For me it didn't stick out so much because I know only one thing. There would not be an
entire dead army on the ground unless the bullets had run out. These zombies are not
trying out for the NFL combine. They shamble. So unless you are out of ammo, you do not
drop your rifle. I doubt seriously that there was a single round in any of those rifles.

YOUR MIND has you thinking more like a war movie, like bammo, head shot, man drops rifle with
a full clip in it. Nope. haha

And to Irratebass, I THOUGHT maybe that's what you were getting at about the comic. But once you
added the eye roll, all bets were off, lol..
It am all guud.

Not to over complicate things, but the basic battle load of ammo is 210 rounds or 7/ 30 round mags.(not even assuming there isn't spare ammo for the M4's and SAW LMG in the vehicles) Lets say they have 50% kill ratio, ok there should be 105 down walkers per solider with that being said 10 soldiers should be able to drop 1050 walkers!! The scene's dont reflect that, I would bet they let them get to close and they had them for lunch lol so the rifles & ammo pouches shouldn't all be empty.

What do you mean, that's what these threads are FOR. By all means, COMPLICATE THINGS.

But again, I just don't see a soldier letting a walker shamble up to him if he had rounds available.
If they worked as a team or as a wall of fire (base of fire anyway) they should not have walkers
getting nibbles on them. No way.

I totally agree that if a MP5 or any kind of automatic weapon was lying there, you'd be crazy
not to upgrade. Of course a shotgun is more useful for ensuring a head shot when it counts.
And they do not show any scenes of Rick picking up and checking any weapons. I think
he is like me, not worth a look since everyone with a gun is dead. I DO UNDERSTAND the
basic idea you are putting forth. It's like the bi+(h in the scary movie putting down a knife.
I'm like, what, did you need a spare hand to scream with? Pick up the weapon, idiot.
