Greetings from France

Rapace32 · Aug 11, 2017

Hello,
I am a French shooter and I am happy to join you.
I am both an IPSC shooter and antique guns collector.
I collect essentially martial Colt DA antique model (1889/1892/1894/1896/1901/1903) but I am highly interested in SW revolvers too and I just bought a Smith & Wesson safety hammerless in 38 SW !

I own a modern SW 625 JM in 45 ACP and love it.

I live in South of France and I am major in the French Army (Marine Infantry, which belongs to the Army in France because Marine Infantry is integrated to the Army).

Please excuse my bad english.

Salutations de Caroline du Sud, et bienvenue sur le forum.

Your English is quite good, and my French is from Google.

Welcome to the forum. Your English is fine.

I was stationed at Ramstein AB and Zweibrucken AB in the early 1970's and still fondly remember driving into small French villages and Bitche for wonderful meals.

I was just reading that although France was not bound by the NATO mutual defense clause, she deployed 30,000 military to the Afghan theater with 23,000 going in-country after 9/11/01, starting with a regiment of your Marines 21st RIMA in Mazar-E-Sharif Afghanistan, on 15 November 2001.

Thank you for your rapid support.

Isn't it fun to travel meeting new people without even getting off your chair?
We can actually all get along and enjoy life together.

I have a weakness for French Arms myself.
