1. Tell me when you get an AK-47, or even a mock-up, at 15 years old. Unless your dad has one, it's going to be hard to get a hold of one.

2. Nobody is John Woo, no need for two handguns. And "9mm handgun" is very generic.

3. What is a 12 guage magnum?

-

I will personally just grab my dad's S&W 12 guage, and the Browning .22.

You need to be more realistic. While it would be awesome to have a slew of black rifles at our fingertips, it just aint happening. Ask your dad about his guns, if he has any. Maybe ask if you could go to the range a few times with them.

And just asking, are you saying you want an AK-47 because you like the feel, stopping power, etc, or because Max Brooks says so?

(not putting you down)

Don't plan on it. If you go looting for weapons, these are some general chances of what will happen:

70% chance: Find that the store has been licked clean.
15% chance: Find that the store has been barricaded.
14.999% chance: Find a weapon, but not the one you intended.
0.001% chance: Find exactly what you were looking for.

Congratulations son, you're going to be in line with all the other people who's going to raid the gun store!
Enjoy your raiding and watch out for the owner, he might be very angry when people try to steal his guns :)

Interesting, to say the least.
What make and model is the kalash?

What are the magazine capacities and operating systems of said nine mil sidearms and twelve "gadge" magnum, I'm presuming, shotgun?

How is a blade both a survival knife and a khurki at the same time?

What makes me the most sad is that if aliens ever visit our planet and study the human race, we will all be lumped together into the same category.

*Sigh* Time to go find another English teacher and whoop his ass.

Please stay away from any of my posts. I wouldn't want any of your "stoopid" to rub off on me.

Aliens will never visit our planet.

The reason is that, because they are obviously much more intelligent than us, they'll just monitor our internet (see ; facebook or another community) and see that the human race is just a waste of time, and leave again.

OnT ; I feel that my weapon(s) of choice would be the worst, either a frying pan, hockey stick or a baseball bat.
But that'll mean I can either make myself some food once im in safety, or play some baseball or hockey right? ^^

"well likely guns would be scartered everywere because there would be abandoned cars with gus in them"
And you dont think that the owners of the (abandoned) cars would bring their guns with them?

You assume everything would be a best case scenario, dont do that.
Assume no guns will lie around, get a gun yourself instead, train with said weapon and be prepared.

A gun wont do you any good if you just find it (and possibly broken) and go ahead and shoot with it, hitting something as small as the head is fairly hard for someone with experience in the weapon, just imagine if you're a beginner...

Also, who knows what gun they might bring? Do you know about every weapon there is around? Would you know how to repair it, should it break?
Would you know what ammunition that is suitable for said weapon?

Unless you know those things, a gun will only be as good as it's from scratch and with the ammunition loaded inside, once you've shot all your rounds and you dont know what ammunition it uses, it's nothing more than a cumbersome club.

Don't rely on stuff just lying around to be picked, that is a sureway to get yourself killed.

So, I would guess you got said AK47, two 9mm handpistols, a "12 gadge" magnum (whatever that weapon is) and a kukri (that's also a survival knife), or are you planning on finding these weapons on the run?

No, the thread is about what you *wish* your weapons would be.

But most of us here aren't in fuzzy little playtime pretend-land. We are a bit more pragmatic than that.
