Hi!

Postby dday » Thu Apr 13, 2006 6:39 am

Hello to all. I'm new here. I've read the forums for a couple of weeks now and have the feeling that there's a lot of knowledge and comraderie here.

My first "PC" was a Timex Sinclair and I've had everything since from a Vic 20 to my current machine, an Athlon XP running at 2.2ghz. I was my former employers "PC tech" when an internal harddrive was a big brick that held 5 or 10 MB and you were special if you had 4 MB of memory to allow yourself to run Symphony.....any of this stuff ringing a bell???

Glad to be on board. I read the forums at lunch, but have to logon at home to see the pictures. My current employer is a large financial institution that's afraid I might see something "bad" so security's pretty tight. My current work desktop is a Dell GX260 2.2ghz 1gb ram. Not bad.

My other hobbies are guns, building things and I'm about to be the proud owner of a HD Sportster..........

Enough for now.

Dave

Welcome to the forums! Glad to have you on board.

I'm not sure you are into handguns, but a buddy of mine brought over his latest gun and I can't figure out what it is... I believe it's a 9mm P226, but it's threaded and I can't find it on the sig site!

Update: I think it's the Sig P226R Limited Edition tactical pistol (only 400 made)

Be sure to post pics of the HD when it arrives!

Hey, I do go hunting.....deer.

As soon as I figure out how to upload a picture to an online photo album, I'll post one of my latest purchase...... a Kimber .45.

Thanks for the welcome.

How do you like that Kimber .45? I've never shot a Kimber before. I got to shoot a sig sauer X-Five the other day and fell in love with that gun.

Well, if I could ever get a picture link to stay visible long enough for you to see it, you'd see how pretty it is. It fits my hand perfect but it's a target , and I'm not real fond of the rear adjustable sight, since I like to carry my pistols concealed.

Sigs are great guns, just normally that's a Caddy gun when I have a Yugo budget/ :(
