Default Hello from the Space Coast
Hello Fellow Forum Members,

I'm Jim from the Space Coast in Florida. I am a 21 year Navy vet and 20 year law enforcement officer. While in the Navy, I joined the San Diego Police Department as a reserve officer and served in that capacity for seven years. At the end of my Navy career, I was an E-9 and chief of law enforcement at the Naval Training Center in Orlando, FL. After retiring, I joined the Orange County Sheriff's Office in Orlando and served in several investigative posts including Intelligence, Narcotics, Organized Crime and Internal Affairs. I later worked as an investigator for the Florida Attorney General.

I have carried several different S&W pistols both on duty and off. I currently own a full-size M&P 45 and have an M&P45 Shield on order which I expect to arrive in about three days.
