So, yup another new member, still waiting on my card (and checking the texas online link alot...lol). In the meantime I remembered about this forum so I decided to stop in look around and hopefully load up on useful info about carry choices, weapon selection, etc etc.
also my thanks to Charles Cotton for a great course that was fun and informative.

Welcome to the forum. You will learn a lot and get all kind of opinions. Let us know what you decide to carry and then you need to post us a picture.

Welcome aboard sir. You'll like it here, whether you are newish
to handgunnery, or more experienced. There's a wealth of folks
on the forum who have a variety of knowledge and stories.
Some of which are accurate and true! :-)
I will ask my standard question of all new members:
What gun(s) do you own, and what will you be carrying?
Or are you gunless at the moment and considering your 1st purchase?
SIA

Glad to have you along rebel8ball. It's a great forum and you'll find more information here and probably learn about things you hadn't even considered before.

i took it as a goof (if you look close its not loaded) but realized when i looked at the pic that a 45 is very good deterent, when youre looking at the bussiness end and it looks like a sewer pipe makes ya stop and really think about what youre doing....or at least it would make me! ;)
