New to Nashville, from Arizona

[asu174]

Nashville-bound for a move in my company, which is based there.  My wife and I leave Monday from Phoenix, where we have lived our whole lives.  

I used to be somewhat active competitively, but tore an extensor tendon in the forearm on my strong side, so I haven’t shot since April and had to have surgery with a long recovery.  It’s discouraging to be loading a huge safe, guns, and ammo in a truck not knowing if I will be able to shoot them again, but I sure as hell can’t sell anything in this gun depression.  And I still pay the safe a visit daily to tinker.

My wife and I don’t have kids.  I’m Libertarian.  She’s more liberal, but completely pro-2A, as someone who is “liberal” should be.  We have two small dogs and bought a quaint little house in East Nashville.  

I’m going to get my TN DL and then need to figure out a place to get my carry permit and possibly qualify support side only since I’m gimpy.

Calibers- 9MM, 5.56, 22LR

Guns I use- Glocks, CZ-75 SA pistols, FN SCAR, AK-74, MP5s, CZ Scorpion.  

Guns I hate- shotgun and anything 40S&W.

Looking forward to the move and eventually meeting some of you if/when I’m back up and shooting.  At least I can pass off as a noob again at matches while I build up my strength and skill again

Welcome to Nashville and TGO! Sorry to hear of the injury. I hope it heals well for you. I would say I hope quickly, but having had a tendon injury, Achilles, I can understand a bit of your problem. BTW, my wife just recently tore her left Achilles and she's having fits with it. They are slow to heal.
