Introduce yourself

[KBCraig]

I work as a maintenance tech at a BOP Prision.

Excellent! Are you going to Marksville next week? I know I'll see Cathy New and the gang there. Tell Tommy Cobos the old Texarkana crew says hey.

Judging from the dates of the posts, I'm a bit late to the party. I've been a gun owner for a while. I used to shoot IHMSA long range handgun silhouette years ago, but I got away from it.

Now that I'm in a better position in life, I'm going to brush up and take my CHL class later this year. To commemorate the occasion, I just bought a brand new Glock 22. I wanted to get familiar and comfortable with it before I sign up for the class.

Along with the Glock and my Thompson Contender (numerous barrels), I also have a 1911A1 Auto Ordnance, Dan Wesson 357 Super Mag revolver, Colt Police Positive .38 Special revolver, and a S&W Model 19 357 Magnum revolver.

I've already gleaned a lot of information from this forum, and hope to learn more.

Welcome aboard centex aggie and arod757! Glad to have you with us.

Howdy!

I just wanted to stop in and introduce myself. My friends call me Bonz.

My soon-to-be wife and I took the course on March 15th and sent in the paperwork on March 17th. DPS cashed the checks on March 25th. I'm sure we're still a couple months out, but it's good to know there's a support group for folks like us.

As a side note, when we are legal, my "soon-to-be" will carry an S&W 642-2 and I will carry an S&W M&P9c. Both are in fitted Don Hume leather holsters. I prefer OWB and she currently prefers IWB clipped in an interior pocket of her handbag.

Welcome, AggieBonz02. Will the soon-to-be Mrs. AggieBonz02 be joining us on the Forum?

When is the wonderful event to take place?

[AggieBonz02]

I've shared this website with the soon-to-be Mrs. AggieBonz02 and I think she would enjoy coming here to visit with the other ladies.

We are to be wed on June 28th of this year.

[CompVest]

Look forward to having her join us. Oh and you too!

Hello all,

My name is David and I've been lurking around this site for some time. So I figured I'd introduce myself.

Some of you may already know me, I run Texas Gun Trader.com . I'm an active shooter in the Austin area. I like to shoot pistols and rifles equally.

I look forward to joining you in your conversations in the future.

Dave

Hello everyone my name is Gregg and I am a native Houstonian. I'll be 44yr's old on the 4th of July and I'm interviewing this week with the Montgomery County Sheriff's Dept. I took my CHL class last Nov but never got around to sending in my application because I needed to get the date's of my arrest record but come to findout that since they were only for unpaid traffic ticket's and I was 'detained' but not arrested so I actually had nothing to worry about . So my application, with updated finger print's, will be sent in shortly.

Anywho I'm up late just surfing and said "hey I wonder if there is a texas chl forum and bingo!! I am looking to purchase thru Academy, with my employee discount, a Taurus PT 24/7 .45, because it fit's like a glove, and a Taurus Model 145BP MILLENNIUM PRO .45 for my CC. I'm very happy that I found this forum as I'm sure I will learn alot and be able to keep up with our state's rule's/reg's change's as they take place.

Thank's,
Gregg
