Cross-posted from the Fall LAN Party thread:

I'm not stopping the Brineygate count because we've only got one gun, but it's a start!

Tell us about it, Briney. What kind of scope did you throw on it? Did you buy it as a complete package, or did you build it? Where'd you get it from? Where are you shooting it?

Hi all,

Long time, I like to see that all of you are still on here. Also I like to see that X is still holding out for Battlefield Earth, didn't he lose the original footage or something...

I just recently moved down to Kalamazoo with the misses, and I was wondering what everyone was up to. Yup, I got married in March, don't feel bad for no invites, we got married on the beach in Puerto Rico. I did a bit of reading, X congrats, glad to see your happy, I can't wait to hear from everyone else and to read some more of what I missed.

By the way, for this post, I have the following:

an off-brand 12-guage pump, nothing special,
a Marlin .22 ducks unlimited edition with scope, got it real cheap,
a Remmington Mark III .22 Target Pistol, stainless, and
.40 cal HK USP compact, always loaded correctly...

I will not hold out on pics like others, but sadly for a day or two I must, my friend is borrowing my digital.

That is all for now,

pez

Shizza! It's good to see you! We were just talking about you at the LAN on Saturday!

I hope marriage is treating you well. I think Wes is the only holdout at this point, and I don't see that changing any time soon. ;p

What brings you back to Kalamazoo? Are you teaching at Western? We'll definitely have to plan a gathering of geeks in the near future!

I've got a Ruger Mark I (the much-older brother of the Mark III) in a bull-barrel target configuration, and it's an incredibly fun gun to shoot. It's my favorite pistol to use to teach new shooters. It's incredibly accurate and has absolutely no recoil, which makes it popular with new shooters and the ladies.

Come to think of it, I should probably drag it out and oil it up.

A good friend of mine has a full-size H&K USP in .45. It's a fun gun to shoot. I've been thinking about picking up a full-size USP in .40S&W as a secondary carry gun, but it's going to have to wait until I finally pull the trigger (ba dum cha!) on my dream gun:

I am thoroughly convinced there is no sexier gun than the Dragunov.

Haha, I meant Ruger Mark III, I must have been confused with the shotty talk. I wish mine had the 7.25" barrel, that would be sweet.

We should get together and shoot some things apparently, it will be an all out assault on whatever targets are around. I don't really know of anywhere to shoot here, I will have to join a gun club or something.

My brother-in-law is going to western and I have a good friend that recently moved down here, so this is where we choose to live. I am not teaching anymore, I have been teaching Pre-calc, Calc I, II, and Linear Algebra for 5 years, I am sort of burned out on school and academic research. I actually recently skipped out on a PhD studying parallel optimization to start my own gardening business. Things are really going well so far with the gardening business, we will see how the future turns out though.

Anyways, I am off to bed finally, hopefully pics tomorrow of the hardware... my buddy will drop the digi off when he is done.
