I'm from south TX on the coast, I just wanted to say yall are a good group of guys and gals. I'v been lurking for a while, as long as I'v been carying, yall are very helpfull and informative. My brother is a LEO so if I can help I will. I love shooting, pistols, rifles, shotguns whatever. My wife and I bought 20 acres outside of brazoria, and my brother and I are planning on building a pretty nice shooting range. Mabey some of you non yankees(south of I-10) would come down and shoot.

Welcome

Welcome aboard, Glockin. That Charter Arms .38 you have - would it be a stainless "Undercover .38 Special"? If so, I've got the same gun. Recently changed out the tiny factory wood grips for Pachmyer grips...much better.

Stick around....there is a lot of good info here as well as a good group.

Yeah, the original grips were so small it was hard to get a good grip on it. It was easy to conceal - slipped into a pocket real well.

welcome glockin. Glad to have you aboard. I-10 aint the yankee line. That is the Mason Dixon. Anyone flying a Lone Star at the same height as the Stars & Stripes is Texacan through & through. :patriot: :txflag: I Will keep the Lone Star to the right though. ;-)
Good arms chest.
Welcome aboard.

Welcome, Glockin.

I used to spend a lot of time out your way. My Grand father, before he lost his legs, used to have a small piece of land outside of Brazoria. It was his retirement. Had about 4 or 5 cows and worked a garden. He has passed now, but there are lots of good memories, except for crawling over a yellow jacket and coming out of the oak tree the hard way.

Welcome! Beautiful country and I enjoyed traveling through there back when we lived in Houston. I'm sure it's a mighty fine place to be!
