I'm late, but welcome to the forum from South Texas.Hello fellow gun owners. My name is Wayne, I'm 67 years old and have only been shooting for the last 7 years. I am a retired auto/ heavy equipment tech of 40 years. I am very fortunate to own enough land to have my own range in my back yard. I can shoot out to 100 yards yet rarely do.
I enjoy reading the articles and post to help me learn if my shooting is adequate for self defense and just plain fun. My wife knows when I say I'm going to the gun store that I'm coming home with something that goes bang....
So if I ask a question just know I'm kinda new and just trying to learn.

Thank you!Welcome to the forum, from west central Minnesota. You will find we are somewhat of a family, sort of
. We come from many backgrounds and different parts of the country, but we share many of the same passions (I’m talking guns here, guys
). Just be wary of the cretins, curmudgeons, and of course…the enablers. There’s lots of knowledge about just about everything here, and if we don’t know…we’ll find out for you.

In my county if you own 1.5 acres or more. You can have a range if you can meet certain restrictions. My wife and I have 4.5 acres. We meet the restrictions..... it's nice!Hello again,
Welcome to you from the Wild Wild Upper Midwest. I'm quite envious of your backyard range.
I thought you looked familiar. I think we met in October of last year. What've you been up to since then? Thanks for stopping by. Don't be a stranger.
New member here. My name is Wayne and I live just south of Raleigh, NC. I'm 67 and have only been shooting for 7 years. I have a home range and practice often on it. I have a Hellcat pro and really enjoy it.
I read the Armory newsletters and find the information very helpful.
