Upgrade
I've received my 1911 back after upgrading the thumb safety to a Ed Brown wide ambidextrous safety. I've also added the blackhawk level II serpa holster to the package. Now the firearm is fully functional for a left handed firer.

Can't wait!
Since we moved the family to Oregon my job has become less than promised. I now have to stay away from home for a month at a time. I really hate being away from my family and I know they feel it to. I can't wait till I can sever the ties the keep me with swift and can find something more local. I do usually get the chance to go shooting with my father during my home stays, I again can't wait till Annika and Keagan are old enough to join us on the range and in the field. Something tells me that when I'm able to be home more often I'll be able to bring them with me to familiarize them with pellets shortly after.

Just an Update
Today was the 3rd annual ECSA machine gun shoot! I worked the 9 to 11 am range safety officer shift with my father and at least a dozen other members putting on the event. The amount of ammo and sheer value of these firearms are awe inspiring. It's amusing to watch the guy with the muzzle loading cannon with 3 lbs ball getting better groups than these full auto rifles, but accuracy wasn't the prime concern today. We had a really good time. The exploding targets were nice but nobody really went for them till the suppressed fire began! I got a chance to day to also update this site and post some new pictures of both the shoot and my new pieces in my collection. I'm going with a slide show format to reduce space but I'll keep the slides relevant to each other to keep them from becoming to long. That's about it for now, keep checking back for future updates.
