A way to run this with less prop expenditure would be to invite players to buy and bring their own Nerf guns if they wanted an edge in the game - these would represent the hardcore survivalists who were prepared for the zombie apocalypse. You could probably get by with just one game-property gun, in case nobody felt like bringing their own.
(And you could bulk the armoury out with some cheap Shaun of the Dead type weapons, in soft foam rubber - one-shot blunt instruments which you have to drop when you hit a zombie with them.)
Glow in the dark ammo might be good for post-game cleanup, and for making hits and misses clearer. I assume you can convert your own ammunition with a bit of phosphorescent paint, though.
