M16 Assault Rifle 

The M16 is a gun that you can find in zombie survival game, Project Zomboid. The M16 is single-handedly the most rare gun in the game, only available through military areas, and a very small chance of it being in gun stores. This thing is a BEAST, the only gun having full auto in the game (Which means you need high aiming skill to manage this guns immense recoil..) Good fucking luck getting the mags, they're equally as rare or even rarer at times...they use 5.56mm (Obviously.) It can also use all the attachments in the game. It's great, and can only be detected from 70 tiles. The gun is evidently the most efficient of all to gun down hordes, but you'll definitely need level 7 or more on aiming to manage the recoil. (This was the last gun description, I hope you enjoyed them. :D I'll begin to describe the melee's, which will be exponentially more difficult! I hope you'll read those too.)
Timmy: "JIMMY I FOUND THE FUCKING M16 ASSAULT RIFLE."

Jimmy: "WHY ARE YOU SO FUCKING LUCKY?!"

M14 Rifle 

The M14 Rifle is a gun that you can find in zombie-survival game, Project Zomboid. (OK, here comes one of the best guns in the game.) The M14 is a great rifle, 20 round mags, semi-auto, great range, and hell does this gun pack a punch. It's more of a pseudo-sniper and fast firing rifle. By the way it uses .308 ammo. This gun is quite rare, good luck getting it, and the mags. But if you do, you'll be treated with the ability to add EVERY attachment in the game onto this thing. I kid you not, every attachment. The Red dot sight, iron sights, underbarrel laser, 2x Scope, 4x Scope, 8x Scope and recoil pad. Not only that, but it's detection radius is fairly low (For a rifle.) being 70 tiles! Now the downsides are pretty much just that its rare, heavy, and can jam. So you've got yourself a great rifle.
Timmy: "Holy shit! I found an M14 Rifle!"

Jimmy: "Lucky bastard."

M1911 Pistol 

The M1911 Pistol is a gun that you can find in zombie survival game, Project Zomboid. The M1911 Pistol is a classic, think of one zombie survival game, and this gun is in it. It's alright, pretty basic pistol. 7 round mags, and decent fire rate. It can only take iron sights, Red Dot sights, and underbarrel lasers. There really isnt much to say about this gun. It's the literal most basic out of any gun. The base hit chance is fine, ammo is easy to find, mags arent as common but are manageable, and the gun has OK damage. If you find it, cool. Better than the M9 Pistol for sure though.
Timmy: "Hey, theres an M1911 Pistol in this gun case. Want it?"

Jimmy: "Eh, sure. It's cool I guess."

M36 Revolver

The M36 revolver is a gun that you can find in zombie survival game, Project Zomboid. This gun is the last of all revolvers, and man is it different from the rest. Now lets start off with the best thing about this gun, it's really quiet. Like the most quiet in the game, being only able to be heard from 30 tiles away. Not only that, it's the most accurate out of any handgun. It's much more common than many other handguns, and can be found in cabinets. (Along with the ammo, which is .38 Special.) It cant jam, and it's the LIGHTEST of any gun in the game. Now for the downsides. It doesnt do much damage, has one less ammo capacity than other revolvers, and takes a bit longer to reload. Thats literally it. It's a really nice gun, can be used to level aiming skill for multiple reasons, it's quiet, accurate, and doesnt jam. This gun is well-rounded, personally I find it as a reliable secondary.
Timmy: "Neat, an M36 Revolver!"

Jimmy: "Cool, we can level our aiming a bit."

M625 Revolver

(Hell, this has been a beast of a day! This is the 5th definition, I really enjoy writing these :D ) The M625 Revolver is a gun you can find in zombie survival game, Project Zomboid. Now, the M625 is a pretty neat gun. Not the best, Not the worst, but good. The stopping power is pretty high, tied with the D-E Pistol. The damage is higher than the M9 Pistol (Like most guns...) but not extremely notable. Cant jam by the way! It's somewhat rare, and has an 70 tile detection radius. You can find it in houses, and police stations. The gun itself has the same amount of attachments available to it as the Magnum (Iron sights and Red Dot.) While not the best gun in the game, its a nice find. (I'd use this over the M9 any day....) The gun itself is a pretty well-rounded gun. I like it, but prefer better guns.
Timmy: "Hey look, an M625 Revolver."

Jimmy: "Cool, take it. Might need it."
The Magnum is a gun you can find in zombie survival game, Project Zomboid. (First revolver, yay.) Now then, sit down for this one because the Magnum is literally the best handgun in the game. It has the highest MINIMUM damage of all guns, and tied for max damage of all guns with the D-E Pistol. It has the highest stopping power, the highest range, and literally cannot jam. It is more common than the D-E pistol (If you gamers want a tip on where to find it, check farms ;D ) and usually comes with more ammo than the D-E pistol itself. It uses .44 Magnum ammo (Obviously...) which is pretty rare. But, aside from the good, heres the bad. It is the loudest handgun of all, having a detection radius of 80 tiles....thats a lot of tiles. The reload speed is slower than most pistols (which use mags, you have to load the revolver with each individual bullet.) And also is tied for 2nd least accurate pistol (With the D-E pistol. WHICH IS WAY YOU LEVEL AIMING.) But if you really put in the effort and level aiming, this gun is crazy good. (Also it can only take iron sights and red dot. Sad D: )
Jimmy: "Check it out, I found a magnum!"

Timmy: "I wish I found it..."

D-E Pistol 

The D-E Pistol is a gun that you can find in zombie survival game, Project Zomboid. Now any person who has played literally ANY FPS game can instantly tell that this gun is a Desert Eagle (Deagle for short, and specifically .44 Magnum version, not .50 AE.) It is a BEAST of a pistol, dealing the most damage out of any handgun (Tied with the Magnum pistol, definition coming soon :D ) and having the second highest stopping power out of any gun. (Once again, tied with the M625 revolver. That definition is ALSO coming soon :D ) For those of you who don't know what stopping power is, neither do I. (Ok, I just looked it up....apparently its "the ability to incapacitate a target"? Too hard to understand.) Ok, aside from that, the D-E pistol has some downsides. It has one of the largest detection radiuses in the game, being 70 tiles. Yikes. Not only that, this gun uses Magnum ammo which is pretty rare. Good luck finding it, because its rare. (For reference I have a few hundred hours on the game, found it like 3 times on several different saves.) And the mags for it are even rarer than the gun itself. But if you do get enough ammo and mags, you've got a hell of a reliable secondary.
Timmy: "Oh my god, it took so long, but I finally got the D-E Pistol."

Jimmy: "Good luck getting ammo for it..."
