Thanks for all the comments! I just couldn't wait to get my Monte. I've been using Benelli's for years at work, M1 Super 90's, and after a few armorer schools, I knew one day I would own a Benelli. And as far as 40 being old and the start of my mid-life crisis, well, i guess its kinda like having your cup either half full or half empty. The second half of my life is just getting started!!!
