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.

I have a Ruger Mark III with a threaded barrel. Not many rounds through it, but so far it appears to be a good zombie gun as well. The Burris Fastfire 3 on it is sweet!

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. :)

But slow. A zombie will bite you while cycling the bolt. And 5 rounds won't stop a zombie crew. :)

They made a very capable suppressed 10/22 (pre 1986). You can keep the
lead flying with one of those.
I doubt there are any transferrable select fire M&P 15-22s

I suppose enough wire ties will hold a bayonet on just about anything.

I guess my M1A qualifies and I imagine I can also mount a rifle
grenade launcher but I have never actually seen one.
If we wanted to send explosives down range on the ship, we would use
our 5" gun.
Out to about 17,000 yards, with the right projectile, it will take out
every zombie in about a 25 meter radius, wound a bunch more a tad
farther out

The MP 15/22 can keep some lead in the air, and as we all know, semi is more accurate than full-auto. And is less wasteful of ammo in the post-apocalypse. They ain't making more! :)

Once you figure out the counter-intuitive way the Mark III's go back
together after a full strip-down, they're great pistols. Again, though,
with a silencer, the rounds go off quietly but the firearm's
reciprocating noises are substantial.
