New Member Welcome Thread 2

[XDfan#1]

Good morning everyone,

I just joined within the past couple of days. I came across this site while I was researching how to get a non-resident CCW license for the state of PA where my brother lives. I have had a full CCW license from NY for about 20 years or so. Retired from a Gov't job back in 2000 and currently a Sheriff's Office Dispatcher/911 Operator. Been in my local volunteer Fire Department for 21 years. Became a licensed "Ham Radio" operator two years ago, holding a General Class ticket. Been a hunter/shooter/fisherman most of my life. Won't bore you with any more details, just wanted to say "Hi" and let you know my background.

By the way, Hi Tom (XDFan#1--did I get that right??) where did you get that buck photo???? I'll bet it wasn't taken here in "upstate" NY!!!!!!:laugh: Wouldn't that be sweet!!!!:biggrin:

This pic is from Ohio my buddy sent it to me lastyear!!

Still following the MSNBC comments about the Washington State Police Massacre. I sure wish that a couple of customers at the coffee shop were Certified CCW. The headlines would have read 'Attempted Massacre'.

Hi all

Tried to post a few days ago but it didn't take for some reason. I'm a new member from Michigan. Recently obtained a CPL
in Michigan. Used to have one 30+ years ago, but let it expire and never renewed it. Recently decided it was time to get another one. No longer being a law enforcement officer, it was necessary to go through the classes and formal application
process for CPL. Have enjoyed many of the posts and hope to add a few myself in the near future.

Hello all from Vermont--the state with the least gun control in the Nation. For those of you who don't know, our constitution allows carry (concealed or otherwise) without a permit.
