    Greetings from the Bayou

    Hi, Folks:

    I'm a 57 year old retired engineer with a lifetime of plinking, hunting and 4 years of handgun silhouette shooting. I've been out of the game for a while but I'm now applying for a CCW permit since my wife and I are starting to travel by motorcycle and we feel a bit exposed traveling some areas, especially after dark.

    Happy to be here.

    Harley Driver
