Hey everybody, just checking in to say hello.

I recently arrived and plan to be in the Portland area for work for a while and am trying to get used to letting other people pump my gas.
Oregon is great so far, but of course I miss my AZHTF chums. If there's an Oregon HTF meet & greet coming up maybe I can meet some of you guys and say hello in person.
Work for me consists mainly of welding, and interests outside of work (besides firearms) include tattoos, movies and sailing. If any of you would like an extra hand sailing, I'd be glad to get some more experience on the water. I've taken a few of the ASA classes so I've a bit of expererience but would like more.

Is that enough for an intro? Questions or comments, feel free to chime in.

Here's a pic of me shooting my Mini-Draco SBR...


Heads up to any MP5/MP5 clone owners, I was just in Aloha Surplus and they have a factory HK MP5 mag for sale for $42.50. They had four but that was before I arrived. Anyway it isn't in the best of condition, (may have been used by a SEAL to stir his campfire a few times?) but a scrubbing and refinish would make it worthwhile.

Welcome, haven't seen to many meet and greets lately, ammo is killing us.   I don't even know if I am going to do the Albany machine gun shoot, can't replace the ammo that goes down range. If you are ever in the Molalla area, stop at wild bills guns, they have a good selection.

It is a brave man who shoots a Draco after dark. I am surprised you still have your vision intact!

Welcome to Oregon, hope you enjoy your stay.

Does this welding you are doing happen to be for/at Intel? Gobs of construction people coming into this area for work there. They must have just about every dump truck in the tri-county area hauling for them now.

Hey guys thanks for all the great replies. As far as the Mini Draco's fire breathing, it's not as bad as it looks but way more fun!

Your interests should include long walks on the beach. We do have a nice coast line...

Out of the closet maybe. Gay millionaire Hollywood Playboy.


Oh,
And hi new guy. If you are around Multnomah Village, I'm down for some beer.
I like long walks on the beach and Draco SBRs.

Here's mine.

Whoa, nice choice of stock on that Draco, coctailer, not to be a one-upper, but I've got a stock like that too
RPD shorty:


Thanks for the welcome guys!

ETA: Mine is the nearest one (with the PWS) in the photo, the others are full autos that belong to my friend Tim.

A coworker recommended that I check out Seaside for the weekend and I can solidly affirm that Lewis and Clark had a pretty kickass view at the end of their trail.
