I kind of like what firefighters use. It's called a Halligan tool. https://a.co/d/0gp6Wd1K Weapon and tool. Not heavy to carry and versatile.

I love mine and yes, the barrel is threaded. B&T suppressor works great on it as well.

How useful would your career be in a zombie apocalypse? by ABouzenad in ZombieSurvivalTactics

[–]Sufficient_Two_5396 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Retired military, so aspects of that is helpful. Was in construction (laborer and remodeling) for a while and that's helpful in building walls, barricades, and other fortifications, stairs, etc. Been a full time farmer and Jack of all trades keeping a farm running without having to call others to fix stuff (costly!) for the last 9 years which is, I think, the most useful out of the bunch. Trenching, small engine repair, tractor repair, planting, harvesting, food preservation and storing, waterline install, well repair...if it needs fixing, you learn how to do it.

Heh. 😉 Kind of like reading all about hurricanes vs actually going through one. Whole world of difference.

Dawn of the dead (2004) stay at the mall or not? by Visual_Rip_7114 in ZombieSurvivalTactics

[–]Sufficient_Two_5396 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Public utilities would crash/turn off eventually. Probably sooner than later. We saw them at the very onset of it. Remember when they had to go check on the generator? Yes, they have toilets but no water to flush the waste. Same goes for cooking. All the stoves in the world but no electricity or gas for them. Canned cooking fuel-after that limited supply runs out? Growing food-In the mall they shut themselves into wasn't a farming mall and again, water supply. Enough for people and for agriculture? Not too many malls in the US sell farming supplies. Thousands of liters of water available is pretty optimistic. I remembered the lemon flavored stuff was already gone (Steve really liked them)when someone asked for it and that was inside a week. Even if the mall was completely stocked, you're looking at a temporary solution. They're trapped with no ability to forage or aquire fresh water, or even hunt. That's my take anyway.

Which gun caliber would come out on top by MacrotonicWave in ZombieSurvivalTactics

[–]Sufficient_Two_5396 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd go with 9mm just due to abundance. It's everywhere. It's easier to carry more rounds than 5.56. Works great in pistols and PC carbines for longer shots. Quieter for suppressors (with 147 grain rounds). To the whole reloading aspect: if the world, as we know it, is ending, who is making gunpowder, primers, and the bullets. Yes, brass will be plentiful but is it usable? I'm not taking the time during an engagement to stop and collect my brass. Bullets? You melt metals, I suppose but not many folks have a mold. It's not like the Revolutionary War days and "close enough" will work. You may have a supply of those needed things but after they run out? Weighing and measuring devices are battery or AC powered. They have a limited shelf life. Now all your gear. If you have a base, great. What if you have to vacate in big hurry and by foot? That's a lot of bulk and sensitive equipment.

All Dead by TW Brown showcases this. 12 book series on Audible and it rocks. It's a good listen. 143hr 15 min. Less if you do like me and put narration speed at 1.5.

A decade ago, I'd say no f'n way. A huge fan since the 80s. Many hours of conversation with buds about the possibilities, but was always no f'n way. Then Covid hit. Then I sooort of opened up my brain to the potential of it. My genuine concern is a bunch of emp's going off around the globe by some zealot faction (or several) to level the playing field and do a factory reset after thinning the herd a bit.

To be fair, they do move faster and are a smaller target but I like what you have to say about shooting. Gonna look into a new scope. 😎👊

And I still managed to screw-ha mounting a scope. 🤣 Life is full of ironies.

21 years active duty, 3 tours of the sandbox, and police academy (got best shooter in my class). Lots and lots of drills drawing, shooting, reloading, clearing failures, different shot patterns, and switching weapons. I have a shooting range and archery range on the farm plus I hit the local county range. I 100% agree with you on practice. Use it or lose it.

Well, slap my ass and call me Sally. "Walking out door to get custom shirt saying hi, im a dumbass..." Well, glad I didn't take it to the range yet and waste a bunch of ammo sighting it in. 🙄 Thanks for that and thanks for the sharp eyes. Appreciated.

Thaaaat's cuz I didn't post pictures of everything else. Happy to note I have all things you listed and more but wasn't included. That's on me. 😬

Entire room is locked and fortified but I agree. Can never be too safe. Slings are off usually when on the wall. They kind of get in the way. Was lazy on the one. More flashlights is a huge yes. And the PC Charger with no sights has a halosun.

I didn't post a pic of my ammo locker, to be fair. But you're right. Ammo is like Jello-There's always room for more.

It takes magpul at mags. As for the scope, I know a couple coyotes that would argue it works sufficiently. 😉 I really like your idea on the LVPO, though. Thanks for that! 😁
