    As Doobie pointed out, I should introduce myself. I have been interested in firearms since I can remember. Was one of those kids who grew up in the suburbs of upstate NY, playing cowboys and Indians with the neighborhood kids and always had toy guns. Getting older, my interest grew, and I graduated to air rifles and paintball guns in high school. When I moved down from NY to VA at in 2003, I was finally able to both afford and own actual firearms. Well events in life eventually brought me to Clarksburg, MD, where I am now located. While I do enjoy living where I am, I have to say the retarded gun laws are a bit of a pain in the @$$! I am currently a working on building various AR15 variants (5.56 and 9mm) and also recently built a long range marksmanship rifle based on a savage 308 action in a masterpiece arms chassis. I have been shooting at TMGN, and occasionally at NRA in VA. Once this crazy weather clears up, I plan to head over to peacemaker to try out my new long range rig. Recently, I have also been working on a polymer80 Glock19 build and am still working out all the bugs. Always willing to learn new things, and also teach others what I know. My non-firearms hobbies include R/C planes, heli's, Cars, and woodworking.

    Was Born in Troy, NY. Lived in Scotia, NY until I was 25 then Saratoga, NY until 30. Then headed down to Centreville, VA. The cars I was referring to were radio controlled Race cars, however, I do admit to having the desire to try my hand at a factory5 kit car.... just don't have the tools or experience for it.

    Welcome from Ellicott City. It’s shame that most rural areas of New York state are very pro 2a but trapped in such an Anti regime.

    Welcome from Middletown-- Both of my kids were born in Watertown, NY. I always loved the climate and the geography of Upstate--- Ft Drum was absolutely one of my favorite assignments during my career.
