The problem is, I live in Canada, where I have absoloutly no access whatsoever to a gun. I think that guns are a hindrance anyway since any type of intelligent zombie or desperate or insane survivor would hear your gunshot from far off, and know where you are. When your gun runs out of ammo, you would be stuck with a very ineffective melee weapon and you would have traveled half the distance you could have without the gun. Let me say that I also do not have access to conventional weapons like crowbars, and I have no idea where my dad keeps our machette. This is assuming I was alone, however, I do have 3 other family members at my house, so I would likely have survivor partners. If I were to try to survive, here is the list of things I could obtain from my house to survive.
- A melee weapon, some things I could obtain and use easily are: the handles of our shovel, various metal parts of our Bowflex, a knife, or maybe a woodcutting axe.
- First aid, as well as any medicine lying around the house, this could be the difference between life and death.
- Try to fit as many of the items from our disaster box into a backpack, food and water tablets would have first priority, followed by blankets and then other things.
- Our crank-up flashlight.
- Our Megaphone, to signal to other survivors.
- A book. As crazy as this may sound, it could keep me occupied and sane.
- Matches.
- Some books based around survival in the wilderness. Books like the Island Trilogy and My Side of the Mountain.
- My (non motor) scooter. I chose this over my bike because it is smaller and more compact, it might not be as big or as all-terrain-y as my bike, but it's smaller and lighter and could be used as a weapon.
That's all I can think of for now.
