New guy here

Postby Peter32582 on Tue Feb 21, 2012 10:27 pm

Hello all, I'll start out by introducing myself and sharing a little bit about myself also. My name is Peter and I've been interested in guns/hunting for quite a while now. I just recently bought a handgun from the WELL KNOWN ThunderJohn on this forum. The handgun of choice was the Springfield XDm 3.8 Compact 45 ACP Black/Black. I've been a vivid hunter for about 10 or so years, but focused mostly on small game. I recently just finished my Conceal and Carry class and waiting for my permit to be delivered by mail. I hope to learn as much as I can from this forum and share a little as well.

Thanks for reading.

Typically reserved for people who reference having their CCW or having completed a Conceal and Carry class. The gist of the question is that MN has no requirement to conceal while carrying.
