My favorite quote from the article: " Since 1968, more Americans have died from gunfire than have died in all our wars put together. "

Best of luck to them, Their location is about a 7 minute drive from Gun For Hire so I hope they do something to differentiate themselves.

Thanks bry@n. PM sent.

There's at least two of us. I don't mind the finger grooves...

Yeah, while it seems crappy that they're focusing on gun sites, it's their prerogative to do so. Facebook was doing something similar a few years ago which lead to several gun folks to diversify. hickok45 has his videos on full30.com, youtube, and Facebook. He's also sponsored by Federal ammo and Bud's Gun Shop, do the de-monitization probably didn't hurt him as bad as some others.

Thanks all for the continued info/updates. Definitely keep them coming. The earliest I could pull the trigger would be the end of October/early November so I may wait for some holiday sales (if they exist). Hornady has a coupon for 500 free bullets that expires at the end of the year, so I definitely have to get it before then. Thanks!

Thanks both. The neighbor in question is about 5 doors away so I don't think I have to worry. Thanks!

Probably over-thinking, but is there any concern carpooling to the range with someone, or do we have to travel in separate cars? My neighbor and I both have our own guns, ammo, permits, etc, so is there anything wrong with us throwing everything on one vehicle and carpooling? I've gone to the range with friends before, but it was always with just my gun and ammo in my car. Thanks.

Not right now, but I'm sure I'll have plenty after I get it!

Thanks all for the input. Red vs Blue is a lot like Glock vs Sig IMO. I've looked around a lot and spoken to a bunch of different people, and at the end of the day I think the Hornady will be a good fit for me.

That's kind of where I'm leaning. One-stop shopping and free delivery. I believe Hornady is running a promotion for 500 bullets as well, so I'll see if I can find their coupon as well. I may have to make a trip to Cabela's anyway to look for powder and primers unless there's something closer (though I enjoy the excuse to browse Cabela's). Thanks 10X!! I actually am a member, so thanks for the reminder!

After several months searching/reading online and talking to different folks at the ranges, I've pretty much decided that I'm going to buy a Hornady Lock n Load progressive press. My decision point now is where to buy it. I can get it from Amazon with free shipping - https://www.amazon.com/Hornady-Lock-Auto-Progressive-Reloading-Press/dp/B000PD01NS or I can make the drive to Cabelas (same price) and pick it up there, but I didn't know if there was a better place that's more local to north Jersey. Any recommendations?

Wow. 60 ports at 25 yards?!?!?!?!?!? That's a great way to eliminate long waiting lines!!!!!

We'll see what happens when they're open, but it looks like the 279/year means that you pay 20/hr. "We are still working on some other membership options". So if you only go to the range twice a month that's almost $500 more a year on top of the membership fee.

Are you the owner?

Is that a store or someone running a business out of their house?

I think the 1911 is a good/logical choice. Meets you needs for a different caliber, different feel while still being big enough.

As someone who was born after the riots (only by a few years), it's hard to imagine violence/rioting of that scale happening today. Not sure if race relations are better or if the economy is better, but I hope rioting like that is a thing of the past.

Hickok45 puts some rounds through one...

Wow! Sorry to hear that. Maybe I was lucky and got some "good" ones.

I have a few Promag 10 round magazines that work well in my Mini 14. I get them when they go on sale and I have free shipping codes at Midway: https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1506105115/promag-magazine-ruger-mini-14-223-remington-steel

LOL!! Unfortunately there's no effective criteria to weed out the kind of stupidity that led to that shooting...

I agree. Senseless. Grown men fighting for YEARS over stuff that doesn't matter at all. Ego and the need to be "right" lead both to the point where common sense and judgement flew out the window. All the media will show is guns, guns, guns.

At :53 in the video clip (as soon as the reversing mower comes into view) you can see angry-man reach into his right pocket and pull out the pistol, so it's in his hand pretty much as soon as he re-enters while riding in reverse. Firefighter doesn't seem to notice until a few seconds later when angry-man raises/brandishes the pistol, so he definitely had the drop on firefighter.

The camera appears to be there because of the history of angst/stupidity with the fence.
