Welcome from VA. I bought the 22... Then the 357 Carbine. I have resisted adding the other on my wish list as my safes are pretty much full. Well, pretty much. ;) Luckily my wife shoots, so I can point at some of my guns, and "call" them hers. :D

Jump right in, post up. Share, ask questions, we like pictures. :D It's a family, so we might start picking on you, but... it would only be in good fun. Nothin' mean. That's what family does. :P

I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.

I've been known to frequent the Wyoming territory on occasion. Cody, Big Piney, Pinedale, Bondurant, Salt River Range etc.
I like that country.
