Bonus - Silver .30-06 Bullets

Before he heads up to The Colony, Chris stops by a bookstore that he and Terri Fisher (Belinda Balaski) had visited earlier in the film, where he picks up a box of .30-06 bullets that the store owner Walter Paisley (Dick Miller) had special ordered for another customer.

Paisley shows off the box of silver bullets, explaining how the original buyer was unable to pay, leaving him with a box of expensive, impractical ammo that he can't seem to sell.
