As a Christian, I take my faith everywhere I go, but that does not mean that I witness to every non-Christian I meet.

Company policy forbids firearms on company grounds, vehicles, or while conducting company business. I agreed to those terms for employment. I enjoy what I do and I'm good at it. I see no reason to "irritate" the pig.

As for being the man inside, I've had done some good. I was able to outfit our crew with proper body armor for their use in the sandbox. Otherwise, our company was set to purchase off the shelf concealable vests. They left with Interceptors, rifle plates, Kelvar pots, Under Armor, gloves, ballistic glasses, and hydration units.

Work is a small portion of my life; it's what I do, not who I am.

Not a Thunder Ranch grad, but worked early on with Steve Moses.

I plan to get some additional training at Tiger Valley. Been there a few times socially, and have been really impressed with the real world training that goes on there. It's also a first class long range facility. TJ knows what works on the streets from first hand experience. High round count, low bull. My kind of place. From what I've heard from his students, you'd better be in decent shape before you go. Hard work, but well worth it.

I usually don't mix my career with my views of 2nd Adm., kind of like arguing with a pig...you don't get anywhere, and you annoy the pig.

I've picked up a couple of carry guns, but never really liked compacts. I have a Springfield 9mm 1911 Ultra Compact Lightweight and a S&W 342CT. Neither one really strikes me as my cup of tea. I prefer CZ's or Glock 9mm's. In fact, I'm in the market for a G26. Miss the one I had!

Just found this forum, but I've been around firearms all of my life.

I'm 43, married with 3 kids, 4, 15, 17.

I work for the evil empire...(CBS), where I'm a producer/director.

Live in the DFW area.

Main interest has been shotguns and rifles. Truly believe that a handgun is something you use while trying to get to the shotgun or rifle you should not have put down in the first place.

I have completed beginner, intermediate, and advanced handgun classes with a few different instructors. Completed basic carbine and shotgun classes also.

Don't have a CHL yet. I've been procrastinating for many years.

I'm a member at TDSA, shoot mainly shotguns at Alpine, and pistols at The Shooter's Club or Winchester in Fort Worth.

I mainly post at ARFCOM or DFW THR.
