[Mass-Diver]

Hi everyone,

I've been lurking for a bit and figured I'd say hello. I really like this site alot and have found it very helpful.

I live in MA, about the worst place in the country to live if you like firearms, but I've tried to make the best out of it. I have a Class A "All Lawful purpose" LTC and I shoot about 1-2times per week at my GC. My most recent purchase was a pre-ban Glock 30. I have a few other pistols and I'll post some pics to this thread when I get a chance.

In addition, I work as Registered Nurse at hosptial in Boston. I see a ton of shooting victims on my floor, which is always interesting from a ballistics standpoint. In my free time, I'm into wreck diving and fishing.

Wowee....a CCW-licensed MA resident....welcome.

I'd be curious to find out more about your experiences regarding the effects of gunshot wounds you've witnessed at your job.

Welcome to the forum! Great place for CCW issues here.

I recall a few Docs as members of a former MA gun eList (this was a few years ago), also employees of one of the largest hospitals in Boston. If you are at the end of Mass Ave that I think you are, I wouldn't be caught unarmed at any time!

Hey Diver - welcome to CC :smilez:

Indeed later sometime, without seeming too macabre - give your views on injury matters. No gore but some tech opinions.

Hi and welcome to the forum.

I don't know about you living in the worst place. There is always New Jersey, New York City and DC.

Welcome!

 

[Mass-Diver]

Thanks for the warm welcome.

Here are a few of my carry tools. I just picked up the Glock 30 - these are fairly hard to come by in MA. I'm loving it so far, very accurate.

The revolver is an S&W scandium .357mag snub-nose with crimson trace laser grips - I've been very please with it as well, although the close to $1,000 price tag was a bit much.

 

[P95Carry]

Those will serve well MD tho - indeed the snub is ''lotta bucks''! Can't help thinking that the grips can be bought for around $179 IIRc so what does that make the gun price?!

Anyways - you are well equipped and that is what finally matters. Thx for the pic.

Welcome from a fellow new member, and I gotta ask my first question on this forum.....
you said you have a pre-ban Glock 30...I just got my new 30 last weekend.....what exactly is a 'pre-ban' 30? or is that something thats specific to your state?
