New member in OKC, OK

Hello,

Found this forum while trying to research one of my rifles on yahoo search. Very good news it answered my question, and I just had to join. Looking forward to learning, asking and maybe even answering some questions for other members. I consider myself a novice but have been around guns since around 12 years old so I do know a lot of the safety issues. Thanks for having me.

Hello From Oklahoma

Hello Everyone,

I'm James and I currently live in central Oklahoma. I've been shooting for as long as I can remember. My mother used to say that I cut my teeth on bullets.

I spent ten years in the US Army and it's Reserve Components as a Supply Specialist (Unit Armorer).

I have a rather large collection of guns, from the practicool to tacticool. I get excited over every type of firearm from sling shots to rocket lauchers, love to talk about all of them.

I hope to participate in many discussions.
 
Hi Folks

I will enjoy sharing any information that may have impact on your issues too. Should be fun! GS

New to the forums

Hello Everyone! My name is Kristina and I am a long-time hunter and range shooter. I started shooting when I was 12 and my dad put my through hunter's safety and rewarded me with my own Ruger 10/22. I have hunted with muzzleloader and modern rifle, I got my first pistol (an SR-9) from my dad when I turned 21 (he may have spoiled me a bit after my two older brothers showed no hunting/gun interest). I now carry a Ruger LCP since Wisconsin recently passed the concealed carry law (I may have an obsession with Ruger).

In any case, my primary reason for joining the forum is that my dad passed away last August and I have inherited about 20 guns, some of which are older models that I'm not familiar with. I was wondering if there are any specific parts of the forum for gun identification or if I should just post in the specific handgun/rifle sections.

I'm very interested to read what others have to say on the forum and if anyone can assist me at all.
 
Hello! I'm new to the forum. 26 with a wife and two kids (a 6 year old girl and
1 year old boy...who acts like a gremlin). Raised in Houston, TX and currently live in Lubbock. If you're wondering about my username, it's a play on Kevin Spacey's character "Verbal Kint" from the AMAZING movie, "The Usual Suspects".

I currently own a 1st gen Glock 17 and a Weatherby Vanguard chambered in .308 Winchester with a Nikon ProStaff 3-9. However, I'm looking to expand my collection with a 1911. And maybe learning a few tricks of the trade on tactics and customization.

God Bless!

Howdy

Howdy everyone. Been hunting pretty much my whole life but have just now ventured into the world of reloading, mainly due to trying to save a little money from shooting so much. I have a conceal carry license for Arkansas. I normally carry my Walther PPS 9mm unless it is a warm day, then I carry a Ruger LCP .380. I mainly joined to try and get some good advice for a beginning reloader. Well that's about all I have to say.

Hello, I am a 40 year old female. I shot my first hangun at 28 years old. My former fiance, a Marine Sharpshooter, started me in the Tucson, AZ desert with a Ruger45. It scared the heck out of me and I stayed away. In Louisville, KY I puchased a .357 titanium lite 2 1/4' barrel and my love affair began.

I am back in NY now and am waiting for my Sportsman's carry.

I have found that being a gun owner can transcend anything...race, color, credd, religion or lack of religion. I have a passion for target shooting and look forward to being a part of this forum.
