I've been involved in hunting, amateur smithing, reloading and target shooting for many years. I'll simply say I'm now a "senior" citizen. Having a strong mechanical sense, I've always enjoyed learning how firearms (or anything else) work. I really don't do that much trading anymore but once in a while I do run across something that needs a little love. Learning and tinkering is what keeps my mind occupied these days. I'm here to read and learn. If I can contribute something useful, I will do so.

Welcome to Ruger Forum. Thanks for the quick introduction.
 
I used to work in Oshkosh. I was an Asset Protection Manager at Walmart long ago. Back then, I lived in Menasha. Now I'm a semi-retired hobby farmer up here.

Thank you. I hope you're able to cope successfully with the firearm related "hurdles" in your state.
 
Yes, in CA, it is very challenging for sure. We have some of the worst politicians in the world here. Those weirdos are pretty much all mostly fruits and nuts....Again, Welcome to the Forum. I think you will enjoy it here....
 
Thanks. I did post a magazine comparison related to the LCP Max last shot hold open issue. It's over in the Pistol forum.
 
Welcome. My daughter and family live just north of Milwaukee. She has been trying to get me to retire and move, but WI politics seem to be on a downward spiral. What general area are you in?

I'm in East Central area. I agree with your politics comment.
 
Thanks MaxMan. Since I made this original post a while back, I have given some input. One related to LCP Max and my investigation into the "last round hold open" annoyance. The other was (apparently) an uneducated stupid / ignorant question regarding carrying decocking the LCP Max. Some in the community were "less than kind" in their responses. I'm no expert (on anything really) so that's why I asked the question.
