"The first thing I'd actually be able to obtain is a sword. Its a real one at that, no recreation or fantasy piece, it was once used to kill people, its ancient, but still in good shape. I also have a bayonet, its not modern, the blade is too long, but once again its not a piece of crap. I also have some random folding blades and hunting knifes. I also have a Taurus 9mm compact pro. That is just about what I would have, I could rip apart some old football gear in the basement, but it would provide minimal protect, I have grown out of it even if I took it apart and re pieced it-it wouldn't add to much, and would take to long to do this anyway. Raiding a gun store is dumb, the owner won't just let you steal his guns, if he is kind he might throw you a gun you never know, but then others will also be trying the same, a large group of people attracts attention and leads to violence with in the peoples. By the time the masses are dead or go away, the store would be picked clean or fortified, once again going around people, especially their precious housing would be to dangerous to risk. Thus, I would forgo obtaining any other weapons besides what I have on hand, unless someone decides to be nice and throw me a rifle or shotgun."

"you should have a rifle, or a shotgun. Doesnt matter much, just something you could rely on and not have to worry about hitting the gun store.

smart call on the gun store issues btw"

"save the heroics for those those who feel the need to waste time and energy."

"I actually have access to 2 aks, a deagle, and katana. No assault shotguns though..."

"Here's a question: Where would you stay, hold out, survive? Be realistic!
A mall, school, home?

I'd go to my local High School, it is optimal for an outbreak. It has large steel doors, tempered windows, two stories, food, water, heat, concrete walls, and a survailence system. It can hold survivors, supplys and is a fortress when all locked up. Plus the military or poliece may already be there although probably not very usefull."
