Well this is kinda interesting. Firstly I have many weapons up in my room, in my bed, and a few under my bed as well. ATM I don't have any shotgun shells in my room, so my 12 gauge would be of no avail, I've got a full 50 .22 Magnum and 5 in my 2 clips. I'm out of .357 sigs save for the 9 in my gun. I've got about 22 .357 Magnums witch is probably going to be my weapon of choice, but with such limited ammo I'll not make it far relying on it. I have a few shitty replica swords that are almost useless, but I have a few that are fully functional. Mostly I have to think I would be using my handmade 11 pound hunk of iron vaguely in the shape of a sword. The blade would dull badly, and might bend some, but it would not break. One hit from that will break bones and crush skulls, however there Isn't any room here to swing it. I'd have to clear some out first with small arms fire and a smaller sword that can be used in closed quarters. I have one that is ideal for that sort of situation, one I've named Bonehacker. It's a full tang Chinese barbarian sword, that I have been able to decapitate a dear with in one swing. I doubt I'll have that sort of effectiveness with it in such close quarters, but it would at least let me stand my ground. I also have a few large hunting knives in my room, as well a few tools.
Carrying this mess is going to be impossible however. I have more weapons than I have hands, and even if I tried to carry them all there comes a point when you can't use the weapons you have because you are over burdened. So, assuming zombies come bursting threw my door, I grab a knife and my Sig, and hold em off for a few seconds before grabbing my 11 pound sword to try and drive them back threw the doorway, so that I can escape threw the window. However I would hear them coming up the stairs, and even entering the house so I would have some time to prepare. It would also take them a little bit to tear my door down. So my ideal load out would include my .357 Magnum winchester rifle, strapped to my left leg. It would cut down mobility but it is my weapon of choice. also at my hips I would have my .357 sig and my .22 Magnum. I can hang my barbarian sword from a belt loop and it will be easy to grab. My hunting knives, and a backpack I keep in my room, as well as all my ammo and 2 hand axes I keep in my room. Most my swords are to big to take along, so I'd leave em. Various pocket tools I keep around with me. And a flashlight. I'd be extremely weighted down with gear, so running zombies would catch me, but shuffling ones wouldn't get me so easily.
For a plan of escape I have 2. If the zombies are few in number and I can clear the area of them, I'll go gather up all the weapons in the house as well as some food items and load them into the pickup, and then head to a piece of property my family owns. There is a water source, animals to shoot kill and eat, wood for construction. Plan is to live there until the zombie madness blows over. Plan B if there are to many zombies to kill, then I'm going to have to travel lighter, and try to sneak away. Fewer weapons, and a lot less ammo, but every zombie that chased me I would have to kill. Zombies don't get tired you know and it's just a matter of time before they catch you. I'd head east along the creek. The water isn't the cleanest, but in a pinch it would work. Just keep along it, till i hit the lake, then keep going east to my property in the middle of nowhere. This obviously is desperate, but if I can't fight my way threw them, my only hope is to lose them in the forest behind my house. If there is no escape, then I will make a stand in my house for as long as possible. Try to get to my ammo boxes, and collect the weapons around the house.
If they attack when I'm asleep well I keep my .22 under my pillow and a few swords in my bed as well as my .357 Magnum. So I drop a few with my .22, then grab my Magnum and drop a few more before resorting to old Bonehacker. From there it becomes my standard plan. If I can survive that first wave I try to escape based on what seems best. Success or failure really just depends on the fine details. Tho well prepared it would be easy to get killed thinking I had a moment to reload, when I really did not. Trying to fight my way threw, eventually I would grow tired and get overwhelmed even with swords, axes, and hammers.
The real question is after the zombies kill me, and I become a zombie, would I still wield all my guns and knives, or would I drop them and just try to gnaw your legs off with my teeth?
