Born in Fairbanks......unfortunatly I now live on the east coast. I am a retired Navy submariner. Now building ........you guessed it submarines (the new Virginia class).
Really would like to move back. Grew up in Delta Jct. Have family in Palmer/Talkeetna. Problem is finding a job that will support a mortgage. |

Just checking in here. First post on Arfcom despite lurking for a hell of a long time. I'm just a really bored guy in north pole really. If you ever see a somewhat chubby guy at the cushman range in a hot licks t shirt, come say hi. I'll probably be arguing with my rifle anyhow.

I haven't had the chance to read all the members posts from Alaska, but I wanted to throw my name in the hat just the same. Trust me, I will get around to reading all the posts and look forward to finding folks that live near me.
In a nutshell I have lived in AK for all my life, minus the first couple ones and a few in my 20s. I live in South Central, but far away from Anchorage or the Valley. I am fairly new to "real" gun ownership. What I mean is that I have always owned firearems, but lately I have taken much more responsible role in how I deal and interact with them, the community and the nation-wide scene (NRA). Like most Alaskans I own a couple .44s and other bear guns (.45-70, 30.06 and the trusty 870 loaded with buck and slugs). However, in the past few years my interest has really turned to tactical and defense style weaponary. I suppose a lot of this has to do with the fact that a couple years ago my wife and I had our first kid...a beautiful daughter. Just like the wife's "nesting" instinct kicked in, so did my "protection" instinct. It wasn't long after her birth that I bought my first 1911 and have since acquired quiite the collection of handguns for CCW, AR15s and a very defensive minded shotgun. Because of this collection, I have started to read up on 3-gun compettions and was wondering if anyone knew of any in our state...I am sure there are some out there it is just a matter of finding them. Like I said earlier, when I get the time I will try and find others in my area and when I get more confident and comfortable with this site and the forum style (both new to me), I will let out more on myself, my beliefs and most interestingly- my collection

You gotta love the ratio of State population to US Armed Forces members, enough cannot be said to thank these women and men and I am proud of the fact that so many of them stationed here end up as citizens after their commtment is up. Also, I read a couple posts mentioning Steve McDaniel at Alaska Tactical and Security. This man embodies what an educated and dedicated firearms instructor / vendor should be. Do yourself a favor and stop by his shop on Muldoon and I dare you to not come away impressed and a few $$$ lighter (the man only sells top of the line and you can ALWAYS find something you need there). Better yet, sign up for one of his many classes- you aren't gonna find a better instructor. See ya at the range or in the backcountry...I'll be packing something

Jerrod, 28 workign building my 3rd BR, first was a DPMS sweet 16, store bought, second was a 5.45 s&w upper on a cav arms lower(first lower build i ever did), and my third is going to be a SHTF rifle in 5.56 with doo dads and gizmos hanging off it. the wife currently shoots an AK47(made fun of the 5.56 cuz it wouldnt be useful in taking a moose at 100 yards, "ill use my .30-06"), and i keep trying to get her to get an ar in 7.62 but she wont...
live in anchorage, work for uncle sam, went to UAF way back when (2000-2006) and knew i wasnt leaving, been in anchorage since 2008. trying to get to more IDPA events they are pretty fun, but i feel like the poor kid with my ruger, |

My name is Tim, and hello to everyone again. Re-joined as osofast recently, figured my old account was expired or something as it had been a few years. However was cleaning a bunch of old files, found my old log-in and password, gave it a shot and all be damned it worked.
Moved back to AK almost a year ago now, got my toys out of storage and BRD is back in force 10 times than it was before. Anyways it's been a long time so I'll do a brief summary. Live here in Juneau, got a wife, 2 boys (4yrs old and 8 mos old) A few AR's built, and a few more in progress. Always open to do some shooting, and looking for a new hunting partner for upcoming years. Pleasure to be back. |

I bought my first mini on 9-11 figured it was time to buy something to defend our well being as a state and country. I have said for years I didn't want an ar platform but if ruger ever came up with 1 I would buy it. Well guess what it's that time I am the proud owner of a 556 and some fresh ammo it's time to go shoot.
