Default New to group

Hello people, I would like to introduce myself; I am a resident of Oak Creek, a suburb outside of Milwaukee. I am married, homeowner, Harley guy, am a photographer, and I love guns. My purpose for joining this group came about after my purchase a couple of days ago of a new S&W .45 Shield. I had been looking and looking for a great C&C piece and finally stumbled across the Shield. After going into a local gun store and physically handling one it was Love at first touch, at first sight, hence my purpose and reason for joining this group. I do have a question regarding a holster for my new acquisition but will address that in a different forum. I look forward to sharing and learning from being a part of this group.

There's a wealth of great info stored here. Any question you might have like: "what's the best ammo for the Shield?" somebody has probably already asked and there would be numerous replies in the thread.
