I'm happy with my AR-10. Its a little heavier than AR-15's I've shot,

I believe you can put a .308 upper on an AR-15 lower. Please correct
me if I'm wrong.

The .308 magazine won't fit into a standard AR15 magazine well. There are custom ones. For the standard lower, the .300 Blackout or 7.62x39 is the way to go.


AR-10 parts aren't quite as interchangeable in general as most
AR-15's. I'll admit that is somewhat of a drawback. However, if the
"deer" turn on us, I'd feel better with a .308.

If the zombies ever come, an AR-15 would be more than enough.
Of course, I would not want to waste the power of an AR on a zombie
unless I had to. A good shot with a .22 hollow point should be just as
effective in dropping them from mid-range. A lot quieter, too.

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.
