The Silent Zombie Survival Weapon

Your choice of zombie killing weapon is a formidable one.  A skilled blowgun shooter can accurately shoot at the brains of a zombie from a great distance, and most importantly do it silently.  Silence is a key component here because zombies are attracted to the loud noises a rifle or handgun can make.  And when they are attracted, they travel in packs.  Making a silent kill on a single zombie is very important and can save you from being overwhelmed with their numbers.
