If you live in South Jersey or buy from Gunbroker, be careful of doing any business with County Sports LLC in Salem county.
One of my readers sent me the transcripts of their sale and interaction with County Sports, and all I can say is that I am appalled.
My reader bought a thousand rounds, and asked to confirm a pick up time for the ammo.
No response from County Sports.
The reader was then exposed to Coronavirus and was going to be on quarantine for at least 14 days. They messaged County Sports multiple times with no response.
County Sports then opened a ticket saying they couldn’t ship, and cancelled the sale, and then immediately relisted the item at a huge price hike.
Country Sports won’t respond to requests for information and doesn’t appear to be an honest business.
The zombies have risen. Humanity has been decimated. The remaining survivors are trying to scrounge supplies and survive, all while the zombies are evolving, becoming more than just mindless beasts.
Land of The Dead opens with a supply run, which starts strong. There are guns, zombies, and good acting. My one pet peeve is the obligatory scene where one of the scavengers gets bit. This is the end of the world. Why isn’t everyone wearing leather motorcycle jackets, pants, and gloves? It would give you that last bit of protection you need against those surprise zombie bites.
What is left of humanity lives in Pittsburgh. It’s protected on two sides by rivers. While the Allegheny River and Monongahela Riverprotect cover two thirds of the triangle, the rest is guarded and fenced off.
Tactical Pittsburgh Map
Inside the city there are clearly two societies. The rich party and enjoy safety while the poor are forced to live in poverty and protect the city. While the rich enjoy a life of privilege and the poor protect them, the zombies are beginning to understand simple concepts and feel emotions other than just hunger.
An angry, hungry, zombie is much more dangerous than a dumb hungry zombie. Combine that with internal politics as the survivors fight for power, and you have a city that is about to be in big trouble.
Land of The Dead has great actors, special effects, and a plot that moves along well. it goes beyond the classic zombies and gives the undead some ability to think and feel, but it was well done. Land of The Dead is Worth Your Time and scored a 94/100.
The opening scene of Day of the Dead is something I’ve had stuck in my brain from the very first time I saw it. The streets are deserted, and the remaining survivors are desperate to find others like them, living, breathing, people. But the only people left to respond are the dead, and they come in droves.
So many, so loud, their helicopter pilot can hear it over the engines.
Such an epic way to set the stage. The world has ended.
A small number of survivors has holed up at a military base, but their moral is declining, and the zombies at the fences just keep growing in numbers.
Inside the compound, which appears to be an old mine turned into a military base, the soldiers are on edge, and the doctor is trying to find a solution, whatever that solution is.
Sarah played by Lori Cardille, really carries the movie and its flow. She’s both strong and resolute, and her acting is just top notch.
The crazed doctor, Logan, played by Richard Liberty, is experimenting with the zombies, which is also creating friction with the soldiers.
Equipment is falling apart, and supplies are running out, and that is driving all of them to the brink. In order to try and make progress, more undead need to be captured for the doctor, and every time they harvest more zombies, there is more risk.
This is a classic Zombie Movie that many others have tried to mimic and which is well worth your time. Day of the Dead scores a 77/100. What took a few points off? Two main factors, the first was the length of time the story runs before we see some real zombie violence. Its a great story, and Sarah carries it well, but there is a almost an hour of lead up to the zombie carnage, and that is a bit too much. The second is the crazed doctor. Too much time was spent on the crazed doctor and the zombie anatomy. Don’t get me wrong, this is a Must See movie, but I’m also watching it for like the 10th time as I’m writing this review, and that might be hurting the score a little.
Look how just the edge of that buttstock is on her shoulder. What was the owner of that firearm expecting. This is how you remove any interest she may have had in shooting.
I was a little kid the first time I watched Dawn of the Dead. My older brother thought it would “toughen me up” as he puts it. Yes, he’s got that old school way of thinking when it comes to kids.
Back when I couldn’t really appreciate how well done Dawn of the Dead was, I was too busy trying not to scream. It really is the archetype of zombie movies, and everyone who works on zombie related media should be forced to watch this. Literally, forced to watch this. Hold their eyes open until they memorize the pattern.
The zombie apocalypse starts and rages through humanity. The group struggles to survive, and are smart about how they go about trying to live just a little bit longer.
Dawn of the Dead earned itself a 100/100 on so many levels. If you haven’t watched it recently, put it on your short list, you won’t regret it.
My one bit of advice is to just watch the old cut. I watched the old, some new, and some modified to make them 3D. In my opinion the gold old standard definition cut holds up the best. This movie isn’t about gimmicks or CGI, and the old school cut shows off the movie the best as far as I am concerned.
My youngest son and I went to the range today and enjoyed an hour and a half of target practice, and we shot the M&P .22LR, Smith & Wesson Model 64, and the CZ 75 SP-01.
I went a little crazy with the M&P and we used a brick of .22LR between the two of us. My personal goal was to clean out the center of my target, and I think I did a decent job.
I did use two clips of 9mm as well, but I mostly stuck with the M&P today, because there is something to be said for cheap ammo, and I just picked up 3,250 rounds to have fun with.

My son alternated between the CZ and Smith & Wesson. When the zombie apocalypse starts, he’s going to be a huge asset to whomever is around him for sure.
Every time we go shooting the wheel gun is always the one we run out of ammo for.

This really is one of my favorites. Pulling back the hammer forces me to pause - which usually helps my aim.

The .38 is clearly a fun gun to shoot. Everyone was waiting to shoot it and I only brought three boxes of ammo for it - and they went quick.

Everyone loves the semi autos but for some reason they always keep reaching for the wheel gun too. There is just something about pulling back the hammer and firing with a good wheel gun.

My brother went through all my 38 ammo! But it was worth it, he was hitting the target much better with the revolver. I don't think he likes the sites on my CZ or Glock.
I love it when I can make it to the range on a workday. There is something nice about having the whole range to yourself. I brought my S&W Model 64 and my Glock 23, and 100 rounds for each.
I love my S&W Model 64, and always have a great time shooting it. After my first twelve shots I already had one bullseye at 5 yards, and these are Birchwood Casey 6 Inch Targets, so all the hits would be head shots (if we were hunting zombies.
Model 64 Target
When it comes to the Glock 23 I am really trying to learn to love this weapon. It isn’t one I really “chose”. A buddy was in need and wanted to sell it, so I bought it from him. I put 100 rounds through it today, but just can’t get a grip that I like, which is one of the reasons I think my aim was a little out of wack.
My aim with the Glock is low and to the left, but the gun’s frame just wants to bite into my middle finger of my shooting hand where it wants to rub against the trigger guard. I think I’m trying to put too much hand on the grip, but its just feels so small in my hands. I think I can improve my comfort and aim if I bought some Grip Extenders, so I ordered some when I got home from the range. I’ll let you know how it goes once I install them and try them at the range.
I really want to enjoy shooting the Glock 23, I’m just not there yet.
When I was all done I swept up my brass, took down my targets, and happened to notice that the stand I was using was floppy. This wasn’t from me, but I did find it interesting to see how much of that two by three was blown out.

After figuring out how to sight with this it was fun to shoot.

The thing I'm starting to love about this Glock is how clean it shoots - and how easy it is to clean - because it doesn't seem to get that dirty.

My youngest was funny when he was shooting this . I don't really feel the difference between the .40 and the 9mm, but he said he can really tell the difference.

My buddy is going through a divorce and needed some cash. So I got a very nice gun that had barely any rounds down the barrel for half the retail price.
