Lurked for a while, figured I would sign up.

I am 38 years old and live in East Texas near Hemphill. I have worked on oil rigs for the last 19 years, the last 10 of which have been overseas. Worked in Nigeria, Middle East, China, and am currently in South Korea.

I have been addicted to firearms since I was a wee lad, and have had a CHL since I turned 21. In the beginning I carried most of the time, but not always. I have changed my thought process over the years, and now I put on a holster and weapon each morning when I put on my pants, and remove the weapon when I get undressed to go to bed. If I am awake I am armed.

For years I carried a .45 ACP. Started with a Colt Defender, then carried a H&K 45C for a while. Recently my thought process has changed and I am currently carrying a Glock 31 in 357 sig.

When not shooting or reloading, I enjoy offroad vehicles and night hunting. I have a 2013 Jeep JK that I like to tinker with. At night I try to thin out the local wild hog population, using night vision and thermal. My favorite hog weapon is a 8" barrel AR in .300 BLK, running a 762SDN-6 suppressor.
