The guns: Beretta 96FS (Vertec), H&K USP .45, Springfield XD45, Kimber Ultra Carry II, H&K P2000SK. Carry wise; Kimber in warmer weather, P2000SK in colder. The others are just kind of wants, although I'll probably be getting rid of the Springfield to ante up for a Dan Wesson RZ-10 just to have a big-bore fun gun.

Anything else? Just ask....down to earth guy, sarcastic but good hearted. Technical, a little bit of an electronics geek. Traditional, family guy, good values. Expecting my first child in June, W00T!!!!



Welcome BC,

I like your choice of weapons!

Congratulations on the start of your new family, and welcome to Texas.

A big welcome to the others who have joined here recently as well!
