in my case, i would choose a shotgun, because i enjoy the look and feel of a shotgun, and i would like to beat a zombie with the hardwood stock, everyone allways says that a rifle is so much better, but is a rifle REALLY better? shotguns can be just as acurate with a proper barel, and if your not a complete ass you can hit a zombie if its closeup, and its big enough of a boom to alert your friends for a while around, even if it alerts zombies, the only problems i could see is heavy huge ammo and the clip size, 6 is enough, but why have 6-10 when you can use 30? well, i guess the AA-12 solved that, but if you rock and roll with a 12 gauge, your going to be hurting or out of ammo in a jiff, and even with the (25 round barrel drum?) why do that when you can have a 75 shot barrel cip for an ak?

Small bag filled with shotgun shells. FIX'D.

Small bag filled with rifle rounds. FIX'D.

The only bad thing would be the extra weight.

I have two rifles and a shotgun. Personally, I prefer the rifle. I dont care what shell your using or the type of barrel you have on it, a rifle will always be able to shoot farther with far more accuracy. Im not saying shotguns are a bad idea, quite the contrary. I believe shotguns can really shine. If i was to breach a room or clear out a place to scavange for surplies I would pick a shotgun hands down. In those conditions they will outpreform a rifle in the right hands. For general survival and versatility, a good rifle is hard to beat. Id rather take a skinjob down at 200+ yards with a .300 Mag than at 20 feet with 12 gauge loaded with 00 buckshot.
