Greetings from the new guy!

[k8ysv]

Hi all, just wanted to post the obligatory newb post and introduce myself. Name's Jeff and I found this site a few weeks ago. Since then I've been lurking and figured it was time to join.

Lately I've had this obsession with shooting and firearms (since Ohio passed CCW and I've been preparing). I try to learn all I can and contribute where possible. I'm developing a small stable of guns and love to shoot them all, but my "wanted" list never seems to shrink. Here's a glimpse at what I've got so far:

Bushmaster AR-15
Marlin 57 .22 Mag lever action
Ruger 10-22
Glock 23
Glock 34
Springfield XD-40
HK USPC .45
Ruger SP101 3" .357Mag
and my newest acquisition....
S&W 5906 TSW

Hope to be a useful member of the site and I'm sure I'll continue to learn lots from you fine folks!

Welcome K8!

Looks like all you need is a 1911!

K8,

Where in Ohio exactly. My g/f is from the area. She grew up around the Cortland, Farmdale area...

Bainx, nah he needs a big magnum wheelgun, he already has semi-autos.

Welcome to the board!!

Welcome K8!!!

Glad to have you aboard. Lots to learn here. Also, don't forget to contribute whenever you feel you can do so. Good shooting

 

[aguyindallas]

Don't we all need a big magnum wheelgun?

 

[k8ysv]

Thanks for all the welcomes everyone!

Yep, I was thinking I need a 1911. Been eyeing Kimbers up and definitely have (at least) one on the wish list. I think I need a shotgun or two too. There's a .44 Magnum Colt Anaconda in my late uncle's collection that's earmarked for me if the collection gets dispersed, so that covers the Big-bore wheelgun thing.... I think the gun collecting this is becoming a sickness. I can't seem to stop and since I'm single, I don't have a wife telling me I can't.

I know, I know...cry me a river, right?


aguyindallas, I'm about an hour west of Cortland, in Brunswick. I had to look it up on a map as I've never been there. It's over towards the PA line.

Welcome aboard! Put your feet up and stay awhile.

I think you have an arsenal and don't need that many guns. With your permission, next time I'm in the midwest, I'll swing by and remove some of those dust collectors from your place.

Kidding of course and welcome to THR!
