Hey liquid, I believe most people on here think the spot price is the Actual price of gold that minute in the market. Why is that insulting ? Or am missing something here. Or you're able to source gold BELOW market price ?

If anybody wants to eat my ground hogs you are welcome to have at 'em. No charge.

There is so many debatable topics listed above its futile to hash them out on the internet. However, with regard to "GFH would have to scale prices to match competition..." Has anybody been to Bullet Hole lately? I have not since WP opened. Is there still a long wait on weekends? ( If the answer is "yes, still at least an hour on Saturdays" Then ignore rest of this post.) Only asking if indeed the public is still opting to go to a cheaper range. Just because there are options does not mean a company lowers it's price to be competitive. Example: Starbucks coffee. To treat a range business as a commodity is erroneous. Notice I'm not touching the above speculation on where the profits in Anthony's business are (range vs classes). I just think Daves ascertion above that "more options means lower prices" is incorrect. I'm just basing that on I never ever saw women at the Hole and at WP I see women there in GROUPS . It's like a totally different product. If the competition is a similar facility, then yeah all bets are off. But as of now he has re-written the book and I think everybody agrees Disclaimer: I know absolutely zippo about starting a business or entrepreneurship. I'm a pencil pusher. Just seems to me like he's a winner though.

Thanks for info!! Now if I can just find my ID card. Hmmmmm

Anybody know how I can get less paper mail from NRA? Is there a preferences for my account ? I will begrudgingly accept EMAIL every single day about something they are trying to sell me, however I don't want to torture my postman. And even worse their parcel is humongous most of the time.

Can you elaborate more in the red dot and the astigmatism? I'm new to red dots. Got a Primary Arms. The dot doesn't look crisp to me. Or sometimes it does sometimes it doesn't. I thought it was just my eyes tired or me not training enough to look at it with both eyes open I wear glasses randomly if my eyes are tired. Like for example I'm writing this now with no glasses)

A good semi with target loads is like butter on the shoulder. I can do 4 rounds of trap on my Beretta and feel great the next day. I'm not saying the Lion is a beretta but if it's a decent semi the recoil is awesome. I shot an 18" M2 with buckshot and it was butter

If they call it a trap gun it better cycle light loads, no?

Yeah Gus, plus it's the internet and sarcasm is rampant. Your original question explicitly, the answer will not be found here. Jack above offers better advice. If the real premise of your question was actually a dive to try to seek a "ya see the law is impossible"... Then yes, the laws are vague. All the gun laws in NJ are vague. Maybe on purpose! It sucks but that's how a lot of legal jargon is. Laws don't state every detail (like a permanent magazine.). For example: there is no statute that states you cannot stab your mother to death with a knife. You can look real hard, but you won't find that statute. You will find a statute that says murder is illegal, and then a lawyer will say that stabbing your mother is murder. So lawmakers write laws WITHOUT all the details on purpose.

Remember, it's very simple anytime you email or talk to a Dem (and I hate to make the generalization along party lines); "why didn't anybody attempt to tackle the Fort Hood shooter while he was reloading his less-than-ten round magazine?" I think I want a bumper sticker made up for that. It's sad the Texas thing occurred but it completely tears Greenwalds basis to shreds. It's mental health not magazines.

Anybody who lives in a district where your Senator will vote yes to this bill please ask them why they think nobody tried to tackle the Fort Hood shooter while he was reloading? And better yet still....the people in the area were mlitary personnel!!! And they didn't tackle him. This makes my blood boil about Greenwalds entire premise for smaller magazines. The tackle will never happen.

Over 16 injured from a pistol that holds less than 15 rounds. Why didn't anybody tackle him on the reloads? We all know the reason why. I really hope when someone stands up to talk about the bill on the Senste floor vote they bring this up. This destroys Greenwalds entire reason for the ten round limit.

A lot of carnage from a non high capacity magazine. Hmmmmm. Mr Greenwald, Why didn't anybody tackle him while he was reloading?

After Sandy people on Long Island had no police for 7 days. They are the example of wanting to have 7 days of generator, fuel, some food and water, your guns, and battery operated motion detection lights. See my post on Mr Beams. I bought the dome light for the front steps already. I will order the "spot" lights and keep in a box and install when needed. Would only take me 30 seconds

Call me crazy but ammo is falling. It's slow but steady. And for someone here who last year said copper prices is a main driver we took out a four year low in copper prices I believe recently

I don't like being charged 2X for a bottle of wine at a restaurant either. But when you're in their house.... I think the markup on popcorn is like 7000% in a movie theater.

We'll you and I think it's stupid but it is the FOUNDATION of the Newtown mission. Just saying "it's stupid" doesn't make it go away. The myth needs to be debunked. And it never is. It was a jam right? Not a round count. The jam saved the lives not the stop to reload. But nobody brought that up in the legislature. I don't see how anybody thinks discussing how law abiding citizens will be made criminals is a more powerful argument than trying to debunk the "facts" that Greenwald presented. He keeps saying "here is the data, here are the facts". And nobody ever challenges him on that. We dodge the challenge. Okay I'm sure you guys are tired of me brining this up. I will give it a rest.

I hear ya, and agree its better than nothing, I'm just dissappointed it wasn't more. I tried calling my Senator, of course didn't get to him. Maybe someone will call me back. I'm interested in knowing if anybody really huddles up for stuff like this. Like did Carrol above talk to other republicans or was he just alone on this? Are other people involved? Do the people who vote "no" just think that's good enough? I'm very curious.

And the woman who spoke after Carroll? "Why should LEO get to carry 15 then? You got two weeks to think about objections to the bill and that's what you come up with!?!? Greenwald: "ummm duhhhh!! Because they are trained.." (As he's probably laughing "that's tje best you got?") It was not a fine day at all for our side. I'm trying to figure out a time I can talk to my Senator and figure out who runs the huddles on these speeches. We get destroyed. If you didn't hear entire days proceedings you have no idea

Did you watch the ENTIRE proceedings that day? Did you hear all of Greenwalds testimony for supporting the bill? Or just this YouTube clip? I watched the entire proceedings that day. If you did not hear Greenwald you cannot opine on this rant. It fails to address all the points the "13th bullet" foundation people stand on I wish we could have HOWARD on the floor, I feel like our message would come out better

Carroll stood up and i give him credit for that. But if i was grading debates i would give Carroll a "c" to Grrewnwalds "A". I said this in other threads. It's not good enough for our side to say "this law won't stop killing". Or "this law is only public relations". Greenwald goes up there and uses the "13th bullet" story and we never have a rebuttal for it. Howard's letter posted on Friday would have had more meat on it on the Assembly floor than of the two Republicans that spoke on that day Again, I'm not trying to miserable for the sake of it I'm just frustrated our politicians are not effectively countering the Newtown family onslaught.

So nobody has any thoughts on how to get gold in various increments? Or do they already come in increments of say $25? Again will you be handing someone $100 gold piece for one gallon of gas and say "keep the change?". I'm not trying to start a debate here about how commerce will work but I'm certainly not going to start stashing some gold if i have no plan how it will be delineated. Or is the whole idea of gold not for commerce but to like bribe someone to save a life?

The problem here is that Howard has the facts here. But i didn't hear one single Assemblyman use those against Greenwald. Our side just just tries to say "it won't make a difference". I have never heard anyone mention 30 rounds mags, I didn't hear anyone mention he tactical reloaded. We know all the facts it just never makes it to the Senate floor It's sad, it's sad that Greenwald was more prepared and sounded more convincing than the Assemblymen cross examining him. In a previous thread i asked what more can I do if my reps are already on our side. Now what I think I need to do is not just be happy about that but to make sure they can do a better job promoting our side. Yes I applaud the three reps who challenged Greewald but they were clearly not coached as well as Greenwald (I know this is where ten replies come back it wouldn't have made a difference at the vote but for crying out loud if even one rep read Howard's letter above on the floor it would be better. C'mon. So my suggestion for a mission would be to not just call your reps and say "I want you to count me as against". I want to know who on our side will be standing up to speak? This is the guy I wan to talk to to not just say "thanks man" I want to ask him "what do you plan on saying?"

Okay so what are the increments? Like if I have $100 increment nuggets how do I buy $25 worth of gas in trade? In other words what's by best "small bills" combination of it". I don't want a scenario "we don't accept $100 nuggets here"

I really need to try out more triggers. I think I'm just gonna offer rounds of ammo to guys next to me to let me try theirs.
