Zombie Nation magazine
 
I was browsing around in a Books-A-Million in Daytona Beach during my lunch break today and stumbled across this in the Guns/Hunting section of the newsstand.....

I thought it was a joke and thumbed threw it for a few minutes turns out that it is not there where even adds for "Zombie Killing" rounds from actual ammunition makers as well as adds for various accessories for your zombie apocalypse weapon of choice and the adds where targeted towards " the zombie apocalypse is coming" types... think that I am joking? This magazine is published by Guns&Ammo and even has a web page:
http://www.gunsandammo.com/shooting/...zombie-nation/

I am sure that the companies that have their weapons featured and the publishers know it is a fantasy but there are people out there stupid enough to actually that a zombie invasion or apocalypse or what ever you want to call it is a real possibility and it is kind of sad that companies stoop to the low of actually playing along.

One way that you tell the whole thing is a money grab on the part of the publisher and those that advertise is that they actually recommend a Kel-Tec firearm.

"Hey you stupid idiot buy this really expensive gun with a bunch of expensive crap with ammo "designed to kill zombies"(what does it some how disable the brain :har:) while we laugh all the way to the bank.


EDIT: it gets better check out the XPS2 Zombie Stopper
