Apparently, they do get people to shooting.

We've got a match coming up next month that I tried to get a friend from work to shoot with me. The match is an all day event with over $40,000 on the prize table. Every shooter will go home with their entry fee in prize table stuff, at least. I asked several times for my friend to sign up and he wasn't ever interested.

But he did sign up for a zombie shoot. He's paying nearly the same fee to shoot at exploding zombie heads and scary looking targets for two hours.

So apparently, the zombie craze is a motivator to get people shooting. I don't get it, but he's genuinely excited about it and I'm excited for him. He even (gasp) went to a range and practiced this week.

I'd always heard folks say that zombies got non-shooters shooting, but had never witnessed it.

I am against anything that attracts more shooters.


Travis

You're against gophers?

Sick bastid.

You shut up.

While you we're off gallivanting around on vacation I had to handle Pistolero business all by myself.

No seriously. No more. The sport has reached capacity.


Travis

Exactly! My AO overrun wif dipshits open-carrying Walther 99Qs, waitin in lines for .22 LR @ Wally Whirl. Talkin trash about double-taps, Constitution and Barry Gone Wild. Frickin' Newby Poseurs!

Travis is just pissed of cause his N-Farme 10mm ain't got enough velocity for killin Zombies!
I'd give $500 for that worthless POS handgun with taped on orange grips and all

Well for some more exciting news along those lines, the new issue of Zombie Nation is out. Don't know yet if it will live up to the first one.

I've always been a zombie movie fan. But this zombie craze in the shooting sports is getting old.

Mindset and attitude with create the action and reaction....
the bloodline of retail....

Do they use Hornady's ZOMBIE MAX ammo?

They're yellow...


Travis

With them being yellow I'll go $505.

Has a Bowen rear sight too...

That's gotta be worth at least 6 bucks.



Travis

Was that ballistic duct tape on them? How can you put a price on that?

After I ordered them, I set them on the counter. My lab found them and used them for a chew toy.

I had to improvise, but they're quite comfy.


Travis

I'm surprised you didn't use blue tape.....

Blue tape scares the deer

I think it's appealing to young people. I think it also serves as a good justification for the closet wannabe gun owners moving in PC circles to justify owning a gun. "It's just for zombies, really."

I fail to see how its really any different than cowboy action shooting. Its an excuse for people to have fun nothing more nothing less

Yes, but it is interesting to see the media's effect on everything.

The same can be said for the cowboy game. Look at all the weaterns from the fifties and sixties. Nothing wrong with it and it looks like fun

Shooting zombies is fun. Just before you pull the trigger holler out:

"Hey amigo! How about a little Glock-a-moley? "

Zombieitus is contagious. We've got zombie turtles in our pond now. Hollowpoints are a must! Need to explode the fuggin bastids.

Contrary to Flave, the more shooters the merrier. More great prices on rare guns when they sell em!!!!!

jwp is a wise man.


Travis

Nah, .44 250gr Keith @ 1000 or so is instant death (redeath?). Or so I've heard
