    Longtime lurker....

    Hello from the North Coast. Ive been in the shadows for a while watching and learning here....and in March I will be taking my Ohio CCW class and then applying for my permit. I have been shooting since I was a kid, mostly rifles and shotguns for food, and pistols to plink cans on the range. I travel to a lot of 'less than desirable' neighborhoods so I felt it wise to carry on the job. I have a Kimber CDP 2 and a Colt 1911 ( pre Model -A1 - my grandfathers sidearm in WW1) which I have lovingly restored to working order.
    That said, this is a wonderful forum with boatloads of good info....

    See you around.

    Welcome. Glad that you have decided to become active. Join right in.

    I still carry my old reliable vintage slabsides occasionally though I don't shoot it much anymore. It never skips a beat.
