I am married (20 years this coming July) and have one son who just turned 18 a few days ago. I'm a Christian, a guitar player (44 years now), and I play in my church's worship band. I've recently picked up hunting as a hobby, but I've been a rifle shooter for years and enjoy my trips to the range. I am, among other things, a web programmer, and I'm involved in several other gun-related discussion boards, including the friendliest one in Texas (where I am the webmaster) - huntingtexasonline.com - as well as a political discussion board that I've owned for years at annoyedman.com.

Hello, found this forum two days ago and have been reading ever since. Great information here! Thanks to who ever started it.

57
male
retired (disabled)
married 20 yrs
CHL from the start (also had tactical pistol training and grew up with guns)
I now carry a Glock md22 (40 cal.) in a blackhawk serpa on the belt. Used to carry with paddle but it would eat my underware and made me sweat.
I like the belt a lot better.
Used to carry Colt 1911 45ACP and I love the gun but got the Glock because of high capacity. After having shot it for a while I want another one now.
Had my FFL for 8yrs because I wanted to be a gunsmith. ATF gave me so much grief I let it go. They tried twice to entrap me but thats another story.

Great Forum! Keep up the good work and Thanks!

An environmentalist, but only in a conservative, libertarian way.

Welcome! Glad to see another lawyer on board (is that three, or four?)

I like your choice of politicians and authors, too. I received The Probability Broach for my last birthday.
