Hello all,

My Name is Mike. I'm 37 years old, married for 18 years, and have a wonderful daughter we just adopted from China. My wife owns and runs www.suttonplacegallery.com, a high end art gallery that is based in London, but has an internet presence in the USA. I own and run Urban Investment Group, a firm that invests in lower and middle class residential properties and manages the leasing of them. I have a PhD in Physics from MIT, and was in the United States Navy for 8 years, serving in the Persian Gulf War for 2 6-month missions.

I have been CHL for 15+ years in multiple states, now in McKinney, TX. I have only had to show my weapon once in Florida to a would-be carjacker (who's probably still running today). I did however have to shoot a home intruder 18 years ago in Florida who charged me with a screwdriver.

My everyday carry is a Springfield Armory Micro Compact 45 carried in a belt slide with retention strap, strong side. I have and love Glocks, but I personally do not like the no manual safety, and dont feel comfortable with it on me for daily carry.

I am a member of a number of forums online. I tend to have a sarcastic streak, all in good fun though.

So there you are, my life laid out for you to shred at will...

Cheers,

Big Mike
