    New poster here.

    10 year Navy vet
    Married 25 years
    Daddy to awesome (adopted) 5 year old hell raiser
    Federal employee

    It’s thanks to the little one that the wife wants a gun for defense. Not just home either she’s talking about concealed carry as well. It’s funny because before she said we’d never have one but thanks to the craziness of the Leftists she’s done a 180.

    So we expect to have a rifle, shotgun, and handgun before the end of the year. And waitlisted for a suppressed SBR. :party29:

    Welcome once again.

    That's a good intro.

    Congrats on your adoption and 25 years. One's a recent gift and the other a treasure.

    I'm sorry to hear of your Navy service. If you were six feet tall and or wanted to work for a living, you might have joined the Coast Guard instead.

    Looks like you've got a plan. Good luck working the plan.

    Lots on advice herein. Some of it is even good AND well intended.

    Welcome aboard!
    You're bio is pretty much like many here so you should fit in.
    Hey, take the inter-service joking as love taps. We've got people from every service due to the bases here. I was a Jarhead, but I won't call you a Squid in front of a Kneedeep. :lol:

    Thanks all. No worries on the inter-service jokes...can’t claim to be a vet and then be sensitive...well unless you were in the chAir Force. I do love how it was both of the Navy’s DAUGHTER services who got something to say. Only experience I have with the Brown Navy was the airport by the house they used to fly out of. I was a Corpse-Man with Tio Sam’s Misguided Children for four years.

    Ouch.

    Son is a twice deployed Marine with four commands under his belt. His corpsman was his ace in the hole.

    Welcome aboard. It’s nice to know that you have a spouse who wants to take responsibility for protecting herself and your family.

    Good luck during your journey. I’m not an old timer here but those how have been around here for a while are quite helpful and there is no shortage of advice.
