Anyone else get the Brownells Zombie Alert E mail?

[Rule3]

Really sad that a top notch company like Brownells has to resort to really stupid, tacky video e mail like this.

Now that is just plain pathetic.

I just hit delete. Should I go and read it?

I guess they must see market potential, as annoying as it might be. Brownells Search : Search Results for "Zombie" - World's Largest Supplier of Firearm Accessories, Gun Parts and Gunsmithing Tools - BROWNELLS

Pity though, I've always held them in high regard. Doesn't mean I won't deal with them as they've always filled the bill with great products.

Hobie btw I haven't gotten that e-mail yet and I've done business with them recently.

Sad thing is that they could have had better footage. Have you been watching the "Occupy" crowds? Talk about your zombies.....

 

[redlevel]

I thought it was funny. Y'all just ain't got no sense-a-yuma.

 

[thndrchiken]

Yep I got it, I agree it's pathetic. Seems like they are trying to change their marketing strategy to cater to teens.

...I didn't realize zombies could talk

[longranger]

Yup, I got one too,as soon as I saw the subject I deleted it.I assumed they were refering to the Wall St. morons.

 

[Rule3]

I just sent them a reply indicating my thoughts.

I find it pathetic, tasteless and so out of character for such a top notch professional company. Just does not seem to fit their image IMHO.

I just deleted the email w/o looking at it.
Sounds like I didn't miss anything.

I haven't bought much from them in quite a few years.
It's probably a case of my interests staying the same and everyone else moving on!

I saw it... being undead may be an improvement for the pierced and inked one. Did he have room for more of either adornment?? If they are typical real world Zombie outbreak survivors, we are hurting...

On another note... season two of 'The Walking Dead' on AMC begins Sunday night...

It is Halloween month... Brownell's is still a neat vendor - with nice folks.

I just deleted it with out opening it.

 

[venomballistics]

I say ... outstanding.
while it sits a little strange this time around, Halloween is almost a natural for firearm industry marketing exploitation

Halloween,I guess when you put it that way.

Halloween,I guess Josh thinks it's every day.

 

[chief38]

Yea, I got it too. I guess they are feeling the terrible economy as well, and just had a desperate moment.

 

[Reloader]

It's close to Halloween...it's meant as humor!

 

[2fingers]

How about the "Zombie Max" ammo from Hornady? Two well respected businesses resorting to **** like this!

 

[venomballistics]

why not ... we coined the term zombie gun. Might be kinda fun if ranges organized zombie shoots to give purpose to those arms we just couldnt justify any other way
