If I had no guns I'd take a field hickey stick. They are light and the hook allows for grabbing and or tripping. Plus they swing like baseball bats. One of those as primary and a full tang knife as secondary would be a good choice....

Runner up
A halbert or spear.

4' piece of 1/2" rebar cut at a 60 bevel at the business end and heavily wrapped with hockey tape for the handle. Perfect for skewering skulls. Light, effective and available.

I’m just going to throw @MatB at them, like Thor doing “get help” with Loki.

One Iron of course. It’s not good for anything else.

I have a couple of baseball bats lying around the house just in case.

Honestly, which would you prefer -- to get nonfatally shot, or hit in any part of your body with a baseball bat? I'll take the bullet

If you get bit by a zombie don’t you never die then? I mean it’s a shit existence, but better than being in the ground maybe.

I think zombies are on the autistic spectrum, they are very focused on only one thing.

That’s a good short story, “Night on Mispec Moor” by Larry Niven about how to fight zombies.

Anything by Niven is great.

Add in some throwing stars and I’m in business!

Lol unless you hit me in the eye with that you are going to be eating it. Never understood these for defense or offense for that matter. I’m pretty sure anyone can take 5-6 two inch deep cuts and still keep coming. Unless they are on TV that is. Then one star in the leg will kill you.

Please further this thought, I am so curious.

Bullet in your arm or leg, you practically don't even know it happened until you see the blood.

Baseball bat to any part of the body? Not so much

Until it gets infected...

Until it gets infected...

And people worry about lead in their chips….

I think I’ll just have a pint and wait for it to all blow over.

I recall some random "article" in the latter pages of Bluff or Card Player not terribly long after the poker boom where the author was describing what to do during the zombie apocalypse. One suggestion was an old-school athletic tube sock full of poker chips and use that as a flail against the oncoming hoards:

(The other option was to grab the hottest person you could find and "go at it on the closest poker table as the security cameras would record that moment for all of eternity" (or something to that effect.)

It's basically working at the DMV for all of eternity.
