Re: Introduce yourself
I thought I would say hello.
Just picked up a new Beretta 92FS 9mm this past weekend. Have not shot it yet, but I love the feel of the gun.
Nice forum.

Re: Introduce yourself
Early 40's
Married - 11+ years
Blended Family - 20, 17, 13 year old boys and 7 year old girl
Wife and I own our own engineering company - we do industrial control systems - we make machines and conveyors run
Mailed my app at the end of December, found out today that they reset my 60 dyas on 2/6/09 because I didn't sign the back of a picture and they sent it back while I was working in Guam. I guess none of the time before that counted.
Plan to carry Taurus PT1911. Still trying out holsters and realized today that I might need suspenders to hold everything up. I'm not sure how people with BUGs, knives, and flashlights keep all that up. I'd be constantly pulling up my pants.
I've been lurking for a little while - but not too long, promise.
Live in the San Antonio area.
