Been on the site for a while and made a few posts figured it was time to do the introduction. Moved to Forney (East side of the Metroplex) last May when my company transferred me from Calgary,Canada. So far love Texas and Dallas and don't see that changing any time soon. As most of you know Canada is not a big place for handguns, Shotguns and rifles no problem but Handgun use is a bit more restrictive. 2 things I wanted to cross of my bucket list where Cowboys season tickets ( Check) and being able to own a handgun. Came across this site in researching gun laws in the state and have to say the wealth of knowledge and the attitude of people on here is outstanding. As I have never owned a handgun before I read a ton of the postings on here and it has helped me immensely,and as of 2 weeks ago I am the proud owner of an HK VP9 and already have over 1000 rounds through it. Definitely want to try competitive shooting just not sure where to start but lots of research ahead for that.
Found a great range out here which I will post a review of and even my wife is enjoying target shooting and range time ( She's from New Zealand which has even tougher gun laws) . Met a ton of great people that have no problem answering the FNG questions. Attended my First Gun Show this week end at Big Town in Mesquite i think I spent 5 hours there and i definitely know it won't be my last handgun after that, Already looking for a separate gun for my wife as the VP9 is a little bit big for her maybe a .380 as our neighbors wife said it is the caliber she prefers,who knows so much stuff out there. Not sure if we will ever get CHL but you never know. Any other info or sites any one thinks would help me learn I would gladly welcome
Anyways just wanted to Say Hi and happy to be a member of the best Gun Board in the State.
