Hi, All-
Newest member here, in NE Florida... I'm a retired Navy Chief ET, now finishing up a DOD Civil Service career as well as an ATC Systems Technician... My wife and I just got into shooting sports- well, she just did- I just got back in after about a 40 year layoff... I used to shoot on a Navy pistol team in the early '70's.... but had to part with all my guns when I transferred to Bermuda, and never replaced them/got back into shooting until recently. I love .22's, my wife has a S&W M&P 9mm she loves, and just got her a SR22 she fell in love with for her birthday. I love smallbore rifle, and am looking also at getting a Ruger Mini-14, which is how I came across this forum- searching for info on improving the accuracy of the little Ruger's.
We are getting ready to retire and move, either up to upstate NY- or Maine. Maine is a much better choice for us- with the exception of some of my wife's family- who she badly wants to be near...but she knows Maine is a much better choice for us for many reasons... better property value, lower and more stable property taxes- and better gun laws. We will just have to see where it all leads.
Anyway, looking forward to browsing the forums!
