A FNG from central Arizona

**retropox** · 03-20-2015 09:38 PM

Greetings!
I'm a new guy here, and a novice who
will be lurking in "Other Auto Pistols".
I'm just starting to learn marksmanship;
(I suppose burning up penny-shot-22 ammo as
a high school kid in the '70's doesn't count)
So... I bought a nice M1911 this summer, and a
tough old bird is teaching the teacher to shoot
(I'm a college professor).
I never served in the military, but my daughter does though;
she's an Honors Graduate of the USAF Academy,
and flies a Herc to bad places,
to pick up/drop off rough men who ...do things.

My only connection to milsurp firearms is the
M1 icon

carbine I inherited from Dad, and the Enfield
tanker .38 from my English veteran uncle.

I suspect I'm not the usual inhabitant of this locale...
