    A rather pricey folding knife I use for fishing and a hefty leather wrapped shillelagh. The cast iron teapot will do in a pinch as well.

    My pillow :p

    Are you ready for the greatest pillow fight ever? ... I know I am! :D

    This gun:



    .22 ammo is the most abundant.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,015 ✭✭✭Vote 4 Pedro


    I've got my Ruger 10/22 and loads of ammo so i'm sorted.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,316 ✭✭✭gavmcg92


    It's funny how people have misread the OP. It says that the item to the left of you when you are writing the thread is what you would have to use to fight off zombies on V-day.
    Reading through this thread and seeing pictures of huge rifles making an appearance only intrigues me more as to what people leave beside their computers! :D

    That's not a huge rifle. That's a .22.:D

    It's a very light weight semi-automatic weapon that is among the most common in the United States. Since Ireland only allows gun owners to own .22 weapons, the most abundant stock of cartridge in Ireland for a rifle is obviously going to .22 (unless there is more imported 7.62mm X 39mm ammo in undiscovered IRA bunkers that we don't know about!) I chose it because .22 ammunition is the most abundant, is very light, and easy to carry and easy to store in large quantities.
    It's an easy weapon to shoot accurately with very low recoil.

    If you are hold in a building with legions of zombies surrounding you it is ideal for picking them off with head shots. No fuss.

    If we are going to stay alive for the longest time possible, this beauty is just the thing - efficient, easy to use, no fussy maintenance etc.

    and you have a .22 rifle right beside your computer? So you're telling me that the first thing to the left of your keyboard is a .22 rifle? :D:D
    When I wrote mine, I was in bed with my laptop thus my weapon was my pillow! :P

    The OP says ... the item to the left of your computer is the weapon that you must use to fight zombies with. I would be very surprised if you had a .22 rifle lying on your desk beside your computer/laptop :P

    Have ye never watched the documentary Shaun of the Dead, a cricket bat clearly is the most effective weapon against zombies :)

    Although since this is Ireland substitute a cricket bat for a hurl and sliothar


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,015 ✭✭✭Vote 4 Pedro


    Yer, not many cricket bats here, a good heavy baseball bat would do the job.

    I do! Some of us are serious about the coming zombie apocalypse. I carry my rifle everywhere dissembled in a long brown paper bag if you must know!:D

    A hurley will break too easy.

    Setanta was able to kill the hound of Culann with a sliothar down the throat. I doubt if even Lar Corbett can do that!

    Remember there would be more than 1 zombie around on Z-day! :D

    This is where a ball-boy would come in handy :p

    Pardon? Might want to do a bit more research on that.

    I was thinking the same... I know of a friend who has a gun licence and owns a glock.

    As well as being wrong about only allowed .22 rifle.
    The 22 isn't a great choice as its not very powerful. Not really suited to hunting anything much bigger than rabbits.

    if there was a zombie rabbit infestation then you'd want a 22.
    For actual zombies, you'd need something bigger. Like a fox rifle

    The object to your left is now your weapon is the upcoming zombie apocalypse. What is your weapon? How screwed are you?

    With that in mind I'd probably like to hark back to my old CS days and take on a Benelli M3 Super 90

    Missed the point


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,316 ✭✭✭gavmcg92


    For my original post I was in bed and my weapon was my pillow... now I'm in college and the item to my left is a calculator.

    Hmmmm ... The choices! :p

    I think I'm going to stick by you when the zombies attack. I don't think my pillow would have the same effect as you hammer/axe hybrid! :D
