Just a quick note to introduce myself.

I stumbled across this site today, while doing a search for jp red dot & freedom arms. One of the results took me to the article written by Gregg Richter on his new 500WE. I took a quick look around and recognized this as a place I'll feel comfortable in, so I joined up.

I'm on the downhill side of 55, been shooting and hunting with handguns since my 20's, and handloading for nearly 25 yrs. I got my ffl about 6 yrs ago and haven't made a dime since :-) I'm a retired manufacturing executive, spent a few years delivering the mail until my knees gave out and now do some school bus driving when they need a sub.

I'm glad to be here and look forward to knowing you folks.

Welcome, Leadshooter! I think you'll like it here.


It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger squeeze.
