Seriously, I have been a shooter and firearms owner since my Boy Scout days back in 1963. My favorite handgun is the Colt 1911, favorite shotgun is an old Remington 1100 slightly custom, and the only centerfire rifle I currently own is an Interarms Mark X in .243 Win. I,m also into traditional black powder hunting and have several cap and ball pistols. I don't own anything that I cannot or will not shoot. I can't afford to just look at them. My family shoots and I have a few acres in Surry County, VA that allows us the luxury of shooting any time we see the need. I reload metalic cartridges but not shot shells. I'm always looking for a "bargain".

Glad to have you on the site. Good old Smithfield VA. I was married there back in 1996 in a very very old church. I believe it was built in the 1600's. It's been a long time since I've been there and I can't remember the name of the place. Welcome!!
