Hello,

I am here to read and learn more about shooting sports and equipment. Glad to have found this forum, looks like I have a lot of reading to do. Looking forward to it.

I guess I'll throw out a few words to introduce myself.

I'm currently 18, turning 19 next month, and live in Houston, Texas. As of about a year ago, I'm an Eagle Scout. I've been involved in firearms heavily since I was about 14. My first three years of high school I entered science fair projects on various terminal ballistics topics. All three were very successful. An article I wrote when I was 16, based on research I did when I was 15, was published in the Guns & Ammo Book of the AK47 2010 edition when I was 17. Not too bad for a snot-nosed kid. My last project resulted in Rice University offering me $5000 to attend their engineering program.

A business class I took during the second semester of my junior year got me a position at a local gun store. After the class I ended up staying with the company through that summer, worked every Friday and Saturday of my senior year, and worked most of this summer. As of now, I'm "retired" and just doing a bit of vacationing before I move to Utah next week for college.

My classes are currently split between those of a mechanical engineering major and a business major. Mechanical engineering has been my intention for a while, but since my real dream is to own and operate my own gun store someday a degree in business may actually be more appropriate. I'm far enough ahead due to AP classes that I have the luxury of taking classes from both fields to see what I like.

I'm very long-winded and enjoy a heated discussion at times. Understandably, I can get quite irate with people who dismiss me due merely to my age while ignoring my credentials.

My goal for the rest of this year is to not flunk out of college (that's the priority), and to try to do a little more shooting. At work I was always the guy who would rather take it apart than shoot it.

I think I've run out of things to carry on about. This is a great forum, and it never ceases to amaze me how knowledgeable the average contributor here is. Lot higher class of people than you see on most forums.

Thanks.

Hello All,

I am Gibby. Nice to see a forum that is high on usefulness, and low on silliness. That is why I joined. Looking forward to learning, and hopefully some helping.

A friend was telling me about this site, so I came along to sign up and check it out. I don't know if he's registered here or just lurks.
Anyway, hello all. I already see a couple folks I know of from other sites.
I work on guns for a living, whether it's everyday repairs on a Remington shotgun, or building a custom rifle or shotgun, to building custom NFA weapons.
