    As a new member I want to say "hello" from Tennessee

    Hello all,

    I'm Joe and I hail from southwest Tennessee. Just recently acquired my HGP and have many things to learn, consider and practice. I've been around for half a hundred years and like most folks in these parts I have been shooting for most of those 50 years. I try to shoot often and am fortunate enough to have my own shooting range. I can walk out the door head 100 yards left and start sending the lead down range. My carry choice varies between open and concealed based on several factors. It is beginning to look like I will lean more towards concealed but being a "Big" guy, I do find that to be uncomfortable at times. All of my carry weapons are 45's but I am thinking about adding an H&K USP 9MM to the group. My goals here in this forum is to use as many resources as possible to be the best and most informed HGP holder that I can be.

    Welcome from SW PA.
    Looks like it would be hard to go wrong w/ the HK. I just recently bought a XDm 45 Compact.. now trying to decide which holster to go w/ and then I will give reports on how comfortable and concealable.

    The situation will NEVER BE THE WAY YOU WANT, it WILL BE THE WAY IT IS. You must be FLEXIBLE ENOUGH TO ADAPT and just "DEAL WITH IT".

    Welcome from South Carolina...
    Sometimes in life you have to stand your ground. It's a hard lesson to learn and even most adults don't get it, but in the end only I can be responsible for my life. If faced with any type of adversity, only I can overcome it. Waiting for someone else to take responsibility is a long fruitless wait.
