Re: Introduce yourself
Hello, Everyone,
I have browsed this site for more than a year now while contemplating, more like procrastinating, getting my CHL. This site is a wealth of information for anyone interested in CHL here in Texas. Thank you, Charles, for creating this most useful community.
For a couple of years now, my wife and I have discussed getting our CHLs. We hope to take the class within the next month at a nearby range. We have enjoyed shooting both longarms and handguns over the years, so have a good degree of familiarity with firearms. Each of us is a strong proponent of individual responsibility and the freedoms our forefathers recognized in the US Constitution, particularly the 2A as guarantor of the other freedoms. Recognizing that often "law enforcement officers are minutes away when seconds count", we want to join the ranks of CHL holders to help ensure our personal pursuit of life, liberty and happiness.
Our general locale is the Spring-Woodlands area.
Age: mid fourties
Gender: Male
Profession: Finance Analyst
Marital Status: Married 22 years to same woman
Children: 2 girls (one at home and one off at school)
Pets/Livestock: many different (individuals and species)
Years CHL: N/A; soon to take class
Carry Guns/Equipment: tbd; likely mousegun/compact 9 for EDC.
From the threads I have enjoyed reading, the community here is generally polite, thoughtful, supportive and thorough, as befits general subject matter with life and death consequences. I hope all my future comments meet this same standard.
God Bless,
Russ
