New guy from just south of you

[rn29306]

Hey guys. My mailing address is in Walker County but my employment and all my free time is spent in Tennessee so I hope this is well received. I work at Erlanger in the OR and my wife is medical too. I grew up in middle Georgia but moved around with jobs and education and am probably gonna stay here. I've lived here since 2004. I've grown up around guns my whole life and have been training with Suarez for the last couple years. I've been fortunate enough to learn from Randy in regards to getting off the X and getting tossed around by him in a 0-5 class. I started off with a Ruger .357 Police Service Six as my first handgun, moved to Glocks, am invested heavily in the 7.62x39 with AK rifles / pistols, then obtained some (cough cough) 7.62x54 guns, then just got into the AR based pistols. That about covers my calibers. I love the outdoors and spending time with my family (wife and two labradoodles). I CC when I can and have other items when I can't...its hard to conceal in scrubs and you can imagine that doesn't go over well in the employment arena. I am a member of CRC range.

 

I joined because I know two posters and they recommended the site. It looks to be a great forum and I like how most of the information on here is pertinent to my location. I hope to be an active contributor and continue learning. Thanks guys.

Welcome from "just north of you"

Welcome from just east of you.  My son was born in an Erlanger OR.  Fortunately we got him out and into Georgia before the orange set in (just kidding).

Glocks, AK's and train with Randy? Good going Sir. :up:

 

I'm another healthcare gun-guy that values quality training. Glad to have you here.

Hey dawgdoc. I don't blame you for the quick getaway. The only crazier people about a college team would be our Blue neighbors to the north.

 

I bleed Georgia Southern blue. People just get a funny look on their face or tell me they went a semester to GSU and had to come home.

I came here to get a better house but I neglected to consider the GA income taxes. Bonehead move. Its about time to look for some acres in Tennessee.

rn29306--I went to Georgia Southern for undergrad for 4 years also, then 4 years at UGA.  I think I have a black cloud following me, because both schools' football teams got much better after I graduated.
