Where to find it 52

Chance that one piece of furniture has at least one, with loot set to Normal (for zombies, vehicles and bags: per zombie, per vehicle part or per bag). Your game's loot settings raise or lower it and the best places stay the same, except for the loose clutter some furniture comes with, which those settings don't touch.
