Welcome. I'm sure there's a story behind the handle you are used and my curiosity is peaked.

Mississippi; eh? What part? I used to drive through MS a LOT for Uncle Sam - mostly down Hwy 55 until Jackson (I think it was Jackson where I changed roads) - to get to Biloxi. In 1994 & 95 Biloxi was my second home.

So, other than being from MS and now living in Thornton, tell us a bit about yourself. Obviously, you like guns (with at least a passing interest in AR's)....

My name is Ben Dodd III, family used to call me b3 to eliminate 3 guys answering at once, and most login/usernames won't let you do 2 character names, so I added in the 2 d's from the end of my last name. Hehe probably not as interesting as you had suspected.

Kosciusko, it's right off 55 about an hour North of Jackson.

Grew up in MS, nothing much to do there besides hunt and fish, so I did. Served 5 years with the Marines as an Avionics Tech on F/A-18's. Been oilfield trash since I got out, currently working as a Directional Driller for Schlumberger and got transferred from the field to our office here in Denver (Commerce City). Work alot (i.e. 12 hrs/day 7days/week for 4 weeks) and since the family and I are new to the area we pretty much shut-in on days off (i.e. 2 weeks out of every 6). Looking for a local range to start visiting on a regular basis, also enjoy shooting clays (i.e trap & skeet, sporting clays).
