Greetings
Joe from Topeka. I work at the local CBS affiliate here (dirty damned liberals). Trying to get AWAY from the dirty damned liberals... so if anyone needs a tech geek/engineer... Got the wife hooked with a 12 gauge, graduated her to her very own .380, then whined until I got my Scary Black Rifle. Feel free to drop me a line - always looking to chat with fellow enthusiasts. |

I am in Olathe, KS (South | 159th area).
Jumping into the NFA stuff as I have purchased the following this month: - RDIAS - MAC11/9 - Suppressor - SBR DDLES 9mm This is to the other toys. I frequent OMB Guns on a regular basis; just learned about Centerfire. Excited about Hillsdale to shoot outside. If anyone wants to shoot - hit me up! Thanks, Mike |

I've recently gotten into reloading and picked up my first AR-15, I'm working on building my second right now! |

Scott from Kansas Checking in...
Live just north of Maize KS and work in aircraft in Wichita. I spend weekends at my ranch in Greenwood county (20 Miles NE of Eureka), I have 380 acres for hunting, fishing, and shooting. I am just starting to build my first black guns, I have 10 80% lowers, and close to enough parts to complete them. I am planning on building several different caliber guns for me and one 5.56 for each of my 5 family members. I would like to meet with someone locally who has build ARs from 80% lowers, so hit me up if your interested. I'd be willing to swap parts and tech. Thanks! |

Jeff - once Hillsdale opens up I plan on being there a bunch as well. Currently I am bouncing between OMB and Centerfire. I plan on ending my OMB Membership and picking up Centerfire due to the reloading situation. I just purchased a Dillon XL650 with a bunch of extras, calibers for 9mm/.223. While I am also some-what new to the reloading scene, I have spent a bunch of time at the reloading section of this forum and other sites. Hit me up if you have any questions - will be happy to try and help!

Hello folks. Keith here from Wichita. I'm originally from Boston, MA and have been here for 11 years. Everyone is always surprised when they find out that I'm a gun enthusiast given where I'm from. I am currently working on my first AR build, though I do own a couple of factory AR's, AK's and a SCAR. I've shot at Aftthens, Cheney, Bulls Eye, Bullet Stop and a friend's private land. I'm always looking for new places to put ammo down range.

Hi all, I have somewhat of an odd nickname that came about as a joke. My name is Mark, I moved into Lawrence about 2 & 1/2 years ago after living in the country for 17 years. I really miss living in the country. I am a retired teacher (31 years). Have been a member on here since 2008. I belong to The Gun Guys range in Ottawa, KS, & go shooting about twice a week, if my health permits it. I started shooting 50 years ago this year, and started doing hobby gunsmithing about 40 years ago. I had a shop built in the country and was about ready to open my own shop, when a series of heart attacks changed all that. Now I just tinker around.
Thanks, Mark |
