Zombie Squad

My workplace is pretty nice in that everyone on the ground floor has a secure fire door in of our departments leading outside. The office people upstairs are screwed though. They only have the front and back stairs. A third door leads to the roof but that is connected to the back stairs. And they ha...

Rapid follow upshots in hunting are because you missed the first one. Don't miss the first shot and you don't have to worry about the recoil. As for felt recoil, I actually get bruised by my sons 20g Ithica featherweight shotgun after 20 rounds. Granted they were all 1oz sabot slugs out of a rifled ...

What's the weight of the PTR, MacAttack? Its a beast. Fully loaded its over 10lbs. Pretty close to my brothers M14. But it has almost nothing in recoil. Close to the AR in .223/5.56N in fact. The idea of turning cover into concealment is a tactical maneuver, not a hunting maneuver. If your trying t...

I too wanted a rifle with a bigger punch. Went with a battle proven platform. http://www.ptr91.com/products/PTR%20Classic%20Wood%20Legacy%20Model*?id=28 20rnd mags are still 5 to 10 bucks. Cheaper if bought in bulk. And I don't have to worry about what I put in it. It eats both .308 and 7,62N. And b...

And another thing... Whats up with the watchtower being outside the wall in the first place!? Really? You have to go outside of the wall to get into the watchtower? Which means it is hard to defend and can be taken over and used to snipe into the town? Just say'n :roll: Just noticing that? There is...

As for Deanna. Did anyone see her get bit? Did anyone see her die? She could just have a standard infection and just closed and barred the door on the walkers coming down the hall after giving them her war face. More than likely she is dead but the writers like to leave these things hanging like cha...

Whats the cause?

If its flowing lava hell yeah my butt is out of the area fast.

If its a cloud of poison gas they better look quick because all they will see will be my taillights.

If its an invading army my fanny is staying put.

Aliens from space "All hail or new overlords."

As for printing presses. Unless electrons stop working I will rig up a generator and turn my laptop and printer back on. Or even solar. All those knowledge PDF's I have been saving can now be printed out. If I run out of ink cartridges for this printer and can't find a way to reload them then I will...

post collapse my transport will have 4 legs!! :lol: :lol: I have thought about that. But caring for a horse is more than just brushing it and saddling it up. If its coming from an high oat diet it will take a few weeks if weaning to get it settled back on grass. Plus you need to know how to shoe an...

Luckily the Boat industry is way ahead of us. Uses a standard remote oil filter mounting head. http://www.westmarine.com/buy/racor--replacement-gas-filter-water-separators-for-mercury-mercruiser-engines--P000411462 For the PAW I would get two 55 gallon metal drums. One I would make a settling tank w...

During these slow reflective scenes I ask my Combat Engineer and SeaBee brethren, could tanglefoot and/or rows of concertina be an effective way to re-enforce a hasty wall like Alexandria? I am neither, but I guess it would be just like the British plan to take care of that stuff fast. the first gu...

M35a.

I'm not going far but I want to know I will get there. And it can hull as mall house.


Or better yet how about a DUKW(DUCK)? Why stop at that lake or river?

Just how far down the technological pole do you think humanity will fall? And why do you think we will fall that far without the rest of humanity stopping the fall just by going back to work? Long before the equipment falls apart from disuse someone will find away to start it up again. So before you...

Well I guess thats why L-3 lowered their orders from us.

Though if they lose the military market I bet the will try to keep running with a civilian line at a much much lower price.

And why were they left behind if everyone else was evacuated? Especially a high ranking politician. Rick: "What is this place?" Deanna: "This is the start of sustainability. That's what the brochures we found say. This was a planned community. With it's own solar grid, cisterns, eco-based sewage fi...

Well I guess it should have ended up pretty instead of functional. What kept the hundred thousand or so Z's away until they got the walls all put up? Gods will? Pure chance? Like the Maginot Line in France, walls only work if what you want to keep out can not go around them. Deanna: "Rick, northern...

Somebody knows how to weld, but IIRC the only person I think we've seen welding is Jessie with her sculpture. You think she put that wall together?? Or was it Spence and Reg Monroe? Rick: "You put up the wall?" Deanna: "Well, there was this huge shopping mall being built nearby. And my husband Reg ...

I think when he was first introduced to Rick it was said he worked for the state in the road department. Thats why he was able to find the equipment and materials because he knew of all the road projects in the area. But even he should have been able to do a better job. And whats with not already ha...

True that Stra8shooter, a hospital in a zombie SHTF is a no no. :) Have you every been in a hospital pharmacy? They are full of schedule II drugs-Narcotics; so they are built like fortresses-steel walls, steel doors, bullet resistant glass. Short of an artillery shell, isn't anyone coming in you do...

A few questions. I haven't read the comics to this point but how far is this new group from Alexandria? Are they aware of each other? Well I suppose Alexandria isn't aware of anything but what about this new group? Depending on their level of crazy they could be a bigger threat than the Wolves, see...

Even having a vehicle that only gets driven once a month or so is a little bit of a chore. Obviously the gasoline issue isn't a factor there, but keeping the battery topped off seems to be troublesome for me. I have a trailer brake controller installed with a factory harness, but 1 single LED indic...

The RPG is taught in foreign weapons courses on many bases. Likelihood, between Wash. and Atlanta? 100% Possible yes. Probable No. They have not even found any 40mm grenade launchers yet and those should be around in far greater numbers Pretty good episode. Why don't they ever take the HMMMV's? And...

I keep telling people that plane old gas will keep for quite a while. Well over two years and more often quite longer.


Imagine how long it would last if you had actually tried to store it for long term emergency use.

Keeping a battery viable that long should be the hardest part.

After hours of reserch and fiddling around with the thing i got it working. It never had a battery, but is ment to be started with jumper cables from an external one. I'm probably going to add a battery and a rectifier for charging it from the alternator, we'll se. For as often as you will be start...
