I just wanted to say hi to everyone. I have been a lurker here for a while, and let me say this seems like the most informed group of people in any forum anywhere. Thanks for having me.
 
I don't recall the committee meeting to vote you in, but welcome anyway! :p

There's lots of great info here and lots of great people. Have fun ask lots of questions, and contribute!

Cheers,
ChickenHawk

Yea, I thought I saw some movement off in the shadows out of the corner of my eye .. well, welcome to the light man. Since you're introducing yourself formally, may as well tell us a little about what kind of shooting you do and what kind of firearms you do it with.
 
Welcome to THR. But, be forewarned, this place is strong enabler for gun addiction. When I started I had 4 guns and how I have around 30. :banghead:
 
Thank you for the warm reply

I just shoot for fun mostly. I used to hunt deer with my grandpa when I was young, but haven't hunted since he passed away. That was about 15 years ago. In college, a few friends and my self ran an informal program, not only to get people to shoot, but to try to convert thoes who were anti gun. We used debate, facts, and an unbiased examples and stats to fight the good fight, which in the north-east was not allways easy. I grew up in a house with guns, but my dad was not a shooter or hunter, but belived in guns for self defense, so between dad and grandpa, I saw all of the best in firearms. Conbine all that with my study of revolutionary history, and I'm a beliver in the second Amendment.

As of right now, I shoot the following:
AR15 .223
SIG 229 9MM
HK USP45 45ACP
Colt 1911 45 ACP
Win Mod70 Feather weight 30-06
Win '94 30-30

I've had many other guns, but these are the ones that I have right now.

Thank you for your interset in me. I look forward to discussing firearms with everyone.

once again, thank you for having me.
 
Same here

I'm new as well. I used to read/post at PDO once in awhile. This seems like a place where I can make friends and enemies. But maybe here even my enemies will cov my 6... Let's argue.... ;)
 
DogBonz & ScaredOnce, welcome to the fire.

You're in good company here.

Stay awhile. Warm yourselves by the fire.
Let us know if you need anything.
Ask lots of questions.
SEARCH is your friend.

I'm assuming someone has told you that
new members buy the next rnds.

I'll take another PBR.
(Only the best.)

As our friend Dave McC says, BA/UU/R.

Best,

Nem
 
I recomend the 10/22. I used to look down my nose at .22s till I was out at WW one day and saw one in the case for under two bills. I thought what the hell why not. Well glad I did that little guy is fun to shoot all day, and $10 for 500 rounds cant be beat.
 
Welcome to the fray

Welcome aboard mate. Nothing but the cream of the crop resides here. Just ask Johnny Guest.
 
Welcome and search is youre friend..... if you search long enough their is always a reason to buy another gun. :p
 
Dog and Scaredonce, a big welcome and I second the warning of a forthcoming gun addiction. This is a great Forum and resource.

These guys aren't kidding. This is a bad place. They tempt you with little descriptions of great guns and then once you've bought one, you just can't stop. I promise that you will be in need of a twelve step program.:evil:

This is the best place for great interchange. Welcome!

That's more like a 36 step program.

Guns are way more addictive than all that other stuff.

You'll have to repeat the program at least 3 times. :D
