New Guy in DFW

[maxx2893]

Hey guys, new here. I was referred here by Oppo on WeaponsForum. I couldn't find a introduction section so I just put this thread here, mods feel free to move this wherever.

I am 20 now, so I plan to get my CHL in about a year. My plan right now is to carry an M&P Shield in .40 S&W. I can't wait to learn what holsters and carry positions work for y'all, tips and tricks, and what all is involved in getting your CHL.

Also, I'm used to more free, open forums, where almost anything goes. I will try to remember and follow all rules, please forgive me if I slip up sometime.

Added: A little about me (since this is an introductory), I buy and sell mining equipment for a living. I also attend college. Some of my favorite hobbies are offroading, hunting, and skeet shooting. When I go offroading, it's high speed desert style, not mudding. I either go in my truck, a 2010 Ford Raptor 6.2L, or in a trophy truck. I'm on the pit crew for our trophy truck, as well as, co-drive it. We compete in the Best in the Desert racing series.

Welcome to the forum. This is a great place to learn. I'm also from DFW, but i'm spending most of my time in Waco right now.

Thanks! I've got family in Hillsboro and Whitney, not too far from Waco

Welcome to the forum. Nice truck. I have a friend who has one and he's spent an additional 15K on adding to it!! Have a look at this thread: viewtopic.php?f=83&t=63016" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Where about in FTW are you? I'm at 377 & North Tarrant.

If you enjoy skeet in Fort Worth, checkout Fort Worth Trap and Skeet club. Spring leagues start in just a few weeks.

And welcome to DFW!

Welcome to the forum. You'll learn a lot from the folks here. They're all great people. I hail from the Houston area but I'm visiting my daughte and son in law in Mansfield at the moment, so not so far away. Good luck on the CHL.

Thanks! I'll check it out.

Is he on Ford Raptor Forum? If so, there's a good chance I know him, or know of him. A pretty good size group of us get together for lunch once a month or so. Also have him check out this page, it's a giant run about 3 hours from the Metroplex. http://info.texasraptorrun.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I'm down south of 20 and east of 35. Off 1187

Thank you, You really aren't far away. I'm actually in the Rendon area, just about a mile or so from Alpine Gun Range.

I think he's going to that run. His name is Mike and I know that he stays active in the off-roading community. I'll ask him what is screen name is and pass along. Been trying to get him to come over here as well. I think he's going to after his next meet.

Nice, I've seen some pretty sweet modified Raptor's. I'm up at Rock & Roll Offroad pretty often, up on 820.

Welcome to the forum! I'm on the north end of FW in NRH. Enjoy your time here, and let me know if you need anyone to finance that mining equipment. I'm in commercial equipment financing.
