapon, not what I could actually find. If we're talking what is accessible, I've got a couple .22 rifles and ammo in the next room already. A few higher caliber rifles too, but I don't think there's any ammo for them.

Or if you've seen Dead Alive (AKA Braindead), directed by Peter Jackson.

I'd have a kukri for up-close encounters, something like this:

For long range a rifle would be nice but I like retrievable ammo so a bow or crossbow would work for me (plus there's the added bonus of impaling zombie heads):

And I imagine MyD would use something like this:

Honestly all you need to kill zombies is a sharp object, and a fence.

Or a sucker with a sharp object willing to build a fence while the rest of the team runs to a sustainable location.
I mean----yes. You are correct. WELCOME ABOARD.

Practically speaking, I think the minigun would be the ultimate utility in a zombie apocalypse:

So, we got our heavy gunner (Pug), pointmen (W7RE & Ghandi), Akimbo gunman (Shock), snipers (GPW & Idol), lawnmower-man (Que), stabber (Pyro), and long-range stabber (Me).. Where's the pyro? MyD, you like setting zombies on fire, right? And medic, we need a medic!
