Claymores sit above ground, are aimed at approaching enemy lines, and are designed to take out (1) pursuers, and (2) masses of soldiers (or zombies
)trying to overwhelm your line.
By the way, it's not the mine that kills people.. it's the malevolent person who plants it that kills people. You don't need mines to get the same results. Even if no mines were produced, these people would find other means of maiming people. The Viet Cong rarely had access to mines, so they used other means like Pungi Traps. Look it up.. I'll take a mine any day over tripping and/or falling into a pungi trap.
there are few people i've heard make as much sense about weapons as you. i heard some guys talking about gun control and the one guy says "so do you think EVERYONE should have machine guns?" real snotty sounding, and the guy he was talking to, without missing a beat, said "yes. there is nothing a law abiding citizen would do with a machine gun that he would not do with a handgun." the guy looked shocked. i laughed. i think everyone should have a machine gun, like switzerland, then zombies wouldn't stand a chance.
