Hey everyone my name is Thomas and I'm one of the new kids on the Colorado block. I recently moved here from Honolulu due to a work transfer. I grew up in Washington state and am an avid hunter, fisherman, and shooter. I served in the Marine Corps as an infantryman several years back and have been in the world of IT since. A buddy of mine recently introduced me to the world of 3-gun and now I am addicted and looking to start competing when I can get a set up. Shootz hit me up!

Welcome

Check out the Shooting Events and Training forum. Plenty of matches of all types to keep a guy busy and broke.

SamuraiCO, I think I know what you're talking about and nope I don't smoke the wacky tabacky. There are more comments I could make but I'll keep those to myself.

mcjhr, what part of islands you from?

I like Colorado a lot so far, it kinda reminds me of Western WA a little bit...I grew up right next to the mountains. Anyway, I'm looking forward to meeting new people and shooting some matches. As far as civilian matches go I used to shoot a lot of trap competitively but never any rifle or pistol matches. As far as the Marine Corps was concerned, I never did any service matches but our qualification range had us shooting at 200, 300, and 500 meters with the M16A2. We would also do a lot of competitions locally just to keep the training interesting.

I lived on Kauai in Hanamaulu, and on Oahu in Ewa Beach before I moved back here.

Welcome. I'm from California and miss the ocean all the time. Especially the weather in So Cal. But can't deal with the taxes or liberals there anymore.

Ahh okay. I used to live in Kapahulu. Like 2 blocks from the zoo. My grandparents are in Aina Haina.
