Raise my hand...

Postby Hardtarget » Sun Mar 01, 2009 1:35 am

...as present. A new member to say hi. I'll post under the screen name of "Hardtarget". I'm not a gunsmith, and I don't play one on TV. I just like to shoot and reload some. I do some photography...shooting again. NRA member for many years. Almost all of my guns are old,( like me...I'm 59) and there seems to be no real direction to this collection. Most came to me from family...and I have NEVER turned one down. Even have a few broken guns...oh well. I do like the mil-surp guns. They are fun to shoot.

Well, its late and I need my beauty sleep....even though it hasn't been working. Might start!

Mark.

Welcome.

Its the time of year when there is a lot going on as things are just now warming up in the Tennessee legislature and there is a renewal of efforts of federally to institute new laws and bans.

There are local chapters meeting in various parts of the state - try one out and meet other members face to face.

Welcome aboard.

As John said things are active in the Tennessee Assembly and you should let your state representative and senator know how you feel on those firearm related bills.

I mentioned to my wife that it's time to write some letters. Nothing special about how i feel about RKBA...I just need to let the congress critters know what is on my mind. They can add me to the list.
