Don't know if there are any others from down this way- alot of DOC officers around- I live in Penrose, (work in Colorado Springs in technical field), have been here for about 10 years- raised in Alaska, where I developed a respect (and dependance) on guns.. had a competitive shooting team at my high school (they had just changed from .22LRs to German .177 cal air rifles at that time, but can't recall the name)
always carried a Mossberg pump-action 12-gauge when in bear country, from the age of 12..
have just recently really began taking an interest again... don't have to go far to target shoot, live on 47 acres- several in the neighborhood have ranges on their property, and we're just south of the Ft. Carson range (get F16s every few days overhead at high speed, and can hear/see all kinds of other hardware at times)
I've taken an interest in the AR because of the versatility, but don't own one yet- would like to eventually have a 5.56, .308, and .50BMG versions- wasn't aware until recently that they had so many options.. also have interest in 1911s, and tactical shotguns (really like the Saiga-12, seems like a good use of the AK receiver to me)
