I am a new member from Knox County near the Union County Line. I love to shoot as a hobby and always carry for self defense. I've had firearms since I was 16 and started learning to shoot about age 8, taught by my Marine Corp Reservist sharp shooter dad! I've only had one situation where I had to self defense draw in my 60+ years; 41 years of CCW. EDC is a S&W M&P Shield Plus 9mm and a Taurus PT738 TCP .380 (an "A" model and flawless performance with FMJ since 2010). My parents and one set of grandparents all carried. Looking forward to this forum!
