I guess I am supposed to make a introductory post. So this is it. My name is Kris, I live in East Texas, I like cars, atvs, guns, hunting, camping, going to the drag races, stuff like that. I have a couple of 12 ga, the requiste .22, Remington .243 w/leoupold scope, Browning .270 WSM w/leoupold, and a Springfield Armoury XD40. I thought I would check out the forums for some info about guns in general and reloading.

    Howdy from Texas...

    Been a lurker for a long time, decided to make it official and maybe put my 2 cents worth in every once in awhile. I got a thick skin and have been called about every name in the book, so I think maybe I'm ready [:D]

    Quick update, I have been real busy and will probably stay real busy... My GF found a pink thong in the house, I have NO IDEA where it came from... I'm sure I don't need to elaborate any further. But having no reason to lie to you all, I swear to God I don't know where they came from!! I'm thinking it is one of her sisters or her sisters friends...

    Needless to say I am currently having problems on the home front, I think I will get back in touch with legal aide and continue my custody situation.

    It's a (*)#@$(* shame that * won't take my word.. I have sworn to God and on my sons life I DONT KNOW WHOS PANTYS THEM ARE!!!

    oh well...

    how's everyone doing? Haven't had much time to check out the forums, hope everyone is well.

    I put a PTR-91 on layaway at the shop. Hopefully I'll pick up next week and give it a test run. I'll try to let you all know how it shoots.

    Just closed the semester out on Friday and thought I'd pop in to say hello and see what you've all been up to.

    So, what's new?

    New member here. I just ran across this forum yesterday and I must say it's one of the more busy ones that I've ever run across.

    I'm a member at www.smith-wessonforum.com and just thought I'd hang out here a while if it OK with you guys. We got a good group over there also but it's nice to see some new faces from time to time.

    Anyway thanks for letting me join and I'll try not to stir the pot on issues I don't agree with to much.[:)]

    Was tired earlier, probably could use another hour or two of sleep, but all is well. Wish this rain would turn to snow.

    Haha! No way, summers off.. heck, I could even come into work hungover, say "go play frisbee" and then sleep in my office for the duration of class. Not saying I would, but the option is on the table.

    Still in Erie. Haven't been shooting much, sold most of my guns, only one I have left is my grandpa's .222 Savage. Haven't even hunted in nearly 4 years. I think next year I'll go.. by the time I got the itch this year, it was kind of late. I'd like to pick up another glock, miss shooting pistols, that was my favorite. Been spending my time working (QC at a salad dressing plant), lifting weights, sitting around, the usual.

    Hows GB been? Is this place still full of kooks and hacks? [;)]

    Pretty good, Its been awhile. Good to see ya.[:)][:)]

    Though my writing is far under appreciated by the electricians around here. Before its time.[:D]

    Its kinda snowish around here, got a few deer in the freezer, a few quail and rabbit too. And lets not forget squirrels, I must have shot atleast 75 of them this late summer and fall.

    Caught some fish this summer, Cats, Bass, and mess after mess of bluegill and sun fish.

    Had a bunch of frog legs and mudbugs along the way to..

    and best of all I am still wifeless and sonless, to early in life for that kind of thing by years.
