Surviving the zombie apocalypse is equal parts preparation and tenacity, but it also doesn't hurt to have an arsenal of firearms specifically chosen for their ability to render the undead incapable of munching on your brains. Here are the top 5 pistols, rifles, and shotguns you need in your stash for the zombie apocalypse.
For our list, we're presuming that the outbreak led to the collapse of the government as well as all industry. This means civillians are living without rule of law and must make do with existing firearms, ammunition, etc. Consequently, the best guns for the zombie apocalypse must be easy to maintain with replacement parts and ammo readily available across the country.
This 12GA pump action shotgun is simple yet effective, and the pistol grip makes it ideal for taking down zombies at close range. Loaded with 00 buckshot, the 590 Cruiser offers the perfect balance of firepower and mobility - plus shot shells are incredibly common in virtually any locale.
For a lightweight yet versatile pistol, it's tough to beat an MP5K (or a high-quality clone). Light recoil and high capacity make for an incredibly efficient firearm that will put rounds on target all day long, perfect for managing those pesky swarms of undead.
The primary benefit of the P320 is modularity and as one of the most popular 9mm pistols on the market, there are plenty of parts and accessories floating around. Plus, the X Five Legion model is equipped with a threaded barrel so you can easily mount a suppressor to avoid alering any nearby hoards.
Renowned as one of the most reliable handguns in the world, the USP9 Tactical is built like a tank and can run flawlessly even under adverse conditions. It has a threaded barrel and the DA / SA trigger offers second strike capability, which is useful should you encounter a light primer strike while being chased by zombies.
A quality AR-platform rifle like the DDM4 is perhaps the best choice of long gun for the zombie apocalypse simply because of parts and ammo availability. This rifle can also be built out for a wide range of applications, from RECCE to defending the homestead against encroaching undead.
What works for us may not work for you. That's why each member of the Classic Firearms team assembled their picks for the best pistol, rifle, and shotgun you can use in the zombie apocalypse. Watch our video to discover which guns made their respective lists.
