Quiet counts when shooting zombies.

Exactly. Everyone knows a zombie is attracted to noise.

The Walking Dead is entertaining, but there are considerable gaps in
the plot. 3-4 year old gas just seems to happily run. And it took
forever for them to start using suppressed AR's. I'm not sure I've
ever seen a .22 on the show. A suppressed .22 would be a perfect
zombie eliminator.


Yeah, the gas thing usually makes me chuckle. Although, anecdotally,
I have seen gas weed-eaters that were not drained start after about 3
years. They did NOT run happily, though...

Your average .22 doesn't look impressive enough for a
post-apocalyptic
TV show... that's probably why we don't see them. If you look online,
though, you can see a lot of manufacturers that make a .22 in an AR-like
configuration. I've been tempted to buy one. Seems like it would be an
insanely fun (and cheap) plinker.


Absolutely. S&W M&P 15/22. Eats anything thrown at it, tons of fun,
can be made very quiet if that's your thing.


Ahh.. the key to surviving any apocalypse. A gun that doesn't care
what you feed it. That's what I like about my SR9.


The M&P 15-22 is a fine, fun rifle. I had one for about two years. A
silencer and subsonic ammo will fire quietly, as far as the ammo goes,
but the reciprocating parts of the rifle are noisy. I sold mine to buy a
bolt action CZ 455... *very quiet* with the silencer attached.
