Welcome to THR, 1911sr. Greetings from the Bozeman area. Just don't ask me to hold a target for you... it would be zwecklos to ask!! :D Schiessen Sie los.
 
(chuckling quietly)

It's proving to be an interesting mix of people, 1911sr - knowledgable, opinionated, and I suspect the cologne of choice is still contested: Sweets, or Hoppes #9.

I'm one of the Lesbians (and no, I'm not looking for a date. . .!).

Have fun!

Trisha,

My own favorite fragrance is Ed's Red. 1911sr, one of the things that I like at THR is that people don't pick on me for being different; the other members permit and respect my diversity (I DO avoid breathing the acetone, really). Another is that, whether you're 8 years old or 80, whenever you know something I don't, I'm gonna learn from you.
 
!!! Trisha!! Wow! Really??
Since my earliest memories the weapons room has always smelled like Hoppes, but actually I wear Joy.
I began with Dad in the reloading room at maybe 12 actually reloading. I got my first rifle at 6. I still have that Chipmunk .22. I do hardcasting and I've taught lots of ladies to reload on the old board in the Ladies Forum.

Thanks for the welcomes, guys!

:^)
 
1911sr.........I just noticed what state you are from.........back in 1951/53, I spent some time in Great Falls and Plentywood, Montana (extreme NE part of state) I really enjoyed myself and met some great folks there.
I started teaching my son to shoot at age 5.....bought him his first shotgun at age 11 (Remington 1100, 20ga) by the time he was 13 he was shooting better skeet than I was.......dangit.:mad:

Anyhoo.......welcome again.:)
 
I'd blush, except. . .

I've been told on several occasions that I'm 'one recruit shy of the free toaster oven.'

My tastes in perfume are Happy, by Clinique, and on rare occasions, Opium or Poison; but I've delighted in going out for lunch after a long morning at the range reeking of VV N340 and sunscreen. . .

The agent that had expressed an interest in my novel backed down after reading the manuscript. She said, "Between the social commentary that takes aim at everything except fast food and ethnic minorities, the detailed lesbian love scenes and the alternative lifestyle of the main characters that nearly redefines the term I love it! The problem will be finding a publisher that wants their name associated with your work. Good Luck!"

(sigh)

Maybe that's why I enjoy the people here. Differences are enjoyable!

Are you going to post any pictures of you and your pet firearms/best targets? I hope so!

7.5 Swiss? It's possible, though I'm more into handguns than rifles - I keep an open mind.

DorGunR,

The Master wants his pupil to surpass him.

Ya done good.

1911sr, on K31 rifles, I couldn't get the links to work when I did a search for sources. My Q: I've got a K-31 on my "Gotta Buy - SOON!" list. Any recommendations about what to look for? My primary interest is to shoot it; if it has some dings and "character" on the outside, that's fine.
 
1911sr,

Welcome to the board from a new member myself! I just joined the other day.

Nice area your living in. Although I brought my family back to my home state of Vermont for a couple of years, we have a house and property just SE of Great Falls. I lived out there for about 20 years. We'll be back in four years at the most. And can't wait to get back out there.

Just joined myself, but I'd agree it's an excellent source. Nice to see a lady interested in the shooting sports. Now if I can just swing my wife from "mild interest" to "near fanaticism" like me:) Anyhoo, welcome aboard!
 
Thanks, guys. I've never actually lived in town. I can't stand being away from Lost Prairie. We have a really nice range here at home so I can shoot as often as I want.
I've visited in Florida but I'd really like to see the ocean some day. Especially the Pacific. But NOT in California.

:^)
 
Now, c'mon, dear.

As a PRK native, I can swear to you that Californy is a WONDERFUL place to visit. I can't reccomend MOVING here, but don't knock the place's geography sight unseen.

You have my permission to ridicule the political environs all you want. "Circus" is an understatement.

This place really does have some of the nicest places to live in the whole country. To write it off to the liberal loonies who've congregated here is to let them win, and die with mostest bestest toys. That is a crime, and a dis-service to all loyal Americans.

Besides, If'n you don't come to visit, how can I hold the door for you or volunteer to put an apple on my head? ;)
 
Second that, from my perspective of 40 of my years in southern Kali. I have NO desire to live there again, but if you want to experience the west coast, you've got to go to Kali. Southern for the swimming and body surfing, northern for the scenery.

Yes, I know, Oregon and Washington have beautiful coastline too. See ALL of it!


But there's nothing like Carmel...
 
welcome to THR ! This is a fun place.

And DarkEros also sounds like someone I should meet:evil:
 
Hi chugach! Its http://www.simpsonltd.com
And somehow I thought DarkEros would be here. She's the one who sent me here. She must have a different name here, no?

:^)


Oops! I corrected the link!

Welcome,

I think I remember you from that other board, but you wouldn't know me 'cause I just mainly lurked there. I hope all is well with you. You'll like it here.
