I keep approving new accounts, and not seeing introductory posts. Please introduce yourselves. The gang is fairly friendly.

And, I have not noticed anyone minding redundency, so don't worry about reading the whole site before you jump in.

Hi,

Were just so busy doing back ground checks on everyone since we work for the C.I.A., it does take some time you know.

I better say Im kidding before the paranoia starts to fester.

Just kidding.

My name is Eddie.

Hi Eddie,  welcome.  If the CIA wanted to look this is a public forum. Sooooooo.
Maybe they would lighten up if they let themselves participate in some varied human discussion.

They have a file on everybody. If they were smart they would see people like us as an asset instead of a threat or a competitor. Just goes to show their attitude towards us.

Perhaps they do see us as an asset; I doubt any of us has received a briefing on the issue lately.

I think we've covered the subject so thouroghly that all the newbies questions are answered just by reading old threads. They don't post because they don't need to.

Thank you for the warm welcome.

I just bought a Remington 870 to go with the Glock.  Just received my license to carry a concealed weapon...just in case.

Hi again everyone,

I did just the opposite, I bought a Glock 9mm to go with my Mossberg and I too, got my CWP. 

Hi Timber7....thanks.

Opsec...your right about most things getting covered so there isn't much to say, but I probably will have a question once in a while, and my angle on things is pretty much the same as everyone elses. Things are looking grim by the day. All over the world things seem to be getting worse, I think history is once again poised to make a dramatic shift, if you get my drift.
