It's a sickness. When we moved from California to Hawaii the mover that inventoried my guns with my wife (I was in Japan) told her that he had only moved one other person with more guns and that he was a Secret Service agent that gaurded Pres. Ford. I only had 23 guns at the time. I have since narrowed my collection/selection down quite a bit since then.

How funny. I just picked up my Springfield Armory XD-9 today. I actually purchased it Saturday. Also, took a CWP class on Sunday. It was great!!! Shot 200 rounds for the course. Intstructor is a friend of my family. Retired Army Major 20 years of service. 2 tours in Nam. Also, 20 years as a LEO including SWAT instructor. The class was 10 hours and had a highly tactical approach. I loved every minute of it!!!!!

Nothing like squeezing some off. I loved being on the rifle team in Hawaii. I worked at the range was:
Primary Marksmanship Instructor
Line NCO
Pit NCO
Pitts Master
coach
All I had to do was shoot the morning relays and then the rest of the day was ours. The team would assemble, go to the ammo supply, sign for a crate of .45 or 9mm and go blow rounds. Shot so many we would have a brass sweep. Totally awesome.
Wade, love the SA xd's.

Wow Barry. That sounds like a good time over there in Hawaii. Between all the shootin, hog hunts and beautiful scenery it must have been hard to leave! That is quite the resume. What is your farthest shot?

It's not that big a deal when properly trained and have match grade weapons at your disposal. 50 yrd line matches (one handed stance) with the .45 is alot of fun. Won my Gold medal with the 9mm M9 Barreta in Hawaii in the early 90's.
