Any update on Monroe ranges?
Would be cool to have another range or two, absolutely. Amazed so many issues. Maybe some money issues as well? The good thing both of these ranges are doing though is they are the owners of their own buildings, and not leasing out the space.

Those VZ? grips on the right look awesome, perfectly match the stainless finish.

Reloading Help
Lesson #1. You will not save money by reloading.... in fact you will be shooting more and spending more. You will however save money per round. =) Pistol? Rifle? Eventually most folks end up getting a progressive in the color of your choice, Hornady Red, Dillon Blue, etc. I personally have a Hornady Lock n Load AP and quite happy with it. A fully progressive may be overkill for someone doing just rifle and there are more things you need to watch for as everything happens at nearly the same time. One idea is to go with a turret press, like the Lee Classic turret that will give you an in between option, faster than single stage, but still easier control as you are working on one round at a time.

That long slide PPQ is cool. Not super excited about the excessive, slightly gaudy slide cuts.

Any NJ limitations when using gunbroker or armslist?
Have never done anything with armslist but am amazed so many bad stories from this thread. Seems like craigslist for guns. I have sold and bought on gunbroker. No issues selling and still stay in touch with one buyer of a Kimber rifle. Buying, you have the issue that you cannot inspect the rifle before you buy it. Pictures are all good and all, but does not beat an in person inspection. Hence why, given the choice, will buy from a forum member or a vendor first. This way you can actually look at the gun.

I know a few have tried, on a smaller scale. Anthony at @gunforhire has done similar classes in the past and may do so now as well?

Gun Slowdown
They were spun off, so had to get a new name. I think you are confusing Vista with Smith Wesson name change to America Outdoor Brands, which is such a stupid freaking name.

Do you want him to watch your kid? I guess it is better than him fondling your kid while you watch some guns. lol.

Z06 vs Guns!
So in that case.... 95% of my guns are useless. =P Here is the things, guns are collectibles as well and to some, you can just appreciate it by looking at it, or knowing the history. Yes, you can say the same about a car.... but how long is it going to be before a new Glock 19, M&P Shield or an AR-15 becomes "historic" and collectible? And again, how often are you actually going to drive the thing? Is it a full time daily driver? If not, it is almost like a jet ski..... and you can't compare it to a classic fbody, mustang, goat. It will get there at some point... but not in the next 30 years. lol. I love the C7's and I rent one any time I have a chance while on a trip.... I had a blast renting one for two days, driving it from Orlando airport down to FLL and then back, hitting triple digits on the Florida pike at times. I also enjoyed having a C63 AMG blasting around Vegas during shot show a few years ago, a porsche cayman in Fernandina Beach, and others. Cars are an expense, so my daily driver is either a cheap new BMW 320 or wifey's Volvo s60 t6 (a blast), and whatever I would spend on a "toy", I just rent whenever I can. cheaper, don't have to insure and you can really beat on it, and come out way ahead. TLDR, it is an expense, if it is worth it to you, do it. Do you want to spend $1k a month to insure/maintain/pay for the vette?

Z06 vs Guns!
Well, to state the obvious.... Guns are an asset, that usually goes up in value over time. Cars... well you know the deal. Although who would ever imagine third generation mullet machines going up in price (Turd gens F-bodies are now collectible, wow). I think a C7 is still a long far away from being a collectible and has plenty more to drop. How often are you actually going to drive it? Will it be a daily driver or a track day car? If track day, how often are you actually going to use it? My brother bought a new c6 Z06 but seldom actually drove it, especially in jersey weather. the alternative is... borrow one or rent one every few months to your hearts content. In the mean time, get the GM credit card and start earning those points towards a GM. Start shopping and wait for someone who Needs to sell theirs and snap it up. We are bound to have a recession in the near future and those are the first toys to go. Another alternative, join a car club (where you buy a membership and can use the clubs cars x amount of days). TLDR, Cars are depreciating asset, I would keep guns, rent or borrow a C7 a few times a year for track days and still come out ahead.

Daily humor thread
Saw this one on Reddit. A priest and a Rabbi are very good friends, so they decide to go to a remote lake for a swim. Of course they're swimming naked as you do. All of a sudden, two busses pull up. Out of one pours the rabbis congregation and out of the other pours the priests congregation. Their clothes are on the other side of the lake so they don't have time to retrieve them, they just have to make a run for it. The priest, running with his hands covering his genitals looks over at the rabbi and sees him running with his hands over his face. He says, "rabbi! What are you doing!" The rabbi says, "in my community, they recognise me by my face."
