if they are that close to birds a 10 ga would be darn effective birds go into shock very easily.

Gotta die somehow.

If someone gives me the option to die relatively quickly or potentially later on down the line with $60m, I'm taking it.

I'll take an m4 pattern rifle, and a second for my #2. #3 gets a PKM.

See you on the other side.

Idiots.  Dangerous game rifles MIGHT be enough, so I'd go with that.
A pair of double guns and a scoped express, all in 505 gibbs, 500 nitro, or something along those lines.

Absolutely.

Shoot dinos and retire (to come back and shoot more dinos later!)

I wonder what they taste like wrapped in bacon.....

As far as gun?  Hmm.

WWII BAR loaded with AP ammo (and plenty of reloads / spare mags) should do the trick.

How much of this island have you explored?

ERIC
I stayed pretty close to the compound,
Figured if anyone came to look for me, that's
where they'd start.

GRANT
We need to head for the coast.

Are you sure?

GRANT
Why?

Closer you get to the water, the bigger
things get.
That’s Isla Sorna, Isla Nublar is a different dynamic because of the separation of the species.

I wouldn't do it.

There really is no loadout for a human on foot that is going to ensure success. Seriously. A coordinated ambush attack from multiple raptors at close quarters and I think I'm really going to stand a chance with any firearm? They won't even know what it is and what it is capable of doing to them until long after the encounter is decided.

Does anyone even know how long it would take a .50 bmg to incapacitate a t-Rex with a COM hit...assuming you are even up to humping one on foot through the bush from one side of an island to the other?

I suspect stealth, cover scents, night vision, flash bangs and tear gas are probably going to do more to increase your odds of survival than any man portable weapons system would.
View Quote
Personally I think with 3 people and having to carry all the ammo its just not worth it. I think a .50 bmg would pretty much stop t rex but you never know. Also for the raptors a quick burst of 50 beowulf would hurt but if they dont die before they reach you their long claws would gut you.

Also regarding flame throwers it seems useful but i think it would run out of fuel too quickly. And it would weigh so much youd have to sacrifice a machine gun to have it.

I would be tempted but probably decline.

With 8 to 10 people id probably do it though.

I'd give it a go.

Suppressed SCAR17 CQCs with M993, an M-79, and a suppressed FNX-45T. Add on thermals and NVs and it should be a good time.

Dino bones are not very dense. Any big game rifle could brain a T-Rex. I'd worry more about club-tails and trikes, and other things with thick bone plates.

It is light and will cut through anything on the island.

Good for hunting, defense, starting a fire, cutting down trees and makes cool sounds!

And best of all. You don't have to carry extra ammo for it.

50 bmg would shred a t rex, and 223 would put down a raptor in a burst. They were not armored or anything.

All that weight would retain a lot of heat..Ever held a large reptile? They retain the heat of their enclosure for a good while in cooler temps. Something even bigger? If not truly warm blooded* they'd still be warmer than the surroundings.


*Current school of thought is birds descended from dinosaurs, dinosaurs would be bound to have at least some warm blooded traits. Of course, we can just go to Africa and find out if that's true.

Easily. Animals have a deep rooted fear of fire. Flamethrowers and Shottys with dragons breath will convince them theres easier food around.

Not sure if its been asked but is it 60 million a piece? or 60 million total?  

As stated before, some sort of flamethrower and a sonic weapon.  Make enough loud noise and have flames, the predator will go elsewhere for an easier meal.

I wouldnt want to hump a 50 cal up a mountain.

Maybe one M249
M79
Couple M4s
Ton of medical gear and survival stuff.
Thats a vague brush.

Three guys carrying 100 pounds of gear and ammo each easy. Ankle breaking terrain. Probably the best way would be to evade any contacts. Ditch the belt feds and got with.

Three M4s
M79 and about twenty rounds of party mix for that.
Then the water and survival gear. That would be a motherfucker in tropical heat.

I would pay to go on this adventure, oh and my 21 year old body too.

If so, I'd hire two special forces guys, and tell them they'd each get 25 million extra if I make it back alive.

Same would go if we each got 20 mil. 5mil extra for each if I make it back alive.

If the survivors have to split it? No. Too much room for treachery.

8 (4 each on a belt) S&W 500 mags

Suspenders to hold up said belt.

3rd companion gets multiple G40’s, he’s also the biggest strongest conditioned sumbitch I can find as he’s gonna be ammo mule.

Hell Yeah,

Assuming you can only bring three souls into the park I like the idea of a dog, but if he wasn't trained, I'm not sure how much good it would be with an unfamiliar scent

I'd bring a SAW, and as much ammo as I could carry with previsions

Person #2 Battle rifle or semi auto big bore, I'd have to look and see what is possible, but a 308 seems to be the smallest I'd want

Person #3 Flamethrower and claymores (we're going to have to stop at some point if more than a day hike.
