Howdy here from Friendswood, new member.

40s
male
married
kids
plinking rifles and a 9mm
no CHL (yet)

I've been joining several forums to see if anyone else in the Houston area might be interested in going in on a group buy on a particular brand of safe.

Is it within appropriate forum etiquette to start a thread about this? I have actually already posted about it in another forum, and could link to that. Either way, thanks, and glad to be here!

Just found the site, and wanted to be an active contributor. Since I am heavily involved in the self defense industry, I understand the importance of getting good and reliable information out to others. If there is anything I can be assistance of, please feel free to check me out. Simply google Combative Weapon Solutions and once I reach the minimum posts, I plan to start letting people know about upcoming events and projects. Stay safe.

I guess I missed this sticky!

My family moved to Texas from New Mexico in October last year. We are proud to call Texas home! :txflag:

We relocated to the Denton County area north of DFW
My wife and I are in our 30s
We have a beautiful 2 year old daughter, and another on the way
I am an Internal Auditor in the healthcare industry
Love outdoors including hunting, fishing, camping, and of course, shooting
I'm also a big tech nerd, having spend 10 years in IT before getting my CPA and moving to financial and internal audit

I am anxious to get my card in the mail but I am still waiting for my status to update to something other than "waiting on documents".

Looks like this is a great community!
