Wow. a note from the big boss .. I am honored!! Yes, sir with some much practice in the house, I quit checking if I can spot my carry!! The only problem is I'm already used to carrying in the house and taking it off when I leave.. Got to do a reverse procedure now!!BTW, Chas check with your secretaty on Monday or Tuesday regarding an 8x11 envelope from Dallas Athletic Club. Please tell her/him it's not junk mail.. You have a good day, sir!!

AggieMM,

dubya wrote:Hello Reysc, yes I have an extra h on one site and just dubya everywhere else I believe. Do you have a different login name there? Do I remember your preference is a G26?

I have my fingers crossed for your mailman. Your status has already changed to competed and you are just waiting for delivery, correct? BTW, your posts kept me pretty entertained while I was waiting for my delivery.

Dubya,
I thought that was you hiding under the "h" .. I go by Kingsun on the other site and yes G26 is my preference and last Sunday I bought a G17 at the gunshow... As bad a shooter as I am, I figure I stick with 9mms.. Cheap practice rounds ( yes I need a lot of practice) and easier to handle. I might even have some lessons..Well, Mailman comth today and no CHL .. Hopefully tomorrow!!
