Hi all, I'm Lissa. I live in Kodak - the gateway to the Smokies, the first little town you pass through after getting off the interstate going to Sevierville/Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg/GSMNP. I'm an ex-hoplophobe, now an enthusiastic supporter of the 2nd Amendment, HCP holder and new owner of a Bersa Thunder 9mm UltraCompact.

In addition to the Bersa, our household also contains a Springfield XDm 40, a Walther P22 (and is for sale), a Mossberg and my husband's latest project - an AR-15 he built.

I am learning to improve my aim and become more comfortable and proficient in handling my firearm, and experimenting with concealed carry methods. Besides guns, I enjoy knitting, yoga, cooking, Bible study, computers, renovating our house, gardening and herding cats. My husband and I will celebrate our first anniversary on March 28 and - having somewhat successfully raised our combined 9 children - are looking forward to an empty nest.

I look forward to meeting and talking with the folks here!

Welcome, happy upcoming anniversary, and I'm glad I don't live that close to SMKW. I'd be broke. Also close to camp Coleman, (I collect and restore old lanterns ).

I'd suggest keeping a 22 pistol, great for practicing basics cheaply.

One who fears firearms. Welcome, Lissa. Seems your family is well armed. Very glad to see you've overcome that fear.:)

Welcome, LissaKay. Happy to hear that you are overcoming hoplophobia. But be careful of using big or long words. Some of us suffer from hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia :screwy:

(Sorry ... couldn't resist :) ... )
