Greetings all.
Been lurking here for some time and decided to join so I could comment on occasion.
Been shooting since I was a child. Dad bought me a .22 when I was eight.
Used to belong to Tri County years ago. Shot Black Powder, Pistol and Metallic Silhouette.
Unfortunately Life and Career got in the way and I have a lot of Firearms which live undistured in the safe.
Spent a lot of my time traveling for work. I have been retired now for Ten Years.
Currently a Member of a Indoor Range in Portland.

Belong to Portland Rifle and Pistol Club. Handy and close to my house.
I handload for my 1911's so I can shoot them at the backstops rather than the Seven Yard traps

I know where that is. Not too far from where I live up here in Cully.
