I couldn't find a New Members forum.
Just wanted to say hi. I was referred to this forum from a thread on Glock Talk.
Folks know me as Hack. I'm known as Hack for two reasons:
1- I was run over by a 77 yr old man on Oct 9, 2003. I was on my Harley Low Rider at the time. He ran a red light. As a result of the collision, I lost my right leg above the knee. It was "hacked" off.
2- and now, I ride a Harley with a sidecar (a "hack").
I still hunt and fish, just not as much as before.
I like to reload for the guns I own (use a Hornady LnL Progessive press):
Ruger LCP .380,
Kel-Tec PF9 9mm
GLock 27 (have .40SW and 9mm barrels for it),
Springfield 1911 A1, .45 ACP
Ruger Super Blackhawk .44 mag,
Ruger M77 30.06,
Winchester 30-30 and
Marlin 1895 45/70.
Former paratrooper of 82d Airborne, 2/505.
Retired from teaching high school science - 30 years.
I'm looking forward to enjoying this forum.

Hack, welcome! Now tell the truth, which was scarier? Jumping out of airplanes or teaching high school?

Welcome Hack,
The beer is cold, the conversation good, the stump is comfortable and the time flys by when we are having fun!! Vince always has the tap open and Bushy keeps the fire going.
I am a 28 year disabled vet, love the motors, and enjoy my collection of firearms.
Welcome aboard!!
