In Which Case Would You Rather Have an AK-47?

Which jobs does an AK-47 do better?

I voted for everything:

With hunting it would be really fun:mrgreen:

Who would mess with you if you are walking down the street with an AK or have one at your house?

And if for some reason I'm shooting at cops, an AK would certainly penetrate body armor.

That doesn't mean squat. Merely because you are accurate at the range doesn't mean you'll be accurate with hordes of the undead coming to eat you alive.

On the contrary. A recent medical checkup revealed that I have icewater in my veins, am thoroughly salty, temp 88.6F so I am cool-headed, suffer from large amounts of ferrous metals in my spinal column, and that I have flint in one eye and ice in the other, granite in my jaw and rock in my ribs. :rofl

I've been known to call the .44magnum "that little popgun", and once gave Clint Eastwood a knuckle noogie.:cool:

So, I'd not only shoot the zombie hordes thru the eyesockets (you pick left or right) as they charge, but crack jokes about it between shots...:shoot

You could always use it as a coffee stir, shovel, boat paddle.

So many other inventive things an AK is useful for.

Just nothing actually useful. What's the point in having a tool if you have no legitimate use for it?

I reserve the right to send those squirrels on my pear tree flying in a dozen different directions, in small chunks!

I picked all of the above because I'm personally not a big fan of handguns, so I'd rather the rifle.

Personally, I'd use different guns for all of the options given.

I would prefer the handgun if I was robbing a liquor store or carjacking someone.

I'd prefer the AK if I was fending off a zombie invasion.

Why weren't these given as poll options?

An AK is horrible for a zombie invasion... for zombies, the best weapon is a single-shot rifle. Shooting on Auto just wastes bullets, since only head-shots matter, and Semi makes it really tempting to go rock-n-roll mode. The trick is consistant, steady head-shots.

AK47's available in the USA without a Class III license do not have full-auto or selective fire as an option, they are semi-auto.

Semi-auto means firing one shot at a time. "Rock-n-roll" is not an option.

Nor are they inaccurate at the ranges they are intended for.

Have you ever shot one? Doesn't sound like it.

I haven't actually, thanks for your input.

Yeah, we've already discussed this to death.

The best weapon is converting your hand into a chainsaw like Ash form Evil Dead.

Well if we're getting all crazy with the tech, a tank would come in quite handy. But who can really afford them in this economy?

Give me some power armor any day....

I'm married, which means I no longer have a legitimate use for my penis, but I'm not about to cut it off.

That's pretty sad if you think you have no legitimate use for it. I'm married, have been for 16 years, I use mine all the time.

My "Warning! Warning! Abandon joke! Abandon joke! Recipient taking it seriously!" alarm just went off. :2razz:

And how are you going to fuel it? Protoculture? I think NOT!

Well the Invid took all of their Flower of Life farms with them when they finally left earth, so Protoculture is out of the question.

However, Northern Gun's Glitter Boy and the Coalition’s Death's Head GB Killer (pictured above) both run on micro nuke cores.

The problem isn't affording the mech, it's affording the carbon off-sets for those cores. Al'Gore is negotiating an intergalactic Cap&Trade with the Invid now, offering IDF subsidies for every square mile of farm land the Invid do not use to grow the Flower of Life. One of several problems are the constant Zentraedi militant extremists who ambush legitimate efforts to create peace. Also, the Zentraedi's refusal to recognize earth a a sovereign planet has complicated the issue.

Arthur: Are all men from the future loud-mouthed braggarts? Ash: Nope. Just me baby... Just me.

Leave those poor sheep alone!
 
Naturally this is the best weapon to use against Zombie Hordes

RIFTS reference for the win! Awesome.

Exactly. I know I'm much more likely to fend off some Zombies than get into a shootout with cops.

One word: flamethrower. Never mind, a few words: flamethrower, molotovs, shotguns with phosphorus- or magnesium-filled shells. Hell, Greek fire and catapults and walls with boiling oil on top would work just fine.
