Best place 2 be in zombie uprising! (in term of spudgunning)

Sorry about the title, I ran out of space :D, but anyways...

Where would you want to be stuck in the event of a zombie uprising?? Note that this is considering that you have a sudden primal urge to make a spudgun and fight back against the zombies, so take these things into consideration:
1. Would you have access to good materials?
2. would you have access to a good power source? ex. air compressors, fuels...

Rules:
1. Be creative!! Don't, for example, say, "I would be stuck in a pvc factory because they have lots of pvc."
2. State where you would want to be and why.
3. Note that we are only talking about spudguns, not real ones, or any other weapons for that matter.

I have a great place to be, but I want to see if anyone can get it first.
I vaguely remember a topic like this, but can't find it, so please don't flame on me if this was originally your idea.

Good luck!!

probably a menards not just because they have a lot of pvc but they have everything needed to make a powerful spudgun. It would also provide adequate cover and it even has food.

yeah, same here. Menards over fleet farm because fleet farm doesn't sell any (if any, very little) pressure rated pvc fittings/pipes.

You save big money......you save big money!......When you shop MENARDS!!

lowes, so i can make lots of cell core guns that will blow up while firing, maximizing the damage

I think the last thing I'd use against a zombie uprising is a spudgun, I'd be camping wherever they stock the M-134s and M1A1s.

i'd be camping with turbosuper...

maybe make a half-circle with hundreds of spud guns. then when they get close, fire all the spud guns that are all wired to go off at the same time, then open up with a m-134.

I'm surprised nobody thought of this...
What about the dentist's office? They have all pneumatic tools, and they must have a lot of pipes for all the water the use. I was thinking about using one of those blowgun-esque dentist tools to make some sort of bbmg. I was playing with some of these sort of things at the dentist's office today and noticed that the little balls inside looked something fierce like 6mm diameter. Maybe you could use those as ammo.

Oil rig, if zombies can fly or swim i'm sure you'll have plenty of materials to fight them off with.

what about our own homes? Most of us got the firepower to stop all the zombies in Dawn of the Dead.. :D

Ooo...that's a good one too.

I would stick with menards rather than my own home, unless i had to pay for materials :roll:

but yeah, i got enough fire power in my bedroom, let alone my house :D

that is worth making a signature.

anyways, I would want to be in the CIA(controlled industrial area) at PSNS(puget sound naval shipyard)... they have everything laying around everywhere, all sizes of metal pipe, 8" and larger PVC.... there is even a periscope from a decommissioned sub(the titan ssn586) which is 60ft long 6" pipe... cranes, welders, everything and anything you could imagine that can be used, walking back to my car everyday after work, I just want to take everything home with me, but the C in CIA makes "borrowing" anything kind of hard as a lot of what can be found is nuclear grade parts...

I'd be in a truck with a cattle plow. But if I had to stick to spud guns I'd be in a metal work shop. Lots of metal there.
