I would still have a problem with that as well. Some people just have values and taste.....some don't! Thats the problem with the world today, everything has gone to shat!! It's hard to raise a kid without sheltering them anymore!


its allways been like that, each generation is worst than the last. I know it sucks these days, but you have to live with the world as it is. Cant live in the past.



True that, it just gets worse! But I don't have to choose to accept whats going on, I can vow to make a change. Shouldn't we stand up against whats wrong sometimes? I'm not just talking about a stupid zombie pic either.

Zombies are only for video game playing, parents basement living, no girlfriend having, lazy bums! Right?

no not really, zombies are pretty cool. They can be anything and relate to everyone. fat,skinny, tall, short, smart , dumb, zombies ect.

The thought of the situtaion with zombies makes people think and i think alot of people enjoy the idea of somthing that will never happen.

I get it, it's a trending novelty. It will play out soon enough. But seriously, I would have a problem with living next door to that truck, right or wrong!

you can have a problem with it, its ok. You can have a problem with a neighbor leaving his trash out a day early. it really doesnt matter, unless you tell your neighbor and he romoves it for you and changes his whole company. but im guessing the neighbor isnt doing that.

Zombies have been popular forever. its just now people are marketing them alittle more due to the popularity.

What is with the Zombie stuff? Things like this are passing fads, what is going to take, to take all that stuff off in a year or so, when the zombie fad is over with?

I wouldn't go with it, save your money.

You'll need a lift kit, some wheels, and big tires to complete the look.

If your target audience is 12-19 year olds I suppose that's true.
But IMO you are automatically turning off a huge part of your potential customer base also who simply think it is dumb.

And us older guys tend to have a few more C-notes in our pocket to spend on guns,ammo, and such. Just sayin'...

I picture me walking into your place with a bunch of loud,young dudes hanging around loud-talking and high-fiving about killing Zombies and the latest video game coming out. Not for me....

It is over the top but I like it.

Hell some people are afraid of clowns, kids get used to what they grow up with. Zombies are everywhere and fun and "make believe."

Nagalus maybe you didnt see all of the threads on here when Zombie Max ammo came out. He is reaching his target audience.

Why do you think they came out with zombie ammo? The market is strong and it sells.

zombie thing is just a huge fad, everyone likes the ammo because its funny, memorabilia and it doesnt change the appearance of your gun but every crazy COD player that doesnt educate themselves on whats necessary wants their gun to be a zombie killer... zombies are already not as popular as they were when the Z-MAX ammo came out, i do have to agree with Jskin though wouldnt want that anywhere near my kids, house etc. looks like something for a Haloween costume store

Just because they came out with it doesn't mean it will sell. Lots of things have been hyped to sell but didn't. I've never seen anyone buy it. Seen people pick it up to take a look but I think most self respecting men would be embarassed to actually take it the counter. Now the 18-24 crowd is a different story.

Why do we assume the zombie market is strong. Is it because you see more paper zombie targets in the stores now. I think the current administration is the reason we have seen a spike in AR sales and the whole tacticool movement, not the zombie fad. Are there more zombie movies now, probably not!

I don't play video games loco, maybe the zombie games are more popular now.

So it may not be for everyone, heck it may not be for you. Someone is gonna think it's cool and it's going to help sell something to someone. Niche market or not, it's advertising. Money is green, as long as it's legal it doesn't matter whom it comes from in a free market. Good luck with it!

We I guess you arent into it thats fine. But for those non self respectiong males that do purchase it see it for what it really is. A novelty item. And actually a fine round with a funny package. Thats it.

I went to the range the other day with a friend of mine and all they had where Zombie targets and the old guys were having a blast. It has nothing to do with age.

So 1-11 year olds will be scared of me or my truck and as a result will piss off their dads but only if they live in the house next door to mine, the 12-19 year olds are my target audience but are too poor to buy anything from me(and too young in some cases), 18-24 year olds are very loud, like to give high fives and will buy my stuff but very little of it because they don't have much coin like the self respecting men do, and 25 and up are just not interested in Zombie stuff and will keep walking. Did I miss anything? I could just change it to Sheeple gun and supply and put a nice cuddly sheep on the side of the truck, you know to comfort the neighbor's kids and to blend in of coarse. When it comes to business you never want to stand out or be noticed that is marketing 101.
