This is actually a pretty smart evaluation of the situation.
I think the hardest part for me in this whole zombie *edited* is loved ones…My girlfriend is 7hrs away from me right now unless I am at school…then she’s right down the hall.
If this were to happen at school I believe the easiest thing I could do is Wal-Mart or the local gun store, going to school in Maine has a lot of advantages. If I drive an hour north of where I am I will be completely secluded however, too far north is Canada and I can’t risk going into public areas.
Mini van is an excellent choice and I completely support this. I own a mini-van and drive it well. I was thinking a good way to fortify it would be to go ahead and use power tools, because they are quicker and no matter what you are going to make noise.
Weapons- 12 gauge over and under as well as sawed off side to side. 9mm and several of them. As well as a high functioning power rifle. Like you said if it works for deer it works for me plus it will save a lot of ammo if I use that over an auto-matic. Last gun if this is a realistic assessment would be an MP5. I have seen several of them at gun shops around here.
