    No stuff like nukes, air strikes, etc. Mine would be Revolver with a scope, 24 shots to one round, semi automatic, could double as a shotgun and has a flamethrower attachment. ::S:

    A good, heavy crowbar for melee, a semi-auto pistol for close range encounters, a hunting rifle (scoped) if they're the slow kind of zombie, an burst fire assault rifle if they're the fast kind (Type 95 or M16) for mid/long range. I like to think I'm a tactical kinda fighter.

    I would use probably a 30-06 rifle for long/medium range as ammo is relatively plentiful and the round has pretty good stopping power, a 12mm pistol for medium/short range for a similar reason to the 30-06, and a 12-gauge pump-action shotgun for short range. For melee, preferably a machete.

    I really have problems with guns. Like, REALLY have problems with them. Apparently, I'm a good shot with a revolver, but I just hate guns. In the event of a zombie apocalypse, my friend and I have devised we raid and take over the Cabella's near us for weapons n' stuff.

    On topic: I'd probably carry around various melee weapons like an axe while my friends used the guns.

    A twig with a burning marshmallow at the end of it. Nothing will want to go up against that.

    I have a shotgun to hand, but it is not ideal, yes I know how to use it but think about it, the heavy ammunition being carried around everywhere for one zombie a piece? Absolutely not worth it. I'd try and find some sort of HMR rifle, that would work nicely. If that isn't available, better stick to a hammer, a hatchet, anything I can crush a skull with.

    A long staff with taser thingies on the ends. Even if they're dead, the zombies would still jerk around on the electricity, which would give me time to run. :p
