What would be the perfect all around gun for a lone survivor?

[Man vs Wild 313]

I was wondering if anyone good give me suggestions on the perfect primary weapon for a lone survivor?

I've been looking and it seems like the m14 has won it so far...

m4 sd... keep it silent and you might live longer

[octarine 60]

Agreed with m4 but if you are going to avoid players, the m4a3cco regular with sd ammo will be silent to zombies even though you hear it.

Plus it can use sd and regular STANAG so you have more options. Currently thats my primary qhile I search for sd ammo.

AS50 TWS

Well a NICE gun to have is the M4A1 CCO SD.... BUT, the AKM is everywhere and ammo is extremely abundant.

[Bad Science 23]

M4 CCO if you do not have night vision and play at night, L85 is pretty amazing if you can find one, M4 sd if you really want to go unnoticed. If you plan to purely pvp (hang out, look for players, shoot few zombies) m14 is my favorite. If you use it on zombies you will be in over your head quick however...

Going lone wolf, it'd be m4 cco, and DMR. Once you get NVG's you can use them with the DMR, unlike other sniper rifles

Im not sure if there would be. I run with an assault rifle with common ammo. I also carry a sniper in my pack for them players!! Havin a rare gun with rare ammo leaves you some where with no ammo.

I believe this suits you more.

I use the M104m, and a AKM.

Mind you I do not go about shooting folks either, I avoid them.

Winchester...

seriously.. easy to find and bullets come up quite often.

does everything you need to survive quite well.

[schrapple 119]

X2 on the winchester, or the M104 (even the double barrel with enough ammo will keep you out of trouble till you find a M104)

[Axz 30]

BFG 9000.

....What? You didn't say it had to be a REAL gun.

[chris p. bacon 182]

We can't recommend a gun if you don't give us your playing style. For all we know, you could be a sniper and we're recommending M4 CCO SDs.

[Littleassassin2 73]

Get a coyote pack, and get an m4a1 cco sd with a few mags, and in the backpack keep an m107/as50 with a few mags.

Mk 48 mod 0 - Will take care of; zeds, players, animals, atvs, bikes, cars, trucks, helos, boats, you name it.

atm I have a m240 and a m24 w/ a m9sd I am more of a medic but sometimes I like to pvp

[sostronk 334]

Winchester1866 or Lee Enfield. Both 1 shot Zombies, two shot players. Ammo is common and in areas that aren't so heavily camped.

[redemptionse 9]

Im really attached to my M4 SD and DMR loadout

Lee Enfield are you joking, they don't call it the dinner bell for nothing.

[sostronk 334]

Lee Enfield are you joking, they don't call it the dinner bell for nothing.

Not joking. Its really good. Just requires some skill to use.

[fosty99 160]

Winchester is a pretty nice gun if you're going to be sticking around farmlands.

[jblackrupert 308]

I prefer the AKM myself.

The weapons you choose to keep should match your playing style.

[Steve.C 23]

M16A4 ACOG.

Uses STANAG ammo, so plentiful. Accurate out to 800m with practice.

My primary loadout is based on PvP action initiated against me. I want to be able to reach out and touch my enemy without worrying about ammunition issues.

The problem is finding M16A4s. I also like using AKM/Kobra/AK-74 as the ammo is stupid plentiful and they're decently powerful. AKM is very stout and very accurate once you've practiced and can guessimate ranges.

If I ever had an L85, I'd probably be biased. Talk about being able to control a situation... long range target spotting and scouting capabilities mean scoping a town before infil is easy as hell.
