If you run out of weapons to use or you just have pieces of weapons or just tons of raw materials every where why not try and make your own? They don't even have to work! And now adding to increase everyones genius...Traps!!!
(Note: This is for fun so go crazy.)

My improvised weapons (will continue to add with new ideas)

*A miniature chainsaw tied to a six foot iron pipe.
*A small rabid animal tied to the end of a stick.
*A jar full of bees and at the bottom some nectar.
*A sharpened shovel.
*A gun that shoots toothpicks at high speeds.
*A doll that makes sounds attached with remote detonated bombs.
*A handgun with a small smooth edged knife welded on the end of it.
*A shotgun shell that has explosive shots instead of normal shots.
*A riot shield covered with forward pointing nails or knives.
*A mailbox (the ones that sit away from the house on a peg.)
*A super soaker filled with alcohol and has a lighter fitted at the end of the barrel.
*An axe with a pick axe on one end and an axe head on the other.
*A fire poker with a knife on the end.
*A bazooka that shoots chainsaws.
*A tazer that uses a car battery.
*A rifle that fires bullets as wide as a shotgun shell and those said bullets would explode.
*A gun that can use anytype of ammunition.
*A remote control airplane that drops bombs.

Since this doesn't seem to need to
1. be possible
2. disable a Max Brooks zombie
3. make sense

I'm going to go with a suit with superfine needles woven into it, so at the slightest pressure, it rips into the skin.
It would also look Smooth-as-fuck

The small rabid animal tied to the end of a stick sounds good.

I think i would have a bazooka that shot lots of pine needles.(The tree in the yard drops way too many.)

rabbid animal on a stick? FAK NOOO! then you'll have a zombiefied/rabbid animal... and how would you get the rabbid animal on there without it biting you??? LOGIC NOT FOUND IN ANY OF THESE... except the sharpened shovel.
ok, here's what i have... ZOMBIE CHEW TOY!!! thats right folks. you take the padding from a folding chair (should be like memory foam type stuff...) rol it up, wrap denim around it. attach to your dominant arm's ulna via twine or tape. when zombie attacks, you stick the padding in its mouth, let it chew on it for a bit then take your combat knife and sever the spine with the nondominant arm. hehehehe. stupid zobieee tryin to eatify my armz. dont you know i kill you guys for fun and have teaparties with your corpsie corpses?

Better than a rabid animal tied to the end of a stick: A Zombie Head tied to the end of a stick.

AKA: Zombie Head on a Stick, or ZHOAS (See Sluggy Freelance).

Other options could include a BattleBot, remote controlled and outfitted with diamond-tipped buzzsaws on the sides. Run it through a horde, it cuts their legs off at the knees. Run it back through again and it cuts their heads off (the saws would have to be strategically placed at the neck/head level of a crawler).

A home-made particle beam, constructed from every day household items; a microwave would be an essential component, along with an Xbox controller and, of course, a paperclip.

Or an armored, riding lawnmower with the safety covers removed: Essentially you'd have a riding a large automated death machine.

*A flash light that doubles as a handgun.
*A necklace made of small explosive beads.
*A large crossbow that can launch trees.
*A shuriken with rotatating chainsaw blades.
*A gun that shoots shurikens.
*Brass knuckles with blades or spikes on the knuckles.
*An electric eel wrapped in copper or tin foil.
*A high powered staple gun.
*A sword doused with a flamable jelly and set on fire.
*A grenade that shoots out hundreds of tazer darts when detonated.
*An egg or soda can filled with gun powder, shrapnel, and has a fuze.
*A tear gas sprayer.
*A frozen water balloon.
*A grenade that cuts up the enemy with shattered glass and then douses them with lemon juice, alcohol, and salt.

I figured with adding traps to this forum topic I guess that I might aswell make a trap of my own so here it goes... A toaster when triggered will pop up two 9mm handguns and fire them.

In a zombie outbreak though I can see that a lot of primative traps that could be used in many situations such as the good old fashioned pit fall or the bent back tree since well if the zombies we are going against can't even notice much of their surroundings, hell even an intelligent zombie would have difficulty trying to avoid any classic trap.

You could always get some turnout gear from your local fire department (that shit is damn near bulletproof, no zombie's gonna bite through that) and just go crazy with some molotovs.

It should be noted that full turnout gear won't make you fireproof, it'll make you fire resistant, so the fire will still kill you if you don't get out soon enough.

Ok what about this. Me and my army buddies just thought of this... Homemade plastic explosive on the end of an arrow that way even if you miss, the zombie is going to get messed up. The arrow would have a small timer hooked up to a det-charge.

Up sides:
-able to take out more then one zombie
-can stop raiders/looting vehicals
-if you miss u still have a chance to kill it
-used to breach doors and more
-easy to make (not going to tell u how sry)

down sides:
-takes a long time to make
-can only carry a certain amount of ammo
-unaccurate
-in a close ranged situation your screwed

this weapon would be used as a defencive weapon or for large hordes!

That's a really cool idea man! :D
But the extra weight on the end of the arrow could easily ruin its trajectory >.>
Just aim higher than you would with a normal arrow :)

A gun, that shoots guns, that shoot deep fried beer cans.

+1 if you get the reference.

Oh, and in the back of my year 8 (8th grade?) is a tank that shoots deathstars that shoot death stars that shoot deathstars. It also has a massive plow on the front, a gun that shoots nukes, another that shoots helicopters that shoot nukes, several laser guns and overall extreme IMBA.

Ok, here's an idea for an improvised weapon... What if you got a thing... And put it on a gun of some sort... And then put the gun under water for a couple months until it gets rusty.. And then shoot the thing out of the rusty gun so the iron oxide mixes with the expanding gasses and makes the air around the thing inside the thing make a really bad thing! Yeah!

But not really, because that would be weird.

You could do what they did in Northern Ireland during the troubles. Fertiliser bombs under humpback bridges, detonate them when armoured vans go over. Then they'd steal the money and buy guns.

seeing how we are taking so much about explosives then a good zombie killing one would have to be a nail bomb. Terrorists use this all the time. Take your explosive and wrap it in barb wire or put it in a jar ofnails. A buddy of mine brought back pictures of a dead hodgie killed by one. Man it could so get the zombies good.

According to Terry Pratchett, Cohen's daughter can kill someone with a gerbil.
I saw them on Mythbusters try to do damage with playing cards, I think they were only able to break the skin.

But Gambit is an X-Men. So He doesn't pay fair.

I thought of something... If you can capture a zombie and then plant remote explosives on it and have it wear a bullet proof helmet and if raiders or anything human came to attack your fort you can send it out and it would follow the raiders due to it's hunger and then since they can't kill the said zombie (if it was a headshot only zombie) when it gets close enough you can detonate the explosives.

I don't think they predate on each other and you can't get Solanum if you've already been transformed.
Useful against raiders though. As a cruel, cruel weapon

Along with the severed zombie heads idea a good trap would be to fill a pit with them cover it with leaves and stuff and if some poor raider falls into it! BAM!

...but then you've just got a zombie in a pit.
Why not just put stakes at the bottom?
That's guaranteed to kill.
And waaaaaaay less effort is needed than beheading zombies.
