thanks for the welcome. Read the 10 things non gun people think --very good. Liking the threads about LEO contacts. Since getting permitted I have experienced a marked change in my driving behaviour. I wasn't bad before
( well, depending upon how far back "before" indicates) but now I notice I am particularly making effort to blend in ....a nice bit of icing for my cake  Nobody mentioned this behavioural adaptation to me in class or at the range. Can't be I'm the only one though can it? Hey! Think I'll do a thread about this. Yahooty

Welcome, Tanner.
No, you're not alone. Understanding the potential consequences that exist when it comes to actual application of deadly force, in any form, should permanently make you more aware of everything around you. If you're familiar with LTC (Ret) Jeff Cooper's Color Codes, you should strive always to be at "Condition Yellow" — not keyed, not on edge, just alert and aware. It would have been a good topic to have been discussed in your class. I've seen statistics - don't know where right now, that show that CCW'ers are significantly less likely to be involved in confrontational situations than the general public. That's no surprise to those of us who do CCW. I love Ft. Bragg. I've only been there a few times, abalone diving once when I was a student at HSU. The really fresh stuff is sooo much better than what you get in restaurants! My non-diving wife freaked out when there were a couple gray whales playing a couple hundred feet further out from where we were diving.

Welcome Tanner. Fort Bragg is our northern home. We also have a camp on the Noyo. Um, shrimp wontons at Captn Flints. If you don't already shoot with the Redwood Practical shooters, you need to check them out. Pretty much all CCW holders. Great bunch of guys.
Redwood Practical Shooters of Fort Bragg California so what's your ride? 03 Valkyrie and 06 VTX1800N1 here. Last edited by 9x45 : 11-07-2009 at 07:14 AM.

Welcome !!!
CCW holders always comment on a whole new level of being aware. Condition Yellow (and the others) were talked about and part of our class instruction. How long have you had your CCW? Did you get the Nacho's?....

My real good buddy in AZ just got the kinda' turquoise, I guess, Valk and he's hooked! Always was into straight-line HP , 1/4 mile, turbo's but now he's into taking his wife and torque. He's still being teased by a bunch of us but he doesn't seem to mind. He's really tickled with the bike.You pretty much custom order the 18? So many looks for that bike. Pretty amazing how they met that market and make so many different ways to go with just one really good base bike and then let everybody do their own thing from there. You got plenty of ground clearance to ride across hwy 20 and have a cup?Quote:

When you get your CCW, the tradition is to visit Wal Mart, take a walk around as it supposed to be new to you and buy a plate of Nacho's.
If they have ammo, you should pick up a box or two. Since your new and you've had a CCW for a few months, you can still poison your body with Nacho's as a right of passage.  Others will chime in with some Nacho stories. Again, welcome and congrats on the CCW.
