A true milestone after CHL

#1

Post by tomdavis »

A month or so ago I received my CHL after completing the application using the advice in many of your posts. I had to wait about 30 days--that was great. All has gone well with my initial carries. TODAY'S NEWS:: Another significant milestone was reached yesterday when I graduated from Junior Member to full Member here on this Forum. I pass on that bit of worthless news with a thank you to the many members who provided advice to me and others that helped me have a much more confident journey into the CHL world. Thank you! :patriot:
PS: My wife asks that you NOT talk about your new toys or better toys.
...for as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom – for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself. Arbroath, 4/6/1320.

You know it is a forum requirement that you purchase another gun when you reach 100 posts, right? Then it is another gun for every 400 posts thereafter!

You can apologize to your wife, but let her know those are the rules!


:lol:


That means I've been forced to buy a dozen guns since joining the forum. :coolgleamA: :smilelol5:

I think I'm a little (way) behind.
I am not and have never been a LEO. My avatar is in honor of my friend, Dallas Police Sargent Michael Smith, who was murdered along with four other officers in Dallas on 7.7.2016.

I am way behind and according to my wife trying to catch up could be detrimental to my well being.
