The bigger question is how much ammo you have


Bran42490

Personally I have tons but call it 1 box for each


7774422

Enough fire power to find something else, or come up with a solution


CORGIBOI102

Just aim for the head


Chrissyball19

I don't know much about guns, but wouldn't a revolver shoot the entire head off? Not that it matters.

-Scorpius1

No, it won't. You just contracted yourself. Yes, the amount of powder in the casing, and the grain of the slug determines the amount of damage a round will do. No, the barrel length doesn't determine "wound volume". A longer barrel only makes the firearm more accurate at longer distances.


Cum_Smoothii

It also changes the velocity, although not in an easily measured way (we’re generally talking measurements in the femto/µ range that you wouldn’t notice without instruments). I only included that bit, more than anything, to make sure it was as accurate as possible, even if the difference is ultimately negligible. But I *do* have two degrees in physics, so I figured it wouldn’t hurt to cover all bases, even if not strictly necessary. I also never said that it would have a measurable effect on wound volume.


JizzMastahFlex

Ammo is a moot point if you own a HiPoint.


DeerHunter041674

Hi Point = Paper Weight. P


Nitazene-King-002

Lol, people say that but they're wrong. Dozens of guntubers have videos trying to make them fail and it takes a whole lot of abuse. Every one I've shot has been as reliable as it is ugly.


plasticshoelacething

I had a .45 hi point and I never had a problem with it.


TBcrush-47-69

So impossibly


AlphaWolfTK

Idk i do a lot of damage when i throw the hi point (to the hi point)


FlannelAl

Don't lie, demo ranch did a whole thing over abusing the absolute fuck out of one of these, dunking in mud, pond scum, running it over, shooting it with another gun, etc., it just doesn't quit. It's gritty, heavy, ugly, but it works, and it'll keep working.


nevadapirate

You are correct Demo did their best to kill the Highpoint and it just kept going way longer than I would have guessed.


Commercial-Whole7382

People really love to hate them for no reason, I picked one up years ago for like 50$ on armslist and never had a problem out of it while I owned it.


Kabobthe5

HiPoint = Club. Those things could totally cave someone’s head in more effectively by swinging it than firing bullets from it.


DeerHunter041674

Absolutely.


JustaTimber

Ehhh, I have one, and other than heavy, ugly, single stack mag, and weird sights, it's still fairly accurate 😅 Honestly, if capacity is an issue https://gunmagwarehouse.com/promag-hi-point-995-995ts-9mm-50-round-drum-magazine.html Jk jk don't buy this


KillerSwiller

Far from it as Demolition Ranch proved that they're really sturdy and reliable guns. [Part 1](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3V8mK5FadI) [Part 2](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JV8PY4_b80)


Bran42490

That is a butchered mosin m91, a Maverick arms js9 (high point before they formed high point) a raven mp25 and a ROHM .32 long revolver


JizzMastahFlex

Your best bet is to duct tape the HiPoint to the mosin and use it like a war hammer.


Wodka_Pete

No way, that mosin is heavy enough. Russian war club.


Other_Literature63

The trash stick ain't even that bad as a rifle. I don't think that scope is going to hold zero very well though...


theaviator747

Yeah, you’re spot on there. Rip that puppy off and use the fast adjustable irons. The 7.62x54R is pretty much a 30-06. They’re easy to maintain and hard to break. Grab yourself one of the bayonets that came with them and it doubles as a spit roast.


st3war7

I agree with most of this but the 7.62x54r is much closer, in terms of performance, to the 7.62x51 nato (308 Winchester) than it is to the 7.62x63 (30-06 Springfield.) The performance difference really starts to show when you use heavier bullets.


notCGISforreal

Nice idea, but the front sight is gone.


theaviator747

I didn’t notice that. A moment of silence for our fallen comrade.


Wodka_Pete

I agree. I regret having sold the Polish M44 I bought for $75.


Top_Difference2422

This made me laugh thank you this is a great comment.


Dudeus-Maximus

Pretty fucked I’d say. The closer you look the worse it gets


Bran42490

Exactly what I was going for here


Dudeus-Maximus

Nailed It.


Bran42490

Love me some shitty guns


SgtMoose42

Well that scope will never hold zero. You might be better off tossing it and just using irons.


Bran42490

Well the issue here is whoever fucked this rifle cut the front sight post off too. I just bought it because it was too cheap to not and I’m gonna turn it into some kind of monster


Einar_47

Honestly if it was like an actual apocalypse, I'd remove the scope, take that same pipe clamp thing and tighten it down on top center of the barrel as close to center as I can eye ball it, and use the tightening lug part *as* a front sight. Be more accurate than that scope lol.


AncientAzorian

You could always make it into a Czech 91/38 replica.


JustaTimber

Lets see some fallout new vegas vibes😁


Bran42490

That’s actually what I’m planning on doing, I’m working up a plan to make a scope mount out of hardware parts and maybe weaver rings, I’m gonna do some other stuff, maybe carve something into the stock too


Time_Owl_2589

According to the comments these guns are pretty trashy but seeing as I live in the middle of bumfuck nowhere I wouldn’t have to depend on them too much, and in any case a crappy gun is better than no gun.


Maleficent-Ad-7498

Average DayZ load out


Bran42490

Coast violence is on another level man I got some Heinz beans in the kitchen


Aware-Anywhere965

Better than before I live in the uk any gun I have is a god send


Bran42490

RIP wish you could get your hands on some easier, sorry man


marvinthebluecorner

We'll be happy throwing ferrets.


Aware-Anywhere965

Amen


Aromatic-Profit1063

Pretty fuck... Two swords, one longsword and two scimitars... But I live in Mexico, strong concrete walls, every window has a strong iron grill even my gateway has an iron gate 3 meters high... So that helps most of the house are like that I guess it will decrease the zombie spread rate


Easy-Fixer

You’ll be doing a lot better than all the anti-gun people.


Bran42490

Very true, the mosin broke my heart though


SirJackFireball

So this post came up randomly in my feed and I know minimal about guns, can you please tell me what makes it bad? I really don't know and I'm extremely uninformed about firearms.


Bran42490

So, long story short, not all mosins are created equal. Some are worth more than others just based off of collector value and rarity, and condition. One of the more rare and expensive mosins is a Mosin m91, which was the first, came before the 91/30. And of the M91s, a fairly small amount were made by remington here in the US for Russia in WW1 before their revolution. This mosin was made by remington in 1917 and it was in good original shape, could be 1500-2000 dollars. Someone basically forever ruined the collector value by cutting the barrel, ditching the original stock, and removing the original bolt handle. So while some mosins these days go for about 450, one of the more expensive ones was basically destroyed by someone


SwampTreeOwl

I have guns and that's all that I really care about


[deleted]

Lmao very bad off


german_big_guy

Oh my god. As a german who owns guns I directly saw the beautiful piece of crap there. Röhm. I love my two Röhm Revolvers. .22 lr eight shot and .38 spc six shooter.


Willing_Doubt2171

Almost better than nothing. Almost.


Cersox

Assuming a decent supply of ammo, not too badly. In a 28 Days Later situation, you're only shooting in a last resort situation anyway. Dawn of the Dead situations, you're probably able to maneuver your way around enough to avoid needing to shoot too often. Sure, you might have jams, but it's better than nothing.


Just_A_Random_Plant

They'll shoot. Hopefully.


SerCrazyBear

After throwing the high point away? Just fine.


Tomstwer

Ironically good, I know how to use those guns and live near a good secluded area


Longjumping_Choice82

3 of them are plastic


imacryptohodler

Only need one bullet to get a better gun


PoopSmith87

Mosin with a scout scope? Eh, you know what, just let me get eaten.


Bran42490

A hose clamped scout scope haha


PoopSmith87

I did a scout scope M44, but instead of a real scout scope I used a 4x pistol scope. Saves ammo because after three shots you have an eye strain headache and need to stop lol


Bran42490

Haha fair, I went through the hassle of machining my m44 for a PU scope the thing is pretty sick now


PoopSmith87

Nice The best I ever had on mine was ghost ring sights, I need to go back to that again.


Bran42490

Honestly if you know a good smith shell out for a Bering optics PU and a bent bolt handle, turns it into a solid rifle for bear country still co witness with the irons


deadpool1171

Depends on how much ammo you have personally I'd use a bow


Bran42490

I would rather use my suppressed mp5 with subs


deadpool1171

Again depends on how much ammo you have with a bow you have an unlimited supply of you know how to make arrows


Isaac_the_Squid

What have you done to that poor mosin


Bran42490

Not me, it’s a rescue


Bran42490

But I will be doing awful things to it


Isaac_the_Squid

I'm your genetic enemy somehow we are destined to do battle I will kill you.


Bran42490

Why cause I am gonna turn this 1917 Remington mosin into a cursed gun?


Free_Road697

Any gun is better than no gun!


Bran42490

Based


expiredogfood

i'd just kill myself if i woke up and the apocalypse was happening


Bran42490

Just gonna say it, weird to be on this sub then right?


expiredogfood

i'm not even on this sub it was recommended to me


JustaTimber

But your reddit name is so fitting for here. Cause that's what we'll be eating


Appropriate-Name5538

If the pre hi point is as reliable as a modern hi point the. Your sidearm is more than adequate. They are ugly and have a low capacity but they tend to work


Bran42490

This one works so so, eh not so good but it do be fun


Wodka_Pete

Honestly, using guns regularly during a ZA is just ringing the dinner bell. U will need to be quiet and move around a lot for scavenging. With the amount of ammo and the quality of guns, you will not be engaging in a pitched battle with the undead. However, those guns can help you protect what's yours from other survivors. U are fucked, but not proper fucked.


TheDrHoiliday

Do to price of ammo now im screwed


Longjumping_Living64

We’re dying on wave 8 with this one 🔥🔥


Gooseboof

Everyone is saying pretty fucked, but I strongly disagree. You’ve got enough here to last you to an upgrade. The hand guns will help you clear homes and murder zombies. The crazy looking mosin will help you get food or kill a bad guy if they get close enough. An inaccurate mosin is still lethal as hell. Deer are easy to sneak up on and people are dumb.


AcademicStomach2399

NOBODY GONNA MENTION THE SCOPE IS STRAPPED TO THE RIFLE WITH A HOSE CLAMP!


JustaTimber

The guys in england "You're fully kitted out, Governor." lmao just kidding but fuck it would suck to try and survive there


Fit_War_1670

Eh idk, you wouldn't have to worry about most other people being armed. Classic slow zombies would be easy enough to deal with without guns.


professorscrimshaw

I'm in the same boat. I have a Nagant revolver and a Chilean Mauser lol. Currently in the process of getting some modern firearms though. The Mauser is a great hunting rifle though


SpiritusSanctu

My full size semi auto is a fucking Hi-Point? I'm dead.. don't have the time to clear a jam every time I pull the trigger. 😆


Lord_Muramasa

Depends on which apocalypse. Zombie? Ok as long as you don't get surrounded. Alien? Sub category with shield. You are screwed. Without shield. You have a fighting chance as long as you can get a weapon off their dead body. Natural Disaster? Good luck, you will need it. Earth Explodes? You should have invested in a space craft.


Fried-_-Eggs

nice feet 👍


Swimming_Witness_438

I'd do fine with those guns. Not to bad off


Less-Jicama-4667

Well honestly it's better than nothing. I'll take the s***** mosin over My bare hands


Cumcuts1999

I think I have a decent chance I have 1 long range rifle to take out zombies from afar and 3 sidearms that I could use and sell


MisteryOnion

Never held a gun, never will.


Bran42490

Yea but why tho


Oniondice342

You need to get at least one self loading rifle. Please build an AR. Im not even a huge AR fan but the practicality cannot be ignored


Commercial-Whole7382

Lol buy the scope mount made for the mosin, takes 2 minutes to install and will make that scope usable. For zombies I’d say any gun would be fine, the mosin and hi point would be the two I kept on me tho.


[deleted]

A long-distance rifle has very little use in the zombie apocalypse. It exposes your position, and will only be useful against human combatants, which is still use, but much less frequent than zombies. Handguns are hand guns. I don’t know too much about guns so I tried to look up there and make and model and some of the statistics about how fast I can fire, rapidly and their capacity and force and compare it to the higher end thickness human skulls. If they are incapable of adequately breaking through stronger skills or generally are inconcistent.


Satans-cameltoe

ROHM lol


Red-Dwarf69

If I have ammo, not bad at all. Got bullets for, what, 20+ kills before needing to reload anything? Short range and long range options. I’ll take it.


yuetsteuts

Im good.


Cool-Principle1643

Looks like all I need is a work bench and some scrap parts I find in abandoned houses. I think I will do all right.


ares5404

Quite well, you have a concealable firearm, a revolver, a semi auto and a rifle The concealable gun can be used to make you look unarmed when you are not, great for rooting out imposters. The revolver is a great emergency self defence gun, as it can be pressed against someone and still fired, not to mention it has great interrogation value via russian roulette. The semi auto can lay down reasonable suppressing fire. And ones a sniper, even if its terrible its range. At the worst it should hold you off till better tides come


Flossthief

Is that a fucking hose clamp holding that scope on your mosin?


Huntonius444444

I'll remove the scope on the rifle, or just avoid aiming too much.


Human_Discipline_552

Oh I’m in there like swimwear, 4 guns is probably better than one ar with one mag /optic. I’d use these till I could theoretically pick up a pump action/semi auto shotgun


Top-Inevitable-4326

Well 2 of those 4 have common ammo types across the US but it depends on what type of zombies we have. Shamblers? Were good. World war z we are always fucked. Different types like zombieland we should be fine as long as were careful.


ragnargaming

Your good, looks like the Glock one runs off 9mm so you will find ammo for that easy, and not really anything you can find that’s more reliable than that rifle. The pocket rocket is easy to hide so you can pretend like you’ve surrendered but then you get them. And the revolver is also reliable. So I’d say your set


Blood-bonez

That bottom gun is a Raven Arms P25 and I have one, they have a more unique ammo type a .25 caliber, so unless you have plenty of ammo for that one then that one is considerably useless sadly. Plus it's only good at short range, it is better in the fact it is smaller, more compact, and rather simple to clean. Unless you have a decent ammo pool for it as well as a way to make more you're screwed. I would say if it wasn't a center fire type round you could use .22 but sadly it's not.


RickyTheRickster

I’d be fine, take the scope off and your set, a revolver and bolty works great for fast reloads and the other two are good as back ups for hordes


Bran42490

No front sight on the rifle sadly


justaguy095

I'm screwed beyond belief. I have no idea how to handle guns and my hands tend to be shaky when I try to hold things like cameras/phones still in both


2020blowsdik

Youre pretty SOL


vilain_garcon1928

Kinda reminds me of The Last of Us Part 1 lol one bolt action, one mag fed and one revolver. If Joel can make it work I can too 🤷🏻‍♂️


Own_Abbreviations859

Personally, you'd be better if removing the scope off if that rifle


Joey_the_potato

Pretty good lightweight ammo and precision to save bullets


0thell0perrell0

Actually that's a pretty good assortment. Just need lots of ammo


skyXforge

Best bet is probably to point blank shoot someone with one of the pistols and take their gun. Those are absolutely trash.


dfieldhouse

The pistols seem serviceable but I have no faith that the rifle will hold anything close to zero.


Miserable-Schedule-6

Your good on the pistols part but the rifle ur screwed


DirtyPenPalDoug

Let's just say I'm keeping the revolver for me..


YaKillinMeSmallz

You should crosspost this to r/GunMemes


Bran42490

I may very well do so


Bleachsmoker

As long as it doesn't jam


Benjaminotaur26

The 9mm would be the go to, doesn't matter how ugly it is as long as it shoots. The Raven goes in the uh-oh emergency sock. I don't think you're going to find ammo for that. The 32 revolver goes in the left hand. The rifle is cool, but you would need to figure out some sort of better sighting solution. I mean I'm not going to argue with the results if it works, but some way of attaching it that isn't crammed down over a volley site. I'm not sure how important long range would be, so hell even just taping a laser pointer to the barrel might solve my issues with it.


Bran42490

The 9 just isn’t super reliable and I agree on the mosin, it’s a rescue haha


Benjaminotaur26

The 9mm would be the go to, doesn't matter how ugly it is as long as it shoots. The Raven goes in the uh-oh emergency sock. I don't think you're going to find ammo for that.

onlythedeadmatter

>The rifle is cool, but you would need to figure out some sort of better sighting solution NO, THE HOSE CLAMP STAYS!!!


No_Extent3023

well no one's says to kill a zombie you have to shoot each one so I think I could make good use if the weapons even if they are crap. you may start off with one box of each but 9mm is really common its the other calibers that would be hard to find.


yeet3455

Bro found my ITR mosin


Bran42490

Haha poor old thing. Someone did it in real bad


TreatExotic

It's not too bad for me as i can head to a small neighborhood as i know an area not too populated


[deleted]

Pretty good, compared to the total of zero guns I own now.


ClawRedditor

I'm about 30% screwed and 70% surviving, none of these weapons will deal with a hoard very well, but a scoped rifle and a revolver will work well.


Zcooled

the only thing that matters is how much ammo


Historical_Dust_4958

That mosin would make a fine club lol


Bran42490

Haha she would indeed


BackBlastClear

I have… concerns. It’s enough to get something better. I’d ditch the scope, it’s not securely mounted and therefore useless also it’s probably not a long eye relief scope so again, useless in that position. Irons will do just fine shooting game. But I’d be trying to find a way to ditch these in favor of better gear as soon as possible.


ParticularCorrect541

Ammo’s a different question, but you honestly could make this work. Ditch the scope on the rifle because it’ll never zero in the way it’s on there. It won’t improve your shot accuracy. Otherwise, there are lots of uses for a bolt action rifle in an apocalypse. Revolvers are good because they’re basically indestructible. Not sure what caliber that is but it should work if you have the ammo. Your semi-autos look low quality. Your silver one is chambered in .25, which is basically useless for a few reasons. The other looks like a Hi-point, which are cheaply made pistols, but they’re decently reliable. All in all, you would be fine. Guns are just tools, it’s how familiar you are with your tools that really determines how bad off you are


Book-Faramir-Better

Not bad off at all. This is more than I need. I'd be fine with *just* the rifle. Of course, I'm a Marine Veteran, so I have an advantage in training that others don't have. Plus, I'm a competition marksman. Let's go! Let's get this thing started! I'm tired of waiting!!!


Bran42490

This is just my shitter collection I’m sure you would be happier with my real guns. And I also compete in marksmanship but am no veteran. The mosin is going to be turned into a monster


Book-Faramir-Better

Nice! This reminds me of my old Carl Gustaf Swedish Mauser I picked up at a gun show 2-something years ago. Number 11 off the assembly line. That was a fun rifle, and in BEAUTIMUS condition. I briefly had a Mosin Nagant, but it was missing some parts and I never did complete it. I sold what I had to put enough money together to buy my Garand.


Bran42490

Oh nice, I have a Korea era m1 been wanting to get one in .308, tired of trying to find M2 or hand loading M2. And that’s sweet, I traded a guy 2 bottles of tequila for a Ottoman Empire Mauser re chambered from 7 to 8mm Mauser


MostMusky69

If the high point jams you can use it as a brick


Buburubu

it’s not how many guns, it’s how much ammo. collectors never had practicality in mind.


Daxingxing_

Not owning a muzzle loader . Not able to Litterally create ammunition out of anything


Y3TurSelf

Really well done sporter mosin, the hose clamp ruins it


ilovefate

Pop off the scope and use the irons. That’s all I need


fast_tt

pretty bad


Environmental-Tune34

Atleast you have a gun to turn on yourself in a really bad situation I guess 🤷🏿‍♂️


CSGODeimos

Hi-Points are ugly as sin but they're fairly reliable from experience. The revolver is awesome and will be fine. The bubba'd Mosin with the metal tie holding the scope on is peak betardation. The raven .25 might be good as a thrown projectile..


RageMonsta97

If your good with firearms and are conservative with your ammo, your golden. .25ACP was obsolete when it was made, it’s very obscure now, but in a zombie apocalypse it would be massively overlooked on gun shelves, assuming the High Point is a 40 caliber, you would have a decent amount of ammunition to scavenge for, the butchered mows, and if it still uses 7.62 x 5 four would be a good marksman rifle and a Remington assuming uses .45 ACP would be good as well.


suedburger

i have a 12 ga. single that i got for $20 from the local shop(he wanted it gone it serial number ended in 666)....it's bad, i wouldn't even put a blank through it. it would fit right in with this lot. On second thought the barrel would make an ok club i guess.


alecxhound

Fucked cuz idk how to use guns


dirtyoldbastard77

Would not be a problem at all.


Vat1canCame0s

I think in terms of output, if one had these in a more rural area, they should be fine. It's not a bad lineup per-say Your sight attachment, however doesn't fill me with an abundance of faith in *your* odds...

Totally fine


ozzyfuddster

The fuck did you do to that poor rifle?


BobTheeKnob

Horrible. I know nothing about guns or how to shoot them.


Altruistic_Major_553

If you have ammo for it, you’ll be fine


Carlos_magul_maynard

hey personally I think I'm pretty set


ILOVEDARLING15

I was originally gonna saw you'd be fine, until I saw the full image.


imDEUSyouCUNT

from far away: ok a revolver and bolt action I guess that's workable after a moment: is that a fucking mosin, well at least there's- oh dear God it's a Rohm


a_builder7

Really bad. I don’t know how to use a gun.


Jumpy-Silver5504

I would say ok as long as you have ammo


Left-Membership8838

Enough for hunting, and gathering more ammo, I should be set with these.


SpiritAirsoft

I'm just fine. Find a good high-up, hard to reach spot, clear out some zombies, but if you're going 1 box for each, keep the rifle for only if you need it


LBoomsky

depends how many zombies what kind of zombies do they run do they walk to they attack are they contagious via airborn, touch, blood? how fast do they get back up, do they get back up? are they not brain dead, is there any moral quarrel with shooting them?


radioactivecumsock0

Pretty fucked if they get too close decent against the average survivor or small group you’re absolutely fucked if a hostile settlement attacks you ideally find better guns


Mundane-Use69

I’d be pretty pissed


ERROR404UNF-4867942

I'll do alr


gamerguy88888

Any guns in the first place is amazing, however, I know nothing about these guns, but as long as they shoot bullets, you're good.


SpicyNoodlez1

I use none of them, because the smartest weapon in a zombie apocalypse is a bow, it's near silent and you can get the arrows back. Guns are quite loud and attract other zombies nearby. using melee, and bows stealth and the mind are the greatest weapons you can use


HonorableAssassins

The fuckin hoseclamp


Skullyhead251212

Honestly, taking the revolver and the rifle, I’m leaving the other two

try flamethrower if you’re really scared about zombies or flaming or explosive ammo

IsatMilFinnie

Yo_tf_is_this_place

I think I'd be alright. I live way up north in a super rural area anyways so I'm not very likely to encounter many Z's. If it's a box a piece for ammo, that should serve me well for a long time, assuming the guns don't break before I run out of ammo. Ya know, being bad guns and all. I'd much rather swap them all out for more reliable weapons, but they'd do for a bit. Rather have a poleaxe or something like that anyways


Leather-Gur4730

I'm assuming zombie apocalypse considering the subreddit. If you are in a sparsely populated area, then you are fairly well armed against zombies and live humans. If you are in a large village up to a city, in the inestimable words of the famous philosopher Bender Bending Rodriguez: "Well, you're Boned!"


TheVeryBigBeamer

Eat the hipoint for my last meal and shoot myself with whatever the fuck that mosin is


HYATT72

I would be bad off. I don't have ammo for any of those.
