By the time you graduated from the IL academy, Boomer, I had been contributing long-term live-ins to the Colorado Department of Corrections, Collections, and Insurrections for a bunch of years! Congrats on your Anniversary! Hard to believe so many years/memories ago. *NM*
AND, 17 years of "Corrections" time, I was a State Licensed firearms instructor. WAY before Glock, Sig Sauer, and Tarus(SP?). *NM*
Congrats, Boomer! Lots of water under the bridge since then, eh? *NM*
