Blast away with the shotty then pull the mag out of the front of your pants and finish the f***ers off.
Go for head shots. When your finished get Ralph to clean up the scene before the cops arrive.

Is Ace getting ready for the battle against the Mods? I'd pick the 12 gauge shottie.

No it's illegal to carry guns in the UK, but there is a thriving blackmarket for them.  Farmers are allowed to have them but they have to be under lock and key!

I'd go with the 12 gauge.  When I was married we had guns all over the house. When I was with my bf I wanted to get a 12 gauge for the house and he wouldnt let me. He said he has seen me when I get angry and thought it would be too dangerous. I have no idea what he is talking about, Im a nice girl.

I think a shotgun-magnum combination would be your best bet....

With the magnum one good headshot will ensure that you killed the f***ing zombie out right...

And although the shotgun is not as effective in killing zombies, you can use it as crowd control and slowing down approaching zombies.

Now that I think about it, for my handgun I would prefer something that has a clip and said clip can hold a sufficient amount of ammo. A magnum takes time to reload and only has a few shots.... When dealing with zombies firing and reload speeds are very important.

what ever happened to the doberman?  they were so common in the 80's and 90's (maybe because of Magnum PI?) nowadays you hear nothing of them.

I model my chest hair cleavage after Magnum PI, and to some extent Burt Reynolds.

You realise all such "home defence" is highly illegal in Canada?

Were you to maim or kill an intruder you would likely face significant jail time.

^^ not true.  self defense is most legal, so long as the weopan in question is properly registered.

What do you hunt? My x-father-in-law just killed an 8 point. Right now ppl are talking like no one will be able to hunt anymore this season due to the drout we are having. My son killed his first buck when he was 7 [^]

Your weapons must also be properly stored and cannot be loaded while in storage. Having a loaded shotgun under your bed is not legal and so killing an invader would obviously point to a breach of the law on your part.

But let's put it this way: if somebody enters your home and you proceed to blow a hole in his chest, you are going to have a difficult time proving your life was in danger and that you had time to unlock your gun cabinet, load the weapon and fire in a space of a few seconds. Given the Canadian legal system it is highly probable that you will, in fact, face criminal proceedings.
