Define “toy.” And am I the only one who’s all zombied-out? Brownell’s Center for Zombie Awareness? I know it’s the run up to Halloween and all, but as they say in New York, geddowdaheah. Meanwhile, here’s the rundown:

HORN Z-Max “Zombie Max” 12ga 00              10pk   86247
HORN Z-Max “Zombie Max” 223 55gr             20pk 83271
HORN Z-Max “Zombie Max” 7.62×39 123gr    20pk 80782
HORN Z-Max “Zombie Max” 308Win 168gr   20pk 80962
HORN Z-Max “Zombie Max” 9mm  115gr         25pk 90288
HORN Z-Max “Zombie Max” 40S&W  165gr    20pk 91342
HORN Z-Max “Zombie Max” 45ACP  185gr     20pk 90902

MSRP-wise, I’ve got $22.62 on the 9mm, $25.91 on the 40 and $27.15 on the 45acp.

Say what you want,....but I got a new tin-foil hat, :P  methinks, a box or two will be my Halloween treat.. ::)

Can't be too careful... ;D
Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

That's awesome.

I ran my first multi-gun match last Saturday (dang, but that's a bunch of work).   Here's the stage and scenario:
__________________________________________

BCSC Tactical Match
Stage:  “B-R-A-I-N-S!!”

Scenario:
It’s finally happened.  A mutated strain of Pediculosis pubis is causing zombie-like symptoms in those bitten after 4 hours...but doctors have an antidote if you can get there in time.  Your best buddy has just been bitten and has passed out.  You must carry/drag him to the aid station, clearing the way with your handgun. Once you drop him off there, you see other zombies on their way.  These are the Type II...fast, scary and on the hunt.  You find a rifle, a few mags and go join the fight.  Remember, the only way to kill a zombie is…shoot ‘em in the head.
 
Course of Fire:  
Stage begins at P1, standing, hands at sides, holstered handgun loaded to regulation capacity, additional magazines on body.   Rifle is staged at P2, empty, mag loaded with 5 rounds next to it.  Additional full rifle magazines on body or at P2.
  
Remember: At least one shot must be to the head on all targets.  At the buzzer, engage with handgun T1-T2 with at least 2 shots each, tactical sequence.  Pick up dummy and carry / drag from P1 to P2, engaging T3-T7 with at least 2 shots, on the move, strong side only, tactical priority.  Drop off dummy at P2, engage T8 (who is feasting on a doctor) with at least 2 shots.  Empty remaining rounds into T8 to slide lock / empty.  Stage empty handgun on top of barrel at P2, muzzle downrange.  Pick up rifle, load with 5-round mag, move to P3 and engage T9-10 with at least 2 rounds each.  Reload and advance, engaging T11-T16 with at least 2 shots each, avoiding no-shoots, any sequence (do NOT break 180 rule).  

Scoring:  Vickers Count, all targets must have at least one head shot, otherwise targets will be scored with a miss.

Minimum Round Count:  16 rifle, 16 pistol

Set-Up Notes: 19 IDPA targets, 1 barrel, 1 dummy

Hard cover to be incorporated in T3-T7 and T9-T16.  T3-T8 should be < 3yd shots.  RSO to confirm handgun is empty at P2 before picking up rifle, must not allow shooter to reholster handgun until stage is complete.  Watch 180 deg rule at T9-T16.

Cute until they had the disclaimer at the end.

Zombies are the ideal "PC" target group.  

There are very few of them who will pursue defamation through legal channels and any bleeding hearts who take up there cause would be laughed at.

Meanwhile, they are real human, if gruesome, images to use on targets and even objecting to putting cross hairs over them is laughable.  

They can be placed for inclusion in any scenario and everyone  will support killing them.

And it's a lot of fun...no worries about repercussions from moral issues to cloud your enjoyment  ;D ;D ;D ;D
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster
