Martial arts at 9. Shooting since I was 14. Starting at 18 I had jobs as a uniformed guard for concert/ events, and later for private communities and businesses. Finally in my 20's I had joined the Navy and served in the Afghanistan theater, driving ships loaded with Marines. After that I've had all sorts of other jobs, construction, 7-11 clerk, phone base customer service and photography.
When it comes to personal carry, I like my 3 inch .357. I guess I'm a bit of an oddball since most guys my age like auto loaders. I've always shot well with that caliber and I go with the reputation of it's stopping power given by the LEO's of my childhood. All the other defensive calibers are good and I have a .45acp handy but I keep coming back to the .357.

Shooting, Camping, Martial Arts.
