Hello,

 

My name is Bob T and I just joined the forum today.  I have been shooting one type of gun or another most of my life.  I was in the NRA Junior program in my teens.  Almost made Distinguished....missed it by 1 target before the place where we shot burned down.

I recently started shooting pistols. I currently have 3, a Glock 17, Buckmark DXL .22 and the newest a Dan Wesson Model 15 which I got 2 weeks ago.  I am psyched to get it to the range.  I can appreciate a well made firearm, and this is truly a well made gun.   Serial number is in the 171000 range, so Im thinking it's in the late 70's to early 80's.  I will post some pix of it once I get those done, and would appreciate thoughts on the age.

I'm looking forward to participating in this forum.

Thanks,

Welcome to DWF. I think sounds like you have a 15-2 made in 1978.

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

Welcome to the forum from south central PA!  What part of the state are you in? 

Thanks for the intro.

Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

Hello and Welcome.  Where in PA?  I'm in the Harrisburg Area.  

“We cannot but pity the boy who has never fired a gun; he is no more
humane, while his education has been sadly neglected.”

-Henry David Thoreau

“When some of my friends have asked me anxiously about their boys, whether
they should let them hunt, I have answered, yes – remembering that it was
one of the best parts of my education – *make* them hunters.”

-Henry David Thoreau
