Re: Introduce yourself

Whoops, didn't see this introduction area - I just lurked a little and dove in. Hope that wasn't taken the wrong way.

I'm 59, seems more like 29, I'm very slow in competitive shooting but my accuracy isn't quite so bad. Broadsides of barns should quiver at my near approach, and I believe given a bass fiddle I could hit most any bull in the butt if he would stand still and pose.

I shoot a Colt Series 70 Government Model I've had since about 1977, and we have a working arrangement. I don't claim expertise. She hits the targets if I just sort of hook the reins on the front sight and let her do her work.

During the week, I'm a Unix admin wishing I were out on a lake. Weekends, I'm a Unix admin wishing I were at the range.

It's a life, but I'd trade it for more sailing and shooting.

And all the time I'm a Unix admin with deep respect for freedom, America, and our best ideals.

I appreciate your hospitality here. Nice place.
