Re: Introduce yourself

Age: 33
Gender: Male
Location: San Antonio
Occupation: Jack of many trades but master of none. Currently unemployed. I do posses a CDL with tanker and doubles/triples endorsements and am a self taught web developer (mainly PHP and MySQL).
CHL: Have not taken the course yet.
Carry weapons: None yet. Looking at either a G23 or a XD40sc, but will be test driving others to get what fits me.
Kids: 3. Daughter is 15 and my boys are 5 y/o and 6 months.

I recently found out that some trouble I got into when I was 19 does not affect my eligibility to own, but more importantly to carry. (Thanks to some very thorough info on these boards.) I am actually more of a rifle guy, but feel that self defense and home protection are very important. After all, crazies are gonna come out of the wood works in December...lol. All that being said, I would love to train for competition shooting. Rifles and handguns. I enlisted in the Army when I was 18 and through my own stupidity was generally discharged. It was an entry level separation so I receive no vet benefits. My MOS was 11x (infantry) and I had high hopes to go airborne Rangers. I shot extremely well and still wish I had not messed up my military career. I would love to have attended sniper school. Sad to say but hindsight really is 20/20. If I had half the knowledge I do now when I was 18.....well I'm sure you all understand.

Side note: My only means of transportation unless I ride somewhere with the wife is my 2010 HD Dyna Wide Glide.

Anyways, glad to be here and I look forward to bending some of your ears along the way.
