Hello everyone! I'm a 59 year old new gun owner and gun rights convert! I served in the Air Force from 1975 to 1981 but had never personally owned a firearm until now. I just purchased a Glock 22 gen 3 (new of course). It wasn't my first choice but The gen 4 Glock 19 is so hard to find these days. I'm signed up for the NRA basic pistol course and yes I'm a new member in the NRA too! All this talk of "bans" inspired me to re-examine the debate and this is the result. I'm solid in the gun rights camp but go easy on me on other issues of religion and politics please! I'm also new to forums in general. I'm still not comfortable with all the gadgets and features. I'll try to be a quick learner though.
