Just curious

Having surfed this site for a few days, I'm noticing an abundance of Marines (Semper FI) and members of the other branches of service and am wondering how many of the members here are prior service....so another poll

We do have a thread actually which has had great responses - to get info from all folks who have served - just forget the link right now.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ahhh here we are - Veteran's Roll call - gives a lot of excellent info on who has done what, including I think some currently serving folks.

A lot! I'm dreaming of a P-220 SAS next!

The trigger is a sweet smooth 6 lbs. No double action to single action transition. Very safe for CCW to me. tnx!

(hey, so far 2 Marines and 9 from other branches... looks like we have `em surrounded!)
