I think Sava's actually right about this one. The people who would do really well in a "post apocalyptic" scenario are those that are able to form large cooperative groups with collective security, not individual gun nuts running around in the woods half naked with an REI water filter in one hand and an SBR'd silenced AR-15 with an illegal full-auto mod and a $700 reflex sight in the other.

In loinburger's hypothetical guns vs. bows argument though, guns win out handily because as a practical matter a .22 rifle can kill all small to medium game if you aim for the head, and you can buy that stuff in 500 round boxes for $30-40 (used to be more like $20 but then sandy hook happened). So you could buy a lifetime supply of hunting ammo for your .22 for a pretty reasonable sum and never worry about running out.Comment

That's if you're living in a cabin in the woods or whatever. I was assuming that you'd have to fight off zombies / mutants / aliens / cannibals / etc (e.g. The Road or Lucifer's Hammer or Road Warrior), in which case you'll run through ammo more quickly than if you were just using the gun to hunt.Originally posted by regexcellent View Post<p style="font-size:1024px">HTML is disabled in signatures </p>Comment

depends how good a shot you areOriginally posted by loinburger View PostTo us, it is the BEAST.Comment

Doesn't matter how good of a shot you are - if you're a perfect shot and you kill a squirrel with one bullet and you kill a cannibal with another bullet then you've still used twice as many bullets as you would had you not had to kill the cannibal. And if post-apocalyptic fiction is any indication, there are going to be a lot of cannibals (or mutants or zombies etc). (You could try to save ammunition by eating the cannibal, but that's just asking to catch kuru or hepatitis or whatever; this may not even be an option with a mutant and is almost certainly not an option with a zombie)<p style="font-size:1024px">HTML is disabled in signatures </p>Comment
