Thanks for the great feedback

I live in Friedberg and I'm not Mr. Friedberg so call me Stefan because that's my first name. "I am German, and every German I knew had guns" - don't get me wrong but the fact is most of the germans have no guns but maybe you just met the right people
Ich wollte einfach nur meine Waffen aufzählen und bin davon ausgegangen das die meisten hier in dem Forum sicherlich mehr als 3 Waffen besitzen und wollte desshalb nur kurz erwähnen dass das für deutsche Verhältnisse eine angemessene Zahl ist da hier generell nicht so viele Waffenbesitzer leben. Vielleicht kam die Botschaft durch meine mäßigen Englischkenntnisse falsch an dann war dies aber nicht so beabsichtigt.
Texas likes to claim a significant German heritage... Welcome!
Hi Stefan, welcome to TGT. Isn't Nürnberg where the high-performance automotive test track is at? Like several others here I too have ancestors from Germany. Mine lived in Sachsen. I don't know if that is anywhere near you though. BTW, I just started acquiring guns so you've got me out-gunned (but hopefully, not for long.)
Welcome aboard. I am familiar with "your" area of germany. I spent 3 years there in the army split between Bamberg and Wertheim (not too far from Wurzberg). My son was born in Wurzberg, too. I'm hoping and planning to go to a reunion at my old station of assignment at Peden Barracks in Wertheim next summer.
The castle in Friedberg is called “Burg” and yeah I know exactly what you’re meaning sitting on the wall with a cold beer in your hand and talking with with your friends on a nice summernight is a little piece of the paradise on earth (when I’m writing this the memories and feelings from last year are coming through my head).Welcome to the forum!
I lived in Friedberg for 4 years back in the early '90s. Then moved to Butzbach and eventually to a little town called Kirchgoens.
I spent a lot of time exploring your area. We used to pack up a backpack full of beer and sit on the wall of Friedberg castle (schloss?) at night.
I had a crazy girlfriend who lived in Brandoberndorf. I'd imagine she's still crazy. Made a lot of good friends during my time in Germany and had a lot of fun.
My favorite beer is still Licher Export even though I can't get it in Texas and haven't had it in years.
