Hi everyone. Being new to the forum, I thought I'd stop by and say hi. I've owned many guns in the past but now I am down to one (with another hopefully soon). I've got a Springfield XD(M) 5.25 in 9mm and, when and if the background check delay gets resolved, a Kimber 1911 3" in .45 cal. My wife, even though she was dead set against guns when we married, is now an avid 2nd Amendment supporter who has had some training sessions at a local range and is trying to decide on something for herself. Again, great to be here and I look forward to learning from you all. v/r Joe

Hi Joe! Welcome aboard from King George!
If you want total security, go to prison. There you're fed, clothed, given medical care and so on. The only thing lacking... is freedom.

Welcome! Great gun choices. I just got the XD and dream of a Kimber!
