For the longest time, I was apprehensive about owning a firearm. But things that have happened in the recent past have lead me to believe that I must be prepared, in case there was a need. Off I went to the local arsenal and took an intro class, followed by a couple of times on the range with a rental. I still need to work on my breathing technique and overall steady hands and all my basics a lot more !!!
I've always enjoyed the forums for my various hobbies/activities in the past.

Welcome. Did you take the intro class and rent the guns for practice at Blue Ridge Arsenal?
Competition is one of the "great levelers" of ego.

THE HIGH PRICE OF FREEDOM IS A COST PAID BY A BRAVE FEW. In memory of our fallen heroes.
