    Hi from central Connecticut

    been off & on looking here for awhile and felt it was near time to pull up a chair.

    i started carrying in the early 70's cause of my job; the same job i have recently retired and can now devote my time and waning energies to what i like: various types of matches, reloading ( 27 calibers) and instructing. the later started in '91 when i joined a club and began attracting a lot of questions. i teach from Basic for your CCW permit through advance SD techniques. the NRA likes me and my daugher; they just flew her to Pittsburg as a guest speaker at their annual meeting.

    my favorite handgun is a Kimber Stainless Gold Match from the late '90s and older 32's.
    as i've noticed about others--that they do not always do as i think they will nor often as they say they will.
    this not only makes life interesting, it makes it dangerous too.
