"Americans do not have access to a comical amount of weaponry" is a trope/oversight I really enjoy. If you're not literally in New York City then literally everyone is strapped. Even the gun control perverts who act like it's unthinkable anyone would own or need a gun are strapped. The people who claim gun statistics are misleading because guns georg owns ten thousand guns are strapped. If you're setting a movie in america then there should be problems caused by too many guns rather than a lack of guns.
Project Zomboid is a great example of this. You can immediately tell it was made by Europeans because it's set in Kentucky but every house does not contain several shotguns and hunting rifles with a few dozen rounds of ammunition.
Tremors (1990) is a great counterexample to the gun thing lol.
