Zombies are among reasons for increased gun sales

4. I would not go so far as to say people are "really enthralled", perhaps "quite amuzed"

would be more appropriate.

Hornady sells a line of ammunition called "Zombie Max", it amuzed me. Box is quite funny, and has a set to tips and suggestions on handling zombies such as tripwires, because they don't walk very well.

The targets are also hillarious, and for shits and giggles my wife and I did get one once while at the range.

It's a marketing gimmick, nothing more. With the series "The Walking Dead", also several books and movies (can't wait for Max Brook's movies) that are being released lately, it would make marketing sense to ride that wave.
