I won't take possession for another couple weeks, as it will be shipped to Utah and held for me. But it's all confirmed, I'll be getting it for a gret price given the current market (ie, less than regular price prior to the election).

What would you use such a thing for?


/puts on silly hat.

What do all American's need automatic rifles for? To protect themselves. Or just randomly shoot each other as is the more likely case.

/takes off silly hat.

Feud likes his guns, and collects them. I mightn't like the prevalent gun culture in the US (or the inherent hypocricy of a religious person with guns) but under US law it's his right and his choice.

Nice to see you got a good deal on it though Feud.

Fair enough. I'd like to fire a P90.

What need have I for Darwinia, Defcon, or Multiwinia? Besides, the zombie hordes aren't going to shoot themselves.

By the way Rkiver, it's not an automatic, those cost way too much. You've got to get all sorts of special licensing and permission from the Feds to get them. But it is indeed a good deal!

QFT

Whatsmore, an automatic rifle is much more useful than a shotgun in the inevitable eventuality of the zombie apocalypse - less fiddly reloading (so there's no brain munching whilst you're readying more shells) and greater accuracy over distance (you don't want to be waiting for them to get close before you start de-braining them)...
Whoever you vote for, the government wins.

Well, not shooting, but yesterday I did watch two zombies fighting to the death. It was awesome!

Mind you, we did shoot the winner.

That's a bald face lie. Zombie apocalypse is not only always an excuse, it's the best excuse.

If you go by Romero's then yes. If you go via Left 4 Dead, no. But are you willing to risk it? I know I wouldn't be.

What are you talking about? Jesus is a zombie! He died, then returned from the dead... He is not going to be protecting you -- Zombie Sniper Jesus is going to be shooting at you!

Plus, humans need rest, zombies don't. Do you really want an undead train following you, catching up every time you sleep?

I wonder? can zombies swim? if not, then arguably oil drilling platforms might be some of the safest places on the earth when the zombies come.
Unless they make a bridge out of the corpses, but that would take a long time.
