    Hi from Cucamonga, CA

    Hello forum members.

    I am a retired detective from a large police department in the L.A. area. Did patrol and the detective thing for a total of 28 years.

    I am a believer in armed citizens, but the politicians and many police chiefs and sheriffs in CA aren't listening to me!

    I carry concealed all the time when I am out.

    I look forward to some interesting subjects on this forum.

    Hello from Cucamonga, CA

    Hello to everyone on the forum.

    Retired Detective from Southern CA.

    Always carry when in public.

    Prefer wheelguns for their reliability, but do carry a Kahr PM9 now and again.

    Look forward to interesting reading here.
