Did anyone else catch this in season 1?
When Kenny, Lee and the others flee the motel, they are seen having rifles in their possession.
When they are seen arriving in Savannah, they don't have them.
Nor are the rifles seen on the train.
Why the hell would they leave their rifles behind.
That doesn't make a lick of damn sense!
Even if they don't have ammo, the rifles can still be used as clubs.
So why the hell would they leave them behind?

1. They didn't have any ammo, and using rifles as clubs is kinda stupid.
2. (if you let Lilly into the RV): Lilly stole the RV, taking whatever they left with her.
Anyway, this is more of a plot-hole on Telltale's part.
Does Davy Crockett's last stand at the Alamo ring any bells?
And do you remember at the drugstore in episode 3, when a walker approaches Lee, Lee knocks him in the head twice with his rifle, in effect using his rifle as a club?
And it makes sense to fight back, in any way possible.
And so if keeping yourself alive means using a rifle as a club, then so be it!
Followed by Kenny throwing Lee a rifle, and Lee subsequently uses it to defend the group, along with Lilly and Carly, whilst Kenny starts up the RV.
When they enter Savannah, Lee is holding a handgun, as well as having one tucked behind his back.
The two others who possess handguns are Kenny and Christa, which they use when the group is swarmed by walkers in the middle of the street, and Chuck gets separated from them.
And, when the mansion is besieged by a deluge of walkers, the group, including Ben if he survived Crawford, defend themselves using handguns.
And whether Kenny is stuck in the alleyway, or in the walker infested building, he is seen defending himself with a pistol.
However, if you noticed right before Lilly shoots Carly, she pulls a pistol from behind her back, meaning only one of two things.
#1:Lilly stole Carly's handgun and used it against her.
Or #2, Lilly had a handgun of her own.
If you strike something with the butt of your gun often enough or do it improperly (there is a more "proper" way to do it), it's possible to screw up the aiming alignment or damage the barrel of the gun, or mess up the magazine or the handle. That doesn't mean you can *never* do it, but there's a difference between pistol whipping/hitting something with the butt of your gun, and using it as a club. The second thing is a bad idea, unless you really don't care about the functionality of the gun afterwards.
