Good Morning From Kuwait

Postby SleepingJake on Wed Oct 05, 2011 12:35 am

Good morning from Camp Virginia, Kuwait. Born in Rochester, grew up in Lake City and currently (read home of address) Albert Lea. I started shooting 2 years ago when I joined up with the hooah squad and it's been a building hobby since then, both cranking out rounds at a range and running & gunning. My arsenal consists of a stainless Ruger 10/22, Bulgarian AK74, Romanian AK47, Mosin Nagant and a Mossberg 500 tactical. Soon to include an AR-15 (Noveske 16" Recon barrel, DPMS upper and MI T10 rail already on order).

I joined to expand my knowledge in all aspects of firearms, learn about ranges in MN, get into reloading and to get to know some of the shooters in this fine state.

Very little, restricted by age, not interest. When I've gone to the range I've shot a PK380-mainly to show the girl it wasn't gonna bite, XDM 45, Colt 1911, Glock 17, Glock 23 and a Glock 37. A Glock 22 and a Kahr CM9 are on my purchase list. The Kahr for CC and the Glock for nightstand/winter CC.
