Let me take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Al (ABC3) & I'm in Gainesville, GA. I'm mostly a 1911 guy but have more guns than my wife knows about.

We run a small leather shop handcrafting concealment holsters & gun belts (although we have had to put the holster part of the business, on the back burner, for a while). We can barely keep up with the belt side of the business, at times.

My wife (Gail) runs the office and David along with myself work the leather side of the business.

We have one son who is a DEA Federal Agent & my biggest shooting buddy.

I normally lurk around the 1911 forum, the Defensive Carry and the Georgia Packing forums. But due to the recommendation of one of your forum members (Riverusmc) I was please to be accepted to COTEP.

Anyway, I'm glad to be a part of the forum & hope to contribute a little as well as learn from some of the more qualified shooters.

If we can help, in anyway, just let us know.

Al
