Another new guy making introduction. Relatively old Marine, family man, grandfather of 7, still harboring youthful fantasies. Been a while since I joined a forum. Long time interest in the M1A (50 years actually since Boot Camp), which turned into infatuation with Vintage Marlin Levers & hyphenated calibers, then to even older Marlin Ballards and ultimately casting for all those, as well as shooting competitively in the BPCR venue. 16-18 years of undiagnosed Glaucoma got my attention finally before actually ending all that.
Glaucoma didn’t end the infatuation started by Roy Rogers and Hopalong Cassidy though. So… since I stopped roving the NW for BPCR matches, among some other forearm interests I’ve acquired a couple K-Frames, a model 28-2 and a Model 586 M-stamp. Most recently I saw a 686 I’ve asked questions about elsewhere here on the forum. I’ve had handguns most my adult life but mostly one at a time and without any depth of knowledge. So no pretense here.
Anyway, I figured with a handful of new interests I best join someplace where knowledge abounds just like I have in the past for other platforms.
Glad to join you and look forward to some reading here. John
