Alien vs. Predator that will be a good one. I'm leaning toward Predator. He has "Technology".

I suggest THIS: http://waffen-der-welt.alices-world.de/infantry_weapons/antim_rifles/a_152amr.html
Austrian anti-material rifle; caliber 15,2mm; Vo=1.450m/s (4.760fps)!
The projectile penetrates 40mm (1,57") of armor steel at 1.000m (1.099yards) distance.
THAT should teach 'em a darn good lesson!

Weasels rip my flesh.
I'd send in Howard Stern as : FART MAN.........
Death & destruction soon follow, or possibly complete boredom?

LOL!! You certainly will.
I want a broadsword, machete, BHP, and CAR15 or FAL.
Those greys are pretty small and rodenty looking, maybe a 10/22 with a ton of Butler Creek biggee mags and CCI Stingers with a super soaker in case Mel Gibson was right!

Well, since I don't have time to buy something new and knowing the folks that live near me, the guns stores will be picked clean by the time I warm up my car. I guess I better pick something I have on hand.
Depending on how soft the invaders happen to be, I'd either go with my FAL or my Mossberg 12ga.
Sidearm - 1911 Govt. with a Makarov as a BUG.
Rest of the family gets equiped with SKS carbines and various 9mm, .38 special pistols.
They aren't getting my town until it's a smoking hole in the ground.

DMK, yes that was my motivation. Should have clarified this. Since the aliens are to arrive tomorrow, Dec. 25th, we'll have to use what is on hand.
BTW, the article went on to say that the aliens will land in GWR or Nueve Meheco. I don't think the aliens are going to last long in rural Arizona.

A 12 gauge, lots of shells, a comfortable seat, and a big 'ol pile of Reese's Pieces to lure 'em in.

What could be more fun than picking off Aliens with an AK???? ( I can't believe no one else is gonna use an AK!)
Most people don't know that the AK was designed here in the US for killing Aliens and the technology was "seeded" in Russia. Since scientific studies showed that the average AK was capable of killing 47 aliens before they got the shooter it was named the AK (A lien K iller) - 47!
They never seem to wear any clothes (or protective devices). No need to worry about hollow points clogging up on clothing and not expanding!
1. AK is fun to shoot!
2. More FUN to watch Aliens explode than just "take a hit and go down"!
(Of course, some of these guys ARE a little small and on the skinny side - hope I could hit 'em at long range.)

I think this all depends on what Alien species we are talking about here.
If its the E.T. Reeses Pieces eating little guy, I think I would go for a 12 ga loaded with bird shot for when they steal the bikes and start flying. There a little bigger than clay pidgeons, but I am sure it will work out just fine.
If we are talking the "greys" from "Signs", than I think just about anything will work fine. Maybe load up some "hydra-shoks" .

10mm in one hand and a 9mm in the other...unless this thread can be used to justify the purchase of a nice pump shotgun.

HBK,
Like you need any real justification for a pump shotgun?

Shotgun loaded with the deadliest weapon known to man, 12 gauge buckshot.
Well, since (in the mythos) Predator SPREAD alien eggs to other planets so they can hunt them, I'm fairly sure the Predator will win.

Alien vs. Predator?
Isn't that based on a computer game?
Anyway, when Alien III came out, I thought, they couldn't POSSIBLY make a worse Alien movie . . . I would've bet money on it.
Then Alien IV was released . . .
. . . made me glad I'm not a betting man.
Predator was good . . . Predator II was not so good. Downhill spiral started early.
So now we have Alien V . . . or is it Predator III . . . Hmmmmmm . . . I'm not getting my hopes up.

Most of you guys are omitting one sad fact: the slimy critters from outer space will surely shoot back. And I've got a gut feeling, that their firepower is nothing to be scoffed at!

I don't know which guns would work best on the space aliens, but I know of all things, an Apple Powerbook will be used to take down the shields on the mothership.

HEY, take it easy, you paranoid Americans...
You might realize everytime I drop in on folks in Illinois,
I'm a visiting alien.
Trigger-happy xenophobes, the whole stinking lot of you.

No, Partisan, the Predators' technology spreads Aliens to give them something to hunt. Long storyline going back a long ways in the Dark Horse comics. But <shrug> don't take my word for it- do a search online.
My personal army of ninja Sasquatches will keep me from harm in my secret underground lair nee spiderhole which Elvis dug for me. Besides, by completely covering myself with tinfoil I reflect all light that strikes me, thus rendering myself invisible while my entire body becomes an emmissive energy weapon kinda like when the hormones erupted in junior high school.
I scoff at the alien menace, scoff I tell you. I heard that the grey ones taste like chicken.
