How many places are there to find guns?

[The early worm deserves the bird]

Am I missing any place?

I know that every (major) town (minus March Ridge) has a police station.

There's the hunting lodge/shooting range over towards the mall

The gun shop at the town with no name.

The gun shop in West Point

The gun shop at the end of the world (Top left of the map in that teeny tiny town)

The Prison

I've had a frightening amount of luck finding them in the school in West Point

Strangely enough any locker has a chance. Once i found a nice batch of 38-s in a school too.
For me basicly i never found any weapons so far in police stations.
I found the most of them on zeds or on those occasional gun hoarders that have NOT boarded up their homes. Hunters presumably since they usually have 2-3 rifles.
Beside that i have yet to actually visit ANY of the gun shops:)

Mall might have also a gun shop not sure though since never been there yet.

The Mall doesn't. I recently (as of like a month or two ago) raided it for the first time. HOLY DEAR GOD does it have EVERYTHING else but yeah no guns. In fact if you ever want to max out your character stats that place probably has just about everything you need..... maybe not metal working (Although there are some propane takes their because it has propane grills).

Supermarkets also have a chance to spawn shotguns and shells in the checkout counters. I've found shotguns fairly often in the Rosewood super, even with spawns turned down to rare or extremely rare.

The Hunting Lodge up to the left of the mall usually has a very good selection of guns and ammo, including knives.

i don't know i find tons of guns killing zombies. in my current game it has been 11-13 days i have hit zero gun locations and removed zero from houses ( found a few but left them) but in the 800+ zombies i have killed i have at least 30 guns. it's ammo i'm lacking nearly all the guns are empty when i finds them and only 1 out of 3 has a box of bullets on them.

It is NordiL btw:P
Well if it is possible will see. Though i have a few very peculiar tactics and tastes. Also dont be surprised when my guy is just 0 str and 0 fitness char.:D

I just towed 9 cars to the Muldraugh gas station...of course i did not notice two of them were in good condition so not good to use as blockades. Only one single car required and then i have my 3rd gas station fully fortified. Well a genny missing though. (But found like 6! antique ovens in warehouse cratesXD)
i wonder if i should go to WP once done to get generators or to finish off blockading the gas station there. I will have then a steady path of safe houses.
The current two blocked gas stations have gennies, running fridges, each have at least 40 pounds of food in the fridges....Oh and farms. I should develop the safe space areas...like making gardens on the roof of the diners....but soo much to do and so little time. I also want to make some roads through the forests....so i do not have to make all those detours to visit places:) (But i need more sacks...25 is not enough!)

But on topic:
There are those unmarkerd houses, as in no boarding up, where one-two-three guys are lying on the floor. They usually have rifles, pistols and boxes of ammo. Usually 2-3 for each weapon. No clue how to find out which is what. Perhaps annotated maps? (I keep hoarding them for now and not visiting!)
Another thing is where you can find rifles is the hunting party. That is a roadside event. You come across a car surrounded by 3-5 zombies each having a gun on his back!

I tend to find guns in Diners hilariously. I guess the customers thought they were food critics.

Soo many people seem to love guns in this game and it baffles me since guns attracts a frightening amount of Xombos. I mostly just use them as distraction. Fire a shot then run back and around the now-moved Xombos.

Does the military base near Rosewood have guns? I know it's a good spawn for military backpacks etc

Check every zed. Recently I've been finding many pistols. Mostly they are empty, but not always.

if you have Ravencreek mod, Guns.. GUNS EVERYWHERE

Actually depends where you are:) Trailer parks are the best place to look for guns on zeds. Nearly every 4th-6th will have a semi-auto pistol. I have NOT found a 38. on trailer park zeds. But lotsa m1911 pistol with clip loaded and a box of ammo. For every 3 m1911 i also find an m9. Also with clip and box of ammo.
Also it seems that the certain weapon type zombies are tied to zombies nearby. Like if there is around 500 or so zombies within 4 screen size tile, maybe more is required, you will meet a shotgun zombie.
