User blog comment:So-Pro Warrior/Tom Mason vs. Rick Grimes/@comment-26074921-20120915190134

Alright let's see what we have here

I won't go into much detail with the weapons as I feel in this case it is the men weilding them that are far more important. However that being said, here are my thoughts on the weapons. Rick Grimes is weilding better equippment at near all ranges save for close range where the Nite-Tac easily matches the Python. In Mid Range the Mossburg is more advanced and gains thes edge due to it's pump action feed system, better range, more shots, and more power behind each shot. The mid range factor is a very big edge for Grimes here. For the case of Long range the two weapons are effectively equal. The Special is an interesting match-up, but despite the force of the RPG and the area of effect, it won't be as useful in this fight as the Remington which will be able to fire off 5 times as many shots (alright yes I just multiplied one by five to make a point)

But like I said, this is not a battle of weapons, but the men behind them. In this case Mason may look like the initial victor. He has the experience fighting the aliens which my been seen as the equivalent to military experience, and he is more intelligent than Grimes and has shown himself very adept at battlefield tactics. However, you can not look over the fact that Mason is a school professor who was thrown into combat when the world ended, having no training and little experience before hand. He rose in the second Mass. not due to his combat skills, but because of his leadership capabilities. Grimes was a sheriff's deputy and had the combat and fire arm skills that come with that. He has shown himself to be no less of a leader and able to adapt to many situations.
