You did miss it but that's ok. Not the first time we've had to merge into this thread. Most likely won't be the last.

I didn't see one on here, but I may have missed it. If this is a dupe, mods/admin, feel free to nuke.

ITT we post pictures of our Z-day arsenals. Firearms, melee weapons, ugly mugs, whatever! If it's yours and you would use it as a weapon to defend yourself against the hordes of undead, lets see it!

Here are some of mine.

This is a MK18 MOD 0 Clone Build. All LMT. Good for tight spaces. (Yes, it's an SBR and yes, I have a tax stamp for it.)



This is my SASS Build, on an Armalite AR10. It's a 7.62 NATO and kicks ass to 600m.



This a group photo of my favorites, duplicate weapon systems weren't included.



There are the two pictured above plus a Polish AK Underfolder, A Mossberg 500 12 Gauge, an AR-7 Takedown .22, a Springfield 1911 (My Daily Carry Piece), and a Ruger LCP .380 my BUG/Pocket Carry gun, but my wife usually carries it.

jelly! if it weren't for the NFA i could get me a SBR, but as is i can't afford it and i don't want the feds knowing what i own anyway.

Nice collection.

Me too. SBR, suppressor, & full-auto. I don't want to pay the government for the tax stamps and I'm not crazy about the idea that they'd know what I own either.

In a perfect world the only gun law would be the 2nd amendment but it is what it is. I'm not worried about big brother watching, its really not a big deal. The stamps are also only $200 and are a one time fee. I have several. Th worst part of it all is the 6-7 month wait. I'm waiting on a suppressor now.

Is full-auto $200 also, I was thinking it was more. Anyway, that would be more of a spray & pray toy than a real weapon.

I have a buddy that sells suppressors that I've helped at several gun shows. Like you said, the paperwork is no big deal, just a long wait and $200. Besides, I'm not sure what I'd want suppressed, a .22, a .223, or a .45. They're becoming pretty popular now and I've heard there's a push to change suppressors to something like an AOW class so the fee would only be $5. If they did that, I'd certainly jump on it. Kinda interesting that in some European countries require suppressors for hunting, but here in the US they are considered evil devices.

As for a SBR, for everyday use I don't really see the need for one. If there's a SHTF situation, laws can be thrown out the window and a quick conversion gets me ready to roll.

The NRA is pushing to get suppressors removed from NFA all together. Its a safety thing. Cars require mufflers, we should be able to protect our hearing. The cost of full auto comes in the limited number of machine guns available for transfer. An M16 will run you about $20k and then there is the cost to feed it.

I like my SBRs because they're handy, light, and you can slap a suppressor on and the overall lenghth is still that of a 16" bbl rifle or less.

The most fun suppressors are the. 22 because they are the only ones that are actually "movie" quiet. I am waiting onnon that will fit both my 7.62 and 5.56 rifles.

Car muffler, suppressor, same basic idea. I think Michael Baine summed it up pretty good on an episode of "Shooting Gallery". "What would happen if you took the muffler off your car and put it on your gun? Your car would be too loud and your gun would be too quiet."
.22s would be the most fun and cheaper suppressor cost too but it would be good to have a suppressed larger caliber pistol by the bed for self-defense. That way I wouldn't blow out my ears while blowing away a bad guy.

That's the way to go, getting one for your 7.62 that will work on your 5.56. Getting a quick detach model and replacing the flash hider on both rifles, I'm assuming.
If I decide to get one for my pistols, I'll probably get a Silencerco Osprey for a .45. Then get adapters so I can use it on a .40 & 9mm. About $70 (I think) per adapter vs about $1000 for each suppressor.

An alternate for SBR is a bullpup rifle. Short but doesn't require tax stamp.

Osprey is a great choice. I don't like bullpups because of the shitty triggers they all have. Mag changes on them suck too especially when you're geared up. Aside from that I am partial to the AR platform.

Ahhh the old Car Muffler vs Suppressor argument huh?

[HaveCrowBarWillTravel]

Well folks, there's a new handgun coming out... well, it's out already really. Next challenger to the Glock and it's called the Caracal. Its selling like hotcakes right now. Keep an eye out for it. I'd have one, but my wife keeps tearing up our only car. LOL.
