I can't say that I entirely agree. The zombies get so much vicious stuff to help them, why not let the heroes have something kick arse like that too? Not to mention, you have to remember that you only get to keep shooting as long as you kill zombies. Meaning one unlucky roll and your killing spree ends... and then you may even lose the gun. Unlucky rolls are notorious for coming up just when you really don't want them to all the time. So, odds are there won't be too many occasions where the hero is able to kill large numbers of zombies at once with this gun.

Still, I can definitely see why you feel that way. If your particular group isn't fond of it, I say go ahead and ban it. I just personally think it is balanced just fine in an expansion that is specifically more vicious in the first place.
