Hello from North Carolina , I'm an avid paper hunter here and sometimes like to hunt some critters too. My best White tail to date is a 8 pointer that went 164 not too bad for a Southeastern deer. I have been hunting since I was 7yrs old. My other passion is fishing but that's for another forum. I'm glad to be a member here and look forward to learning all I can from you all.

Welcome to this lovely bunch of coconuts blindhog!

Hi all!  I'm Stu from southeast Michigan.  I've been a recreational handgun shooter since I was about 12 years old, but got out of it when I sold my revolvers in '79, during that "other" recession.

Flash-forward to the '90s; I've been running a mobile DJ company for a number of years.  Suddenly the criminal element decided to single out bands and DJs for armed robbery.  I'd been talking about getting back into shooting for a while, but my wife was cool to the idea.  When we both saw a story on TV about a DJ being shot and his equipment stolen, she looked at me and said, "It's time."

So I got back into shooting, taking my CCW class and getting my permit (back before they changed MI law making it easier), and have been a Glock fan, a 23 in .40 caliber being my first (and still primary) carry pistol.  Through my class and the range I shoot at, I became involved with several MI grass roots groups to promote gun rights.  (We were the ones that got the law changed!)  I'm still active with them.  I've been carrying now for about a dozen years and still feel like a newbie!

LOVE downrange TV!  You guys are the gunny equivalent of "Mythbusters" to me; you take a scenario, show the worst-case scenario, then show better outcomes and keep on ratcheting-up the sanity level until, perhaps, a shooting can be avoided altogether!  I think this is "must see TV" for anyone who carries.  I also like seeing some of the competitions out there -- something I don't often get to do here.  (I was involved with a bowling pin league for a while.  It was fun while it lasted!)

Anyway, that's more than anyone wants to know, I'm sure!  Great site -- I plan on making it a regular stop!

Best,

~Stu

hey everybody, caffe here. whats up?
I won't be talked bad about, I won't be insulted, I won't be laid a hand upon. I don't do these things to others, I expect the same in return.
Thou I walk through the valley of death, I will fear no evil because God gave me the ability, means and the attitude to slip into Hell and Darkness to protect the ones who have given me their trust to protect them and to protect the ones I LOVE.

Hello all.  Shooting in NC here.  Found this site through Down Range TV.  It should be interesting to see some of the discussions.
